StartRight: Getting the Right Classification and Treatment From Diagnosis in Adults With Diabetes (StartRight)
Study Overview
Status
Conditions
Detailed Description
The study is a prospective observational study which will assess the relationship between clinical features and biomarkers at diabetes diagnosis and type of diabetes defined by endogenous insulin secretion at 3 years diabetes duration.
The investigators will recruit a prospective cohort of 1200 adults that have been diagnosed with diabetes within the previous 1 year and aged between 18 and 50 at the time of diagnosis. The investigators will also recruit an additional cohort of 800 participants diagnosed with diabetes in the last year aged >50 at diabetes diagnosis, who will be stratified by insulin treatment (insulin treated n=400).
On recruitment into the study, non-fasting (within 1-5 hours of a meal) blood sample will be collected for baseline analysis biomarker assessment (serum C-peptide, routine biochemistry, Islet autoantibodies (GAD, IA2, ZnT8)) and biobanking. Clinical features will be recorded, including weight, height, waist/hip ratio & blood pressure. Participants will be asked to provide a home post-meal urine sample for Urinary C-Peptide Creatinine Ratio (UCPCR). At 1 year and 2 years post recruitment, participants will be contacted by telephone, email or in person to record concurrent treatment, hypoglycaemia and health service utilisation. Participants will be asked to collect a home post-meal urine sample for Urinary C-Peptide /Creatinine Ratio (UCPCR). HbA1c results will be obtained from participants GP practice or laboratory records.
At the end of the study, 3 years post recruitment, a non-fasting blood sample will be collected for serum C-peptide, routine biochemistry and stored for future biomarker analysis. Weight change, blood pressure, concurrent treatment, hypoglycaemia and health service utilisation data will be also be recorded.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Diabetes type defined by insulin requirement at 3 years
Time Frame: 3 years
|
Type 1 diabetes = Progression to insulin treatment and severe insulin deficiency (post meal plasma C-peptide <600pmol/L) at 3 years. Type 2 diabetes = Lack of requirement for insulin at 3 years (HbA1c <90mmol/mol without insulin treatment or post meal C-peptide ≥ 600pmol/L if insulin treated). |
3 years
