New Additional Treatments Being Developed for Type 1 Diabetes

Updated

Abstract

A clinical roadmap for integrating adjunctive metabolic therapies into type 1 diabetes care is proposed.

  • Cardiometabolic risk, weight gain, and glycemic variability are ongoing challenges for those with type 1 diabetes.
  • Incretin-based therapies and amylin analogs may serve as initial, effective options for metabolic management.
  • Sodium-glucose linked transporter inhibitors could be safely utilized with the aid of continuous ketone monitoring.
  • Emerging therapeutic targets include glucagon modulation and fibroblast growth factor 21 analogs.
