Large study aims to uncover immune triggers for type 1 diabetes
NCT ID NCT05899439
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is looking at how certain genes affect the immune system and may increase the risk of developing type 1 diabetes. Researchers will collect blood samples from 2,800 people to study immune cells and genetic risk factors. The goal is to better understand why some people develop the disease, not to test a new treatment.
