Abstract
Abstract
Background
Mortality associated with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease reduces average life expectancy by more than a decade in type 1 diabetes. Systemic inflammation drives atherosclerosis, and the concept of residual inflammatory risk (defined by high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) ≥2 mg/l) poses a potential, new therapeutic target for lowering residual cardiovascular risk in type 1 diabetes. However, the characteristics of individuals with residual inflammatory risk in type 1 diabetes are unknown.
Purpose
Identify differences in relevant demographics, clinical and paraclinical parameters for individuals with residual inflammatory risk as compared to those without in type 1 diabetes.
Methods
Baseline characteristics as stratified for CRP ≥2 mg/l were analysed in 105 patients with type 1 diabetes participating in a previously published clinical trial. The study population was sampled to represent the broad background population struggling with glycaemic control and with a high cardiovascular risk.
Results
Residual inflammatory risk was seen in 39.1% of the study population. Compared to individuals without residual inflammatory risk, individuals with residual inflammatory risk were more frequently women, had increased body weight, body mass index and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)-assessed fat mass and exhibited elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and total cholesterol as well as triglycerides, interleukin 6 and tumour necrosis factor alpha (Table 1). Glycated haemoglobin, blood pressure and markers of renal function were similar between groups (Table 1).
Conclusion
In the present cohort of individuals with type 1 diabetes, residual inflammatory risk was seen in 39.1% (similar to what is observed outside of type 1 diabetes) and appeared related to overweight/obesity, an atherogenic lipid profile and circulating biomarkers of inflammation but not to glycaemic control, blood pressure or renal function.

Abstract
Context and objective Obesity and inactivity are risk factors for developing impaired glucose tolerance characterized by insulin resistance and reduced beta-cell function. The stimulatory effect of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) on insulin secretion is also impaired in obese, inactive individuals. The aim of this study was to investigate whether endurance training influences beta-cell sensitivity to GLP-1. Participants and intervention Twenty-four female participants, age 46 ± 2 years, body mass index 32.4 ± 0.9 kg/m2, and maximal oxygen consumption 24.7 ± 0.8 mL/kg/min participated in a 10-week exercise training study. Methods Beta-cell sensitivity to GLP-1 was assessed in a subset of participants (n = 6) during a 120-minute hyperglycemic glucose clamp (8.5 mM) including a 1-hour GLP-1 (7-36 amide) infusion (0.4 pmol/kg/min). Changes in glucose tolerance, body composition, and cardiorespiratory fitness were assessed by oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs), dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scans, magnetic resonance scans, and maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) tests, respectively. Results The c-peptide response to infusion of GLP-1 increased 28 ± 3% (P < 0.05) toward the end of the hyperglycemic clamp. The insulin response remained unchanged. Training improved glucose tolerance and reduced GLP-1, insulin, and glucagon levels during the OGTTs. Training increased VO2max (from 24.7 ± 0.8 to 27.0 ± 0.7 mL/kg/min; P < 0.05) and reduced visceral fat volume (from 4176 ± 265 to 3888 ± 266 cm3; P < 0.01). Conclusion Along with improved glycemic control, endurance training improved beta-cell sensitivity to GLP-1 in overweight women. The study was deemed not to constitute a clinical trial and was not registered as such.

Abstract
AIMS To present secondary outcome analyses of liraglutide treatment in overweight adults with insulin pump-treated type 1 diabetes (T1D), focusing on changes in body composition and dimensions, and to evaluate changes in food intake to identify potential dietary drivers of liraglutide-associated weight loss. MATERIALS AND METHODS A 26-week randomized placebo-controlled study was conducted to investigate the efficacy and safety of liraglutide 1.8 mg daily in 44 overweight adults with insulin pump-treated T1D and glucose levels above target, and demonstrated significant glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c)- and body weight-reducing effects. For secondary outcome analysis, dual X-ray absorptiometry scans were completed at Weeks 0 and 26, and questionnaire-based food frequency recordings were obtained at Weeks 0, 13 and 26 to characterize liraglutide-induced changes in body composition and food intake. RESULTS Total fat and lean body mass decreased in liraglutide-treated participants (fat mass -4.6 kg [95% confidence interval {CI} -5.7; -3.5], P < 0.001; lean mass -2.5 kg [95% CI -3.2;-1.7], P < 0.001), but remained stable in placebo-treated participants (fat mass -0.3 kg [95% CI -1.3;0.8], P = 0.604; lean mass 0.0 kg [95% CI -0.7;0.7]; P = 0.965 [between-group P values <0.001]). Participants reduced their energy intake numerically more in the liraglutide arm (-1.1 MJ [95% CI -2.0;-0.02], P = 0.02) than in the placebo arm (-0.9 MJ [95% CI -2.0;0.1], P = 0.22), but the between-group difference was statistically insignificant (P = 0.42). However, energy derived from added sugars decreased by 27% in the liraglutide arm compared with an increase of 14% in the placebo arm (P = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS Liraglutide lowered fat and lean body mass compared with placebo. Further, liraglutide reduced intake of added sugars. However, no significant difference in total daily energy intake was detected between liraglutide- and placebo-treated participants.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the efficacy of the short-acting glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, exenatide, added to insulin therapy in type 1 diabetes on bone mineral density and bone turnover markers. MATERIALS AND METHODS In a randomized, double-blinded, parallel-group trial, 108 individuals with type 1 diabetes aged 18 years or older on basal-bolus therapy with HbA1c 59-88 mmol/mol (7.5%-10.0%) and body mass index of more than 22.0 kg/m2 were randomized (1:1) to preprandial subcutaneous injection of 10 μg exenatide (Byetta) before breakfast, lunch, and dinner over 26 weeks as add-on treatment to insulin therapy. RESULTS Exenatide elicited a body weight reduction of 4.4 kg compared with placebo, but no between-group differences in bone mineral density, as assessed by whole-body, hip, lumbar, and forearm dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry following 26 weeks of treatment, were observed. Fasting plasma levels of C-terminal telopeptides of type I collagen, a marker of bone resorption, and amino-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen, a marker of bone formation, were unchanged by exenatide compared with placebo after 26 weeks. CONCLUSIONS Despite an exenatide-induced body weight reduction, no changes in bone metabolism were observed with exenatide added to insulin therapy in type 1 diabetes after 26 weeks.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate 26 weeks of liraglutide treatment in type 1 diabetes (T1D) by subgroups in the ADJUNCT ONE and ADJUNCT TWO trials. MATERIALS AND METHODS ADJUNCT ONE and ADJUNCT TWO were randomized controlled phase 3 trials in 1398 and 835 participants with T1D treated with liraglutide (1.8, 1.2, or 0.6 mg) or placebo (adjuncts to insulin). This post hoc analysis evaluated treatment effects by subgroups: HbA1c (< or ≥8.5%), body mass index (BMI; < or ≥27 kg/m2 ), and insulin regimen (basal bolus or continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion). RESULTS In both trials at week 26, reductions in HbA1c, body weight, and daily insulin dose did not differ significantly (P > .05) by baseline HbA1c or BMI. Risk of clinically significant hypoglycaemia or hyperglycaemia with ketosis did not differ significantly (P > .05) by baseline HbA1c, BMI, or insulin regimen. At week 26 in ADJUNCT ONE, these risks did not differ (P > .05) between treatment groups. Placebo-adjusted reductions in HbA1c, body weight, and insulin dose (-0.30%-points, -5.0 kg, and -12%, respectively, with liraglutide 1.8 mg), were significant (P < .05), greater than at week 52, and similar to those in ADJUNCT TWO (-0.35%, -4.8 kg, and -10%, respectively, with liraglutide 1.8 mg). CONCLUSIONS In ADJUNCT ONE and ADJUNCT TWO, the efficacy and glycaemic safety of liraglutide did not depend on subgroups, leaving residual beta-cell function as the only identified variable impacting the effect of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) in T1D. These findings support a role for GLP-1 RAs as adjuncts to insulin in T1D, warranting further study.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Type 1 diabetes is characterised by reduced glucagon response to hypoglycaemia, increasing the risk of insulin treatment-associated hypoglycaemia known to hamper glycaemic control. We previously reported a glucagonotropic effect of exogenous glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) during insulin-induced hypoglycaemia in individuals with type 1 diabetes. Here we investigate the effect of a 6-day s.c. GIP infusion on time in glycaemic range as assessed by continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in individuals with type 1 diabetes. METHODS In a randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind crossover study, time in glycaemic range (assessed by double-blinded CGM) was evaluated in 20 men with type 1 diabetes (18-75 years, stable insulin treatment ≥3 months, diabetes duration 2-15 years, fasting plasma C-peptide below 200 pmol/l, BMI 20-27 kg/m2, HbA1c <69 mmol/mol [8.5%]) during two × 6 days of continuous s.c. GIP (6 pmol kg-1 min-1) and placebo (saline [154 mmol/l NaCl]) infusion, respectively, with an interposed 7-day washout period. The primary outcome was glycaemic time below range, time in range and time above range. RESULTS There were no significant differences in time below range (<3.9 mmol/l, p = 0.53) or above range (>10 mmol/l, p = 0.32) during night-time or daytime, in mean glucose, or in hypoglycaemic events as assessed by CGM. GIP altered neither self-reported hypoglycaemia nor safety measures. Compared with placebo, GIP significantly increased time in tight range (3.9-7.8 mmol/l) during daytime (06:00-23:59 hours) by [mean ± SEM] 11.2 ± 5.1% [95% CI 0.41, 21.9] (p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Six-day s.c. GIP infusion in men with type 1 diabetes did not procure convincing effect on overall time in range, but increased time in tight glycaemic range during daytime by ~2 h per day. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03734718. FUNDING The study was funded by grants from The Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust and Aase og Ejnar Danielsens Fond.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS We aimed to investigate the short-term efficacy and safety of three glucose-lowering interventions in overweight or obese individuals with prediabetes defined by HbA1c. METHODS The PRE-D Trial was a randomised, controlled, parallel, multi-arm, open-label, non-blinded trial performed at Steno Diabetes Center Copenhagen, Gentofte, Denmark. One hundred and twenty participants with BMI ≥25 kg/m2, 30-70 years of age, and prediabetes (HbA1c 39-47 mmol/mol [5.7-6.4%]) were randomised 1:1:1:1 to dapagliflozin (10 mg once daily), metformin (1700 mg daily), interval-based exercise (5 days/week, 30 min/session) or control (habitual lifestyle). Participants were examined at baseline and at 6, 13 and 26 weeks after randomisation. The primary outcome was the 13 week change in glycaemic variability (calculated as mean amplitude of glycaemic excursions [MAGE]) determined using a continuous glucose monitoring system (pre-specified minimal clinically important difference in MAGE ∼30%). RESULTS One hundred and twelve participants attended the examination at 13 weeks and 111 attended the follow-up visit at 26 weeks. Compared with the control group, there was a small decrease in MAGE in the dapagliflozin group (17.1% [95% CI 0.7, 30.8], p = 0.042) and a small, non-significant, reduction in the exercise group (15.3% [95% CI -1.2, 29.1], p = 0.067), whereas MAGE was unchanged in the metformin group (0.1% [95% CI -16.1, 19.4], p = 0.991)). Compared with the metformin group, MAGE was 17.2% (95% CI 0.8, 30.9; p = 0.041) lower in the dapagliflozin group and 15.4% (95% CI -1.1, 29.1; p = 0.065) lower in the exercise group after 13 weeks, with no difference between exercise and dapagliflozin (2.2% [95% CI -14.8, 22.5], p = 0.815). One serious adverse event occurred in the control group (lung cancer). CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Treatment with dapagliflozin and interval-based exercise lead to similar but small improvements in glycaemic variability compared with control and metformin therapy. The clinical importance of these findings in prediabetes is uncertain.

Abstract
CONTEXT The extent of the glycemic variability in diabetes secondary to total pancreatectomy is not fully understood. OBJECTIVE To evaluate glycemic variability in totally pancreatectomized (PX) patients and compare it to glycemic variability in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)-matched patients with long-standing type 1 diabetes (T1D). DESIGN A case-control study was performed. SETTING Center for Clinical Metabolic Research, Gentofte Hospital, University of Copenhagen, Hellerup, Denmark. PATIENTS OR OTHER PARTICIPANTS Ten PX patients (mean [SEM]: age 64.3 [9.8] years; body mass index (BMI) 34.4 [5.0] kg/m2; duration of diabetes 3 [2.8] years), 10 HbA1c-matched patients with T1D (63.9 [8.6] years; 24.6 [3.1] kg/m2; 22 [4] years), and 10 gender-, age-, and BMI-matched healthy controls. All patients were managed on multiple daily injections of insulin. INTERVENTION Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) (Medtronic MiniMed iPro 2) during 12 consecutive days. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Glycemic variability. RESULTS HbA1c levels were similar in the PX group and the T1D group. The PX group had greater continuous overall net glycemic action per 60 minutes (CONGA60 min) compared with the T1D group (mean [SEM]: 9.5 [0.3] vs 8.3 [0.2] mmol/L, P < 0.003) and mean plasma glucose values were higher in the PX group (10.6 [0.9] vs 9.0 [0.9] mmol/L, P < 0.001), whereas coefficient of variation for plasma glucose and standard deviation of mean plasma glucose, respectively, were similar in the 2 groups. Time spent below range was not different between the PX and the T1D group (2.3 [0.8] vs 4.5 [0.8]%, P = 0.065), whereas time spent above range was higher in the PX group (51.4 [3.3] vs 37.6 [1.9]%, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS CGM-assessed glycemic variability showed higher CONGA60 min and time spent above range in our PX patients compared with HbA1c-matched T1D patients. This study is registered at www.ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02944110).

Abstract
AIMS To investigate the effect of adding the short-acting glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) exenatide to insulin treatment on markers of cardiovascular risk in type 1 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS In a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group trial, 108 individuals with type 1 diabetes aged ≥18 years on multiple daily injection therapy with a body mass index >22.0 kg/m2 and glycated haemoglobin concentration of 59 to 88 mmol/mol (7.5%-10.0%) were randomized (1:1) to preprandial subcutaneous injection of 10 μg exenatide (Byetta®) or placebo three times daily over 26 weeks as add-on treatment to existing insulin therapy. Reported markers of cardiovascular risk were secondary endpoints and were analyzed in a baseline-adjusted linear mixed model in the intention-to-treat population. The primary results of this study, the MAG1C (Meal-time Administration of exenatide for Glycaemic control in type 1 diabetes Cases) trial, were previously reported. RESULTS Exenatide changed total fat mass by -2.6 kg (95% confidence interval [CI] -3.6; -1.6; P < 0.0001) and lean body mass by -1.1 kg (95% CI -1.9; -0.4; P = 0.01) compared with placebo, as assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Fat mass reductions were similar for central and peripheral fat mass. Exenatide did not change levels of interleukin-2 or -6; tumour necrosis factor-α; C-reactive protein; N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide; or 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosine (RNA oxidation marker) and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (DNA oxidation marker). CONCLUSIONS Exenatide added to insulin therapy in type 1 diabetes for 26 weeks resulted in body weight loss primarily from fat mass reduction, but had no effect on biomarkers of cardiovascular disease risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In type 2 diabetes, long-acting GLP-1 receptor agonists lower fasting plasma glucose and improve glycaemic control via their insulinotropic and glucagonostatic effects. In type 1 diabetes, their efficacy as an add-on treatment to insulin therapy is modest. Short-acting GLP-1 receptor agonists also lower postprandial glucose excursions in type 2 diabetes by decelerating gastric emptying rate. We aimed to test the efficacy of a short-acting GLP-1 receptor agonist in type 1 diabetes. METHODS In the single-centre, parallel-group, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled MAG1C trial, patients with type 1 diabetes on multiple daily injection therapy aged 18 years and older with HbA1c 59-88 mmol/mol (7·5-10·0%) and a BMI of more than 22·0 kg/m2 were randomly assigned (1:1) through a computer-generated randomisation list to preprandial subcutaneous injection of 10 μg exenatide (Byetta) or placebo three times daily for 26 weeks as an add-on treatment to usual insulin therapy. Clinically assessed insulin titration was done by study staff. Participants and investigators were masked to treatment allocation. The primary endpoint was between-group difference in HbA1c after 26 weeks. Data were analysed with a baseline-adjusted linear mixed model in the intention-to-treat population. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03017352, and is completed. FINDINGS Between Jan 4, 2017, and Jan 16, 2019, 108 participants were randomly assigned, 54 to exenatide and 54 to placebo; 23 participants discontinued treatment (17 in the exenatide group and six in the placebo group). From a baseline-adjusted mean of 66·4 mmol/mol (95% CI 64·9-67·8 [8·2%, 8·1-8·4]), HbA1c changed by -3·2 mmol/mol (-5·0 to -1·4 [-0·3%, -0·5 to -0·1]) with exenatide and -2·1 mmol/mol (-3·7 to -0·6 [-0·2%, -0·3 to -0·1]) with placebo after 26 weeks (estimated treatment difference of -1·1 mmol/mol (-3·4 to 1·2 [-0·1%, -0·3 to 0·1]; p=0·36). Exenatide increased the number of self-reported gastrointestinal adverse events (primarily nausea [48 events among 37 patients with exenatide, nine with placebo among 9 patients]). Two serious adverse events occurred in the exenatide group, and six occurred in the placebo group (none were considered to be related to the study drug). INTERPRETATION Short-acting exenatide does not seem to have a future as a standard add-on treatment to insulin therapy in type 1 diabetes. FUNDING AstraZeneca.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the efficacy of adding the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist liraglutide to continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) in overweight or obese persons with type 1 diabetes and non-optimal glycaemic control. MATERIALS AND METHODS A 26-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial including 44 overweight or obese adults with type 1 diabetes randomized 1:1 to liraglutide 1.8 mg once daily (QD) or placebo added to CSII treatment. The primary endpoint was change in haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). Secondary endpoints included change in insulin dose, CSII settings, glycaemic variability, body weight and patient-reported outcome measures. Finally, adverse effects including hypoglycaemic events were registered. RESULTS HbA1c was reduced by 5 mmol/mol (0.5%) from a baseline of 66 mmol/mol (8.2%) in patients treated with liraglutide compared with a non-significant change of +2.3 mmol/mol (0.2%) from a baseline of 66 mmol/mol (8.1%) in patients treated with placebo (between-group difference 7 mmol/mol [0.7%], P < 0.001). Liraglutide reduced total insulin dose by 8 units/day or 16% of total insulin dose (P = 0.008). Mean body weight was reduced by 6.3 kg (P < 0.001) compared with placebo. Concomitantly, time spent in glycaemic target range 4-10 mmol/L (71-180 mg/dL) increased while the risk of hypoglycaemia did not differ between groups at the end of treatment. CONCLUSION Liraglutide treatment reduced HbA1c, total daily insulin dose and body weight without increasing the risk of hypoglycaemia in CSII-treated patients with type 1 diabetes and insufficient glycaemic control. Liraglutide may be considered a potential add-on therapy to insulin in this subgroup of patients.

Abstract
AIM Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) therapy is a potential treatment as adjunct to insulin in type 1 diabetes (T1D). However, GLP-1RAs inhibit glucagon secretion and delay the gastric emptying (GE) rate and may impair recovery from hypoglycaemia. We evaluated the effect of the GLP-1RA liraglutide on counterregulatory responses and GE rate during hypoglycaemia in persons with T1D. MATERIALS AND METHODS In a 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, 20 patients aged >18 years with T1D and HbA1c ≥8% (64 mmol/mol) were randomly assigned (1:1) to liraglutide 1.2 mg once daily or placebo as add-on to insulin treatment. Before and at end of treatment a hypoglycaemic clamp (plasma glucose target 2.5 mmol/L) was carried out, followed by a liquid meal. Primary endpoint was change in GE rate (evaluated by area under the paracetamol curve and time to peak). Secondary endpoints included changes in glycaemic recovery, counter-regulatory hormones, pancreatic polypeptide (PP), GLP-1, blood pressure and heart rate. RESULTS During the period June 2013 to October 2014, 20 patients were enrolled. After 12 weeks of treatment, changes in GE rates did not differ significantly between groups ( P = .96), with no significant changes from baseline, whether evaluated from AUCs or time to peak. The secondary endpoints, glycaemic recovery, counter-regulatory hormone responses, systolic blood pressure and GLP-1 and PP responses, were also similar. Heart rate increased with liraglutide from 69 ± 4 to 80 ± 5 beats/min ( P = .02). CONCLUSIONS Liraglutide does not compromise glycaemic recovery, GE rate or counter-regulatory hormone responses in T1D patients during hypoglycaemia. No treatment-related safety issues were identified.

Abstract
We investigated the short-term effect of adding liraglutide 1.8 mg once daily to insulin treatment on cardiovascular risk factors in patients with type 1 diabetes. In total, 100 overweight (BMI ≥25 kg/m2 ) adult patients (age ≥18 years) with type 1 diabetes and HbA1c ≥ 8% (64 mmol/mol) were randomized to liraglutide 1.8 mg or placebo added to insulin treatment in a 24-week double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial. At baseline and after 24 weeks of treatment, 24-hour blood pressure and heart rate, pulse pressure, pulse wave velocity and carotid intima-media thickness were evaluated. Compared with placebo, liraglutide increased 24-hour heart rate by 4.6 beats per minute (BPM); P = .0015, daytime heart rate by 3.7; P = .0240 and night-time heart rate by 7.5 BPM; P < .001 after 24 weeks. Diastolic nocturnal blood pressure increased by 4 mm Hg; P = .0362 in the liraglutide group compared with placebo. In conclusion, in patients with long-standing type 1 diabetes, liraglutide as add-on to insulin increased heart rate and did not improve other cardiovascular risk factors after 24 weeks of treatment.

Abstract
Plasma levels of the inflammatory marker YKL-40 were investigated in 597 adult offspring born to women with and without diabetes during pregnancy. No association between fetal exposure to maternal hyperglycemia and levels of YKL-40 was found. However, female sex and increasing BMI in the offspring were associated to YKL-40.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study investigated the efficacy and safety of once-daily liraglutide 1.2 mg versus placebo as add-on to insulin treatment in normal-weight patients with poorly controlled type 1 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS In a randomized (1:1), double-blind, placebo-controlled design, 40 patients with type 1 diabetes (HbA1c ≥8% [64 mmol/mol]) received once-daily liraglutide 1.2 mg or placebo for 12 weeks. Continuous glucose monitoring was performed before and at the end of treatment. The primary end point was change in HbA1c. Secondary end points included change in insulin dose, weight, glycemic excursions, heart rate, and blood pressure. RESULTS Baseline HbA1c was similar in the liraglutide and placebo group (8.8 ± 0.2 and 8.7 ± 0.1% [72.5 ± 2.2 and 71.8 ± 1.5 mmol/mol]). Change in HbA1c from baseline was -0.6 ± 0.2% (-6.22 ± 1.71 mmol/mol) with liraglutide and -0.5 ± 0.2% (-5.56 ± 1.67 mmol/mol) with placebo (P = 0.62). Variation in glycemic excursions did not change in either group. Change in body weight was -3.13 ± 0.58 and +1.12 ± 0.42 kg (P < 0.0001) with liraglutide and placebo, respectively. The bolus insulin dose decreased in liraglutide-treated patients and did not change with placebo treatment (4.0 ± 1.3 vs. 0.0 ± 1.0 IU, P = 0.02). Heart rate increased within the liraglutide group (P = 0.04) but not compared with placebo, whereas mean systolic blood pressure decreased compared with placebo (between-group difference 3.21 mmHg [95% CI -8.31 to 1.90], P = 0.04). Liraglutide was more frequently associated with gastrointestinal adverse effects. The incidence of hypoglycemia did not differ between groups. CONCLUSIONS Liraglutide significantly reduces body weight and insulin requirements but has no additional effect on HbA1c in normal-weight patients with type 1 diabetes inadequately controlled on insulin alone.
