Frequently Asked Questions
Has the latest version of FAMS been sanctioned by the FDA?
"While there is data that supports the safety of FAMS 2.0, there isn't any evidence to suggest it has an effective application yet, so our team at Power assigned a score of 2 on a 1-3 scale."
Are there still vacancies to join this trial?
"Clinicaltrials.gov states that this trial is not presently recruiting patients, despite having initially been posted on April 28th 2020 and most recently edited on November 28th 2022. Fortunately, there are 1284 other studies currently enrolling volunteers from the public."
What are the principal aims of this clinical investigation?
"The primary objective of this investigation, which will be evaluated during a baseline visit and again 6 and 9 months later, is to assess the long-term psychosocial well-being of patients. Secondary goals include quantifying any changes in support burden (as measured by DAWN2) for family members, as well as diabetes distress experienced by those same loved ones both during intervention period and beyond. Each metric is scored from 0 to 100 - with higher scores denoting increased levels of stress or strain."
