Teamwork and tech take on type 1 diabetes in new trial
NCT ID NCT07097818
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a comprehensive management program—including a specialized diabetes team, structured education, peer support, and modern diabetes technology like insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors—can improve blood sugar control in people with type 1 diabetes. About 400 participants across multiple hospitals will be randomly assigned to either the intensive program or routine care. The main goal is to see if the program lowers HbA1c levels after one year.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- structured education, peer support, insulin pumps, and continuous glucose monitors
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that combining specialized care, technology, and peer support helps people with type 1 diabetes achieve better long-term blood sugar control.
- What could go wrong
- This is a behavioral intervention trial, not a new drug or cure. Results may vary across hospitals, and the benefits might not apply to all patients or settings.

Patients with severe cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, hepatic, or renal diseases; uncontrolled systemic diseases, thyroid diseases; autoimmune diseases; or malignancies. 5. Patients diagnosed with hematologic or bleeding disorders. 6. Patients who have received red blood cell transfusions or erythropoiesis-stimulating agents within 3 months prior to screening. 7. Patients who have used any oral, injectable, or intravenous corticosteroids within 8 weeks prior to screening, or who plan to use corticosteroids during the trial. 8. Patients with severe skin diseases that may affect the application sites of continuous glucose monitoring or insulin pump patches. 9. Patients with auditory or visual impairments. 10. Patients with alcohol or drug abuse. 11. Patients who plan to receive blood transfusions during the study period. 12. Patients who plan to undergo elective surgery requiring general anesthesia or dialysis during the study period. 13.
