What is the Oral Insulin Prevention Trial For Relatives Of People With Type 1 Diabetes study?
If someone in your family has type 1 diabetes, you
and other family members may be at risk. TrialNet
is working to delay or prevent diabetes in people
at risk for developing type 1 diabetes.
TrialNet is now testing oral insulin (insulin
taken by mouth, not by injection). We will see if
oral insulin helps to delay or prevent type 1
diabetes. Results from a recently completed study
(called DPT-1) suggest that oral insulin might
delay or prevent type 1 diabetes in some people
found to be at risk.

parent, child, brother, or sister with type 1
diabetes?
OR
Are you 1 to 20 years old AND do you have a niece,
nephew, aunt, uncle, grandparent, half-sibling or

What do I have to do as a study participant?
If your blood test shows that you have diabetes
related autoantibodies, we will invite you to have
further blood tests. These will tell us if you can
join the Oral Insulin Prevention Study.
If you have autoantibodies but cannot or do not want
to be in the Oral Insulin Study, you can be in the
TrialNet Natural History Study. We will monitor
you closely for diabetes.
