Feasibility of DPP-4 Inhibitor Therapy on Advanced Hybrid Closed Loop System

Summary

Background: Ramadan Iftar meal typically causes glucose excursions. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors increase serum concentrations of glucagon-like peptide-1 and thus, decrease blood glucose levels with low risk of hypoglycemia. Aim: To investigate the efficacy and safety of vildagliptin as an add-on therapy among adolescents and young adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) on glucose excursions of Iftar Ramadan meals and glycemic metrics during advanced hybrid closed-loop (AHCL) treatment.
