General Population Level Estimation for Type 1 Diabetes Risk in Children During Routine Care Delivery

Study Purpose

In partnership with Helmsley Charitable Trust, the Sanford PLEDGE Study is a large-scale, observational, feasibility study of general population screening for T1D and celiac autoantibodies. Screening is incorporated into routine health care visits within an integrated health system.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms	Yes
Study Type An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.	Observational
Eligible Ages	0 Minutes - 17 Years
Gender	All

- Pediatric Entry: Children less than 6 years of age who receive their routine care at a Sanford facility and whose parents are able to provide IC.

- Adolescent Entry: Children, ages 9-16 years old, who receive their routine care at a Sanford facility and whose parents are able to provide IC.

Trial Details

Trial ID: This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.	NCT04477928
Phase Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.
Lead Sponsor The sponsor is the organization or person who oversees the clinical study and is responsible for analyzing the study data.	Sanford Health

Additional Details

Most children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) do not have a family member with diabetes and often are not diagnosed until the child is very sick. Research suggests that screening and identifying children at risk for T1D autoantibodies can prevent serious illness at the time of diagnosis and improve long-term health outcomes. The investigators will screen children, ages 0-5.99 or 9-16 years for blood markers related to T1D and celiac disease during routine healthcare delivery at birth, 1, 2 and 5 years, or once between 9 and 16 years of age. Children with confirmed autoantibodies will be offered participation in other monitoring or prevention trials (T1D), or referred to clinical care (celiac).
