Exciting results! Let the floodgates open for #type1diabetes disease modifying therapeutics! Kudos to the BANDIT team and its amazing leadership @TomKaySVI @SVIResearch @JDRF
In the BANDIT phase 2 trial, patients with recent-onset type 1 diabetes treated with the JAK inhibitor baricitinib had higher C-peptide levels at 48 weeks than those treated with placebo, suggesting preservation of β-cell function. Full trial results:
