ADA Position Statement: 1990

Sufficient data exist to warrant intervention studies for prevention of T1D

Intervention for prevention should be attempted only in the context of defined clinical trials

Intervention studies are best accomplished by randomized controlled studies

A registry of intervention studies should be maintained, and all planned studies should be reported to a coordinating body

Screening of high risk populations is encouraged

Risk assessment, counseling, and follow-up must be offered.

Studies must be evaluated on the basis of potential risks vs. benefits; children should not be excluded, on the basis of age alone, from a therapeutic study that may benefit them by preventing diabetes

How Risk is Determined

Choosing the Right Therapy

The Benefit vs. Risk Ratio must be appropriate to the degree of risk for development of type 1 diabetes

Must have proven efficacy

Must be able to include children

Ages: 8-45 of 633 participants in studies using AntiCD3, 378 were children

Risk: AntiCD3

Lymphopenia (low WBC): 15% with 2% graded as severe

Therapy for Low to Moderate Risk Helminths: Trichuris suis ova

(Porcine whipworm ova) •

Proof of principle established in inflammatory bowel disease and MS

Oral bi-weekly administration

Well tolerated

Use of therapeutic helminth therapy based on the “Hygiene Hypothesis”

Hygiene Hypothesis

1910 = 65% helminthic infections; current = < 2%

1901 Paul Ehrlich dictum: “autotoxicus”: body’s immune system would never attack host tissue to cause disease

20 th Century

brought an end to this theory with the identification of

> 80 autoimmune diseases.

Coronado Biosciences Enhance expression Of Protective T Regulatory Cells

Patients and Methods

This was a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial conducted at the University of Iowa and select private practices. Trichuris suis ova were obtained from the US Department of Agriculture. The trial included 54 patients with active colitis, defined by an Ulcerative Colitis Disease Activity Index of > or =4. Patients were recruited from physician participants and were randomly assigned to receive placebo or ova treatment. Patients received 2500 Trichuris suis ova or placebo orally at 2-week intervals for 12 weeks.

Results Conclusion

ASP 1002 significantly improved UCDAI versus placebo (stool frequency, presence of blood in the stool, mucosal appearance) Ova therapy seems safe and effective in patients with active colitis.
