Type 1 Diabetes TrialNet is an international network of researchers who are exploring ways to prevent and delay the progression of type 1 diabetes.
TrialNet is conducting clinical trials for people newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, as well as for relatives of people with type 1 diabetes who are at greater risk of developing the disease.
TrialNet also offers a screening test free of charge to relatives of people with type 1 diabetes. This test is capable of detecting the autoantibodies that signal an increased risk of the disease up to 10 years before symptoms appear. For those with a relative with type 1 diabetes, the chances of developing the disease are 15 times greater than for those with no family history.
Nearly 200 TrialNet locations nationwide offer screening and research studies. Screening test kits are also available by mail. To find a TrialNet location or to learn more, visit www.DiabetesTrialNet.org or call 1-800-425-8361.
