FINE-ONE

Purpose: to learn if finerenone is safe and effective in preventing the progression of chronic kidney disease in people with T1D

What’s required: participation for potentially up to 7.5 months, taking study treatments for 6 months, with visits to the study site at least 6 times

Who can participate: adults over the age of 18 who have lived with T1D for at least one year

JAKPOT T1D

Purpose: to see if two different treatments – abrocitinib and ritlecitinib (a new class of autoimmune treatments called Janus kinase [JAK] inhibitors) – can preserve insulin production in people newly diagnosed with T1D

What’s required: a treatment over 1 year (where you will visit a study site every 3 months for tests), plus a 1-year follow-up phase (where you will visit a study site every 6 months)

Who can participate: individuals ages 12 through 35 who have been diagnosed with T1D in the past 3 months
