Baricitinib in New-onset Type 1 Diabetes (BANDIT)
A Phase 2, Randomised, Placebo Controlled Study Investigating the Efficacy of Baricitinib in New Onset Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) results from the killing of insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells by cells of the immune system. The study aims to slow the progressive, immune-mediated loss of insulin-producing beta cells that occurs after clinical presentation. The investigators have identified a pathway that is important for immune cells to kill beta cells, and a drug that will block this pathway and prevent beta cell death. This drug, baricitinib, is already in clinical use for rheumatoid arthritis, and is currently in clinical trials for other diseases, including childhood autoimmune diseases. It is hypothesized that baricitinib treatment for 48 weeks will preserve beta cell function in children and young adults with recently-diagnosed T1D.
The trial aims to recruit 83 participants aged 10-30 years who have been recently diagnosed with T1D. Two thirds of the participants will be randomly assigned to receive baricitinib, one third will receive placebo. The trial will test if baricitinib can slow the progressive loss of insulin-producing beta cells in these patients. The primary objective is to determine if baricitinib can reduce the loss of meal-stimulated plasma C-peptide, a measure of beta-cell function. Maintaining endogenous insulin in recent-onset T1D improves glucose control and may lead to long-term improvements in glucose and lower rates of serious diabetes complications and death.

- Impaired renal function defined by estimated glomerular filtration rate (according to the CKD-EPI) of < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2;
- LDL cholesterol >4mmol/l;
Elevated liver function tests at screening:
- Aspartate aminotransferase 2x ULN
- Alanine aminotransferase 2 x ULN;
Clinically significant abnormal laboratory parameters at screening including but not limited to:
