Time to reframe the disease staging system for type 1 diabetes.

Article Synopsis
  • A disease staging system introduced in 2015 helps identify and track progression to clinical type 1 diabetes based on islet autoantibodies and dysglycaemia, but it has significant limitations such as combining diverse individuals and lacking high specificity.
  • Although the current model suggests a linear progression through stages, real-life progression is often more complex, and factors like age are not considered.
  • With the recent FDA approval of teplizumab to delay type 1 diabetes at stage 2, there's a need to refine diabetes staging definitions and develop a risk calculator that considers a wider range of demographic, genetic, and metabolic data, especially in underrepresented groups.

Objective: Teplizumab has emerged as a potential disease-modifying drug in type 1 diabetes (T1D). This meta-analysis sought to summarize the therapeutic effect of teplizumab in newly diagnosed patients with T1D.

Methods: Randomized controlled trials involving patients with T1D receiving teplizumab in the intervention arm and placebo (or no active intervention) in the control arm were searched throughout the electronic databases.

Context: Type 1 diabetes (T1D) results from the autoimmune T-cell mediated destruction of pancreatic beta cells leading to insufficient insulin secretion. At the time of diagnosis of T1D, there is residual beta cell function that declines over the subsequent months to years. Recent interventions have been approved to preserve beta cell function in evolving T1D.
