Exenatide ones week

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) such as exenatide are used as monotherapy and add-on therapy for maintaining glycaemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The current study investigated the safety and efficacy of once-weekly PB-119, a PEGylated exenatide injection, in treatment-naive patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS: In this Phase II, randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind study, we randomly assigned treatment-naive Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes in a 1:1:1:1 ratio to receive subcutaneous placebo or one of three subcutaneous doses of PB-119 (75, 150, and 200 μg) for 12 weeks...

INTRODUCTION: The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) on clinical and safety outcomes including glycemic control and cardiometabolic indicators using network meta-analysis. METHODS: MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched from inception through June 30, 2019. Randomized clinical trials comparing one or more of six eligible GLP-1RAs with placebo or another eligible GLP-1RA were identified...

Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have consistently shown glycemic and extra-glycemic benefits of long-acting injectable glucagon-like-peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs, liraglutide, albiglutide, exenatide once-weekly, dulaglutide, and semaglutide) in terms of reduction in the rates of cardiovascular events and mortality among patients with type 2 diabetes. Recently, the analyses of large datasets collecting routinely-accumulated data from clinical practice (ie, real-world studies, RWS) have provided new opportunities to complement the information obtained from RCTs...

Bydureon® (Bdn) is a once-weekly injectable long-acting release (LAR) product for adults with type 2 diabetes based on PLGA microspheres encapsulating the glucagon like peptide (GLP-1) analog, exenatide. Despite its widespread use in type 2 diabetes treatment, little information has been published concerning the physical-chemical aspects and exenatide stability in this product. Here, we developed and validated methods to evaluate attributes and performance of Bdn such as particle size/size distribution and residual levels of moisture and organic solvent(s)...

WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE: In recent years, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) including once-weekly (QW) formulations have been incorporated into type 2 diabetes (T2D) clinical guidelines, making it essential that pharmacists and healthcare professionals (HCPs) have a clear understanding of their safety profiles. Currently, three QW GLP-1 RAs are approved and marketed in the United States for the treatment of T2D: dulaglutide, exenatide extended-release and semaglutide...

Over recent decades, an improved understanding of the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and glucose regulation has led to innovative research and new treatment paradigms. The discovery of the gut peptide glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and its role in glucose regulation paved the way for the class of GLP-1 receptor agonist compounds, or GLP-1RAs. The long-acting GLP-1RAs (dulaglutide, exenatide extended-release, liraglutide, semaglutide [injectable and oral]) are classified as such based on a minimum 24-hour duration of clinically relevant effects after administration...

PURPOSE: The goal of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of exenatide once weekly (EOW) and to determine predictors of treatment response and drug discontinuation in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) followed up for 18 months in a real-world setting. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included patients with T2DM who initiated EOW 2 mg between 2014 and 2019 in an outpatient diabetes clinic in Italy. Data were collected at baseline and at follow-up visits (6, 12, and 18 months after EOW)...

AIM: To examine the long-term efficacy of thiazolidinedione plus a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist versus basal-bolus insulin on glycaemic control and beta-cell function in patients with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes (T2D) on metformin plus sulphonylurea. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Three hundred and thirty-one patients with poorly controlled T2D were recruited over 3 years and were followed for an additional year. Subjects received a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) at baseline and at study end...

BACKGROUND: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive disorder characterised by both motor and non-motor problems. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, licensed for treatment of type 2 diabetes, work by stimulating GLP-1 receptors in the pancreas, which triggers the release of insulin. GLP-1 receptors have been found in the brain. Insulin signalling in the brain plays a key role in neuronal metabolism and repair and in synaptic efficacy, but insulin signalling is desensitised in the brain of people with PD...

BACKGROUND: The cardiovascular outcome trials (CVOTs) have shown that glucagon like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1RAs) have varying degrees of cardiovascular (CV) safety in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM.) The lack of any head-to-head comparative trials among GLP1RAs urged the need for an indirect comparison of these agents. Therefore, this study was conducted to indirectly compare the CV safety and mortality effects among different GLP1RAs in patients with T2DM using network meta-analysis (NMA)...

INTRODUCTION: The safety and efficacy of exenatide once weekly (EQW) is overall well established. EQW is primarily renally eliminated. In this study, the efficacy and renal and gastrointestinal tolerability of EQW were summarised in participants with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease stage 3 (CKD3; moderate renal impairment; estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] ≥ 30 to < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 ) or CKD stage 2 (CKD2; mild renal impairment; eGFR ≥ 60 to < 90 mL/min/1...

AIMS: This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of generic exenatide with branded exenatide Byetta® in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) inadequately controlled on monotherapy or combination therapy of metformin and insulin secretagogues. METHODS: A multicenter, randomized, controlled, non-inferiority trial was performed. A total of 240 patients with T2DM and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) ≥ 7% (53 mmol/mol) to ≤ 9.0% (75 mmol/mol) on monotherapy or combination therapy of metformin and insulin secretagogues for at least 3 months were randomized into generic exenatide or branded exenatide groups with a 1:1 ratio for 16 weeks of treatment...

OBJECTIVE: Exenatide once weekly (ExeOW) is one of the long-acting glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists. Embedding exenatide in poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) microspheres enables the once-weekly subcutaneous injection of exenatide as a treatment for diabetes. We report a case of a patient with type 2 diabetes and hypothyroidism who developed long-standing subcutaneous nodules after treatment by ExeOW injection. METHODS: Case report and review of the literature...

AIM: To determine the effects of individual and combined therapies on plasma insulin, glucagon, β-hydroxybutyrate (β-OH) and associated metabolites. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In DURATION-8, the combination of once-weekly exenatide (EQW) + 10 mg dapagliflozin (Dapa) in patients with type 2 diabetes poorly controlled with metformin-reduced HbA1c levels and body weight (at weeks 28 and 52) was compared with EQW + placebo (Plb) or Dapa + Plb. The study included 678 patients randomized 1:1:1 to EQW + Dapa, EQW + Plb, or Dapa + Plb...

OBJECTIVE: To fulfil an unmet therapeutic need for treating type 2 diabetes by developing an innovative oral drug delivery nanosystem increasing the production of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and the absorption of peptides into the circulation. DESIGN: We developed a nanocarrier for the oral delivery of peptides using lipid-based nanocapsules. We encapsulated the GLP-1 analogue exenatide within nanocapsules and investigated in vitro in human L-cells (NCl-H716) and murine L-cells (GLUTag cells) the ability of the nanosystem to trigger GLP-1 secretion...

Purpose: The importance of patient-centered care in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is widely advocated. Understanding the attributes of T2DM medications important to patients is thus essential for effective management, in order to limit disease progression. This literature review aimed to identify studies comparing patient preferences, based on process and outcome attributes, between GLP1-receptor agonist (RA) profiles and between GLP1 RA and insulin profiles. Methods: MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO, and the Cochrane Library (2005-present) were searched for studies in patients with T2DM or the general population that compared preferences for GLP1 RAs or GLP1 RAs versus insulin using contingent valuation, conjoint analysis (discrete-choice experiments [DCEs], willingness to pay), rating-based approaches of specific attributes, standard gamble, or time trade-off...

AIMS: To compare the effects of long-term treatment with the GLP-1RA exenatide twice-daily versus titrated insulin glargine (iGlar) on renal function and albuminuria in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients. METHODS: We post-hoc evaluated renal outcome-data of 54 overweight T2DM patients (mean  ± SD age 60 ± 8 years, HbA1c 7.5 ± 0.9%, eGFR 86 ± 16 mL/min/1.73 m2 , median [IQR] urinary albumin-to-creatinine-ratio (UACR) 0.75 [0.44-1.29] mg/mmol) randomised to exenatide 10 µg twice-daily or titrated iGlar on-top-of metformin for 52-weeks...

The study was to investigate circulating zinc-α2-glycoprotein (ZAG) concentrations in women with PCOS, and changes in ZAG levels after exenatide or metformin treatment. One hundred eighty-two women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) who met the 2003 Rotterdam diagnostic criteria and 150 controls without PCOS were recruited. We partitioned women with PCOS into groups according to body mass index or blood glucose concentrations, determined serum ZAG, anthropometric parameters, metabolic and endocrine indicators, and inflammatory markers, and statistically analyzed the results...

AIMS: Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogue approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. The impact of switching treatment from another GLP-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) to semaglutide was investigated by analyses of exposure-response models. METHODS: HbA1c and body weight time-course models were developed, using up to 30 weeks of observations from four trials in the semaglutide phase 3 programme. Given the recommended dosing for each GLP-1RA, pharmacokinetic profiles were simulated based on published population pharmacokinetic models and exposure was adjusted by the relative potencies to ensure that model predictions matched the effects observed in clinical trials...
