Summary

This trial is studying a new experimental drug to see if it can stop the body's immune system from attacking and destroying the insulin-producing cells in people with type 1 diabetes.

Who is the study for?
Adults aged 18-45 with recent Type 1 Diabetes diagnosis, on insulin therapy, and certain autoantibodies. They must have specific C-peptide levels, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, agree to contraception use if applicable, and meet other health criteria including HLA types.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The IMPACT study is testing IMCY-0098 at two different doses versus a placebo in people with Type 1 Diabetes. The drug aims to protect insulin-producing cells by targeting the immune system's harmful cells.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While the trial description doesn't list specific side effects for IMCY-0098, similar drugs may cause immune reactions, injection site discomfort, fatigue or flu-like symptoms. Safety will be closely monitored.

Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: IMCY-0098, low doseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The dose A (Cohort 1) will consist of subcutaneous administrations of 450 µg of the peptide in two separate injections of 225 µg each (500 µL each).
Group II: IMCY-0098, high doseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The dose B (Cohort 2) will consist of subcutaneous administrations of 1350 µg of the peptide in two separate injections of 675 µg each (500 µL each).
Group III: PlaceboPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Participants randomized to placebo will receive subcutaneous administrations of identical volumes of placebo solution to maintain study blind.

Other Research
The IMCY-0098 trial focuses on a novel approach to treating Type 1 Diabetes by inducing new immune cells to specifically target and destroy the harmful immune cells that attack insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. This mechanism aims to preserve and potentially restore the body's ability to produce insulin, addressing the root cause of the disease. Traditional treatments, such as insulin therapy, manage blood glucose levels but do not address the autoimmune attack on beta cells. Immunomodulatory treatments, like anti-CD3 or anti-CD20 antibodies, aim to modulate the immune response to prevent further beta cell destruction. These mechanisms are crucial for Type 1 Diabetes patients as they offer potential for long-term disease modification and improved quality of life by targeting the underlying autoimmune process.
