Podcasts about t1d

In today's episode, I'm boiling down everything I've observed in 7 years of coaching people impacted by T1D into one essential takeaway. In my experience, there is this ONE thing that is at the base of every T1D transformation, no matter who the person is, when they were diagnosed, or what their story is. I've seen it for myself and I've witnessed it for every single one of our clients here at Risely. Today, I'm sharing the number one thing that YOU can do to lower your A1C.  If you're waking up every day frustrated and feeling like you're not getting any closer to creating positive change in your life or with your diabetes, then this episode is for you!

XX The Primary Oral Insulin Trial (POInT) is the first large-scale clinical trial to test whether giving at-risk children daily oral insulin could prevent or delay type 1 diabetes (T1D). Conducted by researchers from Helmholtz Munich and the Technical University of Munich across five European countries, the study enrolled more than 1,000 children with a genetic risk for T1D. Results published in The Lancet show that while oral insulin did not prevent the development of islet autoantibodies—an early sign of diabetes—it was safe and well tolerated. Importantly, researchers found that some children who received oral insulin developed diabetes more slowly than those given a placebo, suggesting potential protective effects in certain genetic subgroups.   Further analysis revealed that the response to treatment depended on the child's insulin gene variant. Children with genetic versions that raise diabetes risk appeared to benefit, showing delayed onset of the disease, while those without the risk variant did not. These findings point toward a future of personalized prevention, where genetic screening could help identify which children might benefit most from oral insulin. Researchers will continue following the participants until age 12 to assess long-term effects. The study marks a major milestone in decades of diabetes prevention research, highlighting both the promise and complexity of developing tailored, early interventions against type 1 diabetes. XX Joint US-Chinese research looking at generating new beta cells from stomach cells. Upon turning on the "genetic switch," the human stomach cells were converted to insulin-secreting cells within the mice and resembled pancreatic beta cells with respect to gene and protein expression. Encouragingly, when those experiments were done with diabetic mice, insulin secreted from the transformed human cells helped control blood sugar levels and ameliorated diabetes. The scientists hope that a similar approach can be taken to convert cells from a patient's own stomach into insulin-secreting cells directly within the body. Importantly, additional studies are needed to address if this approach is safe and effective to be used in patients. https://www.technologynetworks.com/cell-science/news/human-stomach-cells-tweaked-to-make-insulin-406694 XX A new study in Nature Metabolism may help explain why children born to mothers with type 1 diabetes are less likely to develop the disease early in life compared to those whose fathers or siblings have it. Researchers looked at nearly 2,000 mothers and their children and found that  kids whose moms have type 1 diabetes show changes in their DNA that may actually help protect them. These aren't genetic mutations, but epigenetic changes — chemical tags that turn certain genes on or off. The study found these changes in genes tied to the immune system and type 1 diabetes risk, suggesting that a mother's condition during pregnancy can shape her child's immune response in a protective way. Scientists identified more than 500 areas of DNA where these changes occurred, many in regions that control how the body's immune system works. Most of the changes appeared to calm down the kind of overactive immune response that leads to type 1 diabetes. Researchers even created a "methylation score" to help measure this protective effect. They say the next step is to confirm these results in more diverse groups and figure out exactly how these DNA changes help prevent early diabetes. https://www.news-medical.net/news/20251110/Maternal-type-1-diabetes-may-protect-children-from-developing-the-disease.aspx XX A new study from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University reveals that sons born to mothers with type 1 diabetes may develop early vascular dysfunction—independently of metabolic health. The finding may help shape future strategies to prevent cardiovascular disease early in life.     Children of women with type 1 diabetes are known to be at increased risk of developing cardiovascular diseases. This new study, published in Cell Reports Medicine, is the first to show that the risk is linked to early dysfunction in blood vessel cells in sons, even before any metabolic issues arise. The team is now investigating the long-term effects of maternal diabetes, with a particular focus on why sons seem to be affected earlier than daughters. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-11-sons-mothers-diabetes-early-vascular.html XX A new study presented at Kidney Week 2025 has shown that the drug finn-uh-near-own  a nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid-receptor antagonist, significantly reduced albuminuria—a key marker of kidney damage—in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). This is the first major breakthrough for this population in more than 30 years. Researchers found that patients taking finerenone saw a 25% average reduction in albuminuria compared to placebo, an improvement that suggests a lower long-term risk for dialysis or kidney transplant. The phase 3 FINE-ONE trial involved 242 adults with T1D and CKD, and results showed benefits as early as three months. The drug was generally well tolerated, with side effects similar to those seen in patients with type 2 diabetes, though mild hyperkalemia (high potassium levels) was slightly more common. Experts say the findings could change the way doctors treat kidney complications in type 1 diabetes, an area that hasn't seen new therapies since the early 1990s. Currently, treatment options rely on blood pressure and blood sugar management, along with renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors. Finerenone, which is already approved for type 2 diabetes-related CKD, targets overactivation of a receptor that drives kidney damage. Based on these results, Bayer plans to seek FDA approval in 2026 for use in people with T1D and CKD. Researchers and clinicians alike are calling the study "groundbreaking," noting that it opens the door to future research on how finerenone might not just slow kidney decline—but possibly prevent it altogether. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/finerenone-offers-hope-kidney-disease-type-1-diabetes-2025a1000uzi?form=login   XX This week, Tandem Diabetes Care (Nasdaq:TNDM) announced a major milestone for its Mobi miniature durable insulin pump system. San Diego-based Tandem revealed that it received FDA approval for the Android version of its Mobi mobile app. Clearance brings Mobi — which the company describes as the world's smallest, durable automated insulin delivery system — to more users. The pump, which pairs with Tandem's Control-IQ+ algorithm, previously worked with iOS software.   Tandem — one of the largest diabetes tech companies in the world — expects to begin a limited rollout next month, followed by full commercial availability in early 2026. This marks the latest milestone for the company, which continues to expand its offerings and widen its reach within the diabetes patient population.   We had a great interview with Tandem on our previous episode, but as I said at the time, it was coming before their earnings call. So here's an update: The company plans to submit the tubeless mobi to the fda before the end of this year.. possible approval and shipping date is hoped for by middle of 2026. Trials for their fully closed loop next-generation algorithm which we tlkaed abou ton the show should be launched in 2026 The Sigi patch pump will be developed and launched as a next-generation version of the Mobi Great job by Dr. David ? Ahn – he posted on IG after getting a message from tandem CEO John Sheridan? 1. First, the Tandem X3 *is* still absolutely in development, contrary to my speculation In yesterday's video. As many of you appropriately pointed out, there is definitely a market for a 300 unit pump, a pump with a screen, and a pump that does not require smartphone control. So from our brief chat, the sense I got that is that the X3 would be more of a refresh of the X2 with newer components, such as a USB-C connector and better memory, rather than a total redesign from the ground up. In terms of timing, all I could get was that it was "not too far distant in the future," which could mean anything I guess, but at least it's still on the way! 2. Next up, he also reassured me that they are working closely with Dexcom to support the G7 15 Day sensor within the next few months. I suspected as much, but it's always good to hear confirmation. 3. Lastly, he did confirm that Tandem is far along in developing a Caregiver/Follow app to allow the remote viewing of glucose and insulin data from a Tandem pump. He explained that it will be based on Sugarmate, the popular diabetes data dashboard app that Tandem acquired back in Jun 2020. While I don't know if every feature will make it into the Tandem caregiver app, Sugarmate is well-liked for its highly customizable dashboard and highly configurable alerts. Sugarmate even has the option to send a text message or phone call for urgent lows. Regardless, a true follow/Caregiver app will be welcomed with open arms by all caregivers and Tandem users who use Libre 3 Plus. https://time.com/7318020/worlds-top-healthtech-companies-2025/ XX Senseonics submits Eversense 365 – their year long implantable CGM for a CE mark, European Approval and expect to launch there soon. Eversense will be integrated with the sequel twist pump – again I'm hearing soon but no timeline. Intersting to note that one year inseration was approved in the US just about a year ago, so the first patients will be having their CGMs changed out – for the first time – pretty soon. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/senseonics-q2-2025-sales-beat-ce-mark/ XX A confusing study out of Rutgers - these researcher say  metformin reduces some of the key benefits normally gained from regular physical activity. These include improvements in blood vessel health, physical fitness, and the body's ability to regulate blood sugar. Since 2006, doctors have typically encouraged patients with elevated blood sugar levels to combine metformin with exercise, expecting that the two proven treatments would produce stronger results together. However, the new research suggests this may not be the case. In this study, Exercise alone improved vascular insulin sensitivity, meaning blood vessels responded better to insulin and allowed more blood flow to muscles. This matters because insulin's ability to open blood vessels helps shuttle glucose out of the bloodstream and into tissues, lowering blood sugar after meals. But when metformin was added, the improvements shrank. The drug also diminished gains in aerobic fitness and reduced the positive effects on inflammation and fasting glucose. The findings don't mean people should stop taking metformin or exercising, Malin said. Instead, it raises urgent questions for doctors about how the two treatments can be combined and the need for close monitoring. Malin hopes future research will uncover strategies that preserve the benefits of both. https://scitechdaily.com/popular-diabetes-drug-metformin-may-cancel-out-exercise-benefits-study-warns/ XX XX https://www.medtechdive.com/news/Revvity-Sanofi-diabetes-test-Kihealth-seed-round/802133/   XX Dexcom recalled an Android app for its G6 glucose sensor due to a software problem that could cause the app to terminate unexpectedly. The issue could cause users to miss alarms, alerts or notifications related to estimated glucose values, according to a Food and Drug Administration database entry posted Oct. 30. The glucose sensor and the app are still available, but Dexcom required users to update the app to a new version. Dexcom began the recall on Aug. 28. The FDA designated the event as a Class 1 recall, the most serious kind. Dexcom sent a notification to customers in September about the software bug, which applies to version 1.15 of the G6 Android app. To use the app, customers must update it to a new version, according to the entry. https://www.medtechdive.com/news/dexcom-recall-g6-cgm-app/804630/ XX https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/automated-insulin-delivery-boosts-glycemic-control-youth-2025a1000ub3 XX Tidepool partners with smart ring maker OURA.. press release says: to support a groundbreaking dataset intended to be broadly available for diabetes research, with participation limited to individuals who opt in through Tidepool.         Tidepool will pair biometric data from Oura Ring – sleep, activity, heart rate, temperature trends, and menstrual cycles – with diabetes device data, including continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) and insulin pumps. The result will provide researchers with an unprecedented dataset to accelerate the development of new clinical guidelines, next-generation diabetes technology, and personalized care models.   Recruitment is expected to launch in early 2026 through an IRB-approved study. By opting in to this study, participants consent to sharing their data with Tidepool's Big Data Donation Project, where data is de-identified and, with participant consent, shared with academics, researchers, and industry innovators to accelerate diabetes research. https://aijourn.com/tidepool-collaborates-with-oura-to-advance-inclusive-diabetes-research-through-wearables/ XX Eli Lilly launches two new clinical trials for baricitinib. These phase 3 trials will investigate whether the drug can delay T1D onset or progression and will open for recruitment soon. Baricitinib has the potential to extend the "honeymoon period" of T1D, meaning that it could preserve remaining insulin-producing beta cells earlier in disease progression. More beta cells mean better blood sugar management—and potentially reduced long-term complications. JAK inhibitors, including baricitinib, are already FDA-approved for other autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, alopecia, and more. JAK signaling pathways are associated with overactive immune responses, so blocking this pathway may turn down the immune response. The phase 2 Breakthrough T1D-funded BANDIT study was key in showing that this drug is safe and effective in T1D. Importantly, baricitinib is a once-daily oral pill—meaning its use is simple and easy.   https://www.breakthrought1d.org/news-and-updates/two-new-trials-baricitinib-to-delay-t1d/ XX   Insulet is taking diabetes awareness into the workplace. Having found 79% of people with diabetes have faced bias or misunderstanding at work, the medtech giant is rolling out a range of resources intended to trigger changes in how workplaces approach the condition. Lots going on for Diabetes Awareness month.. some notables.. Insulet's "The Day Diabetes Showed up to Work" campaign. based on a survey of almost 10,000 people 79% of people with diabetes have faced bias or misunderstanding at work,.   Almost 90% of people with diabetes surveyed reported experiencing barriers at work due to their condition, and more than 40% of people with diabetes and caregivers said they have workplace-related anxiety tied to the metabolic disease. Around one-quarter of respondents reported fears that diabetes could limit opportunities or lead to workplace discrimination and judgment, and a similar proportion of people said they conceal their condition. https://www.fiercepharma.com/marketing/widespread-workplace-challenges-people-diabetes-spark-insulet-campaign XX New directive issued by the Trump administration could mean people seeking visas to live in the U.S. might be rejected if they have certain medical conditions, including diabetes or obesity.   The guidance, issued in a cable the State Department sent to embassy and consular officials and examined by KFF Health News, directs visa officers to deem applicants ineligible to enter the U.S. for several new reasons, including age or the likelihood they might rely on public benefits.   The guidance says that such people could become a "public charge" — a potential drain on U.S. resources — because of their health issues or age.   The cable's language appears at odds with the Foreign Affairs Manual, the State Department's own handbook, which says that visa officers cannot reject an application based on "what if" scenarios, Wheeler said.   The guidance directs visa officers to develop "their own thoughts about what could lead to some sort of medical emergency or sort of medical costs in the future," he said. "That's troubling because they're not medically trained, they have no experience in this area, and they shouldn't be making projections based on their own personal knowledge or bias."   Immigrants already undergo a medical exam by a physician who's been approved by a U.S. embassy. https://www.npr.org/2025/11/12/nx-s1-5606348/immigrants-visas-health-conditions-trump-guidance XX SAN DIEGO---Nov. 14, 2025—DexCom, Inc. (NASDAQ: DXCM), the global leader in glucose biosensing, today unveiled 16 new diabetes advocates to represent people living with diabetes globally as part of Dexcom's World Diabetes Day campaign. The advocates – ranging from ages six to 68, spanning various types of diabetes, and hailing from four continents and five countries – were selected from 1,000 open call submissions based on their experiences advocating for people with diabetes in their communities. While each person's experience with diabetes is unique, they share a common passion for advocacy – and use of Dexcom's glucose biosensing technology. "Through advocacy, I strive to show others, especially children and newly diagnosed patients, that diabetes is not a limitation but an opportunity to grow stronger, inspire resilience and pursue ambitious goals," said Maria Alejandra Jove Valerio, one of Dexcom's new advocates. "What began as a diagnosis at age seven has grown into a lifelong mission to uplift others." This effort represents the first time Dexcom has sourced voices from the broader diabetes community specifically for its World Diabetes Day campaign, reinforcing Dexcom's history of and commitment to giving real people with diabetes a platform to share their story on a global stage. Through engaging, editorial-style portraits and deeply personal stories, the campaign highlights each advocate's personal experience with diabetes, what misconceptions about diabetes they'd like to dispel and how they want to inspire others with diabetes to discover what they're made of. To prepare for the spotlight, the group of advocates met in Los Angeles for a World Diabetes Day photoshoot which included a surprise visit from Grammy-nominated artist, actor, producer and Dexcom Warrior Lance Bass and author, producer, actress and Stelo*Ambassador Retta. This visit offered the advocates an opportunity to exchange stories and personal perspectives on the meaning of diabetes advocacy and how they live it each day. Behind the lens at the shoot was another member of the diabetes community—photographer Tommy Lundberg who lives with Type 1 diabetes. "Directing this photoshoot was nothing short of inspiring. Each of these advocates has a unique an XX On what would have been the 100th birthday of its visionary founder Alfred E. Mann, MannKind Corporation (Nasdaq: MNKD), in partnership with Alfred E. Mann Charities and The Diabetes Link, announced the launch of the Centennial Al Mann Scholarship. The new program will distribute $100,000 in scholarship funds to support at least 10 young adult students living with diabetes as they pursue higher education in life sciences.   Launched in Diabetes Awareness Month, the scholarship program honors Alfred E.

Type 1 diabetes doesn't always travel alone — in fact, it often brings other autoimmune conditions along for the ride. In this episode, Dr. Jeremy Pettus and Dr. Steve Edelman shine a light on the most common ones that tend to show up with T1D, why they happen in the first place, when you should be screened, and what subtle symptoms should raise a red flag.They walk through what's common but manageable,  like thyroid issues and celiac disease — as well as what's rare but critical not to miss, like Addison's disease (adrenal failure), which can be dangerous if left undiagnosed but incredibly treatable once caught early.Most importantly, Jeremy and Steve explain how simple blood tests can catch these conditions before they spiral, and how the right medication can completely change how you feel day-to-day.Key Topics:• T1D & Autoimmunity 101: Why having one autoimmune condition raises your risk for others• Thyroid Disorders: The most common — hyper vs. hypo, yearly screening, easy treatment• Celiac Disease: Why it's up to 10x more common in T1D and often missed without symptoms• Addison's Disease Awareness: The “silent” cortisol deficiency you don't want to miss• Proactive Care Mindset: How to build autoimmune screening into your diabetes warranty plan ★ Support this podcast ★

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/advances-in-type-1-diabetes-science-and-tech/ This article is part of “Innovations In: Type 1 Diabetes,” an editorially independent special report that was produced with financial support from Vertex. XX More evidence linking COVID 19 to type 1 diabetes.. but still exactly why is a mystery. During the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an unexpected increase in the number of cases of type 1 diabetes in Sweden, particularly among children under 5 and young adult men. The infection accelerated the onset of diabetes among children between the ages of 5 and 9. The researchers looked at data from a 17-year period on the incidence of type 1 diabetes among all people under the age of 30 in Sweden. In addition, they compared the risk of developing diabetes among 720,000 individuals with positive COVID-19 tests against a control group of 3.5 million people. The findings are published in the journal Diabetologia. The number of diabetes cases increased by 12% in 2021 and 9% in 2022 compared with previous years. In 2023, the number of cases was back to a normal level. Despite this, the researchers cannot distinguish a clear connection between COVID-19 infection and diabetes, except for children between 5 and 9 years old. They had an increased risk of type 1 diabetes about one month after a COVID-19 infection even though their total risk did not increase. "However, it's clear that the COVID-19 vaccine can be ruled out as a cause of the increase in diabetes cases. The recommendation for the age group where we saw the strongest increase was not to get vaccinated. In addition, other studies on adults have shown that vaccination reduces the risk of developing type 1 diabetes after a COVID infection." https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-10-diabetes-young-people-pandemic.html XX A new gene therapy approach aimed at protecting people with type 1 diabetes from developing diabetic kidney disease—a serious and common complication of the condition, has shown promising results in a University of Bristol study. Findings from this new study, published in Molecular Therapy, demonstrated a 64% reduction in a damage indicator for kidney disease, paving the way for a potential new treatment. The study, explored the potential of delivering a protein called VEGF-C directly into kidney cells. Previous studies have shown VEGFC could protect against kidney disease as it helps keep blood vessels in the kidney filter healthy, repairing early signs of diabetes-related kidney damage. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-10-gene-therapy-kidney-disease-diabetes.html XX The FDA has agreed to consider Afrezza inhaled insulin for children and teens. The company said in August that it submitted a supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for Afrezza in the pediatric population and it's been assigned a decision deadline date of the end of May, 2026. Afrezza first recieved FDA approval for adults (age 18 and up) in June 2014 https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/fda-accepts-application-mannkind-inhaled-insulin-kids/ Update on inhaled insulin for kids.. in the open-label, randomized, phase 3 INHALE-1 clinical trial Afrezza demonstrated safe and effective replacement for rapid-acting meal insulin in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D and demonstrates comparable glycemic control to injected rapid-acting insulin. The INHALE-1 clinical trial assessed the safety and efficacy of Afrezza among children and adolescents with T1D, including a total of 230 patients aged 4 to 17 years. Researchers used basal injected insulin and randomly assigned inhaled insulin or rapid-acting analogue for meals, evaluating the change in hemoglobin A1c levels at 26 weeks. After completing 26 weeks of randomly assigned treatment with either Afrezza or rapid-acting insulin injections combined with basal insulin, participants continued receiving the inhaled insulin until week 52 for an extension phase to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Afrezza with continued use.1,2 https://www.pharmacytimes.com/view/inhaled-insulin-demonstrates-comparable-safety-lung-function-and-efficacy-to-injectable-insulin-in-type-1-diabetes XX Eli Lilly released the results of two new Phase 3 trials of an experimental GLP-1 pill that the company says could become a “foundational treatment” for type 2 diabetes. The Indianapolis-based drugmaker plans to submit global regulatory applications for orforglipron in the treatment of type 2 diabetes next year. The company said it will seek approval of the drug as an obesity medication by the end of 2025. Lilly is trying to build on the success of its Mounjaro/Zepbound franchise by offering patients a pill instead of an injection. But the company is trailing behind rival Novo Nordisk in developing an oral alternative, and data released so far has raised some skepticism among investors. A study released in August showed that orforglipron could help patients lose an average of about 12% of their body weight. Wall Street had been expecting more; Lilly's injectable drug Zepbound produced weight loss of as much as 21%, and Novo Nordisk has achieved 15% weight loss percentages for both oral and injectable versions of its Wegovy medication.   https://www.fiercebiotech.com/biotech/eli-lillys-orforglipron-bests-farxiga-padding-oral-glp-1-case-pair-phase-3-diabetes-wins   XX XX UF Health Cancer Center researchers have found a surprising culprit behind common health problems such as obesity, diabetes and fatty liver disease: silent genetic glitches in the blood system that occur naturally as people age. The findings, published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation, mean that in the future, simple blood tests could be developed to identify people most at risk early on, helping prevent chronic illnesses and cancer through strategies like diet or lifestyle changes. As people age, stem cells in the bone marrow that produce blood cells gradually accumulate mutations in their DNA. Most mutations don't cause any issues, but sometimes blood stem cells with a mutation can start crowding out their peers. Called clonal hematopoiesis, this condition affects about 10% of older people and is associated with an increased risk of blood cancers like leukemia. It's also linked to a higher risk of obesity and diabetes. But the prevailing thinking was that obesity and related conditions promoted blood cell changes, not the other way around. The new study reverses that. The implications could be far-reaching, particularly as obesity has now overtaken smoking as the most significant and preventable risk factor for cancer. The team is studying how the mutations drive disease. Next, they plan to test how drugs like those commonly used to treat diabetes and new popular weight loss drugs might help reverse or prevent diseases caused by blood cell changes. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-10-hidden-blood-mutations-obesity-diabetes.html XX A new ultra rapid insulin continues to move forward. A phase 3 clinical trial of BioChaperone Lispro (liss-pro) conducted in China found it safe and effective compared with Humalog along with a significant reduction of the rise of blood glucose after a test meal.     These results complete and confirm the positive outcomes previously obtained with THDB0206 injection in people with Type 2 Diabetes It combines Adocia's proprietary BioChaperone® technology with insulin lispro, the active ingredient in the standard of care, Humalog® (Eli Lilly).   This innovative formulation acts significantly faster https://pharmatimes.com/news/ultra-rapid-insulin-shows-promise-in-phase-3-trial-for-type-1-diabetes/   Poor blood sugar control in adolescent patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) may be associated with a higher risk of neuropathy in adulthood, according to recent research from the University of Michigan.1 The study included children diagnosed with T1D between 1990-1992 who were recruited into the Cognition and Longitudinal Assessment of Risk Factors over 30 Years cohort study in Australia. Investigators collected HbA1c from medical records, and microvascular complications were assessed through self-reports, clinical screenings, retinal photographs, and urinary albumin-creatinine testing.3   A total of 30 children were recruited from the original cohort with a mean diagnosis age of 2.9 years.

This episode is in honor of Kylee Breann Whitley, a daughter, a sister, an aunt, and a friend living with type 1 diabetes. In this deeply emotional conversation, Dr. Joren Whitley opens up about the life and loss of his sister, Kylee-a bright, adventurous young woman who lived with type 1 diabetes and battled diabulimia, an often-misunderstood eating disorder. This is not just about loss, it is a call to action for families, friends, and healthcare providers, and what we can all learn from one family's journey. While this episode touches on heavy topics, it's ultimately one of love, remembrance, and hope. If you know someone living with type 1 diabetes, what you hear today could truly save a life. Please share it and help save lives. Quick Takeaways:The annual mortality rate for diabulimia is estimated to be 34.8% (yet it wasn't recognized in literature until after 2007).“I help hundreds of people every single week, and I couldn't help the one person who was closest to me.” – Dr. Joren WhitleyA type 1 diabetes diagnosis through a sibling's eyes: “I just remember her struggling.”The hidden danger of diabulimia: how insulin omission and lack of awareness can turn deadly.The call to action: what Kylee's story teaches us about advocacy, early intervention, and the power of speaking up.

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX French drugmaker Sanofi says it would offer a month's supply of any of its insulin products for $35 to all patients in the U.S. with a valid prescription, regardless of insurance status. The program, originally meant for uninsured diabetes patients, would now include those with commercial insurance or Medicare, the drugmaker said. Patients will be able to purchase any combination, type, and quantity of Sanofi insulins with a valid prescription for the fixed monthly price of $35, starting January 1. Lilly and Novo also have similar programs through which they offer insulin products for $35 a month for U.S. patients regardless of whether the patients have insurance. There is no law at work here – the only legislation that has changed the price of insulin came with the Inflation Reduction Act in 2022 with the Medicare cap. Helping lower the cost here, biosimilars hitting the market and the huge profitability for GLP-1 drugs for Novo and Lilly https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/sanofi-offer-all-insulin-products-35-per-month-us-2025-09-26/ XX A pill typically prescribed for rheumatoid arthritis and alopecia might help slow the progression of type 1 diabetes, a new study says. Baricitinib (bare-uh-SIT-nib) safely preserved the body's own insulin production in people newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes.. and their diabetes started progressing once they stopped taking baricitinib, results show. They produced less insulin and had less stable blood sugar levels.   Baricitinib works by quelling signals in the body that spur on the immune system, and is already approved for treating autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis and alopecia, researchers said.   “Among the promising agents shown to preserve beta cell function in type 1 diabetes, baricitinib stands out because it can be taken orally, is well tolerated, including by young children, and is clearly efficacious,” Waibel said. “We are hopeful that larger phase III trials with baricitinib are going to commence soon, in people with recently diagnosed type 1 diabetes as well as in earlier stages to delay insulin dependence,” she added. “If these trials are successful, the drug could be approved for type 1 diabetes treatment within five years.”   Findings presented at medical meetings should be considered preliminary until published in a peer-reviewed journal.   https://www.usnews.com/news/health-news/articles/2025-09-23/pill-effective-in-slowing-type-1-diabetes-progression XX An existing transplant drug has shown promise in slowing the progression of type 1 diabetes in newly diagnosed young people, potentially paving the way for the first therapy that modifies the disease after diagnosis. The Drug, called ATG, is currently used together with other medicines to prevent and treat the body from rejecting a kidney transplant. It can also be used to treat rejection following transplantation of other organs, such as hearts, gastrointestinal organs, or lungs. The researchers studied 117 people aged five to 25, who'd been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes within the past three to nine weeks. The participants were from 14 centers across eight European countries and were randomized to be given different doses of ATG (0.1, 0.5, 1.5, or 2.5 mg/kg) or a placebo. ATG was given as a two-day intravenous (IV) infusion. The main goal was to see how well the pancreas could still make insulin after 12 months, measured by C-peptide levels during a special meal test. C-peptide is released into the blood along with insulin by the pancreas.   The findings are promising, showing that ATG, even at a relatively low dose, can slow the loss of insulin-producing cells in young people newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. The lower dose also caused fewer side effects, making it a more practical option. https://newatlas.com/disease/antithymocyte-globulin-newly-diagnosed-type-1-diabetes/     XX The FDA has delayed its feedback on Lexicon Pharmaceuticals' application to bring Zynquista (sotagliflozin) to people with type 1 diabetes. The agency had planned to respond this month but will now wait until the fourth quarter after reviewing new data from ongoing studies. Zynquista, an oral drug meant to be used with insulin, has already been approved for heart failure (marketed as Inpefa). But in type 1 diabetes, it faces safety concerns: last year an FDA advisory committee voted 11–3 that its benefits don't outweigh the increased risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). The FDA later issued a complete response letter rejecting the drug. Lexicon is still pushing forward, hoping its additional submissions will strengthen Zynquista's case for type 1 diabetes approval. https://www.biospace.com/fda/after-fda-rejection-lexicons-type-1-diabetes-drug-hit-with-another-regulatory-delay     XX A common but often undiagnosed genetic condition may be causing delays in type 2 diabetes diagnoses and increasing the risk of serious complications for thousands of Black and South Asian men in the UK—and potentially millions worldwide. A new study found around one in seven Black and one in 63 South Asian men in the UK carry a genetic variant known as G6PD deficiency. Men with G6PD deficiency are, on average, diagnosed with type 2 diabetes four years later than those without the gene variant. But despite this, fewer than one in 50 have been diagnosed with the condition.   G6PD deficiency does not cause diabetes, but it makes the widely used HbA1c blood test—which diagnoses and monitors diabetes—appear artificially low. This can mislead doctors and patients, resulting in delayed diabetes diagnosis and treatment.   The study found men with G6PD deficiency are at a 37% higher risk of developing diabetes-related microvascular complications, such as eye, kidney, and nerve damage, compared to other men with diabetes.   "This study highlights important evidence that must be used to tackle these health inequalities and improve outcomes for Black communities. Preventative measures are now needed to ensure that Black people, especially men, are not underdiagnosed or diagnosed too late." https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-09-hidden-genetic-delay-diabetes-diagnosis.html XX Novo Nordisk today announced the resubmission of its Biologics License Application (BLA) to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Awiqli® (insulin icodec) injection, a once-weekly basal insulin treatment for adults living with type 2 diabetes. If approved, Awiqli® would become the first once-weekly basal insulin available in the United States, providing an alternative to daily basal insulin injections for adults living with type 2 diabetes.   The resubmission is based on results from the ONWARDS type 2 diabetes phase 3a program for once-weekly Awiqli® which is comprised of five randomized, active-controlled, treat-to-target clinical trials in approximately 4,000 adults with type 2 diabetes. The clinical program evaluated Awiqli® vs. daily basal insulin and the primary endpoint in these trials was change in A1C from baseline.1-5 Awiqli® is approved in the EU, along with 12 additional countries. In addition, regulatory filings have been completed in several other countries, with further regulatory decisions expected in 2025. XX Interesting news from Sequel Med Tech – they've signed an agreement with Arecor to pair the twiist pump with AT278 an ultra-concentrated (500U/mL), ultra-rapid insulin in development. They also have a deal with Medtronic to develop insulin for new pumps. This insulin isn't yet approved, it's 5 times stronger than standard fast acting  it's hoped that a clinical study will begin next year. Arecor says its insulin could potentially be the only option capable of enabling and catalyzing the next generation of longer-wear and miniaturized automated insulin delivery systems.   https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/sequel-arecor-develop-rapid-insulin-twiist/ XX Tandem Diabetes Care announes its t:slim X2™ insulin pump with Control-IQ+ automated insulin delivery (AID) technology is now cleared for use with Eli Lilly and Company's Lyumjev® (insulin lispro-aabc injection) ultra-rapid acting insulin in the United States (U.S.).   – The t:slim X2 insulin pump with Control-IQ+ technology is now cleared for use with Lyumjev for people with type 1 diabetes ages 2 and above and all adults with type 2 diabetes. The companies are continuing to work toward securing Lyumjev compatibility for the Tandem Mobi pump. https://hitconsultant.net/2025/09/29/tandem-diabetes-cares-tslim-x2-pump-cleared-for-use-with-lillys-ultra-rapid-lyumjev-insulin/ XX You can now place your order for the MiniMed™ 780G system with the Instinct sensor, made by Abbott. And if you are already a MiniMed 780G user, you can place an upgrade order today. ​This is a 15 day wear sensor, with no transmitter or overtape required. It looks the same at other Abbot sensors such as the Libre but is proprietary to Medtronic. Shipments are scheduled to start in November.   ​ https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/medtronic-launches-minimed-780g-instinct-abbott/   XX The global type 1 diabetes (T1D) burden continues to increase rapidly driven by rising cases, ageing populations, improved diagnosis and falling death rates. ,   The study estimates that T1D will affect 9.5 million people globally in 2025 (up by 13% since 2021), and this number is predicted to rise to 14.7 million in 2040. However, due to lack of diagnosis and challenges in collecting sufficient data, the actual number of individuals living with T1D is likely much higher, researchers say.   In fact, they estimate that there are an additional 4.1 million 'missing people' who would have been alive in 2025 if they hadn't died prematurely from poor T1D care, including an estimated 669,000 who were not diagnosed. This is particularly true in India, where an estimated 159,000 people thought to have died from missed diagnoses. The study predicts that 513,000 new cases of T1D will be diagnosed worldwide in 2025, of which 43% (222,000) will be people younger than 20 years old. Finland is projected to have the highest incidence of T1D in children aged 0-14 years in 2025 at around 64 cases per 100,000. The substantial increases in T1D forecasts between 2025 and 2040 underscore the urgent need for action. As co-author Renza Scibilia from Breakthrough T1D explains, "Early diagnosis, access to insulin and diabetes supplies, and proper healthcare can bring enormous benefits, with the potential to save millions of lives in the coming decades by ensuring universal access to insulin and improving the rate of diagnosis in all countries."   The authors note some important limitations to their estimates, including that while the analysis uses the best available data, predictions are constrained by the lack of accurate data in most countries-highlighting the urgent need for increased surveillance and research. They also note that data on misdiagnosis and adult populations remain limited, and the analysis assumes constant age-specific incidence and mortality over time. Furthermore, incidence data from the COVID-19 period were excluded from part of the modelling to avoid bias. Future updates are expected to improve as new data become available and applied. https://www.news-medical.net/news/20250919/New-study-warns-of-millions-of-undiagnosed-and-missing-people-with-type-1-diabetes.aspx XX A new study has found that semaglutide — the active ingredient found in some GLP-1 medications prescribed for diabetes and to aid weight loss — may help protect the eyes from diabetic retinopathy. Researchers estimate that as much as 40% of all people with diabetes also have diabetic retinopathy — a potentially blinding eye condition caused by blood vessel damage in the eye's retina. There is currently no cure for diabetic retinopathy. The condition is often managed through injections of anti-VEGF medications into the eye, surgery, and blood sugar monitoring and control. For this lab-based study, researchers used samples of human retinal endothelial cells that were treated with different concentrations of semaglutide. The cells were then placed in a solution with both a high glucose level and high level of oxidative stress — where there is an imbalance of antioxidants and free radicals — for 24 hours.   Past studies show that oxidative stress plays a role in the formation of diabetic retinopathy.   At the study's conclusion, researchers found that the retinal cells treated with semaglutide were twice as likely to survive than cells that were untreated. Additionally, the treated cells were found to have larger stores of energy.   Scientists also found that three markers of diabetic retinopathy were decreased in the semaglutide-treated retinal cells. First, the levels of apoptosis — a form of cell death — decreased from about 50% in untreated cells to about 10% in semaglutide-treated cells. The production of the free radical mitochondrial superoxide decreased from about 90% to about 10% in the treated retinal cells.   Researchers also found the amount of advanced glycation end-products — harmful compounds that can collect in people with diabetes and are known to cause oxidative stress — also decreased substantially.   Lastly, scientists reported that the genes involved in the production of antioxidants were more active in the semaglutide-treated cells when compared to untreated cells. Researchers believe this is a sign that semaglutide may help repair damage to the retinal cells.   “Our study did not find that these drugs harmed the retinal cells in any way — instead, it suggests that GLP1-receptor agonists protect against diabetic retinopathy, particularly in the early stages,” Ioanna Anastasiou, PhD, molecular biologist and postdoctoral researcher at the National and Kapodistrian University in Greece, and lead author of this study, said in a press release.   “Excitingly, these drugs may be able to repair damage that has already been done and so improve sight. Clinical trials are now needed to confirm these protective effects in patients and explore whether GLP-1 receptor agonists can slow, or even halt, the progression of this vision-robbing condition.” https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/ozempic-semaglutide-may-help-protect-against-diabetes-related-blindness-retinopathy   XX Biolinq has received De Novo Classification from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for its lead product, Biolinq Shine, a patch on the forearm that provides real-time glucose feedback through a primary color-coded LED display, visible with or without a phone. This one is tricky – it's called a needle free CGM but it also says it uses micro needles. By the way, De Novo isn't exactly the same as what we think of for FDA approval for medical devices. It's not as rigorous but it's a streamlined route for novel, low to moderate risk devices with no existing equivalent. We'll see how this one turns out. https://www.hmenews.com/article/biolinq-s-multi-function-biosensor-receives-fda-de-novo-classification

Today's guest is a dear friend of mine who I've shared many meals with, a few stages before, Kyle Banks. In the middle of living out his dreams, performing on Broadway and working with some of the biggest names in the music industry, a type 1 diabetes diagnosis changed everything. In this episode, Kyle shares his journey from the bright lights of Broadway to starting up Kyler Cares and how that work has grown from helping a few families in his network with diabetes to serving over 2000 students with T1D in the New York City public school system. We'll talk about the problems these kids and families are facing, how Kyle secured a major grant to tackle them, and why this work has the potential to scale nationwide. This conversation is going to be inspiring, eye-opening, and one that you're going to want to hear all the way through. Quick Takeaways:Kyle's story Addressing the needs of T1D families and getting them the support they need The biggest problem kids with Type 1 Diabetes are facing in public schools right now Project 31 ‼️ Our annual event Rising Above T1D is BACK!
