INIT II is here!!

Have you visited the new INIT II website? www.stopdiabetes.com.au has information about the INIT II trial, type 1 diabetes, and lots more. It even has a link to the sign up site (though you can still ring 1300 138 712 to sign up over the phone). Drop in and have a look!

 

The INIT II Trial is recruiting around Australia and New Zealand, trying to discover whether type 1 diabetes can be prevented with a vaccine of intranasal insulin. We've screened more than 3,000 prospective participants so far... but need many more!

If you are aged between 4 and 30, generally healthy, and are a blood relative of someone with type 1 diabetes, you may be eligible to participate - call 1300 138 712 or visit the website to sign up!

 

The TrialNet Natural History Study is now recruiting at 18 different regional sites around Australia and New Zealand, with more to follow - check out our list of TrialNet sites and find out who to call in your area!

 

The Type 1 Diabetes Genetics Consortium was recently featured in Conquest magazine. Read the text of the article here!

 

The results of the first intranasal insulin trial (INIT I) have been published in Diabetes Care! Click here to read the article, or here to view a selection of our publications in clinical research!
