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.

A dataset of a longitudinal study of over 3,000 Mexican-Americans aged 65 or over living in five southwestern states. The objective is to describe the physical and mental health of the study group and link them to key social variables (e.g., social support, health behavior, acculturation, migration). To the extent possible, the study was modeled after the existing EPESE studies, especially the Duke EPESE, which included a large sample if African-Americans. Unlike the other EPESE studies that were restricted to small geographic areas, the Hispanic EPESE aimed at obtaining a representative sample of community-dwelling Mexican-American elderly residing in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, and California. Approximately 85% of Mexican-American elderly reside in these states and data were obtained that are generalizable to roughly 500,000 older people. The final sample of 3,050 subjects at baseline is comparable to those of the other EPESE studies. Data Availability: Waves I to IV are available through the National Archive of Computerized Data on Aging (NACDA), ICPSR. Also available through NACDA is the ����??Resource Book of the Hispanic Established Populations for the Epidemiologic Studies of the Elderly����?? which offers a thorough review of the data and its applications. All subjects aged 75 or older were interviewed for Wave V and 902 new subjects were added. Hemoglobin A1c test kits were provided to subjects who self-reported diabetes. Approximately 270 of the kits were returned for analyses. Wave V data are being validated and reviewed. A tentative timeline for the archiving of Wave V data is November 2006. Wave VI interviewing and data collection is scheduled to begin in Fall 2006. * Dates of Study: 1993-2006 * Study Features: Longitudinal, Minority oversamples, Anthropometric Measures * Sample Size: ** 1993-4: 3,050 (Wave I) ** 1995-6: 2,438 (Wave II) ** 1998-9: 1,980 (Wave III) ** 2000-1: 1,682 (Wave IV) ** 2004-5: 2,073 (Wave V) ** 2006-7: (Wave VI) Links: * ICPSR Wave 1: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/2851 * ICPSR Wave 2: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/3385 * ICPSR Wave 3: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/4102 * ICPSR Wave 4: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/4314 * ICPSR Wave 5: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/25041 * ICPSR Wave 6: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/29654

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

The JHS is the largest single-site longitudinal, population-based, cohort study of 5,302 persons initiated in the fall of 2000 to prospectively investigate the determinants of CVD among African Americans in the Jackson, MS metropolitan statistical area. The JHS investigates the various genotype and phenotype factors that affect high blood pressure, heart disease, strokes, diabetes and other important diseases in African Americans. The primary objective of the Jackson Heart Study is to investigate the causes of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in African Americans to learn how to best prevent this group of diseases in the future. More specific objectives include: 1. Identification of factors, which influence the development, and worsening of CVD in African Americans, with an emphasis on manifestations related to high blood pressure (such as remodeling of the left ventricle of the heart, coronary artery disease, heart failure, stroke and disorders affecting the blood vessels of the kidney). 2. Building research capabilities in minority institutions at the undergraduate and graduate level by developing partnerships between minority and majority institutions and enhancing participation of minority investigators in large-scale epidemiologic studies. 3. Attracting minority students to and preparing them for careers in health sciences.

Provides investigators with the opportunity to obtain on-demand biological samples from selected individuals that TrialNet has developed through the longitudinal monitoring of individuals at risk for the development of type 1 diabetes within the Natural History study. Exploratory research is encouraged under this initiative. Studies must use TrialNet screened subjects, and cannot interfere with ongoing clinical trials or studies. Investigators can select the clinical characteristics needed for their study as well as the sample type and collection frequency. Although many Living Biobank studies may be implemented through cost-sharing with the TrialNet network, special sample collections and visits outside of the normal visit schedules will incur additional costs which should be covered by the approved applicant. In addition, some studies may require effort from the TrialNet coordinating center, with costs covered by the approved ancillary study. Living biobank studies will be evaluated with careful consideration for their potential impact on the objectives and performance of the TrialNet Natural History study. To protect the interests of TrialNet, each living biobank study must be reviewed and approved by the Ancillary Studies Committee before its initiation. All approved living biobank studies will be reviewed yearly to evaluate their progress, and impact on TrialNet as a whole. TrialNet welcomes the submission of living biobank studies as an adjunct to ongoing protocols.
