AI summary: who the study is looking for
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 uses blood cell samples already stored in a biobank from adults with Type 1 Diabetes. No new visits or blood draws are done.
- Age
- 18 years or older at the time the sample was collected
- Sex
- All sexes
- Disease stage
- Documented diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes
Main reasons for not taking part
- Samples from people younger than 18 years at collection
- Other diseases that may interfere with the immune tests, in the investigator's judgment
- Not enough sample, poor sample quality, or missing key sample information

- Original description
Type 1 Diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which immune cells contribute to the destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells. This study investigates whether targeting glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1), a transporter involved in immune cell metabolism, may help modulate autoimmune responses associated with Type 1 Diabetes.Read full original descriptionShow less
Targeting GLUT1 to Control Autoimmunity in Type 1 Diabetes
Type 1 Diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which immune cells contribute to the destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells. This study investigates whether targeting glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1), a transporter involved in immune cell metabolism, may help modulate autoimmune responses associated with Type 1 Diabetes.
The study uses previously collected and biobanked peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from individuals with Type 1 Diabetes. No additional visits, blood draws, or study-specific procedures will be performed on human participants.
Inclusion: PBMC samples obtained from adult subjects aged 18 years or older at the time of sample collection; Documented diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes; PBMC samples already collected and stored in the institutional Biobank of IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele; PBMC samples obtained from subjects who had previously provided written informed consent for the collection, storage, and research use of biological material and associated data.
Exclusion: Presence of relevant concomitant diseases or clinical conditions that, in the Investigator's judgment and based on available records, may interfere with the interpretation of immunological analyses or with the study objectives; PBMC samples obtained from subjects younger than 18 years at the time of sample collection; Insufficient sample availability, inadequate sample quality, or missing essential sample-related information preventing use of the PBMC sample for the planned research activities.
