A Pilot Study of Moderate Hyperbilirubinemia in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
In Brief
A Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating Atazanavir for Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus. Completed, enrolled 15 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Specific Aim: To establish the feasibility of studying the change in endothelial function caused by induced moderate hyperbilirubinemia in type 1 diabetes. Atazanavir, a drug that inhibits bilirubin conjugation, will be used to induce moderate hyperbilirubinemia. Endothelial function will be measured before and after atazanavir therapy. In addition, plasma markers of antioxidant capacity and oxidant stress will be measured as proof-of-concept that induced moderate hyperbilirubinemia has favorable effects on oxidative stress in type 1 diabetes.
