Transdisciplinary Care for Young Adults With Type 1 Diabetes
NCT06172166 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The incidence of type 1 diabetes (T1D) is increasing globally with the most substantial increases occurring in the youngest age groups. A growing number of youths with T1D must therefore transition their healthcare from pediatric to adult T1D care settings as they approach young adulthood. This healthcare transition introduces many challenges because it coincides with a developmental period that is fraught with social, financial, residential, school/work and other changes/demands. Thus, it is not surprising that young adults (YA) with T1D are at risk for suboptimal glycemic levels, the development of diabetes-related complications, and psychosocial issues such as depression, anxiety, and disordered eating. Yet, few evidence-based interventions to assist YA with T1D with this complex healthcare transition exist. In this study, we are testing the feasibility, acceptability, and initial efficacy of a novel transdisciplinary model of care (Transdisciplinary Care for Transition; TCT) in which a diabetes nurse educator, psychologist, and transition navigator (case manager) co-deliver transitional care. TCT addresses the psychological and systems barriers to transition and aims to improve outcomes via better assessment of YA needs and resources, better cross-discipline and YA-provider communication, and better collaboration with YA to resolve problems that cross pediatric and adult healthcare settings. We will recruit 80 YA with T1D during their final visit in pediatric T1D specialty care to participate in a pilot randomized controlled trial during which we will randomize YA to a standard care control group (SCC) or to receive three TCT visits during the 6 months post discharge from pediatric T1D care. In SCC, participants will transition to adult T1D care as usual per their clinic's standard transition procedures. All study procedures can be completed remotely. This includes enrollment, study evaluations, and TCT visits for those randomized to TCT. Thus, we are recruit

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06172166
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06172166 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 80 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Nemours Children's Clinic, which has 96 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Type 1 Diabetes appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Transdisciplinary Care for Transition is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06172166 reports 2 study locations spanning 2 distinct geographic areas — top geographies include Delaware, Florida. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
