trailnet logo

A Pathway to Prevention

TrialNet is screening relatives of people with type 1 diabetes to find out if these family members are at risk for developing diabetes.

If you are sibling, children or parent of someone with type 1 diabetes who is 1 to 45 years of age or a cousin, uncle or aunt or grandchild who are 1 to 20 years, you may be screened.

 


What it will be required?

A simple blood test.

You will learn the results of your first blood test in 4-6 weeks.

If you learn you are at risk for developing type 1 diabetes, additional tests will be offered to estimate your chances of developing type 1 diabetes.

Study of Delay/Prevention of Type 1 Diabetes

Oral Insulin

TrialNet is studying whether oral insulin (insulin taken by mouth, not injection) helps to delay or prevent type 1 diabetes.
