Type 1 diabetes prevention may be possible in high-risk individuals. The Diabetes Prevention Trial Type 1 is investigating if insulin can alter the autoimmune process to delay or prevent disease onset.

Area of Science:

  • Immunology
  • Endocrinology
  • Clinical Trials

Background:

  • Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease.
  • Early intervention may alter disease progression.
  • High-risk individuals can be identified.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine if type 1 diabetes can be prevented.
  • To investigate insulin's role in altering autoimmunity.
  • To assess the feasibility of delaying clinical onset.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing insulin to modulate the autoimmune process.
  • Conducting clinical trials in high-risk populations.
  • Monitoring for delayed or prevented disease onset.

Main Results:
