Therapeutic Strategies for Microvascular Dysfunction in Type 1 Diabetes

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 15 Oct 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The investigators will test the hypothesis that, in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonism (GLP-1RA, i.e. dulaglutide) enhances insulin-mediated skeletal muscle microvascular perfusion via attenuating endothelial oxidative stress and thereby improving endothelial function.

Lab values

  • Taking vasoactive medications (i.e. calcium channel blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme or renin inhibitors, angiotensin-receptor blockers, nitrates, alpha-blockers).
  • Anemia (hemoglobin \<12 g/dL in women, hemoglobin \<13 g/dL in men), eosinophilia (absolute eosinophil count \>500 cells/microliter) leukopenia (total white blood cells \<4,000 cells/microliter)
