TrialNet T1D Risk Screening
The TrialNet Pathway to prevention Study--TrialNet's T1D risk screening program--is a study to learn more about T1D and what can be done to delay or prevent it. If you have a relative with T1D, you're in a unique position to detect your risk while also advancing important research.
-
Detect your risk of T1D.
A small blood sample will detect your risk of developing T1D by looking for two or more diabetes-related autoantibodies. These autoantibodies may show up years before symptoms appear.
-
The results are important.
Detecting future risk is important. Depending on your screening results, you may be eligible to join a TrialNet clinical research study exploring treatments and therapies designed to alter or stop disease progression.
-
Getting screened is easy.
Your blood sample will be collected by a TrialNet representative. Samples are then sent to a laboratory for analysis. Results are ready in about 4-6 weeks. Participants will be notified by TrialNet and may be asked to schedule a follow-up consultation.
Who can get screened?
TrialNet T1D risk screening is offered to anyone between the ages of 1 and 45 with a sibling, child, or parent with type 1 diabetes OR anyone between the ages of 1 and 20 with a sibling, child, parent, cousin, uncle, aunt, niece, nephew, grandparent or half-sibling with type 1 diabetes.
