Anti-CD3 mAb Treatment of Recent Onset Type 1 Diabetes

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
Interventions
Drug: mAb hOKT3gamma1(Ala-Ala), Teplizumab
Drug: Placebo Arm
Registration Number
NCT00378508
Lead Sponsor
Yale University
Brief Summary

This is a randomized placebo controlled study to test whether a single 14 course of treatment with the anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody, hOKT3gamma1(Ala-Ala),Teplizumab will prevent the loss of insulin secretory capacity in individuals with Type 1 diabetes of 4 - 12 months duration since diagnosis.

Detailed Description

The study design is a double blind placebo controlled trial that will enroll subjects between the ages of 8 - 30 who have had the diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes made 4 - 12 months prior to enrollment. A single 14 course of treatment with mAb hOKT3gamma1(Ala-Ala), Teplizumab will be given. The primary endpoint is the C-peptide response to a mixed meal at 12 months. A total of 60 subjects will be enrolled (30 in the drug treatment and 30 in the placebo groups) at 4 study sites: Yale University,the University of California at San Francisco, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, and the Barbara Davis Diabetes Center.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
C-peptide Area Under the Curve (AUC) Response to a Mixed Meal Tolerance Test (MMTT) at 12 MonthsAt month 12 post-treatment

C-peptide secretory response was calculated as ln\[(Area Under the Curve of the C-peptide from the 240 minute MMTT/240 +1\]

For presentation, the C-peptide data were converted to the AUC as pmol/ml. This is adjusted for baseline.

C-peptide Area Under the Curve (AUC) Response to a Mixed Meal Tolerance Test (MMTT) at BaselineAt Baseline (before treatment)

C-peptide secretory response was calculated as ln\[(Area Under the Curve of the C-peptide from the 240 minute MMTT/240 +1\]

For presentation, the C-peptide data were converted to the AUC as pmol/ml. This baseline data was used to adjust for the C-peptide AUC primary endpoint measure at 12 months.
