http://www.t1diabetes.nih.gov/T1D-PTP/

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 22, 2016. Investigator access is provided to the established facilities and expertise needed to extend, enhance and validate preclinical studies of promising new therapeutics in cases where additional preclinical testing is needed to validate potential therapies under disease-specific conditions and in multiple animal models before therapeutics can enter the Type 1 Diabetes Rapid Access to Intervention Development (T1D-RAID) development pipeline. The T1D-RAID program provides resources for pre-clinical development of drugs, natural products, and biologics that will be tested as new therapeutics in type 1 diabetes clinical trials. The T1D-RAID program is not currently accepting applications. The T1D-PTP program currently supports two contracts, which are separate from each other and from the T1D-RAID NCI contract resources, to assist in preclinical development of therapeutics for T1D: * Agents to be tested for Preclinical Efficacy in Prevention or Reversal of Type 1 Diabetes in Rodent Models. Type 1 Diabetes Preclinical Testing Program (T1D-PTP) (NOT-DK-09-006) * Needs for Preclinical Efficacy Testing of Promising Agents to Prevent or Reverse Diabetic Complications (NOT-DK-09-009) The T1D-RAID and T1D-PTP are programs intended to remove the most common barriers to progress in identification and development of new therapies for Type 1 Diabetes. The common goal of these programs is to support and provide for the preclinical work necessary to obtain proof of principle establishing that a new molecule or novel approach will be a viable candidate for expanded clinical evaluation.

http://diabetes.niddk.nih.gov/dm/pubs/control/index.aspx

Clinical study that showed that keeping blood glucose levels as close to normal as possible slows the onset and progression of eye, kidney, and nerve diseases caused by diabetes. EDIC is a follow-up study of people who participated in DCCT. The DCCT involved 1,441 volunteers, ages 13 to 39, with type 1 diabetes and 29 medical centers in the United States and Canada. Volunteers had to have had diabetes for at least 1 year but no longer than 15 years. They also were required to have no, or only early signs of, diabetic eye disease. The study compared the effects of standard control of blood glucose versus intensive control on the complications of diabetes. Intensive control meant keeping hemoglobin A1C levels as close as possible to the normal value of 6 percent or less. The A1C blood test reflects a person''''s average blood glucose over the last 2 to 3 months. Volunteers were randomly assigned to each treatment group. DCCT Study Findings * Intensive blood glucose control reduces risk of ** eye disease: 76% reduced risk ** kidney disease: 50% reduced risk ** nerve disease: 60% reduced risk When the DCCT ended, researchers continued to study more than 90 percent of participants. The follow-up study, called Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications (EDIC), is assessing the incidence and predictors of cardiovascular disease events such as heart attack, stroke, or needed heart surgery, as well as diabetic complications related to the eye, kidney, and nerves. The EDIC study is also examining the impact of intensive control versus standard control on quality of life. Another objective is to look at the cost-effectiveness of intensive control. EDIC Study Findings * Intensive blood glucose control reduces risk of ** any cardiovascular disease event: 42% reduced risk ** nonfatal heart attack, stroke, or death from cardiovascular causes: 57% reduced risk
