Program Overview

With the advent of disease-modifying therapies to delay progression of type 1 diabetes (T1D), as well as their potential application of these therapies in newly diagnosed T1D, there is an increased emphasis on presymptomatic screening, staging, and monitoring—representing a true paradigm shift in how we address the disease. This proactive approach is paramount in pediatric populations, who are at higher risk for progression after testing positive for islet autoantibodies. This symposium will provide an overview of the practical considerations for early detection of T1D and the application of disease-modifying therapy for delaying disease progression in pediatric patients, while also exploring emerging treatment approaches aimed at preserving beta cell function in newly diagnosed T1D.

Target Audience

This activity is designed to meet the educational needs of pediatric endocrinologists.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, attendees will have improved ability to:

  • Implement risk-based screening approaches to facilitate timely identification of presymptomatic T1D
  • Analyze T1D screening results to determine disease stage and inform appropriate monitoring and referral decisions
  • Develop individualized treatment strategies that incorporate disease-modifying therapies to delay T1D progression in eligible patients
  • Recognize the importance of beta-cell preservation on T1D prognosis and outcomes
  • Review emerging approaches aimed at beta cell preservation & their potential future application in new-onset T1D
