Type 1 Diabetes Research Study

Researchers at Indiana University School of Medicine are conducting a study on the safety and tolerability of CNP-103 for individuals ages 12–35 with recent-onset type 1 diabetes.

Fast Facts

Diagnosed with type 1 diabetes within the last 6 months

Ages 12-35

Compensation

Conducted in

Indianapolis, Indiana

Study Background

Evaluating the safety and tolerability of CNP-103 in newly diagnosed type 1 diabetics.

This research study aims to learn how safe and tolerable CNP-103 is for people recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. CNP-103 is a biodegradable nanoparticle containing specialized cell proteins and an investigational drug that is not yet approved by the FDA for the treatment of type 1 diabetes. By participating, individuals help advance scientific understanding of potential new therapies for type 1 diabetes.

Participants who join this study will receive careful monitoring by a team of experienced medical professionals. The study includes screening, three infusions of the investigational drug, and several follow-up visits to assess safety, health, and changes in medical status. Safety measures include in-person check-ins, frequent communication, and a 24-hour contact line to respond to any concerns quickly.
