How we deliver
research
The DTRG are very grateful to people with diabetes (our participants) from Victoria who are very generous with their time and commitment to our research, without whom we couldn’t do the work we do with our partners
The DTRG work in clinical research primarily in the type 1 diabetes space with tertiary institutions both locally in Victoria, nationally and internationally as well as with patient representative bodies including Diabetes Victoria and JDRF.
We run both Investigator lead and Sponsor lead studies with funding bodies including :
-
- NHMRC
- JDRF Australia
- JDRF International
- The Helmsley Charitable Trust
- Multiple Industry partners

Current Research
Currently Recruiting
7 day wear pump infusion line study. Learn more
Food Content Phone App Study. Learn More
Benchmarking hormonal responses to exercise in people without diabetes
versus those with type 1 diabetes. Learn more
Upcoming Research
Combined Infusion Line and CGM Sensor Study:
- If you are aged over 18 and up to 75 years of age
- Use an insulin pump and have sensor experience
- Willing to commit to an intensive 7 days of technology interaction
- This study explores the performance of an insulin pump
infusion line with a combined CGM sensor
This study will start in the second half of this year and take place over a period of 7 days for each participant
- Wear the Tandem pump and an insulin pump infusion line with a combined CGM sensor
- A mixed meal challenge will occur twice and frequent testing of blood will be undertaken by each participant during the base and end phases to assess how the combined infusion line and sensor performance
