TZIELD can delay the onset of insulin-dependent type 1 diabetes.

Here's how.

How TZIELD works

An insulin-producing cell being attacked
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease.

This means the body mistakenly attacks the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas, called beta cells.

TZIELD may slow down the damage to some insulin-producing beta cells

Your body may be able to continue making some of its own insulin longer naturally before you may need insulin injections

Now is the time to act

The window to treat with TZIELD can be short.

If you or your loved one has been screened with an autoantibody test and tested positive for two or more T1D-related autoantibodies, and blood sugar levels are outside the normal range (dysglycemia), that means you are in stage 2 T1D-the stage before you become insulin dependent (stage 3). Stage 2 T1D is when you or your loved one may be an appropriate person for TZIELD, a treatment used to the delay the onset of insulin-dependent T1D.

Acting now, before the disease progresses to when the pancreas can no longer make enough insulin could make a meaningful difference.

More time to prepare:

TZIELD is used to delay the onset of insulin-dependent type 1 diabetes and can give you more time to prepare for the future:

  • More time to adapt to the lifestyle changes that come with daily diabetes management
  • More time to learn about potential complications and what to look out for
  • More time to ensure you have the right care team by your side

“We are being compensated by Sanofi to share our story.”

Molly, TZIELD caregiver of patient with Stage 2 T1D
[Compensated by Sanofi]
“14 days of infusions is really a short amount of time in comparison to the potential amount of time you could give your child from progressing from stage 2 type 1 diabetes to stage 3 type 1 diabetes.”

Aubri, TZIELD Patient
[Compensated by Sanofi]
“When I first found out I had Stage 2 type 1 diabetes, I was scared and shocked. I didn't really know what diabetes was.”

Starting TZIELD
“I was told like it was supposed to help me, like, keep me where I don't have to take insulin so much. I hear like other people and see other people take all these, like, shots and have to take medicine before they do anything, and it can get, like, frustrating. So, it, like, I’m thankful that I don't have to do that right now.”
[Individual results may vary]
“Aubri's TZIELD infusion was 16 months ago. Her blood sugars are still stable. We can't say for sure what would have happened without TZIELD, but I can say that my daughter is not insulin dependent today.”

What is TZIELD?
TZIELD is a prescription medicine used to delay the onset of Stage 3 type 1 diabetes, which is when your body can’t make enough insulin on its own and may require insulin injections. TZIELD is for adults and children 8 years of age and older who have Stage 2 type 1 diabetes. This means that they have tested positive for 2 or more type 1 diabetes-related autoantibodies, have abnormal blood sugar levels, and do not have type 2 diabetes.

It is not known if TZIELD is safe and effective in children under 8 years of age.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

What is the most important information I should know about TZIELD?

TZIELD may cause serious side effects. These include:

  • Cytokine release syndrome (CRS). Signs and symptoms may start during the first 5 days of TZIELD treatment and could include fever, nausea, feeling tired (fatigue), headache, muscle and joint pain, or increased liver enzymes in your blood. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you develop any signs and symptoms of CRS during treatment with TZIELD
  • Decrease in white blood cells. TZIELD may cause a decrease in a type of white blood cell called lymphocytes. A decrease in white blood cells is a serious, but common side effect that can affect your body’s ability to fight infections. A decrease in white blood cell counts can happen after your first dose. Your white blood cell counts will start to go back to normal after your fifth dose of TZIELD. Some people may develop longer and more severe decreases in lymphocytes

Your healthcare provider will do blood tests to check your liver and your complete blood counts before you start treatment and during treatment with TZIELD. During and after your treatment with TZIELD, your healthcare provider will check for serious side effects, as well as other side effects, and treat you as needed. Your healthcare provider may temporarily or completely stop your treatment with TZIELD, if you develop liver problems, have a serious infection, or if your blood counts stay too low.

What should I tell my healthcare provider before receiving TZIELD?

Before or after receiving TZIELD, tell your healthcare provider about all your medical conditions, including if you:

  • have a serious infection or an infection that does not go away or keeps coming back
  • have recently received or are scheduled to receive an immunization (vaccine). TZIELD may affect how well a vaccine works. Tell your doctor that you are receiving TZIELD before receiving a vaccine
  • are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. TZIELD may harm your unborn baby. Do not receive TZIELD during pregnancy and at least 30 days before a planned pregnancy
  • are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. It is not known if TZIELD passes into your breast milk and if it can harm your baby. Talk to your healthcare provider about the best way to feed your baby if you receive TZIELD

Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements.

What are the possible side effects of TZIELD?

The most common side effects of TZIELD include:

  • rash
  • leukopenia (decrease in white blood cell counts)
  • headache

These are not all of the possible side effects of TZIELD. Talk to your healthcare provider for more information, and tell them about any side effects you notice. You may report side effects to the FDA at www.fda.gov/medwatch or 1-800-FDA-1088.
