First seen Jan 05, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 18 times
Summary
This study tested whether combining two immune therapies—abatacept (injected weekly) and nasal insulin (sprayed into the nose)—can help preserve the pancreas's ability to make insulin in people recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. 68 participants aged 6 to 21 took part for 48 weeks of treatment plus 48 weeks of follow-up. The goal is to make blood sugar control easier and reduce the need for injected insulin.
