Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune condition which occurs when the immune system accidentally attacks the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas.1 The immune system’s attack leads to a progressive decline in beta cell function and leads the body to produce less insulin.2,3

Autoimmune T1D progresses in 3 stages where the first two stages are pre-symptomatic.3,6

The autoimmunity and the progressive decline in functional beta cell mass often begin months to years before the onset of more commonly known symptoms of Type 1 Diabetes.3,6

Autoimmune T1D may present with preventable life-threatening complications, such as diabetic ketoacidosis, which can lead to hospitalization and leave a severe psychological impact.7-11

Early detection of autoimmune T1D may positively affect longevity and decreases morbidity.

Early detection may also have a significant impact on the quality of life and mental health of those who are diagnosed and their families.12-17

Proactive testing for diabetes-specific autoantibodies can transform lives by detecting autoimmune T1D before symptoms develop.18-19
