Abstrakt: Aims: To test potential efficacy of liraglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, in subjects with type 1 diabetes (T1DM).
Methods: We have recruited nine T1DM patients (age 40.1 ± 6.4 years, duration of diabetes 19.2 ± 8.8 years, BMI 24.3 ± 3.5 kg/m(2), HbA1c 8.2 ± 1.0 %-66 ± 11 mmol/mol, daily insulin dose: 0.6 ± 0.1 IU/kg) on continuous subcutaneous insulin therapy with undetectable C-peptide. In addition to existing treatment was administered in single-blind (a) therapy subcutaneously with 0.1 ml of saline solution for 3 days and (b) 0.1 ml of liraglutide (0.6 mg/day) for a further 3 days with daily glucose excursions recorded by continuous glucose monitoring.
Results: Adding liraglutide resulted in a significant reduction in mean blood glucose (138 ± 29 vs. 163 ± 29 mg/dl, p < 0.0001) and standard deviation (42 ± 9 vs. 60 ± 15 mg/dl, p < 0.0001). The area under the curve (AUC) for blood glucose >140 mg/dl was also significantly reduced (22.2 ± 16.4 vs. 41.1 ± 19.7 mg/dl h, p < 0.05) with no difference in AUC for blood glucose <70 mg/dl (liraglutide 0.7 ± 0.9 mg/dl h; placebo: 0.8 ± 1.4 mg/dl h, p = NS). Finally, adding liraglutide reduced daily insulin requirement (37.5 ± 17.2 vs. 42.9 ± 22.4 UI/day, p < 0.01).
Conclusions: Short-term treatment with liraglutide, in T1DM, reduces average blood glucose, blood glucose variability and daily insulin requirement without increasing risk of hypoglycemia.
