This live program, presented by a panel of three key opinion leaders, will provide participants with an understanding of the latest standards of care for type 2 diabetes, including strategies for patient education and engagement, and evidence for the use of early and intensive combination treatment. The live activity allows for significant audience interaction to bring issues and questions to the forefront of the discussion and deepens participant involvement.

CS02 Constructing an Open and Shut Case for the Practical Application of New Insulin Formulations in Type 2 Diabetes

Marriott Marquis Hotel, Pacific Ballroom 25, North Tower, Level 1
Supported by an unrestricted educational grant provided by Novo Nordisk

Learning Objectives

  1. Compare and Contrast the therapeutic characteristics, efficacy, and safety of long-acting vs. ultralong-acting basal insulins.
  2. Calculate appropriate doses for initiating and titrating ultralong-acting basal, and for switching between different types of insulin.
  3. Individually intensify long-or ultralong-acting basal insulin therapy using p randial insulin or a GLP-1 RA including premixed or co-formulated agents in patients with T2DM.

This live activity will provide diabetes educators (DEs) with expert perspectives on current and emerging evidence about new treatment options for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), As the program title implies, the lively, “shut-the-box” game-based format will use lectures and realistic clinical cases to present expert perspectives on data and practical information relevant to the newly approved ultralong-acting insulins and how to use them. Data for emerging coformulations of basal insulin with GLP-1 RAs will also be reviewed.

CS03 Does the Shoe Fit? Matching the Right Insulin Combination to Individual Patients with T2DM

Mariott Marquis Hotel, Pacific Ballroom 21, North Tower, Level 1
Supported by an unrestricted educational grant provided by Sanofi

Learning Objectives

  1. Review criteria and indications for treatment intensification in patients with T2DM who are not achieving glycemic goals with oral antihyperglycemic agents alone.
  2. Assess the role of newer antihyperglycemic agents (GLP-1 RAs, DPP-4 inhibitors, and SGLT2 inhibitors) in complementary combination with insulin when managing T2DM across disease progress.
  3. Evaluate recent evidence regarding the use of insulin and GLP-1 RAs in complementary combinations across T2DM disease progression, including investigational fixed combinations or coformulations of insulin/GLP-1 RA

The content for this educational symposium is designed to provide participants with the ability to evaluate different antihyperglycemic therapy options that include complementary insulin combinations when treatment intensification is necessary in patients with T2DM.
