The Health Research Department is offering this grant to establish and support a Central Primary Reference Laboratory (CPRL) focused on improving and standardizing HbA1c and C-peptide measurements. This grant is for the critical purpose of enhancing diabetes care, diagnosis, and management. Standardization of HbA1c is vital for accurate diabetes diagnosis, as highlighted by international experts. Additionally, improving C-peptide measurement is crucial due to growing evidence that preserving endogenous insulin production in recent-onset Type 1 diabetes offers significant long-term clinical benefits. The selected CPRL will play a key role in advancing the precision and reliability of these essential diabetes biomarkers, ultimately improving patient outcomes.

| Description: | This FOA invites applications for a Central Primary Reference Laboratory (CPRL) that will be responsible for improvement and standardization of HbA1c measurements and C-peptide measurements, important for care of diabetes. The significance of HbA1c standardization program has recently been stressed by an international expert committee calling for improved measurement of HbA1c for the diagnosis of diabetes and the importance of C-peptide measurement is heightened based on increasing evidence that preservation of endogenous insulin production in Type 1 diabetes can provide significant long-term clinical benefits in subjects with recent onset Type 1 Diabetes. |
