International network of researchers who are exploring ways to prevent, delay and reverse the progression of type 1 diabetes. It is conducting clinical trials with researchers from 18 Clinical Centers in the United States, Canada, Finland, United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Australia and New Zealand. In addition, more than 150 medical centers and physician offices are participating in the TrialNet network. Studies are available 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. This NIH-sponsored clinical trials network conducts studies designed to evaluate new approaches to prevent or ameliorate type 1 diabetes specifically by interdicting the type 1 diabetes disease process. These include interventions designed to decrease beta-cell destruction and/or enhance beta-cell survival. Studies are conducted in non-diabetic persons at risk of type 1 diabetes in an effort to delay the development of type 1 diabetes as a clinical disease; or (if initiated prior to appearance of autoimmunity) in an effort to delay the appearance of autoimmunity; or in individuals with type 1 diabetes who are either newly diagnosed or have evidence of sustained beta cell function. Studies include long-term follow-up of subjects developing type 1 diabetes. The TrialNet network also supports natural history and genetics studies in populations screened for or enrolled in studies conducted by the TrialNet study group. In addition, TrialNet will evaluate methodologies that enhance the conduct of clinical trials interdicting the type 1 diabetes disease process.

Collect, analyze, and communicate on comprehensive and current data on all islet/beta cell transplants in human recipients performed in North America, as well as some European and Australian centers to expedite progress and promote safety in islet/beta cell transplantation. This site serves as a repository for general information concerning protocols, clinical transplantation sites, publications, and other information of interest to the general community. Annual Reports are available. Islet/beta cell transplantation is a complex procedure with many factors contributing to the outcome. Compiling and analyzing data from all transplant centers in the US, Canada, as well as some European and Australian centers will accelerate the identification of both critical risk factors and key determinants of success and thereby guide transplant centers in developing and refining islet/beta cell transplant protocols. The inclusion of the term collaborative in the name of the Registry emphasizes the importance of collaboration in fulfilling the CITR mission and goals. Close collaboration with the transplant centers will ensure that relevant questions are addressed, that data submitted are accurate and complete, and that the needs of the transplant community are served. Information on how to participate as a CITR Transplant Center and to receive a transplant center application is available through the website. Progress in islet transplantation depends entirely on complete, high-quality medical data, including the information patients consented to report to the Collaborative Islet Transplant Registry. To make it as easy as possible to provide updated information about patient's health, an on-line questionnaire is available or patients can mail it to their transplant center. This information is very important in the continuing search for a cure for Type 1 diabetes.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on July 8, 2022. Consortium developing new technologies and methods to accelerate the development and review of medical products for neurodegenerative diseases. It is focused on accelerating drug development for patients with chronic neurodegenerative disease, namely, Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD), by advancing drug development tools for evaluating drug efficacy, conducting clinical trials, and streamlining the process of regulatory review. The consortium focuses on sharing precompetitive patient-level data from the control arms of legacy clinical trials, developing new tools to be submitted to the regulatory agencies, and developing consensus data standards. CAMD has the following areas of focus: (1) qualification of biomarkers, (2) development of common data standards, (3) creation of integrated databases for clinical trials data, and (4) development of quantitative model-based tools for drug development. Regulatory milestones include a qualification opinion with EMA for the use of low baseline hippocampal volume for patient enrichment in pre-dementia trials, and most recently, positive regulatory decisions from the FDA and EMA for the use of a clinical trial simulation tool to aid in trials for mild to moderate stages of AD., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented May 18, 2022. A tumor bank that provides a large collection of cancer specimens, from breast and other cancers, annotated with clinical information. The CBCF TB enables researchers to address unanswered questions concerning the prognosis and treatment of breast cancer and other cancers. The CBCF TB website is also directed to participants interested in donating tumor tissue or blood. Biological specimens such as blood, urine, bone marrow, and ascites (fluid that sometimes collects in the abdomen) contain genetic information, just as tumor tissue does. These samples can be used in studies that may help researchers see how people with certain genetic make-ups respond to certain treatments. It can also explain why different people have different health problems. CBCF TB, formerly ARTB, was created by a merger of components of two existing Tumor-banking initiatives, the CLS Repository in Calgary and the Tumor bank of the PolyomX Program in Edmonton.
