Trial ID: L2916
Source ID: NCT01883804
Associated Drug: Methyldopa
Title: Effect of Methyldopa on MHC Class II Antigen Presentation in Type 1 Diabetes
Acronym:
Status: COMPLETED
Study Results: YES
Results: https://ClinicalTrials.gov/show/NCT01883804/results
Conditions: Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1
Interventions: DRUG: Methyldopa
Outcome Measures: Primary: The Change From Baseline of DQ8 Antigen Presentation by Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells After 6 Weeks of Methyldopa Treatment., Cryopreserved primary peripheral blood mononuclear cells were used as antigen presenting cells to stimulate engineered T-cells (T-cell receptor transductant) responding to a specific peptide presented by HLA-DQ8. Secreted IL-2 from the engineered T-cell was measured by a highly sensitive ELISA. This was done for both an α-gliadin/DQ8 responding T-cell and a separate insulin/DQ8 responding T-cell., 6 Weeks (Baseline and week 6) | Secondary: The Change in C-Peptide AUC Following a MMTT From Baseline to Study Completion., Investigators aim to observe changes in residual endogenous insulin production as measured by C-peptide 2 hour area under the curve following a Mixed Meal Tolerance Test (MMTT). C-peptide is a measure of endogenous insulin secretion as both are secreted in a 1:1 molar ratio. Individuals ingested a liquid meal (Boost) with a fixed amount of protein, fat and carbohydrate in the fasting state followed by the timed measurements of serum C-peptide at 0, 15, 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes to compute the AUC., 12 weeks (Baseline and week 12)|The Change in Hemoglobin A1c From Baseline to Study Completion., Investigators aim to observe changes in hemoglobin A1c values, a measure of average blood glucose over the preceding 3 months., 12 weeks (Baseline and week 12)|The Change in Insulin Use From Baseline to Study Completion., Exogenous insulin use per kg of body weight., 12 weeks (Baseline and week 12)
