Introduction and Objective: Since the latest report of the T1D Exchange (T1DX) and Prospective Diabetes Follow-up (DPV) registries on adjuvant pharmacotherapy use in type 1 diabetes (T1D) a decade ago, more medications for management of type 2 diabetes (T2D) have been approved that may also be beneficial for T1D. This study evaluated the use of T2D-approved agents as adjunctive therapy in T1D since 2018 in the T1DX and DPV registries. Methods: Both registries separately analyzed adjuvant mediation use by class (metformin, GLP-1 RA, SGLT2i, DPP-4i), stratified by year (2018-2024) and by age range (18 y, 18-40 y, 40-65 y, ≥65 y). Results: In the T1DX, adjuvant medication use increased from 2.1% in 2018 to 5.6% in 2024, whereas in the DPV, utilization peaked at 2.2% in 2021. In both registries, the highest rates of any co-medication were observed in those ≥40 y (Figure 1a). While GLP-1 RA surpassed metformin in the T1DX in 2023, metformin remained most common in the DPV with SLGT-2i peaking in 2021 (Figure 1b). Conclusion: Use of any adjuvant pharmacotherapy for T1D was infrequent in both registries, although the rate has been increasing recently in the T1DX, especially for GLP-1 RA. SLGT-2i peak in the DPV coincided with a temporary regulatory approval for T1D in Europe. Given potential benefits of GLP-1 RA and SGLT2i for glycemic control, weight management, and cardiovascular health, more evidence is needed for a broader use of these medications in T1D.
