Thursday, November 2, 2023

A Phase 1 clinical study showed that DFMO treatment may provide metabolic benefits to preserve β cell function and health in T1D.

Key Points: 
  • A Phase 1 clinical study showed that DFMO treatment may provide metabolic benefits to preserve β cell function and health in T1D.
  • Data published in the journal Cell Reports Medicine investigated the mechanism of polyamines and polyamine inhibition by CPP-1X on β cell stress that plays a role in the onset of type 1 diabetes in in vitro and ex vivo models.
  • Results showed that DFMO treatment may preserve β cell function, reflected by C-peptide levels in patients with T1D through the modulation of urinary polyamines, in particular putrescine.
  • Results from these studies suggest that CPP-1X is a safe, oral treatment option that may improve β cell function and/or survival in recent onset T1D.
