Who can take part

AI summary

From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.

The trial is looking for people with type 1 diabetes, people with other forms of diabetes or autoimmune hormone disorders, and people without diabetes. A fourth group is having abdominal surgery with planned removal of pancreatic lymph nodes.

Age
From 1 year old. No upper limit is stated.
Sex
All sexes can join.
Disease stage
Type 1 diabetes: high blood sugar with insulin started within 6 months of the first symptoms, and/or at least one anti-islet auto-antibody.
Biomarker or test result
For type 1 diabetes: at least one anti-islet auto-antibody can be used instead of the insulin criterion.

Main reasons for not taking part

  • Pregnancy at the time of joining
  • Known HIV or HCV infection
  • No social security coverage
  • Placement under judicial protection
  • No signed informed consent

The registry criteria, word for word

Show all 5 criteriaShow less

Who can take part

  • Type 1 diabetes: type 1 diabetes, as defined by hyperglycemia and long-term insulin therapy started within 6 months from clinical onset; and/or the presence of at least one anti-islet auto-antibody
  • Other forms of diabetes or autoimmune endocrinopathy: other forms of diabetes (e.g. type 2, ketosis-prone, familial, secondary, immunotherapy-induced diabetes); and/or other autoimmune endocrinopathies, isolated or multiple
  • No diabetes: absence of diabetes or impaired glucose tolerance; absence of tumor, infectious or immune pathologies, or other conditions related to autoimmune or metabolic alterations that may bias the variables under study
  • Lymphadenectomy planned in the frame of an abdominal surgery: pancreatic lymphadenectomy planned at the occasion of an abdominal surgery for the treatment of an underlying condition

Who cannot take part

  • For all participants: ongoing pregnancy; known HIV/HCV infection; absence of social security coverage; placement under judicial protection; absence of signature of the informed study consent

About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

National multi-center non-interventional case-control cohort study with collection of biological samples to characterize the autoimmune T and B lymphocytes involved in the development of type 1 diabetes.

The 4 groups in the trial

  • Type 1 diabetes

    As defined by the presence of hyperglycemia and/or islet auto-antibodies.

    Treatment: Biosampling

  • Other forms of diabetes or autoimmune endocrinopathy

    Type 2 diabetes, ketosis-prone diabetes, familial diabetes, secondary diabetes, immunotherapy-induced diabetes; and/or autoimmune endocrinopathies.

    Treatment: Biosampling

  • No diabetes

    No diabetes or impaired glucose tolerance; no cancer, infectious or immune pathologies; no other condition related to autoimmune and metabolic alterations that may bias the variables under study.

    Treatment: Biosampling

  • Lymphadenectomy planned at the occasion of an abdominal surgery

    Patients undergoing a lymphadenectomy during surgery for the treatment of their underlying pathology.

    Treatment: Biosampling
