About the study
The study is a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group clinical trial to examine the effects of 24 weeks of oral AMX0035 (sodium phenylbutyrate + taurursodiol) versus placebo in 60 adults with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) (n=30 per arm). Enrollment will be distributed equally between the University of Washington and Amsterdam University Medical Center/Diabetes Center Amsterdam. Participants will be recruited through diabetes research registries, local T1D clinics, and community outreach.
