Hello and welcome to Diabetes Connections In the News! I’m Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now.
XX
Our top story this week.. Eli Lilly takes the first steps toward getting tirzepatide approved for people with type 1 diabetes. Tirzepatide is sold under the brand names Mounjaro for type 2 and Zepbound for obesity.
The main purpose of this study is to find out how well and how safely tirzepatide works in adults who have type 1 diabetes and obesity or are overweight. Participation in the study will last about 49 weeks.
Official Title
A Phase 3, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Tirzepatide Once Weekly Compared to Placebo in Adult Participants With Type 1 Diabetes and Obesity or Overweight
This is a big deal because, even though many people with type 1 are able to get a prescription for tirzepatide, it’s not approved for T1D and so insurers won’t usually cover it.
