Translational Session

New Therapies for the Treatment of Type 1 Diabetes and CKD

October 23, 2026 | 04:30 PM - 06:00 PM

Location: Four Seasons Ballroom 1, Convention Center

Session Description

Although new therapies for CKD associated with type 2 diabetes have emerged, many cannot be used by patients with type 1 diabetes. However, new clinical trials are assessing the efficacy and safety of novel interventions for CKD in patients with type 1 diabetes. This session reviews pathophysiological differences and similarities of CKD in type 1 and type 2 diabetes and summarizes potential new kidney- and cardiovascular-protective interventions for patients with type 1 diabetes and CKD.

Learning Objective(s)

  • Compare the pathophysiological differences and similarities of CKD in type 1 and type 2 diabetes
  • Analyze clinical trials in type 1 diabetes and CKD that target aldosterone with aldosterone synthase inhibitors and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (RAs)
  • Summarize the role of the incretin system and GIP/GLP-1 RAs for the treatment of type 1 diabetes and CKD

Learning Pathway(s)

  • Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic (CKM) Health
  • Pharmacology
