Triple Therapy in T1D: Breakthrough T1D Researchers Launch a Clinical Trial
Since its discovery nearly 100 years ago, insulin has been the only effective treatment for type 1 diabetes (T1D). Improvements in insulin delivery—from the first human insulin in the 1970s to the introduction of insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)—have been beneficial, but an overwhelming majority of people with T1D—83% of youth and 79% […]
Advancing the Cure with Type 1 Diabetes Clinical Trials
Breakthrough T1D funds type 1 diabetes (T1D) clinical trials that are critical to bringing new devices and treatments to people with this disease. Currently, there are more than 70 Breakthrough T1D-funded clinical trials, to both prevent and treat this disease and its complications. We hope that, ultimately, these trials will lead to a cure for […]
In First-In-Human Tests, New Artificial Pancreas System Smartphone App Shows Reliable Glucose Control
Artificial pancreas (AP) systems “close the loop” between continuous glucose monitors and insulin pumps using algorithms to manage insulin. Learn more about Breakthrough T1D's funding of groundbreaking AP technology research.
