New safety test aims to unlock Life-Improving drug for type 1 diabetes

NCT ID NCT07225465

Summary

This study aims to make a promising diabetes drug safer for people with type 1 diabetes. The drug, Dapagliflozin, helps control blood sugar and weight but carries a risk of a dangerous condition called diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Researchers are testing if using a continuous ketone monitor with a lower alarm threshold (1.0 mmol/L) is better than a higher one (1.5 mmol/L) at preventing DKA in 115 adults with type 1 diabetes. The goal is to find the best warning system so patients can get the drug's benefits without the serious risk.
