Anti-CD3 mAb Treatment of Recent Onset Type 1 Diabetes
- Conditions
- Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
- Interventions
- Drug: mAb hOKT3gamma1(Ala-Ala), TeplizumabDrug: 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.

Group Intervention Description 1 mAb hOKT3gamma1(Ala-Ala), Teplizumab The course of Teplizumab comprises daily doses of 51 µg/m2, 103 µg/m2, 207 µg/m2, 413 µg/m2, and 10 of 826 µg/m2 over a 14 day treatment period. 2 Placebo Arm Normal saline infusion
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method C-peptide Area Under the Curve (AUC) Response to a Mixed Meal Tolerance Test (MMTT) at 12 Months At 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 Baseline At 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.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Baseline Hemoglobin A1c At baseline (before treatment) Hemoglobin A1c At 12 months post-treatment Average Insulin Use Over 12 Months After 12 months post-treatment Baseline Insulin Use At baseline (before treatment)
