Research Categories

4. Collection of data through noninvasive procedures (not involving general anesthesia or
sedation) routinely employed in clinical practice, excluding procedures involving x-rays or
microwaves. Where medical devices are employed, they must be cleared/approved for
marketing. (Studies intended to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the medical device are
not generally eligible for expedited review, including studies of cleared medical devices for new
indications.) Examples: (a) physical sensors that are applied either to the surface of the body or
at a distance and do not involve input of significant amounts of energy into the subject or an
invasion of the subject's privacy; (b) weighing or testing sensory acuity; (c) magnetic resonance
imaging; (d) electrocardiography, electroencephalography, thermography, detection of naturally
occurring radioactivity, electroretinography, ultrasound, diagnostic infrared imaging, doppler
blood flow, and echocardiography; (e) moderate exercise, muscular strength testing, body
composition assessment, and flexibility testing where appropriate given the age, weight, and
health of the individual.
5. Research involving materials (data, documents, records, or specimens) that have been
collected, or will be collected solely for nonresearch purposes (such as medical treatment or
diagnosis). (NOTE: Some research in this category may be exempt from the HHS regulations for
the protection of human subjects. 45 CFR 46.101(b)(4). This listing refers only to research that
is not exempt.)

Please note: This approval is through the IRB only. You may be responsible for reporting to other
regulatory officials (e.g. VA Research and Development Office, UC Health - University Hospital). Please
check with your institution and department to ensure you have met all reporting requirements.

3. STUDY PROGRESS
A. Progress Report
i. Please provide a brief progress report. Your report must have sufficient detail to demonstrate the study is
being conducted consistent with your IRB approval. If you have not yet enrolled research participants, please
explain why:
SEARCH for Diabetes in Youth is an ongoing, multi-center, CDC/DDT and NIH/NIDDK funded observational
study of childhood diabetes that provides the most comprehensive data on a large cohort of youth with diabetes
ever established. SEARCH 3 includes registry and cohort components, as well as approved ancillary studies.
The study is currently funded until September 29, 2015.
Study Activities
Registry
SEARCH for Diabetes in Youth is continuing to ascertain newly diagnosed incident diabetes cases in youth age
<20 years across five geographically dispersed study centers, in order to assess temporal trends in diabetes by
age, sex, race/ethnicity, and diabetes type. At the WA site, the geographic area for the study includes King,
Kitsap, Pierce, Snohomish, and Thurston counties. The study is identifying incident cases from 2010 – 2015, and
is periodically re-ascertaining cases from earlier years. We are finding that we are averaging about 270 incident
cases per year, based on incident 2010 (n=256), incident 2011 (n=317), incident 2012 (n=288), and incident 2013
(n=95) cases. 2011 – 2013 case ascertainment is in process.
Participants with newly diagnosed diabetes are being asked to complete an Initial Participant Survey (IPS). We
are currently averaging about a 75% response rate to the IPS. A portion of those who are diagnosed in 2012 are
also being asked to complete a ‘registry’ visit. We have completed 80 registry visits to date at our site, out of an
estimated 145 total projected visits. We are continuing to collaborate closely with our local partners on case
ascertainment and IPS efforts.
Study investigators are providing consultation and support to inform the development of low-cost sustainable
public health surveillance systems of childhood diabetes in the U.S. SEARCH is also assessing total and causespecific mortality among 2002 – 2008 incident cases for the period from the date of diabetes diagnosis through
December 31, 2010.
Cohort
SEARCH is conducting an in-person ‘cohort’ visit with SEARCH participants who were incident in 2002 or later,
have a duration of diabetes about > 5 years, and have data from a baseline study visit (n=3,743 across 5 sites;
n=638 in WA). Data gathered at these visits will help investigators assess the prevalence and incidence of, and
risk factors for, chronic microvascular complications, selected markers of macrovascular complications, and
serious acute complications of diabetes. It will help determine the degree to which barriers to care, quality of
care, and the process of transition from pediatric to adult care impact disease factors, including dimensions of
diabetes type and diabetes-related outcomes. This data will also be used to maintain and supplement the
SEARCH repository for biological specimens, and promote access to SEARCH for conduct of scientifically and
logistically appropriate ancillary studies. We have completed 278 cohort visits to date at our site, which is 44% of
our target population. We are scheduling visits at times and locations that work well for participants and their
families. We are also completing a medical record review on a subset of this group.
Ongoing
We are continually updating contact information for study participants via contact information mailings, newsletter
mailings, LexisNexis, searching medical records, and contacting participants via phone or email.

Study-wide Activities
The WA Principal Investigator, Dr. Pihoker, is a member of the SEARCH Study Group and participates in the
oversight of the national study. Other local Investigators and staff are active in the SEARCH Study Group and in
a number of additional committees. Investigators and staff also participate in a number of writing groups.
Ancillary Studies
SEARCH Air
The SEARCH Air study is an ancillary study of SEARCH and is the first study to comprehensively evaluate the
role of air pollution on inflammatory and subclinical CVD markers in a diverse racial/ethnic and geographic
population of youth with Type 1 diabetes. Understanding the role of these environmental pollutants on this
vulnerable population has the potential to have a marked impact on treatment approaches and behavioral
recommendations. The study approach is utilizing rich existing SEARCH data, combined with new assays of
stored plasma, to examine inflammatory markers and subclinical measures of cardiovascular function and
structure in conjunction with air pollution exposures, estimated with state of the art spatio-temporal models.
Participants for the study are being drawn from five SEARCH sites. Incident cases from 2002 to 2005 are being
included as well as prevalent cases beginning in 2001. Existing plasma samples of 2 aliquots or more taken at
baseline and follow-up visits will be analyzed for participants without existing inflammatory marker data.
Recorded residential addresses are being geocoded for the baseline and follow-up visits when 1) existing
inflammatory or subclinical CVD markers were assessed and 2) when blood was drawn for inflammatory markers
to be analyzed by this study. Acute and chronic exposures to ambient pollution and traffic-related pollution will be
modeled using spatio-temporal statistical models. These exposures will be assigned to each geocoded address
for each participant. This study is in the data analysis stage.
SNAS
The SEARCH Nutrition Ancillary Study (SNAS) is an ancillary study of SEARCH funded by the National Institute
of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) and designed to substantially expand the nutrition
component of SEARCH, using both cross-sectional and longitudinal designs. The overall goal of SNAS is to
examine associations of nutritional factors with 1) the progression of insulin secretion defects, and 2) the
presence of CVD risk factors in youth with T1DM. After clinical diagnosis of autoimmune mediated DM, patients
can retain some capacity to secrete insulin for several weeks, months, or longer. Preservation of β-cell function
has been associated with lower risk for hypoglycemic events as well as lower HbA1c values and less frequent
microvascular complications. Moreover, children and adolescents with T1DM are at increased risk for
cardiovascular disease in later life. The premise of the work is that preservation of β-cell function and
development of CVD risk factors in youth with T1DM are impacted by nutritional factors. Identification of these
nutritional determinants may provide fruitful approaches to improving the long-term health of these young people.
This study is in the data analysis and manuscript writing stage.
Monogenic
The SEARCH Monogenic Ancillary Study was funded by the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation to extend
the observations made in SEARCH. Monogenic diabetes is caused by a single mutation in genes that control
either the production or release of insulin. There are two major classifications of monogenic diabetes, Maturity
Onset Diabetes of the Young (MODY) and Permanent Neonatal Diabetes Mellitus (PNDM). Individuals at highest
risk for MODY are those with non-autoimmune diabetes. Individuals at highest risk for PNDM are those
diagnosed with diabetes at less than 12 months of age. Little is known about the frequency of either MODY or
PNDM. SEARCH performed genetic analysis in the groups at high risk for monogenic diabetes. The goal of this
ancillary study is to extend the observations made in the SEARCH study by performing genetic analyses for the
three most common types of MODY (MODY3, MODY1, MODY2) in all SEARCH participants with nonautoimmune diabetes; performing genetic analyses for all known types of PNDM, including Kir6.2, SUR1, insulin
gene, EIF2AK3 (Wolcott-Rallison syndrome), FOXP3 (IPEX syndrome), homozygous GCK, IPF1, HNF-1β, GLIS3
and PTF1A, in all SEARCH participants diagnosed with diabetes in infancy; assessing the impact of establishing
a diagnosis of monogenic diabetes on clinical care; and performing genetic analysis for monogenic diabetes in
selected first degree relatives of SEARCH probands to establish a link between the MODY or PNDM mutations
and the presence of diabetes within these families.
IRB Status
We have continuing approval at 4 Institutional Review Boards (IRBs), including: Seattle Children’s, MultiCare
Health Systems, Virginia Mason, and Swedish Medical Center. Group Health Cooperative ceded review to Seattle
Children’s. We are continuing to submit revisions and renewals through these IRBs as appropriate.

3. What is the goal of this study?
Diabetes is the third most common chronic or ongoing disease in individuals under 20 years of
age. The total number of cases of diabetes in this age group is increasing, and types of
diabetes that have not been seen in young people are now being seen. These changes have
resulted in gaps in our knowledge about the total number of cases and types of diabetes in the
United States, the type of care young people with diabetes receive, the complications they
experience, and the effect diabetes has on their lives.
The goal of any research study is to answer questions. We (the research team listed on the
front of this form and our staff) are doing this research study to answer the following questions:
•
•
•

How common are long-term complications related to diabetes, including: retinopathy
(damage to back of the eye), nephropathy (kidney damage), neuropathy (nerve
damage), and damage to the heart and blood vessels?
How common are short-term complications, including hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)
and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA)?
What type of medical care are young people with diabetes receiving, and how does
diabetes affect the lives of these individuals?

4. Why do I have the option of joining the study?
You have the option to take part in this research study because you have completed a SEARCH
baseline in-person visit and have had diabetes for (about) 5 years or more.

5. How many people will take part in the study?
We think that about 610 people will take part in the SEARCH cohort visit at Seattle Children’s.
A total of about 3,900 people will take part in the cohort visit at hospitals and clinics around the
country.
6. If I agree to join this study, what would I need to do?
The cohort study visit includes:
• Blood draw
• Urine collections
• Brief physical exam
• Questionnaires
• Nerve tests
• Blood vessel test
• Eye test
• Medical record review
• Follow up contact
Blood Draw and Urine Collection
You/your child would be scheduled for an in-person study visit(s) at the Clinical Research
Center at Seattle Children’s or at another SEARCH outreach clinic. We would work with you to
schedule 1 or 2 visits to complete the cohort study measurements at time(s) that are convenient
for you. At least one of these visits would be a "fasting" visit, which means that no food or
fluids, other than water, could be consumed for at least 8 hours before coming to your visit.
You/your child would be asked not to take insulin or other diabetes medications the morning
before the test, except for basal insulin, which should be taken as usual. If you come to the visit
nonfasting, we might ask you to return another day to redraw all or part of the blood sample.
Before your scheduled appointment, you would receive a container with detailed instructions to
collect one urine sample at home the morning of your visit. We will ask that you collect the urine
from the first time you urinate in the morning. You would be asked to bring this urine sample
with you to your visit. Your urine would be tested for microalbumin (small particles of protein) to
see how well your kidneys are working.
When you arrive at your appointment, we would review the consent/assent form(s). This would
take about 20 – 30 minutes. If you/your child would like a numbing agent for the blood draw,
this part may take about an additional 30 minutes.
A blood sample would be drawn from your/your child's arm to measure blood sugar, hemoglobin
A1c (a test measuring your/your child’s average blood glucose level over the past 3 months), Cpeptide (a measure of your/your child's own insulin production), different types of cholesterol
(fat), islet cell antibodies (markers in the blood for type 1 diabetes), and several blood markers

associated with risk for developing heart disease or stroke. Based on age and size, the amount
of blood that would be needed for this would be between 1 teaspoon and 3 tablespoons.
If possible, we would collect all blood samples at the same time that a routine blood draw would
be done. If you/your child take part in more than one research study at the same visit, we would
try to combine tests and results when we can.
A urine sample would also be obtained during the visit and tested for several markers
associated with the risk of diabetes complications, such as heart disease and stroke. The
SEARCH study would like to keep some of the blood and urine that would be collected during
the study but is not used for other tests. Should we have questions about some of tests, the
storage sample would allow us to repeat the tests without needing to ask for a second blood
draw from you/your child. In addition, we would like to collect another sample of blood for
storage for future research.
We will also ask your permission to obtain and store a sample of blood to look at DNA, the
genetic material that is found in all of your cells. Researchers may look at specific genes, or
they may look at all of your genes together. If researchers were to look at specific genes, you
have the option of receiving the results of this testing if it would effect your clinical care.
However, if they were to look at all of your genes together, you would not receive the results.
The information researchers find about your DNA would be sent to a national storage center
called dbGaP (part of the National Institutes of Health) to help researchers better understand
how genes affect the risk of developing diseases such as asthma, cancer, diabetes, and heart
disease. When your DNA and clinical information would be sent to the storage center, no
personal information would be included, such as your name, date of birth, or address. Thus,
researchers would not be able to link this information back to you. The research that would be
done with your blood and urine samples would not be designed to specifically help you. It might
help people who have diabetes and other diseases in the future.
The total amount of blood that would be needed for the storage sample would be 1 teaspoon for
young children and up to 2 tablespoons for older children, dependent on age and weight. This
part of the visit would take 10 – 20 minutes.
The total volume of blood for this visit would be up to approximately 3 tablespoons.
After the fasting blood and urine samples are collected, a snack and/or meal or meal voucher
would be provided and you/your child would also take your routine medication.
Physical Exam
A trained member of the research team would perform a brief physical examination including:
height, weight, waist measurements, blood pressure, and examination of the skin of the neck.
The time to complete this exam would be about 20 minutes.
Nerve Tests
The purpose of these tests is to learn more about nerve damage in people with diabetes. We
would ask you not to exercise heavily the day before the tests. If you get sick or get very upset

in the day or two before the tests, or you eat or drink things that may affect the tests, we may
ask you to reschedule these tests.
These are the nerve tests:
1) MNSI, or Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument, is a 1-page survey and a brief foot
exam.
You would fill out the survey yourself; it has 15 “yes or no” questions about pain, numbness, and
temperature sensitivity in your legs and feet.
The foot exam is short and tests for your vibration sense, your reflexes, and your sensitivity to
monofilaments. Monofilaments are just small pieces of lightweight plastic, much like fishing
lines. The study coordinator would first test your vibration sense by placing a vibrating
instrument on your big toe. They would then use a rubber “hammer” to test the reflexes in your
ankle. These tests are not painful, and your regular doctor has probably used them with you
before. Finally, the study coordinator would place a monofilament on your toe to test your
sense of touch. These small pieces of plastic are not painful. The study coordinator would just
ask you if you could feel them on your toe or not.
The MNSI would take about 10 minutes to complete.
2) HRV, or Heart Rate Variability, would find out the health of your heart nerves. The test uses
an ECG, or electrocardiogram. This is a test that doctors regularly use to study the heart, and
your doctor may have used it with you before. The study coordinator would apply three
electrode stickers (special stickers that help transmit information) on your wrists and left
ankle/leg. These pads would be attached to wires and would record your heartbeat. During the
test, you would simply breathe normally for ten minutes while the ECG records your heartbeat.
The Heart Rate Variability test would take about 20 minutes to complete.

Blood Vessel Test
We would perform a test to measure how your blood vessels function. This test is called an
arterial stiffness test. You/your child would be asked to remove your outer clothing and to put
on a patient gown if you are not wearing loose-fitting shorts. A trained study coordinator would
check your pulse on your upper, inner thigh (groin), but would not expose private parts. A
chaperone would be present during these procedures.
The following test would then be performed:
The study coordinator would measure the distance from your neck to the top of your sternum
(breast bone), from your neck to your wrist, from your sternum to your belly button, from your
belly button to your groin, and from your groin to your foot. The electrode pads would be left in
place on your wrists and leg during this part of the test.
Your wrist would be touched with a small instrument shaped like a pen; and the stiffness of your
blood vessels would be measured. This instrument detects pressure changes with a tiny,

highly-sensitive pressure sensor in the flat end of the device that is shaped like a pencil eraser.
It does not use radiation (X-rays), sound waves (ultrasound), or needles. This test would be
repeated 3 times.
Then the same pen-shaped instrument would be touched on the side of your neck, your groin,
and your foot to measure the speed of your pulse. This test would be repeated 3 times.
The blood vessel test would take about one hour. After the test you would receive a meal or
meal voucher.
Eye Test
You/your child would be asked about your eyes and your eye doctor if you have one.
We would take 2 pictures of each of your/your child’s eyes. You/your child would be asked to sit
in front of a special camera and place your chin in a chin rest. The study coordinator would
darken the room so that your pupils would dilate (open) and we could align and focus the
camera on your retina (the back of your eye). No drops would be put in your eyes, and the
camera would not touch your eye. The study coordinator would sit on the other side of the
camera to record information into a computer and prepare the camera. While we do this, you
would see some small red bars and a multi-colored “x” in the camera lens. We would ask you to
look at the “x”. Just before we take the pictures, we would ask you to blink your eyes and then
open them really wide. The camera would flash a light from within the camera lens as the
picture is taken. This flash does not hurt the eye. Just after the picture is taken, you may see a
blue or red circular spot in front of your eye. This spot would not harm you and would go away
in about 5 to 7 minutes. We would wait a little while until your eyes dilate (open) again, and
then we would take another picture of this eye. We would then take 2 pictures of your other
eye. We might need to take extra pictures if the first ones don’t come out OK.
These pictures would be sent to the Ocular Epidemiology Reading Center in Madison,
Wisconsin to be read by trained eye specialists who would study the blood vessels and look for
any unusual changes.
Doing the eye test would take about 30 minutes.
Questionnaires
You/your child would answer questions about the effects of diabetes on your/your child's lives,
including current medications, personal and family medical history, financial information, the
type of diabetes education available, health insurance, diabetes self-care habits, diet, your/your
child’s self-report on stage of puberty, and information about your/your child's medical care.
If you/your child is 10 years of age or older, you/your child would also be asked to answer
additional questions about physical activity, smoking, alcohol, eating, and depression. Some of
the questions may be sensitive, for example, there are questions about mood, how well
you/your child get along in school, how you/your child gets along with family, friends, and
others.

You/your child are free to not answer any questions you don't want to answer, and may stop the
interview at any time. If you/your child decide not to answer any of the questions, you can still
take part in the rest of the research study.
One of the questionnaires assesses risk for depression, and it would be scored while you are at
your/your child’s appointment. If you/your child scores in a range at risk for depression that
result would be shared with your parent/you and a referral list would be shared with you if you
need it.
These questionnaires would take 45 – 60 minutes to complete.
Medical Records Review
We ask your permission for the researchers involved in this study to review your/your child's
medical record. Any information obtained from the medical charts is for use in this research
study only. It may be necessary to review your diabetes-related inpatient and outpatient
medical records. These records may include, but are not limited to visit notes, progress notes,
discharge summaries, consultation notes, medication records, history and physical, emergency
room records, and lab and other test reports.
Follow up
We will send you requests to update your contact information about every year. Part of this
update includes a question about your/your child’s social security number, which we will use to
track mortality among SEARCH study participants. If this study is expanded, or if other diabetes
studies are developed, we may contact you/your child in the future to ask if you/your child want
to participate further. As with this study, taking part in any future study is voluntary.

7. How long would I be in the study?
The study is currently funded through September 2015.
The total time to complete the cohort visit would be about 3 ½ to 4 hours. You may complete
the visit on one or two days, based on your preference and the research staff’s availability. You
may be able to complete some of the questionnaires at home or over the phone to shorten the
length of the in-person visit.
If you join the study, you can decide to stop at any time for any reason. Please discuss your
decision to stop with Dr. Pihoker or the research team.
If you would like your/your child’s stored samples removed from storage, we would send a
request to the central laboratory. They would then destroy the sample, and send us a letter
certifying that the sample has been destroyed. We would send you a copy of this letter.
The research study doctor could also decide to take you out of this study. This might happen if
we find out that it is not safe for you to stay in the study. Or it might happen if you cannot

complete to enough of the study elements. If we ask you to leave the study, we would always
explain why.

8. What are the potential harms or risks if I join this study?
If you feel uncomfortable at any time during any of these tests, just tell the study coordinator and
they would immediately stop the tests. All reasonable precautions would be taken to reduce
risks.
When taking a blood sample, there may be brief discomfort, and a bruise may form where the
needle poke occurs. To reduce the possibility of these risks, a local anesthetic (numbing cream
or liquid) may be applied to the skin before blood is taken.
The blood tests require that you/your child not have any food or fluids overnight, other than
water. In order to prevent low or high blood sugars, you/your child’s blood sugar would be
checked by finger-stick and your diabetes medication would be given as needed to control
your/your child’s blood sugar.
Some of the tests would look for the presence of health problems associated with diabetes,
such as high cholesterol. If researchers find signs of these health problems, it may cause
you/your child some anxiety or concern. If this happens, you/your child would be referred to the
appropriate local health professionals for evaluation and treatment.
There are no majors risks associated with the MNSI foot exam. All of the devices used (a reflex
hammer, a tuning fork, and a monofilament) are used daily in doctors’ offices; your doctor has
probably used them with you before. The tests are not painful, but some people may be slightly
anxious or uncomfortable when these instruments are used.
There are no major risks associated with the Heart Rate Variability nerve test. ECGs are used
daily in hospitals; you may have had one before. No electrical current is sent through the body,
so there is no risk of electrical shock. Application of the patches may feel cold, and in very rare
cases, a patient may develop a skin rash or irritation where the patches were applied. Some
people become slightly anxious when this test is done.
You may feel some pressure for a few seconds when the arterial stiffness blood vessel device is
placed on your skin.
There are no known risks associated with taking these pictures of the eye. People who are
light-sensitive may see a blue or red spot after the camera flashes, but this would not hurt the
eye, and it would go away within a few minutes.
If you find out that you have eye damage it could make you worried. We would share the
results with your provider, and would refer you to your provider or another doctor for appropriate
treatment. We would also be available to explain the results to you to help reduce your worry.

There could be harms associated with sharing your genetic information despite our safety
measures to protect your genetic information. They include:
• Someone could break into the computer system. They could then find the code that links
your genetic and medical information to you. This is very unlikely, but is possible.
• Find a way to link your genetic or medical information in a database back to you. Your
genetic information is unique to you. But you do share some genetic information with
your children, parents, brothers, sisters and other blood relatives. So it might be possible
for someone to use genetic information from your relatives to help figure out who you
are. That person would need to be able to access the database. They would also need
genetic information from you or one of your relatives. Again, it is unlikely this would
happen.
• Since some genetic information may predict health problems you or your relatives could
have in the future. This information might be of interest to health providers, life insurance
companies and others. There are state and federal laws that protect against genetic
discrimination. There is a new federal law called the Genetic Information
Nondiscrimination Act (GINA). This law makes it illegal for health insurance companies,
group health plans and most employers to discriminate against you based on your
genetic information. However, it does not completely protect you from discrimination.
• Genetic information could also be used by law enforcement agencies to identify a person
or his/her blood relatives.
• There could be privacy risks we don’t know about.
As with any research study, there may be additional risks that are unknown or unexpected.
9. What are the potential benefits if I join this study?

Potential Benefits for You:
You/your child may not directly benefit from participating in this research study. However, this
study may more clearly tell us about your/your child’s type of diabetes and whether you/your
child has any of the complication of diabetes.
You would receive results of your/your child’s blood and urine tests usually within 6-8 weeks of
the study visit. These results would include the Hemoglobin A1C, lipid profile (cholesterol), and
urine microalbumin (urine protein). These are standard tests. The report you receive would
explain the results to you. Your/your child’s doctor would also receive these standard test
results, plus results of the research laboratory tests that are being studied to determine the type
of diabetes.
You/your child and your/your child’s diabetes provider may receive the results of genetic tests
done for research purposes while taking part in this research study if it is determined that the
results of such tests could impact clinical care.

We would give you information about any eye problems that we find. If something is found that
needs urgent attention, we would phone/contact you and your health care provider as soon as
we receive these results (usually within 2 – 3 days). This eye test does not take the place of a
visit to your own personal doctor nor does it replace your regular dilated comprehensive eye
examinations. It is not a test of your/your child’s vision.
You would not receive any results or feedback on the nerve tests or blood vessel test as part of
this study. These tests are for research purposes only and do not replace the normal care
provided to you by your regular health care provider.

Potential Benefits for Others:
We hope that the information learned in this research study will benefit young people with
diabetes in the future. This is a large research study being carried out at five major medical
centers across the United States. The information we learn in this research study will improve
our understanding of how education, diagnosis, and the costs of having diabetes can affect the
people who live with this disease every day. The tests we do may help us better understand the
short and long term effects of diabetes. This may help improve diabetes-related care in the
future.
10. What other options do I have?
Taking part in research is voluntary. You/your child may choose not to take part in this study or
in parts of the study.
11. How would you keep my information confidential?
All information gathered during this study would be held in strict confidence. Any publication
resulting from participation in this study would not identify you/your child by name. A one of a
kind number, called a research study number, would be assigned to you/your child. No other
identifying information would be used. The research study number would be used to identify
only the test and interview information that was collected during the research study. The
research number assigned to you/your child, and not your child’s name, would be sent to the
study Coordinating Center at Wake Forest University in order to study the information. The list
containing the research study number assigned to you/your child would be kept in a locked file
in the research office of Dr. Pihoker, the research study's Principal Investigator. No one other
than Dr. Pihoker and her research team would be able to connect any of research study
information to you/your child.
Any stored samples would be kept in a central laboratory and stored for upcoming studies of
diabetes. The central laboratory is at the University of Washington. The samples would be
banked with a code, with no information at the laboratory that could link the samples to you/your
child. Dr. Pihoker and the study coordinators on this project would be the only people with

access to the code. The banked samples would be stored indefinitely, although would likely be
used within 7 years. When there is another researcher who wants to do a diabetes study and
use the stored samples, he/she would need to talk to Dr. Pihoker. If the study seems to be
important and reasonable, an Institutional Review Board (IRB) would review the study, and
samples can be used only after the study is approved. The IRB is a committee responsible for
protecting the rights of persons taking part in research.
The nerve test results would be sent to the University of Michigan and the SEARCH
Coordinating Center. The eye test results would be sent to the Ocular Epidemiology Reading
Center (OERC) at the University of Wisconsin – Madison and the SEARCH Coordinating center.
Investigators would analyze these results along with other data collected in the SEARCH study.
All answers that you/your child give and other information gathered about you/your child during
this study would be kept private. This is so because this study has been given a Certificate of
Confidentiality. This means that anything you/your child tells us or information we learn about
you/your child would not have to be given out to anyone, even if a court orders us to do so,
unless you say it’s OK. But under the law, we must report to the state suspected cases of child
abuse or if you/your child tell us he/she is planning to cause serious harm to self or others.
If you take part, we would make every effort to keep your information confidential.
If you join this study, we may put information about this study in your medical record. We do
this because the research study involves patient care.
Information collected about you during the study would be kept until all information has been
studied and results have been published. Future funding may allow the study to continue for a
longer period of time, however, the information about you would be destroyed as soon as it is no
longer necessary for the conduct of the research study.

12. Would it cost me money to be in the study?
If you take part in this study, there would be no cost to you and no cost to your
insurance company.
13. What if I were injured because I joined the study?
If you were injured as the direct result of this research study, Seattle Children's Hospital
would provide treatment. We would refer you for treatment if needed.
You would NOT need to pay for this treatment and neither would your insurance
company. This is the only compensation offered for study-related injuries. It is
important that you tell the Principal Researcher Catherine Pihoker, if you think that you
have been injured as a result of taking part in this study. You can call her at 206-9875037.

14. Would I be paid if I join this study?
If needed, we may be able to offer some assistance with travel costs, dependent on availability
of study funds. Important: You would need to give us receipts that clearly show your costs.
Once you complete all of the study procedures, we would give you/your child $120 in gift cards.
You would be paid a smaller amount if you complete only part of the study procedures. In the
rare circumstance that a blood redraw is necessary, you would receive an additional $20 gift
card.
We will be asking a small number of study participants to repeat the Heart Rate Variability
and/or Blood Vessel tests in order to assess the research team’s quality control. If you are
asked to participate in these repeat measurements, you would be given an additional gift card if
you agreed to participate. You would receive a $10 gift card if you were asked to repeat some
of these measurements, or a $20 gift card if you were asked to repeat all of them. If you are
fasting for the visit, we will provide a snack after you complete the blood draw and/or a $6 meal
or meal voucher after the blood vessel tests.
The IRS has certain rules about paying people who take part in research studies. If you
took part in this study, we would ask you to provide your name, mailing address, and
social security number so we could pay you.
You can be in this study even if you do not give us this information. If you decide not to
give us this information, you could receive a gift card or no payment.
The payments you would receive for being in this study might be taxable. Seattle
Children’s is required to report to the IRS study payments of $600 or more made to
anyone in any year.
Your samples could be used to make new products, tests or findings. These may have value
and may be developed and owned by the research team and/or others. If this happens, there
are no plans to provide any money to you.

If you say ‘Yes’ now, you can still change your mind later.
You can quit the study at anytime.
You would not lose benefits or be penalized if you decide not to take part in the study or to
quit the study later.

3. What is the goal of this study?
Diabetes is the third most common chronic or ongoing disease in individuals under 20 years of
age. The total number of cases of diabetes in this age group is increasing, and types of
diabetes that have not been seen in young people are now being seen. These changes have
resulted in gaps in our knowledge about the total number of cases and types of diabetes in the
United States, the type of care young people with diabetes receive, the complications they
experience, and the effect diabetes has on their lives.
The goal of any research study is to answer questions. We (the research team listed on the
front of this form and our staff) are doing this research study to answer the following questions:
•
•
•
•

How many cases of diabetes there are in the United States among youth;
What are the characteristics of each type of diabetes;
What medical care is being given to young people who have different forms of diabetes;
How is diabetes affecting the lives of young people with diabetes.

4. Why do I have the option of joining the study?

You have the option to take part in this research study because you have any type of diabetes,
were diagnosed under the age of 20 in 2012, and lived in King, Kitsap, Pierce, Snohomish, or
Thurston county in 2012.

5. How many people will take part in the study?
We think that about 1,220 people will take part in the SEARCH registry study at Seattle
Children’s. About 225 people at this site will complete a registry visit. A total of about 6,440
people will take part in the registry study at hospitals and clinics around the country.
6. If I agree to join this study, what would I need to do?
The registry study includes:
• Written questionnaires
• Blood draw
• Urine collections
• Brief physical exam
• Medical record review
• Follow up contact
Written Questionnaires
Prior to your visit, you/your child will have been asked to answer a short series of questions – in
person, via mail, online, or on the telephone – about the effects of diabetes on your/your child's
lives, your family’s education and income level, and general medical care. That survey will have
taken about 20 minutes. During your visit, we will ask you to complete an additional brief survey
about the medications that you/your child takes.
Blood Draw and Urine Collection
You/your child would be scheduled for an in-person study visit at the Clinical Research Center
at Seattle Children’s or at another SEARCH outreach clinic that is convenient to you. This
would be a "fasting" visit, which means that no food or fluids, other than water, could be
consumed for at least 8 hours before coming to your visit. You/your child would be asked not to
take insulin or other diabetes medications the morning before the test, except for basal insulin,
which should be taken as usual. If you come to the visit nonfasting, we might ask you to return
another day to redraw all or part of the blood sample.
Before your scheduled appointment, you would receive a container with detailed instructions to
collect one urine sample at home the morning of your visit. We will ask that you collect the urine
from the first time you urinate in the morning. You would be asked to bring this urine sample
with you to your visit. Your urine would be tested for microalbumin (small particles of protein) to
see how well your kidneys are working.
When you arrive at your appointment, we would review the consent/assent form(s). This would
take about 20 – 30 minutes. If you/your child would like a numbing agent for the blood draw,
this part may take about an additional 30 minutes.
A blood sample would be drawn from your/your child's arm to measure blood sugar, hemoglobin
A1c (a test measuring your/your child’s average blood glucose level over the past 3 months), CConsent, Assent and Parental Permission Form

peptide (a measure of your/your child's own insulin production), different types of cholesterol
(fat), islet cell antibodies (markers in the blood for type 1 diabetes), and genetic markers for
diabetes. Based on age and size, the total amount of blood that would be needed would be
between 1 teaspoon and 3 tablespoons.
If possible, we would collect all blood samples at the same time that a routine blood draw would
be done. If you/your child take part in more than one research study at the same visit, we would
try to combine tests and results when we can.
A urine sample would also be obtained during the visit and tested for several markers
associated with the risk of diabetes complications, such as heart disease and stroke.
The SEARCH study would like to keep some of the blood and urine that would be collected
during the study but is not used for other tests. Should we have questions about some of tests,
the storage sample would allow us to repeat the tests without needing to ask for a second blood
draw from you/your child. In addition, we would like to collect another sample of blood for
storage for future research.
We will also ask your permission to obtain and store a sample of blood to look at DNA, the
genetic material that is found in all of your cells. Researchers may look at specific genes, or
they may look at all of your genes together. If researchers were to look at specific genes, you
have the option of receiving the results of this testing if it would effect your clinical care.
However, if they were to look at all of your genes together, you would not receive the results.
The information researchers find about your DNA would be sent to a national storage center
called dbGaP (part of the National Institutes of Health) to help researchers better understand
how genes affect the risk of developing diseases such as asthma, cancer, diabetes, and heart
disease. When your DNA and clinical information would be sent to the storage center, no
personal information would be included, such as your name, date of birth, or address. Thus,
researchers would not be able to link this information back to you. The research that would be
done with your blood and urine samples would not be designed to specifically help you. It might
help people who have diabetes and other diseases in the future.
The total amount of blood that would be needed for the storage sample would be 1 teaspoon for
young children and up to 2 tablespoons for older children, dependent on age and weight. This
part of the visit would take 10 – 20 minutes.
The total volume of blood for this visit would be up to approximately 3 tablespoons.
After the fasting blood and urine samples are collected, a free breakfast or meal voucher would
be provided and you/your child would take your routine medication.
Physical Exam
A trained member of the research team would perform a brief physical examination including:
height, weight, waist measurements, blood pressure, and examination of the skin of the neck.
The time to complete this exam would be about 20 minutes.

Follow up
We will send you requests to update your contact information about every year. Part of this
update includes a question about your/your child’s social security number, which we will use to
track mortality among SEARCH study participants. If this study is expanded, or if other diabetes
studies are developed, we may contact you/your child in the future to ask if you/your child want
to participate further. As with this study, taking part in any future study is voluntary.

7. How long would I be in the study?
The study is currently funded through September 2015.
The time to complete the registry visit would be about 1 hour.
If you join the study, you can decide to stop at anytime for any reason. Please discuss your
decision to stop with Dr. Pihoker or the research team.
If you would like your/your child’s stored samples removed from storage, we would send a
request to the central laboratory. They would then destroy the sample, and send us a letter
certifying that the sample has been destroyed. We would send you a copy of this letter.
The research study doctor could also decide to take you out of this study. This might happen if
we find out that it is not safe for you to stay in the study. Or it might happen if you cannot
complete to enough of the study elements. If we ask you to leave the study, we would always
explain why.

8. What are the potential harms or risks if I join this study?
If you feel uncomfortable at any time during any of these tests, just tell the study coordinator and
they would immediately stop the tests. All reasonable precautions would be taken to reduce
risks.
When taking a blood sample, there may be brief discomfort, and a bruise may form where the
needle poke occurs. To reduce the possibility of these risks, a local anesthetic (numbing cream
or liquid) may be applied to the skin before blood is taken.
The blood tests require that you/your child not have any food or fluids overnight, other than
water. In order to prevent low or high blood sugars, you/your child’s blood sugar would be
checked by finger-stick and your diabetes medication would be given as needed to control
your/your child’s blood sugar.
Some of the tests would look for the presence of health problems associated with diabetes,
such as high cholesterol. If researchers find signs of these health problems, it may cause

you/your child some anxiety or concern. If this happens, you/your child would be referred to the
appropriate local health professionals for evaluation and treatment.
There could be harms associated with sharing your genetic information despite our safety
measures to protect your genetic information. They include:
• Someone could break into the computer system. They could then find the code that links
your genetic and medical information to you. This is very unlikely, but is possible.
• Find a way to link your genetic or medical information in a database back to you. Your
genetic information is unique to you. But you do share some genetic information with
your children, parents, brothers, sisters and other blood relatives. So it might be possible
for someone to use genetic information from your relatives to help figure out who you
are. That person would need to be able to access the database. They would also need
genetic information from you or one of your relatives. Again, it is unlikely this would
happen.
• Since some genetic information may predict health problems you or your relatives could
have in the future. This information might be of interest to health providers, life insurance
companies and others. There are state and federal laws that protect against genetic
discrimination. There is a new federal law called the Genetic Information
Nondiscrimination Act (GINA). This law makes it illegal for health insurance companies,
group health plans and most employers to discriminate against you based on your
genetic information. However, it does not completely protect you from discrimination.
• Genetic information could also be used by law enforcement agencies to identify a person
or his/her blood relatives.
• There could be privacy risks we don’t know about.
As with any research study, there may be additional risks that are unknown or unexpected.
9. What are the potential benefits if I join this study?

Potential Benefits for You:
You/your child may not directly benefit from participating in this research study. However, this
study may more clearly tell us about your/your child’s type of diabetes and whether you/your
child has complication of diabetes.
You would receive results of your/your child’s blood and urine tests usually within 6-8 weeks of
the study visit. These results would include Hemoglobin A1C, lipid profile (cholesterol), and
urine microalbumin (urine protein). These are standard tests. The report you receive would
explain the results to you. Your/your child’s doctor would also receive these standard test
results, plus results of the research laboratory tests that are being studied to determine the type
of diabetes.

You/your child and your/your child’s diabetes provider may receive the results of genetic tests
done for research purposes while taking part in this research study if it is determined that the
results of such tests could impact clinical care.
Potential Benefits for Others:
We hope that the information learned in this research study will benefit young people with
diabetes in the future. This is a large research study being carried out at five major medical
centers across the United States. The information we learn in this research study will improve
our understanding of how education, diagnosis, and the costs of having diabetes can affect the
people who live with this disease every day.
10. What other options do I have?
Taking part in research is voluntary. You/your child may choose not to take part in this study or
in parts of the study.
11. How would you keep my information confidential?
All information gathered during this study would be held in strict confidence. Any publication
resulting from participation in this study would not identify you/your child by name. A one of a
kind number, called a research study number, would be assigned to you/your child. No other
identifying information would be used. The research study number would be used to identify
only the tests and interview information that was collected during the research study. The
research number assigned to you/your child, and not your child’s name, would be sent to the
study Coordinating Center at Wake Forest University in order to study the information. The list
containing the research study number assigned to you/your child would be kept in a locked file
in the research office of Dr. Pihoker, the research study's Principal Investigator. No one other
than Dr. Pihoker and her research team would be able to connect any of research study
information to you/your child.
Any stored samples would be kept in a central laboratory and stored for upcoming studies of
diabetes. The central laboratory is at the University of Washington. The samples would be
banked with a code, with no information at the laboratory that could link the samples to you/your
child. Dr. Pihoker and the study coordinators on this project would be the only people with
access to the code. The banked samples would be stored indefinitely, although would likely be
used within 7 years. When there is another researcher who wants to do a diabetes study and
use the stored samples, he/she would need to talk to Dr. Pihoker. If the study seems to be
important and reasonable, an Institutional Review Board (IRB) would review the study, and
samples could be used only after the study is approved. The IRB is a committee responsible for
protecting the rights of persons taking part in research.
All answers that you/your child give and other information gathered about you/your child during
this study would be kept private. This is so because this study has been given a Certificate of

Confidentiality. This means that anything you/your child tells us or information we learn about
you/your child would not have to be given out to anyone, even if a court orders us to do so,
unless you say it’s OK. But under the law, we must report to the state suspected cases of child
abuse or if you/your child tell us he/she is planning to cause serious harm to self or others.
If you take part, we would make every effort to keep your information confidential.
If you join this study, we may put information about this study in your medical record. We do
this because the research study involves patient care.
Information collected about you during the study would be kept until all information has been
studied and results have been published. Future funding may allow the study to continue for a
longer period of time, however, the information about you would be destroyed as soon as it is no
longer necessary for the conduct of the research study.

12. Would it cost me money to be in the study?
If you take part in this study, there would be no cost to you and no cost to your
insurance company.
13. What if I were injured because I joined the study?
If you were injured as the direct result of this research study, Seattle Children's Hospital
would provide treatment. We would refer you for treatment if needed.
You would NOT need to pay for this treatment and neither would your insurance
company. This is the only compensation offered for study-related injuries. It is
important that you tell the Principal Researcher Catherine Pihoker, if you think that you
have been injured as a result of taking part in this study. You can call her at 206-9875037.
14. Would I be paid if I join this study?
If needed, we may be able to offer some assistance with travel costs, dependent on availability
of study funds. Important: You would need to give us receipts that clearly show your costs.
To thank you for taking part in the study we would give you/your child a $10 gift card for
completion of the Initial Participant Survey, and an $80 gift card for completion of the visit. In
the rare circumstance that a blood redraw is necessary, you would receive an additional $20 gift
card. If you are fasting for the visit, we will provide a $6 breakfast voucher, or breakfast, after
you complete the blood draw.

The IRS has certain rules about paying people who take part in research studies. If you
took part in this study, we would ask you to provide your name, mailing address, and
social security number so we could pay you.
You can be in this study even if you do not give us this information. If you decide not to
give us this information, you could receive a gift card or no payment.
The payments you would receive for being in this study might be taxable. Seattle
Children’s is required to report to the IRS study payments of $600 or more made to
anyone in any year.
Your samples could be used to make new products, tests or findings. These may have value
and may be developed and owned by the research team and/or others. If this happens, there
are no plans to provide any money to you.

Researcher's Statement
You/your child are being asked to give permission for you/your child to take part in a research
study. Taking part in research is voluntary. Please take time to make your decision, and discuss it
with family and friends. If you/your child decide to participate, but then later want to drop out of the
research study, you are free to do so without loss of any benefits, treatment, or services to which
you are otherwise entitled.
This form provides a summary of the information the researchers will discuss with you. If you/your
child takes part in this research study, you will keep a copy of this form. Be sure to ask any
questions you have about the research study.
You/your child are being asked to take part in a research study because you/your child were
diagnosed with diabetes at <1 year of age. Because of this, you/your child may have a genetic
form of diabetes called Permanent Neonatal Diabetes Mellitus (PNDM). As part of the SEARCH
study, we are currently testing people diagnosed with diabetes at <1 year of age for mutations in
the genes that cause these inherited forms of diabetes.
Purpose
We have learned from recent research that many infants who are diagnosed with diabetes at less
that one year of age have an inherited form of diabetes. The reason that it is very important to
test for these mutations in people who develop diabetes as infants is because, in some cases, it
can dramatically affect the treatment. It is possible that some people may receive treatment for
diabetes that does not include the use of insulin.
The purpose of this research study is to:
a. Learn how many patients with PNDM there are in the United States
b. Learn more about patients with PNDM
c. Offer genetic testing for PNDM at no charge
Benefits
If you/your child agree to take part in this study, there may or may not be direct medical benefits to
you/your child. If we find an abnormal test result for PNDM, this could affect your/your child’s
treatment. It is possible that some people with PNDM may receive treatment for diabetes that
does not include the use of insulin, and it is also possible that the diabetes control will improve with
a different form of treatment. However, it is also possible, even if your/your child’s results are
abnormal, that the diabetes treatment will not change. In addition, the information we learn in this
research study may benefit other children by improving our understanding of who needs to be
tested for PNDM, and whether testing for PNDM improves the lives of patients in whom mutations
are found.
Procedures
This study consists of 2 parts:
1) We will obtain a blood or saliva sample in order to perform the genetic testing
2) You will fill out questionnaires about diabetes in your family and the effects that diabetes has
on your/your child's life

Page 2 of 6. Seattle Children’s Monogenic Study, Initial Genetic Testing Consent. 08 2013

Sample Collection for Genetic Testing
You/your child will be scheduled for an in-person study visit in the Clinical Research Center at
Seattle Children’s Hospital and Regional Medical Center or another SEARCH outreach clinic. This
may be scheduled at the same time as a SEARCH study visit. A blood sample will be drawn from
your/your child's arm. DNA will be removed from the blood and used to test for mutations in one of
several genes that may cause PNDM. The total amount of blood needed for this sample is 2
teaspoons. If your child weighs less than 11 pounds at the time of the blood draw, a smaller
amount of blood will be drawn; we will follow guidelines that tell us what is a safe amount of blood
to take. This part of the visit will take 10 – 20 minutes. If you/your child needs a numbing cream
for the blood draw, this part will take at least 30 minutes.
If you/your child are not able to come for an in-person visit, you can have blood drawn by your
local doctor and then send the blood sample to us in the mail.
If we can not get a blood sample, we can instead collect a saliva (spit) sample. We are not able to
get as much DNA from saliva as we can from blood, so we may not be able to test for all the genes
that may cause PNDM. For the saliva collection, you/your child will spit about 2 teaspoons (10
milliliters) of saliva into a container. If we are collecting this sample from your baby, we will rub
some soft sponges in your baby’s mouth to collect the saliva. If you are not able to come to the
study center, you may be able to collect the saliva sample at home and send the container to us in
the mail.
Written Questionnaires
After completing the blood draw or saliva collection, you/your child will answer some questions
about diabetes in your family, the effects of diabetes on your/your child's life, and other aspects of
your/your child’s medical history. You/your child are free to not answer any questions you don't
want to answer, and you may stop the interview at any time. If you/your child decide not to answer
any of the questions, you can still take part in the rest of the research study. This part of the study
visit will take about 20-30 minutes.
Research Data and Specimens
Blood and saliva samples will be sent to a central laboratory located at the University of
Washington and some DNA from these samples will be sent to a laboratory that specializes in
these genetic studies (Molecular Genetics Laboratory, Royal Devon and Exeter NHS Healthcare
Trust, Exeter, U.K.). The remaining DNA will be stored for upcoming studies of diabetes. The
samples are banked with a code, with no information at either laboratory that could link the
samples to you/your child. Some information about your/your child’s health and about diabetes in
your family may be sent to the U.K. laboratory to guide further testing in case the initial tests are
negative. This information will also be sent with a code, so that it cannot be linked to you/your
child. Dr. Pihoker and the study coordinators on this project will be the only people with access to
the code. The banked samples will be stored indefinitely, although will likely be used within 7
years. When there is another researcher who wants to do a diabetes study and use the stored
samples, he/she will need to talk to Dr. Pihoker. If the study seems to be important and
reasonable, an Institutional Review Board (IRB) will review the study, and samples can be used
only after the study is approved. The IRB is a committee responsible for protecting the rights of
persons taking part in research.
You may choose to withdraw from the study at any time. If you would like your/your child’s stored
samples removed from storage, we will send a request to the central laboratory. They will then
Page 3 of 6. Seattle Children’s Monogenic Study, Initial Genetic Testing Consent. 08 2013

destroy the sample, and send us a letter certifying that the sample has been destroyed. We will
send you a copy of this letter.
Risks, Stress or Discomfort
When taking a blood sample, there may be brief discomfort, and a bruise may form where the
needle poke occurs. To reduce the pain associated with the blood draw, a local anesthetic
(numbing cream) may be applied to the skin before blood is taken.
Knowing that you/your child have a genetic form of diabetes may cause you to have more
questions. We will answer any questions you may have to the best of our abilities. If needed,
you/your child will be referred to an appropriate local health professional for further evaluation and
treatment.
You might worry about whether results of this genetic test will lead to discrimination, for example
denial of health insurance or employment. Laws exist to protect against genetic discrimination, and
these vary from state to state. While it is theoretically possible that genetic information about
you/your child could lead to this sort of discrimination, this is very unlikely. Information about
you/your child will not be given to insurance companies, employers, or other parties without your
permission. Results of this genetic testing will be reported to your health care provider with your
permission (as indicated at the end of this form), and will therefore go into your medical record.
Test results
Test results will be mailed to you approximately 6 months after the blood is collected. If you have a
positive test result, someone from the study will also call you to explain the results to you before
you receive the letter in the mail. Your/your child’s diabetes provider will also receive the results, if
you have given your permission.
Privacy and Confidentiality
All information gathered during this study will be held in strict confidence. Any publication resulting
from participation in this study will not identify you/your child by name.
Once you/your child decide to join the research study, a one of a kind number, called a research
study number, will be assigned to you/your child. No other identifying information will be used.
The research study number will be used to identify only the test and interview information that was
collected during the research study. The research number assigned to you/your child will be kept
in a locked file in the research office of Dr. Pihoker, the research study's Principal Investigator. No
one other than Dr. Pihoker and her research team will be able to connect any of research study
information to you/your child.
All answers that you/your child give and other information gathered about you/your child during this
study will be kept private. This is so because this study has been given a Certificate of
Confidentiality. This means that anything you/your child tells us or information we learn about
you/your child will not have to be given out to anyone, even if a court orders us to do so, unless
you say it’s ok. But, under the law we must report to the state suspected cases of child abuse or if
you/your child tell us he/she is planning to cause serious harm to self or others’.
Taking Part in Research is Voluntary
Taking part in research is voluntary. You/your child may choose not to take part. If you/your child
do take part, you/your child may withdraw from this study at any time. If you/your child drop out of
the research study you can request that all blood or DNA samples that have been collected be
Page 4 of 6. Seattle Children’s Monogenic Study, Initial Genetic Testing Consent. 08 2013

destroyed. Withdrawal from this research study will have no effect on access to medical care nor
will it have any effect on the standard of care your/your child’s health care professionals are
providing.
Compensation
For the in-person visit, you/your child will receive a $20 gift card.
If you or your child is injured as the direct result of this research study, we (Seattle Children’s) will
treat you or your child. If appropriate, we will refer you or your child for treatment. You or your
insurance company will be billed for the cost of this treatment. Please call Catherine Pihoker at
206-987-2540 if you believe you or your child have been injured as a result of this study.

Researcher's Statement
You/your child are being asked to give permission for you/your child to take part in a research
study. Taking part in research is voluntary. Please take time to make your decision, and discuss it
with family and friends. If you/your child decide to participate, but then later want to drop out of the
research study, you are free to do so without loss of any benefits, treatment, or services to which
you are otherwise entitled.
This form provides a summary of the information the researchers will discuss with you. If you/your
child takes part in this research study, you will keep a copy of this form. Be sure to ask any
questions you have about the research study.
You/your child are being asked to take part in a research study because through your/your child’s
participation in the SEARCH Study for Diabetes in Youth, we have found that you/your child had
a positive test for an inherited form of diabetes.
Purpose
There are a few rare inherited forms of diabetes. You/your child had a positive test in the SEARCH
study for either Permanent Neonatal Diabetes Mellitus (PNDM) or Maturity Onset Diabetes of
the Young (MODY). The study coordinator will tell you which one you have.
In infants who are diagnosed with diabetes at <6 months of age, very recent research studies have
shown that an inherited cause of diabetes (PNDM) is extremely common (about half of cases).
Diabetes may also be caused by inherited forms of diabetes in infants diagnosed between 6
months and 1 year of age, although not as frequently as in the younger age group. The reason that
it is very important to test for these mutations in people who develop diabetes as infants is
because, in some cases, it can dramatically affect the treatment. It is possible that some people
may receive treatment for diabetes that does not include the use of insulin.
MODY are a set of diabetes types that affect about 1-2% of people with diabetes. MODY usually
runs in families because of a change in a single gene that is passed on by parents to their children.
The usual course of MODY is different than the usual course of type 1 diabetes. Generally the
progression to needing treatment is more gradual. Some patients do not require insulin but rather
can be effectively treated with a certain oral medication (sulfonylurea). However, it is often not
possible to tell MODY from Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes when the diabetes is first diagnosed without
special testing. By finding out which type of diabetes a person has, the most appropriate treatment
for them can be determined.
The purpose of this research study is to:
a. Learn how many patients with PNDM and MODY there are in the United States
b. Learn more about patients with PNDM and MODY
c. Offer genetic testing for PNDM or MODY at no charge
Benefits
Although much care is taken when handling the research samples and performing the research
tests, it is still important to make sure the result is verified following the usual procedures for
medical tests. If we confirm an abnormal test result for PNDM or MODY, this could affect your/your
Page 2 of 6. Seattle Children’s Monogenic Study, Confirmatory Testing Consent. 08 2013

child’s treatment. It is possible that some people may receive treatment for diabetes that does not
include the use of insulin, and it is also possible that the diabetes control will improve with a
different form of treatment. However, it is also possible, even if your/your child’s results are
abnormal, that your/your child’s treatment will not change.
In addition, while this research study may not benefit you directly, the information we learn may
benefit other people by improving our understanding of who needs to be tested for these genetic
forms of diabetes, and whether testing improves the lives of patients in whom mutations are found.
Procedures
This study consists of 3 parts:
1) We will obtain a blood or saliva sample in order to perform the confirmatory genetic testing
2) If you have not already done this, you will fill out questionnaires about diabetes in your family,
the effects that diabetes has on your/your child's life, and the effects that participating in this
research study has had on your/your child’s life
3) We will review your/your child's medical records to get complete information for the research
study
Sample Collection for Genetic Testing
You/your child will be scheduled for an in-person study visit in the Clinical Research Center at
Seattle Children’s Hospital and Regional Medical Center or another SEARCH outreach clinic. This
may be scheduled at the same time as a SEARCH study visit. A blood sample will be drawn from
your/your child's arm. DNA will be removed from the blood and used to confirm the abnormal test
result, by rechecking to be sure that you have a mutation in a gene that causes PNDM or MODY.
The total amount of blood needed for this sample is 2 teaspoons. If your child weighs less than 11
pounds at the time of the blood draw, a smaller amount of blood will be drawn; we will follow
guidelines that tell us what is a safe amount of blood to take. This part of the visit will take 10 – 20
minutes. If you/your child needs a numbing cream for the blood draw, this part will take at least 30
minutes.
If you/your child are not able to come to the study center for an in-person visit, you can have blood
drawn by your local doctor and then send the blood sample to us in the mail.
If we can not get a blood sample, we will instead collect a saliva (spit) sample. For the saliva
collection, you/your child will spit about 2 teaspoons (10 milliliters) of saliva into a container. If we
are collecting this sample from your baby, we will rub some soft sponges in your baby’s mouth to
collect the saliva. If you are not able to come to the study center, you may be able to collect the
saliva sample at home and send the container to us in the mail.
Written Questionnaires
After completing the blood draw or saliva collection, you/your child will answer some questions
about diabetes in your family, the effects of diabetes on your/your child's life, other aspects of
you/your child’s medical history, and the effects that participating in this research study has had on
you/your child’s life. You/your child are free to not answer any questions you don't want to answer,
and may stop the interview at any time. If you/your child decide not to answer any of the
questions, you can still take part in the rest of the research study. This part of the study visit will
take about 20 – 30 minutes.

Medical Records Review
We will ask your permission for the researchers involved in this study to review your/your child's
medical record. Any information obtained from the medical charts is for use in this research study
only. Researchers will gather information on the current status and treatment of your/your child's
diabetes. This information will include medications used to treat your diabetes and recent results
of laboratory tests. The medical records review will take place approximately one year after the
confirmatory test results are reported to you and your healthcare provider and will go back to the
period of time beginning 6 months before you received this test result.
Research Data and Specimens
Blood and/or saliva samples will be labeled with your/your child’s name and date of birth and sent
directly to the laboratory where the testing will be performed (Molecular Genetics Laboratory, Royal
Devon and Exeter NHS Healthcare Trust, Exeter, U.K.). Some health information and information
about diabetes in your family will also be sent to the lab in the U.K. in order to aid in the
interpretation of the genetic test result. This information will be linked with your name and date of
birth. After the blood/saliva sample has been tested, the rest of the sample will be destroyed. All
other study data obtained at this study visit (written questionnaires, documentation from medical
records review) will be labeled with a code, with no information that could link the data to you/your
child. Dr. Pihoker and the study coordinators on this project will be the only people with access to
the code.
You may choose to withdraw from the study at any time.
Risks, Stress or Discomfort
When taking a blood sample, there may be brief discomfort, and a bruise may form where the
needle poke occurs. To reduce the pain associated with the blood draw, a local anesthetic
(numbing cream) may be applied to the skin before blood is taken.
Knowing that you/your child have a genetic form of diabetes may cause you to have more
questions. We will answer any questions you may have to the best of our abilities. If needed,
you/your child will be referred to an appropriate local health professional for further evaluation and
treatment.
You might worry about whether results of this genetic test will lead to discrimination, for example
denial of health insurance or employment. Laws exist to protect against genetic discrimination, and
these vary from state to state. While it is theoretically possible that genetic information about
you/your child could lead to this sort of discrimination, this is very unlikely. Information about
you/your child will not be given to insurance companies, employers, or other parties without your
permission. Results of this genetic testing will be reported to your health care provider with your
permission (as indicated at the end of this form), and will therefore go into your medical record.
Test results
As the test results from this research study become available, you/your child will receive the
results. Results will be mailed to you approximately 1 month after the blood is collected. Someone
from the study will also call you to explain the results to you before you receive the letter in the
mail. Your/your child’s diabetes provider will also receive the results, if you have given your
permission.

Privacy and Confidentiality
All information gathered during this study will be held in strict confidence. Any publication resulting
from participation in this study will not identify you/your child by name.
A one of a kind number, called a research study number, will be used to label all data obtained as
a part of this study visit. No other identifying information will be used. The research number
assigned to you/your child will be kept in a locked file in the research office of Dr. Pihoker, the
research study's Principal Investigator. No one other than Dr. Pihoker and her research team will
be able to connect any of the research study information to you/your child.
Because results of the genetic tests may be used to change the type of treatment you/your child
are receiving for your diabetes, the blood or saliva sample needs to be sent with your name and
birth date so we can be sure that the sample belongs to you. The sample will be destroyed after
the testing has been completed, to protect your privacy.
All answers that you/your child give and other information gathered about you/your child during this
study will be kept private. This is so because this study has been given a Certificate of
Confidentiality. This means that anything you/your child tells us or information we learn about
you/your child will not have to be given out to anyone, even if a court orders us to do so, unless
you say it’s ok. But, under the law we must report to the state suspected cases of child abuse or if

Diabetes of the Young (MODY). The study coordinator will tell you which one your family
member has.
In infants who are diagnosed with diabetes at <6 months of age, very recent research studies have
shown that an inherited cause of diabetes (PNDM) is extremely common (about half of cases).
Diabetes may also be caused by inherited forms of diabetes in infants diagnosed between 6
months and 1 year of age, although not as frequently as in the younger age group. The reason that
it is very important to test for these mutations in children who develop diabetes as infants is
because, in some cases, it can dramatically affect the treatment. It is possible that some children
may receive treatment for diabetes that does not include the use of insulin.
MODY are a set of diabetes types that affect about 1-2% of people with diabetes. MODY usually
runs in families because of a change in a single gene that is passed on by affected parents to their
children. The usual course of MODY is different than the usual course of type 1 diabetes.
Generally the progression to needing treatment is more gradual. Some patients do not require
insulin but rather can be effectively treated with a certain oral medication (sulfonylurea). However,
it is often not possible to tell MODY from Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes when the diabetes is first
diagnosed without special testing. By finding out which type of diabetes a person has, the most
appropriate treatment for them can be determined.
The purpose of this research study is to:
a. Learn whether the genetic mutation found in your/your child’s family member is likely to be
causing his/her diabetes
b. Offer genetic testing and testing for diabetes at no charge
c. Determine whether you are likely to pass this condition on to any future children.
Benefits
If you/your child have diabetes and are found to have the same abnormal test result, it could affect
your/your child’s treatment. It is possible that some people may receive treatment for diabetes that
Page 2 of 7. Seattle Children’s Monogenic Study, Family Members Consent. 08 2013

does not include the use of insulin, and it is also possible that the diabetes control will improve with
a different form of treatment. However, it is also possible, even if you/your child’s results are
abnormal, that you/your child’s treatment will not change.
If you/your child do not have diabetes, we may find by testing that you do have diabetes. You may
benefit from this because treating diabetes early can prevent complications from developing.
In addition, while this research study may not benefit you directly, the information we learn may
benefit other people by improving our understanding of who needs to be tested for these genetic
forms of diabetes, and whether testing improves the lives of patients in whom mutations are found.
Procedures
This study consists of 4 parts:
1) We will obtain a blood or saliva sample in order to look for the same abnormal test result that
was found in your/your child’s family member
2) If you do not have diabetes, we will test to see whether you have diabetes
3) We will ask you to fill out questionnaires about diabetes in your family, the effects that diabetes
has on your/your child's life, and the effects that participating in this research study has had
on your/your child’s life
4) If you/your child have diabetes or are found to have diabetes, we will review your/your child's
medical records to get complete information for the research study
Sample Collection for Genetic Testing
You/your child will be scheduled for an in-person study visit in the Clinical Research Center at
Seattle Children’s Hospital and Regional Medical Center or another SEARCH outreach clinic. A
blood sample will be drawn from your/your child's arm. DNA will be removed from the blood and
used to repeat the test for the gene(s) for which your family member had an abnormal test result.
The total amount of blood needed for this sample is 2 teaspoons. If your child weighs less than 11
pounds at the time of the blood draw, a smaller amount of blood will be drawn; we will follow
guidelines that tell us what is a safe amount of blood to take. This part of the visit will take 10 – 20
minutes. If you/your child needs a numbing cream for the blood draw, this part will take at least 30
minutes.
If you/your child are not able to come to the study center for an in-person visit, you can have blood
drawn by your local doctor and then send the blood sample to us in the mail.
If we can not get a blood sample, we will instead collect a saliva (spit) sample. For the saliva
collection, you/your child will spit about 2 teaspoons (10 milliliters) of saliva into a container. If we
are collecting this sample from your baby, we will rub some soft sponges in your baby’s mouth to
collect the saliva. If you are not able to come to the study center, you may be able to collect the
saliva sample at home and send the container to us in the mail.
Testing for Diabetes
If you/your child do NOT have diagnosed diabetes, we will also perform a test to determine
whether you have diabetes that has not been diagnosed. A member of the research team will set
up an early morning appointment. You/your child will come for a “fasting” visit, which means that
you will eat no food or fluids, other than water, for 8–10 hours prior to the visit.
A small plastic needle will be placed in your/your child’s forearm. You/your child will rest for 10
minutes and then 2-3 teaspoons of blood will be drawn through the plastic needle. You/your child
Page 3 of 7. Seattle Children’s Monogenic Study, Family Members Consent. 08 2013

will then drink a liquid meal. A final ½ teaspoon of blood will be drawn 2 hours after the first blood
draw. The needle will be removed after the last blood sample is obtained. Upon completion of the
test, you/your child will be given a free breakfast or meal voucher.
Written Questionnaires
After completing the blood draw or saliva collection, you/your child will answer some questions
about diabetes in your family, the effects of diabetes on your/your child's life, other aspects of
you/your child’s medical history, and the effects that participating in this research study has had on
you/your child’s life. You/your child are free to not answer any questions you don't want to answer,
and may stop the interview at any time. If you/your child decide not to answer any of the
questions, you can still take part in the rest of the research study. This part of the study visit will
take about 20 – 30 minutes.
Medical Records Review
If you have diabetes or are found to have diabetes, we will ask your permission for the researchers
involved in this study to review your/your child's medical record. Any information obtained from the
medical charts is for use in this research study only. Researchers will gather information on the
current status and treatment of your/your child's diabetes. This information will include
medications used to treat your diabetes and recent results of laboratory tests. The medical records
review will take place approximately one year after the confirmatory test results are reported to you
and your healthcare provider and will go back to the period of time beginning 6 months before you
received this test result.
Research Data and Specimens
Blood and/or saliva samples will be labeled with your/your child’s name and date of birth and sent
directly to the laboratory where the testing will be performed (Molecular Genetics Laboratory, Royal
Devon and Exeter NHS Healthcare Trust, Exeter, U.K.). After the blood/saliva sample has been
tested, the rest of the sample will be destroyed. Some health information and information about
diabetes in your family will also be sent to the lab in the U.K. in order to aid in the interpretation of
the genetic test result. This information will be linked with your name and date of birth. All other
study data obtained at this study visit (written questionnaires, documentation from medical records
review) will be labeled with a code, with no information that could link the data to you/your child.
Dr. Pihoker and the study coordinators on this project will be the only people with access to the
code.
You may choose to withdraw from the study at any time. If you would like your/your child’s stored
samples removed from storage, we will send a request to the central laboratory. They will then
destroy the sample, and send us a letter certifying that the sample has been destroyed. We will
send you a copy of this letter.
Risks, Stress or Discomfort
When taking a blood sample, there may be brief discomfort, and a bruise may form where the
needle poke occurs. To reduce the pain associated with the blood draw, a local anesthetic
(numbing cream) may be applied to the skin before blood is taken.
Knowing that you/your child have a genetic form of diabetes may cause you to have more
questions. We will answer any questions you may have to the best of our abilities. If needed,
you/your child will be referred to an appropriate local health professional for further evaluation and
treatment.
Page 4 of 7. Seattle Children’s Monogenic Study, Family Members Consent. 08 2013

You might worry about whether results of this genetic test will lead to discrimination, for example
denial of health insurance or employment. Laws exist to protect against genetic discrimination, and
these vary from state to state. While it is theoretically possible that genetic information about
you/your child could lead to this sort of discrimination, this is very unlikely. Information about
you/your child will not be given to insurance companies, employers, or other parties without your
permission. Results of this genetic testing will be reported to your health care provider with your
permission, and will therefore go into your medical record.
If you do not have diabetes and agree to participate, it is possible that we will diagnose you with
diabetes as a part of this study. Again, you might worry about whether results of this testing will
lead to discrimination, for example denial of health insurance or employment. It is possible that a
new diagnosis of diabetes could lead to this sort of discrimination. If you do not want to potentially
discover that you have diabetes, you should not participate in this research study.
Test results
As the test results from this research study become available, you/your child will receive results of
the tests. Genetic test results will be mailed to you approximately 1 month after the blood is
collected. Someone from the study will also call you to explain the results to you before you
receive the letter in the mail. Your/your child’s diabetes provider will also receive the results, if you
have given your permission. If you/your child do not have diabetes, you will also receive results of
the diabetes testing. These results will be available approximately 2 weeks after the blood is
collected. If we discover that you do have diabetes, you will be referred to a health care provider
who can help you to treat your diabetes.
Privacy and Confidentiality
All information gathered during this study will be held in strict confidence. Any publication resulting
from participation in this study will not identify you/your child by name.
Once you/your child decide to join the research study, a one of a kind number, called a research
study number, will be assigned to you/your child. No other identifying information will be used. The
research study number will be used to identify study data (written questionnaires, documentation
from medical records review) that was collected during the research study. The research number
assigned to you/your child will be kept in a locked file in the research office of Dr. Pihoker, the
research study's Principal Investigator. No one other than Dr. Pihoker and her research team will
be able to connect any of the research study information to you/your child.
Because results of the genetic tests may be used to change the type of treatment you/your child
are receiving for your diabetes, the blood or saliva sample needs to be sent with your name and
birth date so we can be sure that the sample belongs to you. In addition, because results of the
diabetes testing may be important for your medical care, these blood samples will also be sent with
your name and birth date. The samples will be destroyed after the testing has been completed, to
protect your privacy.
All answers that you/your child give and other information gathered about you/your child during this
study will be kept private. This is so because this study has been given a Certificate of
Confidentiality. This means that anything you/your child tells us or information we learn about
you/your child will not have to be given out to anyone, even if a court orders us to do so, unless
you say it’s ok. But, under the law we must report to the state suspected cases of child abuse or if
you/your child tell us he/she is planning to cause serious harm to self or others.

Taking Part in Research is Voluntary
Taking part in research is voluntary. You/your child may choose not to take part. If you/your child
do take part, you/your child may withdraw from this study at any time. If you/your child drop out of
the research study you can request that all blood or DNA samples that have been collected be
destroyed. Withdrawal from this research study will have no effect on access to medical care nor
will it have any effect on the standard of care your/your child’s health care professionals are
providing.
Compensation
For the in-person visit, you/your child will receive a $20 gift card.
If you or your child is injured as the direct result of this research study, we (Seattle Children’s) will
treat you or your child. If appropriate, we will refer you or your child for treatment. You or your
insurance company will be billed for the cost of this treatment. Please call Catherine Pihoker at

Researcher's Statement
You/your child are taking part in a research study because you/your child have diabetes. Taking
part in research is voluntary. This form provides a summary of information on genetic tests
performed as part of this study. Please read this consent form carefully, and ask questions about
anything that is not clear to you. Take enough time to make your decision, and discuss it with
family and friends. If you/your child decide to consent to genetic testing, but then later want to
withdraw this consent, you are free to do so without loss of any benefits, treatment or services to
which you are otherwise entitled.
Purpose
One of the goals of this research study is to examine the different types of diabetes that occur in
children and adolescents. Genetic testing tells us about traits that run in families, such as brown
eyes. A very small fraction of children with diabetes may have one of several rare, inherited forms
of diabetes. In the past few years, new research discoveries have been made related to these rare
forms of diabetes.
Benefits
Researchers hope to gather more information on these different types of diabetes by conducting
tests on stored samples in this research study.
Procedures
Genetic testing will be done on samples stored as part of this research study. No additional
procedures are needed. Prior to the visit, we will talk with you/your child about when genetic test
results might be shared and the pros and cons of receiving these genetic test results. You/your
child and your/your child’s diabetes provider may receive the results of genetic tests done for
research purposes while taking part in this research study if there is a consensus among doctors
that the results of such tests could affect your medical care.
Research Data and Specimens
The blood samples are kept in a central laboratory at the University of Washington. The samples
are banked with a code, with no information at the laboratory that could link the samples to
you/your child. Dr. Pihoker and her research staff are the only people with access to the code.
Risks, Stress or Discomfort
If, in the future, it is determined that the results of genetic tests could affect your/your child’s
medical care, your/your child’s medical insurance may not pay for the costs of tests to confirm the
research results or for the costs of genetic counseling. If the results indicate that you/your child
might have one of these rare types of diabetes, it might cause you/your child anxiety or concern. If
this happens, Dr. Pihoker will be available to answer questions, and if appropriate, you/your child
will be referred to the appropriate local health professionals for evaluation and treatment. Genetic
testing has risks, including the potential for inaccurate results, unknown meaning of results, or
misuse of results by others. If genetic test results are sent to your/your child’s physician, they
would become part of your medical record, which could affect future employment or insurance
availability.
Test results
If it is determined that the results of these tests could impact your medical care, researchers would
give you/your child and your/your child’s provider any positive results along with information on
follow-up testing to confirm the research results. As a result of follow-up testing, treatment
changes might be recommended. It is possible some children may receive treatment for diabetes
Page 2 of 4. Seattle Children’s (FOR Group Health Pts. ONLY) Genetic Testing Consent 08 2013

that does not include the use of insulin. It would be very important that you not make any changes
in your/your child’s therapy without confirmation testing and consulting with your/your child’s
provider. Confirmation testing would need to be done in a CLIA-certified lab. You may need to
pay for confirmation testing
Privacy and Confidentiality
All information gathered during this study will be held in strict confidence. Any publication resulting
from participation in this study will not identify you/your child by name. Once you/your child decide
to join the research study, a one of a kind number, called a research study number, will be
assigned to you/your child. No other identifying information will be used. The research study
number will be used to identify only the test and interview information that was collected during the
research study. The research number assigned to you/your child, and not your child’s name, will
be sent to the study Coordinating Center at Wake Forest University in order to study the
information. The list containing the research study number assigned to you/your child will be kept
in a locked file in the research office of Dr. Pihoker, the research study's Principal Investigator. No
one other than Dr. Pihoker and her research team will be able to connect any of research study
information to you/your child.
All answers that you/your child give and other information gathered about you/your child during this
study will be kept private. This is so because this study has been given a Certificate of
Confidentiality. This means that anything you/your child tells us or information we learn about
you/your child will not have to be given out to anyone, even if a court orders us to do so, unless
you say it’s OK. But under the law, we must report to the state suspected cases of child abuse or if
you/your child tell us he/she is planning to cause serious harm to self or others.
There is a risk that if people other than the researchers obtain genetic information, they could
misuse it. Because the genetic test results are kept with a code number, not your name, we think
the chance of this happening is very small.
Taking Part in Research is Voluntary
Taking part in research is voluntary. You/your child may choose not to take part. If you/your child
do take part, you/your child may withdraw from this study at any time. If you/your child drop out of
the research study you can request that all blood or DNA samples that have been stored be
destroyed. Withdrawal from this research study will have no effect on access to medical care nor
will it have any effect on the standard of care your/your child’s health care professionals are
providing.
Compensation
You/your child will not receive any additional compensation for this part of the study.
Questions
For questions about the research or feel you have been harmed, please call Dr. Catherine Pihoker
at 206/987-2540. For questions about your/your child’s rights as a research participant, contact
the Seattle Children’s Institutional Review Board (IRB) at 206-987-7804. This committee reviews

What is research?
Research studies help us learn new things. We can test new ideas. First, we ask a question.
Then we try to find the answer.
This paper talks about our research study. We want you to ask us any questions that you have.
You can ask questions anytime.
There are a few things you should know about the study:
• You get to decide if you want to be in the study.
• You can say ‘No’ or you can say ‘Yes’.
• Whatever you decide is OK.
• If you say ‘Yes’, you can always say ‘No’ later.
• No one will be upset if you say ‘No’.
• We will still take good care of you no matter what you decide.

Why are we doing this research study?
We want to talk to you about this study because you have diabetes.
In this study we want to find out more about your health, and how diabetes affects you and your
family. We are trying to understand how children, teenagers, and young adults with diabetes
might develop nerve, heart, or eye damage.

What would happen if I join this study?
If you decide to be in the study:

•
•
•
•
•
•
•

•

We want to take some blood from your arm with a needle so we can do some tests on
the blood that tell us about your diabetes. This would take 10 – 20 minutes.
We want to look at some of the genes that we know have something to do with diabetes.
A sample from this blood will be kept in a freezer until we do tests on it.
We want to take some samples of your urine. This collection would take a few minutes.
We would give you a snack and/or a meal or meal voucher after the blood and urine are
collected.
We want to measure your height, weight, blood pressure, and waist. This will be a lot
like the measurements you get at your doctor’s office. This would take about 20
minutes.
We want to ask you some questions about feelings in your legs and feet. We want to
also test how well your feet can feel things using tools a lot like your doctor uses. This
would take about 10 minutes.
We want to place stickers on your wrists and left leg so that we can measure your
heartbeat. We would ask you to breathe normally for ten minutes. We would then check
your pulse on your thigh, and take your blood pressure again. We would touch your
wrist, neck, leg, and foot with a pen-shaped device. These tests will not hurt. They will
take about an hour and a half.
We want to ask you questions about your eyes and your eye doctor if you have one. We
would take pictures of the backs of your eyes using a special camera. This would take
about 30 minutes.

•

We want to ask you questions about how you take care of your diabetes. You and your
parents/caretakers will answer the questions. If you are over 8 years old, you will be
asked to fill out a self-report on your stage of puberty. If you are over 10 years old, you
will have some extra questions to answer about exercise, the foods you eat, smoking,
alcohol, and your sleeping habits. This would take about one hour.

•

We want to look in your medical record for information that is needed for the study.

•

We want to keep in contact with you in the future.

Could bad things happen if I join this research?
The researcher would need to test some of your blood. These pokes can hurt. Sometimes the
needle can leave a bruise on the skin. We can put a cream on your skin before we take blood.
This cream would help so it won’t hurt as much.
The researcher would need to ask you some questions. They might be hard to answer.

If I join the study would it help me?
We think being in this study would possibly help you because we will let you know what we
learn about your diabetes after the tests are done.
We hope to learn something from this study. And someday we hope it will help other kids who
have diabetes like you do.

What else should I know about this research?
Being in the study is your choice. You can say ‘Yes’ or ‘No’. Either way is OK.
It is also OK to say yes and change your mind later. You can stop being in the research at any
time. If you want to stop, please tell the research doctors.

Your information:
We don’t plan to share your information. Or tell anyone if you join this study. But, there are a
few reasons we would tell someone:
• If we found out you were in serious danger.
• If we found out someone else was in serious danger.
Here are some examples of when we would tell someone:
• If you told us you were being abused.
• If you told us you were going to hurt yourself or someone else.
We would tell to protect you or someone else from being hurt.

Can I do something else instead?
If you don’t want to be in the study, you don’t have to be.

Would I be paid if I do research?
Once you finish the study, we would give you $120 in gift cards. You would get less if you did
only some of the study. We will ask some children to repeat some of the tests, and if we ask
you to do this we will give you an extra $10 gift card. You should talk with your parents about
how you would like to use these gift cards.

If I have questions who do I ask?
You can talk to Dr. Pihoker or the study team at 206-987-2540. Ask us any questions you have.
You can ask questions any time. Take the time you need to make your choice.

What is research?
Research studies help us learn new things. We can test new ideas. First, we ask a question.
Then we try to find the answer.
This paper talks about our research study. We want you to ask us any questions that you have.
You can ask questions anytime.
There are a few things you should know about the study:
• You get to decide if you want to be in the study.
• You can say ‘No’ or you can say ‘Yes’.
• Whatever you decide is OK.
• If you say ‘Yes’, you can always say ‘No’ later.
• No one will be upset if you say ‘No’.
• We will still take good care of you no matter what you decide.

There are different kinds of diabetes. Children who get diabetes when they are very little may
have a special kind of diabetes caused by one of the genes in the body. These special kinds of
diabetes may run in the family. The treatment for these special kinds of diabetes may be different.
We want to find out if you have one of these special kinds of diabetes. We also want to learn more
about your health, and how diabetes affects you and your family.
We will ask you to do the things that have a check √ in the box:

Page 1 of 2. Seattle Children’s Monogenic Study, Initial Genetic Testing Assent. 08 2013

 We will take some blood from your arm with a needle.

The needle poke may hurt a little, but
the nurse can apply a numbing cream to the area so it will not hurt as much. You may have
a bruise on your arm but this should not last long. A sample from this blood will be kept in a
freezer until we do tests on it. We will then test for some of the changed genes that we see
in children who get diabetes when they are very little. This will help us to find out if you
have a special kind of diabetes.

 We will take a saliva (spit) sample. You will spit about 2 teaspoons of saliva into a container.
This will take between 10 and 20 minutes. We will then test for some of the changed genes
that we see in children who develop diabetes when they are very little. This will help us to
find out if you have a special kind of diabetes.

 We want to ask you questions about your health and how you take care of your diabetes.
We also want to ask you questions about who else in your family has diabetes. You and
your parents/caretakers will answer the questions. This will take about 20 minutes.
We will give you a $20 gift card for doing these blood tests, giving these spit samples, or

You don’t have to be in this study if you don’t want to. It is OK to say No. If you do say yes, you
can stop any time. We’ll answer all of your questions any time.

There are different kinds of diabetes. Some kinds of diabetes are caused by a change in one of
the genes in the body. These special kinds of diabetes may run in the family. The treatment for
these special kinds of diabetes may be different. A while ago, you gave a blood and/or spit sample
as part of the SEARCH study. This sample was tested for changes in genes that cause diabetes.
Your test came back positive. We want to make sure that this positive test is right. This might help
your doctor in taking care of you. We also want to find out how many children have this special
kind of diabetes that you probably have. We want to learn more about this special kind of diabetes
so that we can help other children.

There are different kinds of diabetes. Some kinds of diabetes are caused by a change in one of
the genes in the body. These special kinds of diabetes may run in the family. The treatment for
these special kinds of diabetes may be different. A while ago, your sister or brother was tested for
changes in genes that can cause diabetes. The test was positive. We want to find out if you also
have a change in the same gene. This will help us to understand if the changed gene is causing
your sister or brother’s diabetes. If you do not have diabetes and you are 10 years old or older, we
may test you for diabetes by measuring how much insulin is made after you eat.

We will ask you to do the things that have a check √ in the box:

 We will take some blood from your arm with a needle.

The needle poke may hurt a little, but
the nurse can apply a numbing cream to the area so it will not hurt as much. You may have
a bruise on your arm but this should not last long. A sample from this blood will be kept in a
freezer until we do tests on it. We will then test for the same changed gene(s) that we found
in your sister or brother.

 We will take a saliva (spit) sample. You will spit about 2 teaspoons of saliva into a container.
We will then test for the same changed gene that we found in your sister or brother. This
will take between 10 and 20 minutes.

 We will test to see if you have diabetes. You cannot eat any food, or drink anything except
water, the morning of the test. You might feel hungry before the test is done. We will put a
small tube called a catheter in a vein in your arm. The nurse will apply a numbing cream to
the area so it will not hurt as much. The needle-poke when we put the tube in your arm
may still hurt a little. Once the needle is in your arm, drawing the blood should not hurt you
at all. First we will take some blood from your arm. Then you will drink a milkshake-like
drink over a short period of time. After 2 hours, we will take some more blood from the
catheter that is in your arm. You may have a small bruise from where the needle was in
your arm, but this should not last a long time. After the test is done, you can eat breakfast.
A total of 2 blood samples will be drawn and the whole test should take about 2 to 2 ½
hours. We will let you know what we learn after the tests are done.

 We want to ask you questions about your health and, if you have diabetes, how you take
care of your diabetes. We also want to ask you questions about who else in your family has
diabetes. You and your parents/caretakers will answer the questions. This will take about
20 minutes.
We will give you a $20 gift card for doing these blood tests, giving these spit samples, taking the
diabetes milkshake test, or answering these questions.
If you don’t want to do something, tell us and we will stop.
You don’t have to be in this study if you don’t want to. It is OK to say No. If you do say yes, you
can stop any time. We’ll answer all of your questions any time.
