Study Summary

This trial aims to better understand how T1D with overweight/obesity can reduce cardiometabolic risk by studying how their bodies respond to GLP-1 analogue therapy.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for young adults aged 18-30 with Type 1 Diabetes who are not overweight, use continuous glucose monitoring, have an HbA1c level ≤10%, and no severe kidney or liver issues. They must be willing to follow the study procedures for its duration and cannot be pregnant, lactating, or planning pregnancy.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests how a high-fat meal and insulin affect heart disease risk markers in people with Type 1 Diabetes by using two tests: a Hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp to assess insulin resistance and a High Fat Mixed Meal Tolerance Test to measure fat levels after eating.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include discomfort from the testing procedures such as feeling full or bloated after the high-fat meal test, reactions at the infusion site during the clamp procedure, and general discomfort from blood draws.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Is my profile suitable to partake in this clinical trial?

"Qualified individuals with type 1 diabetes between 18 to 30 years old can enrol in this medical trial, which has sought out 15 participants."

Answered by AI

Is this experiment open to elderly participants aged 80 and above?

"This clinical trial is exclusively recruiting patients aged 18-30. Conversely, 387 trials are open for minors and 1529 studies accept participants above the age of 65."

Answered by AI

Is it permissible to prescribe T1D treatments for young adults who have a body mass index below 25 kg/m2 according to the FDA?

"Our team at Power rates the safety of young adults with T1D and a body mass index below 25kg/m2 as 1, given that this is only in Phase 1 trials. This indicates limited evidence regarding both efficacy and safety."

Answered by AI

Is enrollment for this clinical trial still available?

"As viewed on clinicaltrials.gov, this medical research is not presently enrolling participants. It was first posted November 1st 2023 and the most recent update occurred October 23rd of that same year.
