Data and biological samples were collected by this consortium organizing international efforts to identify genes that determine an individual risk of type 1 diabetes. It originally focused on recruiting families with at least two siblings (brothers and/or sisters) who have type 1 diabetes (affected sibling pair or ASP families). The T1DGC completed enrollment for these families in August 2009. They completed enrollment of trios (father, mother, and a child with type 1 diabetes), as well as cases (people with type 1 diabetes) and controls (people with no history of type 1 diabetes) from populations with a low prevalence of this disease in January 2010. T1DGC Data and Samples: Phenotypic and genotypic data as well as biological samples (DNA, serum and plasma) for T1DGC participants have been deposited in the NIDDKCentral Repositories for future research.

Study that compared the outcomes of two minimally invasive surgical procedures to treat stress urinary incontinence in women. These procedures are called mid-urethral slings. The procedures insert a mesh sling or hammock to support the bladder neck so that urine does not leak. Both procedures have been approved by the FDA and have been shown to be safe and successful in treating stress urinary incontinence. However, it is not known if one is better than the other. This study answers that question. The secondary aims of the trial are to compare other outcomes for the two surgical procedures, including quality of life, sexual function, satisfaction with treatment outcomes, complications, and the need for other treatments(s) after surgery. Follow-up will be a minimum of two years. Stress urinary incontinence is the accidental leakage of urine during activities such as coughing, laughing, sneezing, or lifting heavy objects.

Multi-center, randomized controlled study designed to determine if continuing interferon long term over several years will suppress the Hepatitis C virus, prevent progression to cirrhosis, prevent liver cancer and reduce the need for liver transplantation. Patient enrollment began in 2000 and was completed in 2003 at 10 clinical centers, which were supported by a data coordinating center, virological testing center, and central sample repository. Patients with chronic hepatitis C and advanced fibrosis or cirrhosis on liver biopsy who failed to respond to a previous course of interferon alfa were enrolled in this study. Patients were initially treated with a 24-week course of peginterferon alfa-2a and ribavirin. Patients who remained hepatitis C virus RNA positive were then randomized to receive maintenance, low-dose peginterferon or to be followed on no treatment. Liver biopsies were done before enrollment and after 2 and 4 years of treatment or follow-up. The endpoints were development of cirrhosis, hepatic decompensation, hepatocellular carcinoma, death, or liver transplantation. 1050 patients were randomized and followed through the 4 year randomized phase of the trial and as long as 4 years off treatment. Serum samples collected at multiple time points, DNA and liver tissue are available for scientific investigation.

International consortium of six centers assembled to participate in the development and implementation of studies to identify infectious agents, dietary factors, or other environmental agents, including psychosocial factors, that trigger type 1 diabetes in genetically susceptible people. The coordinating centers recruit and enroll subjects, obtaining informed consent from parents prior to or shortly after birth, genetic and other types of samples from neonates and parents, and prospectively following selected neonates throughout childhood or until development of islet autoimmunity or T1DM. The study tracks child diet, illnesses, allergies and other life experiences. A blood sample is taken from children every 3 months for 4 years. After 4 years, children will be seen every 6 months until the age of 15 years. Children are tested for 3 different autoantibodies. The study will compare the life experiences and blood and stool tests of the children who get autoantibodies and diabetes with some of those children who do not get autoantibodies or diabetes. In this way the study hopes to find the triggers of T1DM in children with higher risk genes.

International network of researchers who are exploring ways to prevent, delay and reverse the progression of type 1 diabetes. It is conducting clinical trials with researchers from 18 Clinical Centers in the United States, Canada, Finland, United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Australia and New Zealand. In addition, more than 150 medical centers and physician offices are participating in the TrialNet network. Studies are available for people newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, as well as for relatives of people with type 1 diabetes who are at greater risk of developing the disease. This NIH-sponsored clinical trials network conducts studies designed to evaluate new approaches to prevent or ameliorate type 1 diabetes specifically by interdicting the type 1 diabetes disease process. These include interventions designed to decrease beta-cell destruction and/or enhance beta-cell survival. Studies are conducted in non-diabetic persons at risk of type 1 diabetes in an effort to delay the development of type 1 diabetes as a clinical disease; or (if initiated prior to appearance of autoimmunity) in an effort to delay the appearance of autoimmunity; or in individuals with type 1 diabetes who are either newly diagnosed or have evidence of sustained beta cell function. Studies include long-term follow-up of subjects developing type 1 diabetes. The TrialNet network also supports natural history and genetics studies in populations screened for or enrolled in studies conducted by the TrialNet study group. In addition, TrialNet will evaluate methodologies that enhance the conduct of clinical trials interdicting the type 1 diabetes disease process.

Collect, analyze, and communicate on comprehensive and current data on all islet/beta cell transplants in human recipients performed in North America, as well as some European and Australian centers to expedite progress and promote safety in islet/beta cell transplantation. This site serves as a repository for general information concerning protocols, clinical transplantation sites, publications, and other information of interest to the general community. Annual Reports are available. Islet/beta cell transplantation is a complex procedure with many factors contributing to the outcome. Compiling and analyzing data from all transplant centers in the US, Canada, as well as some European and Australian centers will accelerate the identification of both critical risk factors and key determinants of success and thereby guide transplant centers in developing and refining islet/beta cell transplant protocols. The inclusion of the term collaborative in the name of the Registry emphasizes the importance of collaboration in fulfilling the CITR mission and goals. Close collaboration with the transplant centers will ensure that relevant questions are addressed, that data submitted are accurate and complete, and that the needs of the transplant community are served. Information on how to participate as a CITR Transplant Center and to receive a transplant center application is available through the website. Progress in islet transplantation depends entirely on complete, high-quality medical data, including the information patients consented to report to the Collaborative Islet Transplant Registry. To make it as easy as possible to provide updated information about patient's health, an on-line questionnaire is available or patients can mail it to their transplant center. This information is very important in the continuing search for a cure for Type 1 diabetes.
