What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Stage A Safety: Side effects reported for entire cohort

    To determine if there are unexpected adverse events with intra arterial delivery of sP into the celiac artery in individuals with Type 1 Diabetes, and evidence of residual beta cell function as reflected by a peak C---peptide levels of > 200 pmol/L. Multiple measurements per patient will be aggregated to arrive at one reported value: Number of participants with abnormal laboratory values, adverse events and/or peak C-peptide levels >200pmol/L that are related to treatment.

    Measured: Reported during the first 20-27 days following sP administration

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. C-Peptide Levels (small cohort)

    To determine in an initial small cohort (n=12, toxicity and dose finding cohort) if one or more sP doses significantly increases the basal or stimulated c---Peptide levels at Day 20---27 post---injection using data from Mixed Meal Tolerance Test (MMTT).

    Measured: Day 20-27 post sP injection

  2. C-Peptide Levels (large cohort)

    To assess in a larger cohort (n=40, continued safety and efficacy) whether sP dose, determined from the dose finding cohort, significantly increases basal or stimulated C-- peptide levels at Day 20---27 post sP---injection using MMTT data.

    Measured: Day 20-27 post sP injection

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Substance P in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1, run by Vanilloid Genetics Inc. at 1 site in Canada.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 May 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Holly Tschirhart (416-813-7654 ext. 204517, holly.tschirhart@sickkids.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Stage A Safety: Side effects reported for entire cohort (time frame: Reported during the first 20-27 days following sP administration). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 May 2020.
