Description

This research is being done to better understand Cystic-Fibrosis Related Diabetes (CFRD) and to see the effects of GLP-1 (dulaglutide) in individuals with abnormal glucose tolerance. GLP-1 (dulaglutide) helps the pancreas release insulin, which controls blood sugar levels from getting too high and is currently prescribed to people with Type 2 diabetes. We are looking at how GLP-1 (dulaglutide) might help improve blood sugar levels for people with CF and abnormal glucose tolerance.
