GPPAD-POInT (Global Platform of Autoimmune Diabetes - Primary Oral Insulin Trial)

Oral Insulin Therapy for Prevention of Autoimmune Diabetes

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 8 Oct 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The GPPAD-POInT Study is designed as a randomized, placebo-controlled, double blind, multicentre, multinational primary prevention phase IIb study aiming to induce immune tolerance to beta-cell autoantigens through regular exposure to oral insulin for a period of 29 to 32 months. The hypothesis is that regular exposure to oral insulin throughout the period in life where beta-cell autoimmunity usually initiates will tolerize against insulin and train the body's immune system to recognize the treatment product without reacting adversely to it in a manner seen in children who develop T1D. This immune tolerance induction therapy would reduce the likelihood of beta-cell autoimmunity. The study objective is to determine whether daily administration of oral insulin from age 4 months - 7 months until age 3.00 years to children with elevated genetic risk for type 1 diabetes reduces the cumulative incidence of beta-cell autoantibodies and diabetes in childhood.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Concomitant disease or treatment that may interfere with the assessments, as judged by the investigators.

Other illness

  • Any condition that could be associated with poor compliance.
  • Any medical condition or medical condition coexisting, which, in the opinion of the investigator, may jeopardize the participant's safe participation in the study.
  • Diagnosis of diabetes at the time of recruitment.

Other

  • Participation in another clinical trial.

Who the study is looking for

  • 1\. Infant between the ages of 4 months and 7 months at the time of randomization.
  • 2\. A high genetic risk (\>10%) to develop beta-cell autoantibodies by age 6 years:
  • For infants without a first degree family history of type 1 diabetes, high genetic risk is defined as a DR3/DR4-DQ8 or DR4-DQ8/DR4-DQ8 genotype, and a genetic risk score that is \>14.4.
  • For infants with a first degree family history of type 1 diabetes, high genetic risk is defined as having HLA DR4 and DQ8, and none of the following protective alleles: DRB1\*1501, DQB1\*0503.
  • Solid foods introduced into diet of infant
  • Written informed consent signed by the custodial parent(s).

Age in the registry: 4 months to 7 months · Sex: All · Accepts healthy volunteers
