Recent-Onset Type 1 Diabetes Trial Evaluating Efficacy and Safety of Teplizumab
PROTECT
Phase 3 Randomized Double-Blind Multinational Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of Teplizumab, a Humanized Fc Receptor (FcR) Non-Binding Anti-cluster of Differentiation 3 (CD3) Monoclonal Antibody, in Children and Adolescents With Newly Diagnosed Type 1 Diabetes

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether teplizumab slows the loss of β cells and preserves β cell function in children and adolescent 8-17 years old who have been diagnosed with T1D in the previous 6 weeks.. Subjects will receive two courses of either teplizumab or placebo treatment 6 months apart.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change in C-peptide ln(AUC+1) Standardized by Duration of the Mixed Meal Tolerance Test (MMTT)
The area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of C-peptide was measured after a 4-hour mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT) and is a measure of endogenous insulin production and β cell function. The AUC was computed using the trapezoidal rule and standardized by the duration of the MMTT test, i.e., AUC was divided by the last blood sample collection time (240 minutes or the last collection time for 4h MMTT).
Baseline to Week 78
Secondary Outcomes (8)
Average Daily Exogenous Insulin Use

Change in Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) Levels (%)

Study Arms (2)
Teplizumab
EXPERIMENTALTeplizumab was administered via intravenous infusion in two courses, with the first course starting on Day 1 (Week 1) and the second course approximately 6 months later at Day 182 (Week 26). Participants who were unable to receive the second 12-day course due to COronaVIrus Disease of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic restrictions were given the second course at approximately 12 months (Week 52 visit). Each course of treatment included daily infusions for 12 days. Each course included: * Day 1: 106 μg/m\^2 * Day 2: 425 μg/m\^2 * Days 3-12: 850 μg/m\^2 Total per course: 9.0 mg/m\^2 The doses of study drug were calculated based on the participant's body surface area (BSA) measured on the first day of each treatment course.
Placebo
PLACEBO COMPARATORPlacebo was administered via intravenous infusion in two courses, with the first course starting on Day 1 (Week 1) and the second course approximately 6 months later at Day 182 (Week 26). Participants who were unable to receive the second 12-day course due to COronaVIrus Disease of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic restrictions were given the second course at approximately 12 months (Week 52 visit). Each course of treatment included daily infusions for 12 days. The placebo solution consisted of the same formulation as the study drug but without teplizumab. Placebo was administered in the same dose volume and by the same treatment schedule as the active drug.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Is 8 to 17 years of age, inclusive, at the time of randomization/initiation of study drug administration.
- Has received a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes (T1D) according to the criteria from the American Diabetes Association.
- Is able to be randomized and initiate study drug within 6 weeks (42 days) of the formal T1D diagnosis.
- Has a peak stimulated C-peptide of ≥0.2 pmol/mL from a mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT) at screening.
- Has a positive result on testing for T1D-related autoantibodies.
You may not qualify if:
- Has any autoimmune disease other than T1D with the exception of stable thyroid or celiac disease.
- Has an active infection and/or fever.
- Has a history of or serologic evidence at screening of current or past infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), or hepatitis C virus (HCV).
- An individual who has a medical, psychological or social condition that, in the opinion of the Principal Investigator, would interfere with safe and proper completion of the trial.
