Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) related bone fracture. The effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor analogs for the treatment of T2DM on bone are controversial in human studies. This study aimed to compare the effects of GLP-1 receptor analogs exenatide and insulin glargine treatment on bone turnover marker levels and bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal female patients with T2DM. Thirty female patients with T2DM who were naive to insulin and incretin-based treatments, with spontaneous postmenopause, were randomized to exenatide or insulin glargine arms and were followed up for 24 weeks. BMD was evaluated using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and bone turnover markers by serum enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The body mass index significantly decreased in the exenatide group compared to the glargine group (P < .001). Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B (RANK) and RANK ligand (RANKL) levels were significantly decreased with exenatide treatment (P = .009 and P = .015, respectively). Osteoprotegerin (OPG) level significantly increased with exenatide treatment (P = .02). OPG, RANK, RANKL levels did not change with insulin glargine treatment. No statistically significant difference was found between the pre- and posttreatment BMD, alkaline phosphatase, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, and type 1 crosslinked N-telopeptide levels in both treatment arms. Despite significant weight loss with exenatide treatment, BMD did not decrease, OPG increased, and the resorption markers of RANK and RANKL decreased, which may reflect early antiresorptive effects of exenatide via the OPG/RANK/RANKL pathway.

Characterizing and mitigating factors that impact product immunogenicity can aid in risk assessment and/or managing risk following manufacturing changes. For follow-on products that have the same indication, patient population, and active product ingredient, the residual immunogenicity risk resides predominantly on differences in product and process related impurities. Characterizing differences in innate immune modulating impurities (IIRMI), which could act as adjuvants by activating local antigen presenting cells (APCs), can inform the immunogenicity risk assessment potentially reducing the need for clinical trials.

Introduction: ONWARDS 5 evaluated the effectiveness and safety of insulin icodec (icodec) titrated with a dosing guide app (icodec with app) versus once-daily insulin analogs in insulin-naive adults with type 2 diabetes. The insulin glargine U300 (glargine U300) stratum was too small to enable a robust post hoc efficacy comparison. Augmentation methodology was applied to increase the glargine U300 group size using real-world data (RWD), to facilitate efficacy comparisons of icodec with app versus glargine U300, and to demonstrate the potential of the augmentation methodology to strengthen underpowered treatment comparisons (AUGMENT study).

Aims: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of insulin glargine 300 U/mL (Gla-300) in people with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes (T2D) switching from another basal insulin (BI).

Materials And Methods: INITIATION was an interventional, single-arm, phase IV study conducted in China. In this post hoc subpopulation analysis, the efficacy and safety of switching to Gla-300 was investigated in individuals with uncontrolled T2D (HbA1c 7.

Objective: No meta-analysis has been published comparing the efficacy and safety of tirzepatide versus once-daily basal insulins in subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D) inadequately controlled with oral anti-hyperglycemic drugs (OADs). This meta-analysis was conducted to address this knowledge gap.

Methods: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving subjects with T2D inadequately controlled with OADs and receiving tirzepatide in intervention arm and basal insulins in control arm as add-on therapy were searched throughout the electronic databases.
