Exenatide Once Weekly for Management of Type 2 Diabetes: A Review

Exenatide Once Weekly for Management of Type 2 Diabetes: A Review

Source : https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9004502/

Clin Pharmacol. 2022; 14: 19-26. Exenatide is one of the exendin-based glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) and is currently available in two formulations, ie, exenatide twice daily (BID), a...



Conclusions: This review provides an overview of the current evidence regarding the clinical efficacy and safety of exenatide QW and discusses the current perspectives on exenatide QW for treatment of T2DM.

    Thanks for contributing, [~Dr--Hamid--ayeshahameed09@ ] ! What do others think of exenatide twice daily (BID), a short-acting GLP-1RA, vs. exenatide once weekly (QW), a long-acting GLP-1RA?

    Can use formulation for pt such as two formulations, ie, exenatide twice daily (BID), a short-acting GLP-1RA, and exenatide once weekly (QW), a long-acting GLP-1RA

Comparison of the Effectiveness of Liraglutide vs Semaglutide in a Veteran Population - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35414304/

Background: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are commonly prescribed medications for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) based on cardiovascular benefits. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate efficacy...



Conclusion: The results of this study indicate no difference between liraglutide and semaglutide in terms of A1c-lowering potential, but it provides insights into key considerations for the Veteran population.

Safety and efficacy of combination therapy with semaglutide, cilofexor and firsocostat in patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis: A randomised, open-label phase II trial

Safety and efficacy of combination therapy with semaglutide, cilofexor and firsocostat in patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis: A randomised, open-label phase II trial

Source : https://www.journal-of-hepatology.eu/article/S0168-8278(22)00235-5/fulltext

Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is associated with increased risk of liver-related and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Given the complex pathophysiology of NASH, combining therapies with complementary mechanisms may be beneficial. This...



Conclusions: In patients with mild-to-moderate fibrosis due to NASH, semaglutide with firsocostat and/or cilofexor was generally well tolerated. In exploratory efficacy analyses, treatment resulted in additional improvements in liver steatosis and biochemistry vs. semaglutide alone. Given this was a small-scale open-label trial, double-blind...

Conclusion: - the mTOR pathway was attenuated, and the insulin signaling and the AMPK pathway were enhanced by semaglutide, ameliorating the liver gene expressions related to the metabolism of obese mice. These findings are promising in delaying the progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
