THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on July 31,2025. Collect, store, and distribute genetic samples from cases and controls of type 1 diabetes and diabetic nephropathy for investigator-driven research into the genetic basis of diabetic nephropathy. As the risk of kidney complications in type 1 diabetes appears to have a considerable genetic component, this study assembled a large data resource for researchers attempting to identify causative genetic variants. The types of data collected allowed traditional case-control testing, a rapid and often powerful approach, and family-based analysis, a robust approach that is not influenced by population substructure.

Provides investigators with the opportunity to obtain on-demand biological samples from selected individuals that TrialNet has developed through the longitudinal monitoring of individuals at risk for the development of type 1 diabetes within the Natural History study. Exploratory research is encouraged under this initiative. Studies must use TrialNet screened subjects, and cannot interfere with ongoing clinical trials or studies. Investigators can select the clinical characteristics needed for their study as well as the sample type and collection frequency. Although many Living Biobank studies may be implemented through cost-sharing with the TrialNet network, special sample collections and visits outside of the normal visit schedules will incur additional costs which should be covered by the approved applicant. In addition, some studies may require effort from the TrialNet coordinating center, with costs covered by the approved ancillary study. Living biobank studies will be evaluated with careful consideration for their potential impact on the objectives and performance of the TrialNet Natural History study. To protect the interests of TrialNet, each living biobank study must be reviewed and approved by the Ancillary Studies Committee before its initiation. All approved living biobank studies will be reviewed yearly to evaluate their progress, and impact on TrialNet as a whole. TrialNet welcomes the submission of living biobank studies as an adjunct to ongoing protocols.
