Breaking Research BCG Vaccine Reduces A1c Long-Term
The bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine is one of the oldest vaccines in history and has been investigated as a potential treatment for type 1 diabetes by Dr. Denise Faustman and her team at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) for over a decade. A new study published today in npj Vaccines describes the long-term outcomes of BCG administration to patients with type 1 diabetes. The study enrolled 282 individuals, 52 of whom received the vaccine. The average age of type 1 diabetes duration among the cohort was 19 years. The patients were followed for over eight years, and their A1c levels were evaluated. The study reports that patients with type 1 diabetes who received just two doses of the BCG vaccine, spaced four weeks apart, achieved markedly lower A1c levels compared to the control group. This result was observed three years after the vaccine administration and continued for the next five years […]

Study Investigates Very Low-Carb Diets for Type 1 Diabetes
Undoubtedly, food intake and blood glucose levels are intimately connected, and diet plays a central role in post-prandial blood glucose levels. There is much debate about diet when it comes to managing type 1 diabetes. While many have found success with a low-carbohydrate approach, the diet remains controversial. In particular, little research has been conducted on the use of a low-carbohydrate approach for the management of type 1 diabetes in children. A new study, published today in the journal Pediatrics, examined the effects of a very low-carbohydrate diet on glycemic control and adverse events in a cohort of adults and children with type 1 diabetes. Overall, the research demonstrated that the study participants experienced dramatic improvements in HbA1c levels, with remarkable glucose stability, and a low rate of adverse events when following a low-carbohydrate approach.

Dr. Faustman’s Type 1 Reversal Trial Seeks More Participants
Denise Faustman, MD, PhD, is the Director of the Immunobiology Lab at Massachusetts General Hospital and an Associate Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School. She was interviewed by Diabetes Daily about 9 years ago when she was about to begin human clinical trials based on the results from her successful mice-curing BCG vaccine. Mice are certainly cured from type 1 diabetes a lot these days, but in clinical trials, they are often given type 1 diabetes through an interventional chemical administration. It is notable that Dr. Faustman cured mice who had naturally occurring type 1 diabetes which is rooted in the autoimmune attack on the insulin-making beta cells. The BCG vaccine, or Bacillus Calmette-Guerin vaccine, is about 100 years old and used around the world, though no longer in the United States, for the prevention of tuberculosis. It is being studied in various labs around the world due to its ability to spark the […]

Long-term reduction in hyperglycemia in advanced type 1 diabetes the value of induced aerobic glycolysis with BCG vaccinations npj Vaccines
In patients with long-term type 1 diabetes, the tuberculosis vaccine BCG lowers blood sugar levels to near-normal after three years. Denise Faustman and her team from Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School investigated a cohort of type 1 diabetics that received two doses of BCG before being monitored over eight years. After three years, vaccine-treated patients lowered their HbA1c levels—a diabetes biomarker reflecting average blood sugar over 8–12 weeks—by over 10%. This reduction increased to 18% in the fourth year, after which HbA1c levels remained low up to the final year of monitoring. The researchers report that the BCG vaccine appeared to reset diabetes-implicated parts of the immune system and, through a novel mechanism, shift glucose metabolism to lower blood sugar to healthy levels. Future studies will further classify BCG’s benefits in diabetes.
