Summary

Blood glucose management in type 1 diabetes (T1D) remains a challenge, with only \~30% of adults within the recommended consensus guidelines. Novel drugs like glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP)/GLP-1RAs have emerged as promising add-ons to insulin in T1D.

This application has been designed to test in a prospective study whether adding a new medicine called tirzepatide (GIP/GLP-1RA) to the usual insulin therapy would make a difference for people with T1D in terms of better glucose control.

Conditions

  • Type 1 Diabetes (T1D)

Interventions

DRUG

Tirzepatide

Tirzepatide is a clear, colorless to slightly yellow solution available in cartons containing four pre-filled single-dose pens or one single-dose vial: 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 7.5 mg, 10 mg, 12.5 mg, or 15 mg per 0.5 mL in a single-dose pen or vial. In this study, the investigators will start with the recommended starting dosage of tirzepatide: 2.5 mg injected subcutaneously once weekly (for four weeks). After four weeks, the dosage will be increased to 5 mg once weekly injected subcutaneously for 12 weeks.
