GLP ‐1‐Based Therapies in Type 1 Diabetes: Emerging Evidence on Cardiovascular, Renal, and Safety Outcomes

Diabetes Obes MetabPublished Review

Authors' conclusion

Current real-world evidence suggests that GLP-1-based therapies in T1D may provide clinically meaningful CV and renal benefits with a reassuring safety profile; however, adequately powered randomised trials are needed to confirm these findings.

Study context

Population
Adults with T1D3 observational studies
Comparison
GLP-1-based therapies in T1D
Outcome
CV, clinical and renal outcomes

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

  • Clinically meaningful reductions in all-cause mortality, hospitalisation, HF and composite cardiovascular (CV) outcomes
  • Lower risks of early eGFR decline and end-stage kidney disease
  • Evidence entirely observational

Safety

DKA and severe hypoglycaemia

No consistent increase in DKA or severe hypoglycemia
