Find out more about taking part in one of our studies

Find out more about taking part in an intervention treatment trial where you may receive a new treatment being tested for T1D. We also have information on monitoring trials where data is collected but there is no intervention/treatment and also information on screening for T1D. Screening studies are also available which can identify people who may be at risk of developing T1D

UK Islet Autoantibody Registry

The UKIAb Registry is a list of children, young people and adults who have markers in their blood (islet autoantibodies) that indicate they are at risk of developing type 1 diabetes (T1D).

ADDRESS 2

A research project for children and adults aged 1 or older and newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (within the last 6 months), to collect information about their diabetes, and inform them about other opportunities to take part in type 1 diabetes research. Siblings can help too.

ARAD – At Risk of Autoimmune Diabetes

The ARAD study is open to both adults and children who have previously tested positive for one or more islet autoantibody risk markers for developing type 1 diabetes in the future. The study offers follow-up monitoring of autoantibody markers using home collection sample kits.

Closed Trials

FABULINUS

Recruitment closed until further notice

The FABULINUS Study is testing an investigational study drug in people recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Our goal is to see if the investigational study drug can help people with T1D to better manage their glucose levels.
