Background: Insulin efsitora alfa (efsitora) is a new basal insulin designed for once-weekly administration. Data on safety and efficacy have been limited to small, phase 1 or phase 2 trials.

Methods: We conducted a 52-week, phase 3, parallel-design, open-label, treat-to-target trial involving adults with type 2 diabetes who had not previously received insulin.

Objective: Basal Insulin Fc (BIF; insulin efsitora alfa; LY3209590), a fusion protein combining a novel single-chain insulin variant with a human IgG Fc domain, is designed for once-weekly basal insulin administration. This phase 2 study assessed safety and efficacy of BIF versus degludec in 265 patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) using multiple daily injections.

Research Design And Methods: During this randomized, parallel, open-label study, patients with T1D were randomized (1:1) to receive BIF once weekly or degludec once daily over the 26-week treatment period.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to compare the effectiveness of bexagliflozin tablets (20 mg) versus glimepiride in treating adults with type 2 diabetes who weren't adequately controlled by metformin.
  • A total of 426 adults were randomized, with the primary focus on changes in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels after 60 weeks, while secondary outcomes included body mass, blood pressure, and hypoglycemia occurrences.
  • Results showed bexagliflozin was noninferior to glimepiride in reducing HbA1c, outperformed it in reducing body weight and blood pressure, and led to fewer instances of hypoglycemia, along with a positive impact on kidney function.

Importance: The effects of tirzepatide, a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, as an addition to insulin glargine for treatment of type 2 diabetes have not been described.

Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of tirzepatide added to insulin glargine in patients with type 2 diabetes with inadequate glycemic control.

Design, Setting, And Participants: Randomized phase 3 clinical trial conducted at 45 medical research centers and hospitals in 8 countries (enrollment from August 30, 2019, to March 20, 2020; follow-up completed January 13, 2021) in 475 adults with type 2 diabetes and inadequate glycemic control while treated with once-daily insulin glargine with or without metformin.

Dasiglucagon is a next-generation glucagon analogue that is stable in aqueous formulation. This dedicated immunogenicity trial to support use as rescue treatment for severe hypoglycemia was conducted to evaluate the immunogenicity of repeated subcutaneous doses of dasiglucagon in subjects with type 1 diabetes. A total of 112 subjects were randomized 1:1 to receive three subcutaneous weekly doses of either 0.

Introduction: The PRONTO-T1D study, which evaluated the efficacy and safety of ultra rapid lispro (URLi) versus lispro in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D), met the primary endpoint of noninferiority of HbA1c change from baseline compared to lispro at 26 weeks. We present results of an additional 26-week treatment phase evaluating long-term efficacy and safety of URLi.

Methods: In this phase 3, treat-to-target study, subjects were randomized to double-blind mealtime URLi, lispro, or open-label postmeal URLi with insulin degludec or glargine for 26 weeks.

Aims: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ultra rapid lispro (URLi) versus lispro in adults with type 1 diabetes in a 26-week, treat-to-target, phase 3 trial.

Materials And Methods: After an 8-week lead-in to optimize basal insulin glargine or degludec, patients were randomized to double-blind mealtime URLi (n = 451) or lispro (n = 442), or open-label post-meal URLi (n = 329). The primary endpoint was change from baseline glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) to 26 weeks (non-inferiority margin 0.

The Pro12Ala polymorphism of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPARgamma(2)) is associated with reduced risk for type 2 diabetes. Although increased insulin sensitivity of glucose disposal and lipolysis has been reported, the exact mechanism by which the risk reduction is conferred is not clear. Because the conclusion of greater insulin sensitivity hinged upon lower insulin levels in some studies, it is possible that more efficient insulin clearance is involved.

The existence of metabolically relevant intramyocellular lipids (IMCL) as assessed by the noninvasive (1)H-magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) has been established. In the present studies, we analyzed the relationships between IMCL in two muscle types [the predominantly nonoxidative tibialis muscle (tib) and the predominantly oxidative soleus muscle (sol)] and anthropometric data, aerobic capacity (VO(2)max, bicycle ergometry, n = 77) and insulin sensitivity (hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp, n = 105) using regression analysis. In univariate regression, IMCL (tib) was weakly but significantly correlated with percentage of body fat (r = 0.

Purpose: To assess the muscular lipid content (LC) in different muscle groups of the lower leg by a magnetic resonance imaging technique working with chemical shift selective excitation, and comparison with anthropometric and metabolic data.

Materials And Methods: Examinations were performed in 67 volunteers (54 male/13 female, age 29 +/- seven years) on a 1.5 T whole body imager, applying a highly selective spectral-spatial technique for fat selective MRI.

Objective: To examine the effect of glimepiride on insulin-stimulated glycogen synthesis in cultured human skeletal muscle cells in comparison with glibenclamide.

Research Design And Methods: Myotubes derived from glucose-tolerant subjects were incubated with glimepiride or glibenclamide (0-100 micro mol/l) for 4 h and with or without insulin (100 nmol/l) for 2 h, and subsequently glycogen synthesis was determined.

Results: Glimepiride had no significant effect on basal glycogen synthesis; in contrast, glimepiride caused a dose-dependent increase of insulin-stimulated glycogen synthesis, with a maximal effect of 39.
