About this study

Official title: Altered Faecal Microbiome and Metabolome in Childhood-onset Type 1 Diabetes, Adult-onset Type 1 Diabetes and Type 2 Diabetes

To elucidate the characteristics of global gut microbiota and fecal/serum metabolites in patients with childhood-onset type 1 diabetes, adult-onset type 1 diabetes or type 2 diabetes.

Read the detailed description

Type 1 diabetes is caused by autoimmune destruction of pancreatic beta cells, leading to severe insulin deficiency and requiring insulin therapy. It is typically considered a disease of childhood and adolescence, but recent epidemiological data have shown that over half of all new-onset type 1 diabetes cases occur in adults worldwide. There are genetic, immune and metabolic differences between adult- and childhood-onset type 1 diabetes, revealing the underlying molecular basis of type 1 diabetes onset at diverse ages may differ. Accurate diagnosis is of great importance because the best treatment for different types of diabetes is divergent. Misdiagnosing type 2 diabetes as type 1 diabetes can lead to unnecessary initial insulin therapy, resulting in higher costs and more side effects. Thus, it is critical to identify the molecular basis and new diagnostic biomarkers for adult-onset type 1 diabetes.

Nonetheless, environmental exposures, in particular the immense intestinal microbiota and its derivatives, have been widely investigated. Indeed, patients with childhood-onset type 1 diabetes or type 2 diabetes exhibit compositional alterations in gut microbiota. However, gut microbiota in adult-onset type 1 diabetes has not been elucidated, and little is known about the shared and distinct microbial characteristics in adult-onset type 1 diabetes versus childhood-onset type 1 diabetes or type 2 diabetes.

Thus, this study is a cross-sectional study. 4 groups of subjects were recruited for metagenome and metabolome analysis, including healthy controls and patients with childhood-onset type 1 diabetes, adult-onset type 1 diabetes or type 2 diabetes. All subjects recruited meet the inclusion or exclusion criteria and written informed consent was obtained from each participant at enrollment.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Differences of β diversity of gut microbiota between diabetic groups and healthy control.

    β diversity is based on metagenome analysis and statistical significance is estimated by permutational multivariate analysis of variance.

    Measured: at baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus Maturity Onset, run by Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jul 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Differences of β diversity of gut microbiota between diabetic groups and healthy control. (time frame: at baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05252728, which also lists 5 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
