Relationship Between Body Weight Change and Glycaemic Control with Tirzepatide Treatment in People with Type 2 Diabetes: A Post Hoc Assessment of the SURPASS Clinical Trial Programme

Diabetes Obes Metab. 2023;25:2553–2560

Given that improvements in glycaemic control may be linked to both weight-independent and weight-dependent mechanisms, it is of interest to understand how changes in glycaemia and weight seen with tirzepatide are related. This post hoc analysis assessed the relationship between HbA1c and body weight reductions with tirzepatide treatment (5, 10 or 15 mg) across the SURPASS clinical trial programme.

Efficacy and Safety of Co-Administered Once-weekly Cagrilintide 2.4 mg with Once-Weekly Semaglutide 2.4 mg in Type 2 Diabetes: a Multicentre, Randomised, Double-Blind, Active-Controlled, Phase 2 Trial

Lancet. 2023. DOI: 10.1016/ S0140-6736(23)01163-7

Combining the GLP-1 RA semaglutide with the long-acting amylin analogue cagrilintide has been shown to have weight-loss benefits. However, the impact of the combination of cagrilintide and semaglutide (CagriSema) on HbA1c is unknown. In a 32-week, double-blind, phase 2 trial, 92 adults with T2D and a BMI ≥27 kg/m2 on metformin, with or without an SGLT2i, were randomised to once-weekly subcutaneous CagriSema, semaglutide or cagrilintide (all escalated to 2.4 mg).
