Trial summary

The purpose of this research study is to understand how type 1 diabetes (T1D) increases the risk for cardiovascular diseases (heart attack and stroke). To this end, the investigators will compare apolipoprotein and triglyceride kinetics in people wtih T1D and healthy control participants. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Apolipoprotein C3-loading of Apolipoprotein B100 Lipoproteins and Cardiovascular Disease in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes

The purpose of this research study is to understand how type 1 diabetes (T1D) increases the risk for cardiovascular diseases (heart attack and stroke). To this end, the investigators will compare apolipoprotein and triglyceride kinetics in people wtih T1D and healthy control participants.

What is being measured

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

  1. Apolipoprotein C turnover rate

    Apolipoprotein C turnover rate will be assessed by using an intravenous stable isotope labeled amino acid infusion

    Measured: one time, at baseline (this is a cross-sectional, observational study, no intervention)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Triglyceride turnover rate

    Triglyceride turnover rate will be assessed by using an intravenous stable isotope labeled glycerol infusion

    Measured: one time, at baseline (this is a cross-sectional, observational study, no intervention)

  2. Apolipoprotein B-100 turnover rate

    Apolipoprotein B-100 turnover rate will be assessed by using an intravenous stable isotope labeled amino acid infusion

    Measured: one time, at baseline (this is a cross-sectional, observational study, no intervention)

  3. Apolipoprotein C concentration

    Apolipoprotein C concentration

    Measured: one time, at baseline (this is a cross-sectional, observational study, no intervention)

  4. Triglyceride concentration

    Triglyceride concentration

    Measured: one time, at baseline (this is a cross-sectional, observational study, no intervention)

  5. Apolipoprotein B-100 concentration

    Apolipoprotein B-100 concentration

    Measured: one time, at baseline (this is a cross-sectional, observational study, no intervention)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Metabolic testing in people with Type 1 Diabetes, run by University of Missouri-Columbia 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 13 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Feb 2026. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Amanda Heider ((573) 884-6852, ahmc4@health.missouri.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Apolipoprotein C turnover rate (time frame: one time, at baseline (this is a cross-sectional, observational study, no intervention)). 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 10 Feb 2026.
