This is a study that investigates whether an IV medication (teplizumab) will slow or halt the progression of type 1 diabetes in children and adolescents (ages 8 - 17 years).

We are currently enrolling adolescents ages 15-21 of South Asian ancestry, African American ancestry, and European American or "White" ancestry.

You are invited to take part in a voluntary research trial because you have type 2 diabetes and are between the ages of 10 and 17 years.

Dr. Pinney’s research focuses on determining the molecular mechanisms that link an adverse intrauterine milieu to the development of diabetes and obesity later in life.

The purpose of this research study is to examine and understand the various mechanisms that contribute to Cystic Fibrosis Related Diabetes and gain a better understanding of potential means to treat Cystic Fibrosis Related Diabetes.
