Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Glucocorticoids therapy exposes the patient to an increased risk for diabetes morbidity. However, there is no proven preventive therapy. GLP-1-RA has shown to improve glucose metabolism in healthy volunteers treated with glucocorticoids. We assume that GLP-1-RA will improve glucose metabolism in patients with high risk for diabetes morbidity, treated with glucocorticoids.
