About this study

Official title: Celiac Disease and Diabetes Longitudinal Follow-up and Evaluation Study (CD-LiFE)

To the investigators' knowledge, no single long-term prospective observational study has assessed dietary factors, diabetes clinical variables (metabolic control and associated complications), and self -perceived health and wellness in T1D patients (both pediatric and adult) with CD identified by screening (positive/weakly positive serology). The aim of the current study is to observe the short- and long-term outcomes for Type 1 diabetic patients with new serology positive asymptomatic CD.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT03122093
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CD-DIET Gluten-Free Diet GroupThis former randomized control trial (RCT) group received a gluten-free education and continued support from a dietitian for a 1-year period via the CD-DIET Study (NCT01566110)
CD-DIET Gluten-Containing Diet GroupThis former RCT group did not receive a gluten-free education and 1-year support from a dietitian via the CD-DIET Study (NCT01566110), but rather a single gluten-free education session upon exiting the study.
CD-DIET Ineligibles/RefusalsThis group contains T1D/CD individuals who were not eligible or refused to join the CD-DIET RCT (e.g. already self-selected their diet or had no interest in being randomized). These individuals were instead redirected to the clinical route.

What is being measured

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

  1. Average Daily Gluten Intake

    This outcome will be measured through interview/assessment data.

    Measured: 2 Years

  2. Celiac Dietary Adherence

    This outcome will be measured through the Celiac Dietary Adherence test (CDAT) questionnaire.

    Measured: 2 Years

  3. TTG-IgA Serology

    This outcome will be measured through TTG-IgA serology testing for inflammatory markers for celiac disease.

    Measured: 2 Years

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Health-related Quality of Life

    This outcome will be measured through the self-reported Quality of Life (PedsQL) Inventory Generic Core Scale (V.4.0) with Diabetes Module (V.3.0).

    Measured: 2 Years

  2. Daily Activity Levels

    This outcome will be measured through the self-reported Habitual Activity Estimation Scale (HAES).

    Measured: 2 Years

  3. Self-Perceived Wellness

    This outcome will be measured through a self-reported Self-Perceived Wellness Scale.

    Measured: 2 Years

  4. Metabolic Control

    This outcome will be measured through self-reports and lab-provided HbA1c values.

    Measured: 2 years

  5. Kidney Function

    This outcome will be measured through lab-provided Albumin/Creatinine Ratios.

    Measured: 2 years

  6. Hypoglycemic episodes.

    The frequency and severity of hypoglycemic episodes will be recorded at each clinic visit via self-report.

    Measured: 2 years

  7. Presence of Type 1 Diabetes Complications

    This outcome will be measured by monitoring the occurence of T1D health outcomes and complications over time through long-term medical record review follow-up. Complications include, but are not limited to: nephropathy, retinopathy, and cardiovascular disease in the study population.

    Measured: 10 years

  8. Presence of Celiac Disease Complications

    This outcome will be measured by monitoring the occurence of celiac disease health outcomes and complications over time through long-term medical record review follow-up. Complications include, but are not limited to: osteoporosis and malnutrition in the study population.

    Measured: 10 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Celiac Disease and Celiac, run by The Hospital for Sick Children at 6 sites 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 4 inclusion and 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Mar 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Average Daily Gluten Intake (time frame: 2 Years). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 3 Mar 2021.
