Description as written by the study sponsor.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Empagliflozin and Semaglutide, individually and combined, added to Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) works to improve time-in-range in adults living with Type 1 Diabetes. It will also evaluate the safety of Empagliflozin and Semaglutide in this context. The primary hypothesis of this study is : \- The combination therapy of semaglutide and empagliflozin will increase time-in-range compared to placebo when added to AID therapy. The secondary hypotheses are : * The combination therapy of semaglutide and empagliflozin will increase time-in-range compared to semaglutide alone when added to AID therapy. * The combination of semaglutide and empagliflozin will increase time-in-range compared to empagliflozin alone when added to AID therapy. In this study, the research team will compare Empagliflozin and Semaglutide to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if they improve time-in-range. This study has four groups: Group 1: semaglutide injection + empagliflozin tablet. Group 2: semaglutide injection + placebo tablet. Group 3: placebo injection + empagliflozin tablet. Group 4: placebo injection + placebo tablet. This is a 2x2 factorial crossover study. This means that all participants will undergo both injection intervention (placebo and semaglutide) arms. Within each injection arm, participants will take both tablets (placebo and empagliflozin). By the end of the study, every participant will have taken part in each study group.
