Aims: To systematically review evidence on the effect of fixed-ratio combinations on adherence in people with type 2 diabetes.
Methods: Systematic searches were conducted using MEDLINE and EMBASE in March 2023. Standardised screening, data extraction and risk of bias assessment were conducted. All review procedures were conducted independently by two reviewers. Eligible studies assessed the effect of fixed-ratio combinations on adherence in people with type 2 diabetes. Narrative synthesis was conducted to analyse findings.
Results: A total of 488 records were identified, of which 37 proceeded to full-text screening and 7 - each representing a unique study - were included in the systematic review. Among the included studies, 3 were randomised controlled trials and 4 were cohort studies. Following narrative synthesis, it was shown that fixed-ratio combinations improved patient satisfaction and treatment adherence.
Conclusions: Available evidence supports a benefit for fixed-ratio combinations on patient satisfaction and treatment adherence in people with type 2 diabetes.

Once-weekly IcoSema versus once-weekly semaglutide in adults with type 2 diabetes: the COMBINE 2 randomised clinical trial.
Diabetologia
January 2025
Internal Medicine Department, Endocrine Division (SEMPR), Universidade Federal do Paraná, Curitiba, Brazil.
Aims/hypothesis: COMBINE 2 assessed the efficacy and safety of once-weekly IcoSema (a combination therapy of basal insulin icodec and semaglutide) vs once-weekly semaglutide (a glucagon-like peptide-1 analogue) 1.0 mg in individuals with type 2 diabetes inadequately managed with GLP-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) therapy, with or without additional oral glucose-lowering medications.
Methods: This 52 week, randomised, multicentre, open-label, parallel group, Phase IIIa trial was conducted across 121 sites in 13 countries/regions.

Medical Care Center Endocrinology and Diabetology, Düsseldorf, Germany.
Aims: This study assessed efficacy and safety of the fixed ratio combination iGlarLixi 100/33 (insulin glargine 100 U/mL plus lixisenatide 33 μg/mL) in people with type 2 diabetes (PwT2D) in daily clinical practice.
Materials And Methods: This non-interventional, multicentre, prospective, single-arm 24-week study documented PwT2D with an HbA1c of 7.5%-10.
Influence of bee venom on antinociceptive activity of selected analgesic drugs in hot plate test in mice.

Department of Experimental Pharmacology, Institute of Rural Health, Lublin, Poland.
Introduction And Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of bee venom on the activity of two analgesics: ketoprofen (a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) and tramadol (an opioid drug) in the acute thermal pain model (hot-plate test) in mice.
Material And Methods: Linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the dose-response relationship between logarithms of drug doses and their resultant maximum possible anti-nociceptive effects in the mouse hot-plate test. Doses that increased the anti-nociceptive effect by 20% (ED values) for bee venom, ketoprofen and tramadol, and their combination were calculated from linear equations.
Evaluating semaglutide + LAI-287 (IcoSema) for the treatment of diabetes mellitus type II.
Expert Opin Pharmacother

Department of Medicine, University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, USA.
Introduction: A stepwise coordinated multiple therapeutic targeted approach to the treatment of type 2 diabetes includes starting with lifestyle modification, oral antihyperglycemic agents, non-insulin injectables (Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), and both short and long-acting insulins. Ultra-long-acting insulins offer more convenient administration. As in any chronic disease, the introduction of a novel medication must balance safety, efficacy, financial cost, as well as improved patient convenience and adherence.

Objective: Blood glucose levels of the majority of Filipino patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) remain uncontrolled. Insulin degludec/insulin aspart (IDegAsp) is a fixed-ratio co-formulation of the long-acting basal insulin degludec and the rapidacting prandial insulin aspart. The real-world ARISE (A Ryzodeg Initiation and Switch Effectiveness) study investigated clinical outcomes across six countries in people with T2D who initiated IDegAsp.
