Abstract
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is characterized by the autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing β-cells of the pancreatic islets necessitating lifelong insulin therapy. Despite significant advancements in diabetes technology with increasingly sophisticated methods of insulin delivery and glucose monitoring, people with T1D remain at risk of severe complications like hypoglycemia and diabetic ketoacidosis. There has long been an interest in altering the immune response in T1D to prevent or cure T1D across its various stages with limited efficacy. This review highlights immunomodulatory approaches over the years including the anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody teplizumab which is now approved to delay onset of T1DM and other interventions under current investigation.
