BACKGROUND: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are an established treatment for patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Differences between GLP-1RAs in pharmacokinetics, dosing regimens and clinical effects, including cardiovascular (C…
BACKGROUND: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists are approved to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity. They elicit robust improvements in glycemic control and weight loss, combined with cardioprotection in individuals at risk of or with pr…
AIMS: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are the recommended first injectable therapy in type 2 diabetes. However, long-term persistence is suboptimal and partly attributable to gastrointestinal tolerability, particularly during in…
AIMS/INTRODUCTION: A single-dose, shield-activated pen-injector for each of the three approved dose variants (0.25, 0.5 and 1 mg) of once-weekly subcutaneous semaglutide has been developed to improve usability. This analysis presents findings from th…
In recent years, the combination of whole-brain immunolabelling, light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) and subsequent registration of data with a common reference atlas, has enabled 3D visualization and quantification of fluorescent markers or t…
BACKGROUND: GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) with exenatide b.i.d. first approved to treat type 2 diabetes in 2005 have been further developed to yield effective compounds/preparations that have overcome the original problem of rapid elimination (…
AIM: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of once-weekly subcutaneous semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogue, versus once-daily sitagliptin as add-on to metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) in a multiregional clinical tria…
Since the approval of subcutaneous glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, this therapeutic class has become a preferred choice for the management of type 2 diabetes due to A1C reduction, minimal risk of hypoglycemia, weight loss, and cardiovascul…
The comparative efficacy of different glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists and sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors for prevention of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in type 2 diabetes with or without cardiorenal disease is undef…
AIMS: To understand patient preferences for once-daily oral versus once-weekly injectable type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) medication administration profiles, and reasons for their preferences. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The REVISE study, a cross-sectiona…
BACKGROUND: Oral semaglutide was approved in 2019 for blood glucose control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and was the first oral glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA). T2DM is associated with substantial healthcare ex…
INTRODUCTION: Once-weekly (OW) subcutaneous (s.c.) semaglutide is an injectable glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogue approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. This trial was designed to assess the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of…
AIM: To evaluate the effect of oral semaglutide on energy intake and appetite in subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D). MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-period cross-over trial, 15 subjects with T2D recei…
BACKGROUND: Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a common disease that is associated with increased morbidity and mortality, but treatment options are limited. The efficacy and safety of the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist semaglutide in p…
Obesity is an important public health issue that has been on the rise over the last decades. It calls for effective prevention and treatment. Bariatric surgery is the most effective medical therapy for weight loss in morbid obesity, but we are in nee…
BACKGROUND: Diabetes is a chronic disease with high complexity that demands strategic medical care with a multifactorial risk-reduction approach. Over the past decade, the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has entirely changed. One of the…
INTRODUCTION: Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists (RAs) approved to date are administered by injection; therefore, patient perceptions of an oral GLP-1 RA are unknown. This discrete choice experiment explored preferences for (unbranded)…
CONTEXT: Diabetic kidney disease affects nearly one-third of US adults with prevalent type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The use of new antidiabetic medications in the prevention and treatment of diabetic kidney disease is a growing area of research in…
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists as an effective approach for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has been explored extensively, multi agonists based on GLP-1 may have better clinical benefits on obesity, Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NA…
