About this study

Official title: CoYoT1 to California - Telemedicine to Engage Young Adults With Diabetes

CoYoT1 to California (CTC) was initiated to develop a patient-centered, home telehealth care model for young adults (YA) ages 16-25 with T1D. It is a 2x2 factorial design, 15-month intervention. Eighty participants will be randomized to Standard Care or CoYoT1 Care, which is delivered by telehealth or in-person. CoYoT1 Care is a patient-centered care model that consists of three major components: shared decision making (patient and provider agree upon priorities for the medical visit), autonomy and supportive care (provider training in communication strategies such as motivational interviewing), and goal setting and action planning (provider training to coach YA in setting SMART goals, developing action plans, and designing follow up plans). Additionally, didactic expert-led sessions (Standard Care) or peer-led, YA-driven group sessions (CoYoT1 Care) are included. At the end of the study, a focus group will be completed to assist in determining which features YA felt were critical to their success from the telehealth intervention, group components, and provider behaviors.

***COVID-19 Update: Due to current hospital and clinical policy adaptation for COVID-19, all participants who were randomized into in-person appointments will now receive care via Telehealth. Telehealth has been implemented hospital-wide and will be the temporary delivery of care method during this pandemic. Participants have been notified of this change and given instruction on how to participate in a Telehealth appointment.

What participants receive

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

  • CoYoT1 CareBehavioural

    Selected providers will be trained in the CoYoT1 Care protocol for completing medical appointments (both telehealth/standard appointments). There are three key components: (1) Shared decision making: Providers and YA will mutually agree on priorities for each medical visit using a shared decision making tool completed by both the provider and patient. (2) Autonomy supportive care: Providers will be trained in communication strategies, such as motivational interviewing, designed to support YA autonomy and intrinsic motivation. YA will also direct extent of eligible family involvement. (3) Goal setting and action planning: Providers will be trained to coach YA in setting SMART goals, developing action plans, and establishing a plan for follow-up between visits as appropriate.

  • Standard CareOther

    Providers selected for the Standard Care group will complete medical appointments in their usual manner, without specific training or guidelines regarding how to deliver care.

    NOTE: Per COVID-19 hospital policies, current clinic appointments consist of telehealth appointments.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CoYoT1 Care in people with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Children's Hospital Los Angeles at 1 site in United States.

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 6 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 15 Mar 2023. 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 United States. 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?

Number of participants with completed appointments in telemedicine cohort (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 9 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03793673, which also lists 29 linked publications.

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 15 Mar 2023.
