OBJECTIVE: To assess the available literature evaluating the efficacy and safety of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) with multiple daily insulin injections (MDII). DATA SOURCES: A literature search of MEDLINE and Embase was perfo…
Achieving efficacious systemic levels of orally administered peptides is incredibly challenging due to the significant barriers to their bioavailability-their stability in the gastrointestinal tract and challenge of transepithelial transit, and varia…
CONTEXT: The burden of cirrhosis from nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is reaching epidemic proportions in the United States. This calls for greater awareness among endocrinologists, who often see but may miss the diagnosis in adults with obe…
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The weight loss following Semaglutide treatment, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, might be responsible for some effects observed on the nonalcoholic fatty liver disease of obese mice. SUBJECTS/METHODS: Two groups of C57BL/6 male mice…
BACKGROUND: In the incretin system, Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a hormone that inhibits the release of glucagon and regulates glucose-dependent insulin secretion. In type 2 diabetes, correcting the impaired incretin system using GLP-1 agonist…
AIM: We evaluated gastrointestinal (GI) adverse events (AEs) with once-weekly semaglutide 2.4 mg in adults with overweight or obesity and their contribution to weight loss (WL). MATERIALS AND METHODS: AE analyses pooled data from the Semaglutide Trea…
The medical applications of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists is evergrowing in scope, highlighting the urgent need for a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms through which GLP-1R activation impacts physiology and behaviour.…
A post-hoc exploratory analysis of the PIONEER 9 and 10 trials evaluated the effect of baseline age (<65 and ≥65 years) on the efficacy and safety of oral semaglutide in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes. In PIONEER 9 and 10, patients were rando…
BACKGROUND: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1RA) augment glucose-dependent insulin release and reduce glucagon secretion and gastric emptying, enabling their successful development for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D). These agent…
AIMS: To determine the proportion of UK patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) who meet the cardiovascular (CV) or combined CV/core eligibility criteria used for the CV outcome trials (CVOTs) of UK-marketed glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP…
AIMS: To investigate to what extent multiple risk marker improvements confer lower risk of cardiovascular and kidney complications in a contemporary type 2 diabetes population. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Post-hoc analysis of the LEADER (n = 8638; median…
AIM: To evaluate HbA1c and body weight changes when semaglutide 0.5- or 1.0-mg once-weekly (QW) is switched to dulaglutide 3.0- or 4.5-mg QW via exposure-response modelling. METHODS: HbA1c and body weight time-course models were developed and validat…
OBJECTIVE: To review the pharmacology, efficacy, and safety of high-dose once-weekly semaglutide for chronic weight management. DATA SOURCES: PubMed/MEDLINE and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched (inception to September 8, 2021) using keywords "semaglu…
Obesity is a growing epidemic within the USA. Because weight gain is associated with an increased risk of developing life-threatening comorbidities, such as hypertension or type 2 diabetes, there is great interest in developing non-invasive pharmacot…
Since the discovery of insulin, a century ago, the repertoire of therapeutic polypeptides targeting diabetes - and now also obesity - have increased substantially. The focus on quality has shifted from impure and unstable preparations of animal insul…
There are significant injuries of pancreatic islets due to obesity and insulin resistance. Therefore, GLP-1 receptor agonists like Semaglutide might benefit the islet structural remodeling and its endocrine function in diet-induced obese mice. One-mo…
Older medications approved for chronic weight management (orlistat, naltrexone/bupropion, liraglutide 3 mg and, in the USA, phentermine/topiramate) have not been widely adopted by health care providers. Those medications produce only modest additiona…
To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of oral semaglutide+metformin versus empagliflozin+metformin in people with Type 2 diabetes uncontrolled on msetformin alone.The IQVIA Core Diabetes Model was populated with efficacy data from a head-to-head study b…
