Summary: EXCEED is a non-interventional post-authorisation safety study aiming to assess the risk of developing pancreatic cancer among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients who initiated exenatide compared to those who initiated other non-glucagon like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) based glucose lowering drugs (GLDs). Study data will be collected from secondary data sources across 7 European c...

Summary: This is a retrospective cohort study of patients with T2DM who were treated with exenatide twice daily as a part of their diabetes care for at least 12 months. The objective of this study is to investigate the influence of T2DM susceptibility gene polymorphisms (NOS1AP, KCNQ1, TCF7L2, WSF1, GLP-1R, etc.) on the efficacy of GLP-1 RA (exenatide, liraglutide, etc.), to identify the variables that can...

Summary: Glucagon like peptide (GLP-1) agonists, such as liraglutide, exenatide, and semaglutide, have been increasingly used as a medication to address the current twin epidemics of diabetes and obesity. Their activities include increasing insulin production by pancreatic beta cells, improving insulin sensitivity in muscles and weight loss. The mechanisms underpinning the weight loss caused by GLP-1 agoni...

Summary: Cross-sectional, single-centre, 'low intervention' clinical study, without drug or medical device testing, with low-risk diagnostic technique.

Summary: Between 16% and 22% of type 1 diabetic patients present a clinical and biological profile of insulin resistance favored by a family history of type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome. They constitute a group of patients with double diabetes since they have both true type 1 diabetes and inherited insulin resistance, typical of type 2 diabetes. For several years, GLP1 agonists have been successfully u...

Summary: This study will determine the safety and tolerability of exenatide (Bydureon®) as a pharmacotherapy for cocaine use disorder. An inpatient human laboratory study will be conducted in which the self-administration of cocaine, as well as the subjective and physiological effects of cocaine, are evaluated during maintenance on placebo and exenatide. Although exenatide (Bydureon) is approved by the Foo...

Summary: Cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD), a result of neurovascular cell dysfunction, is a major cause of stroke, dementia and mobility problems worldwide. Vascular risk factor control alone may not be sufficient to prevent the development of vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) in patients with cSVD according to previous clinical trials. The presence of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) in cer...

Summary: This study is being done to study how exenatide, an FDA-approved drug that lowers blood sugar in non-pregnant patients with type II diabetes, works in pregnant women. To do this, the investigators will study the drug's pharmacokinetics (what the body does to the drug; specifically, how quickly your body breaks down and excretes exenatide) and pharmacodynamics (what the drug does to the body; speci...

Summary: A closed-loop insulin system, often labelled the artificial pancreas (AP), consists of an insulin pump, a continuous glucose monitor, and an interface coordinating between them to regulate insulin dosage based on glucose levels. Primarily designed for managing type 1 diabetes, this system has demonstrated significant benefits in previous studies. Yet, despite these advantages, certain challenges p...

Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine if exenatide improves end-of-treatment smoking abstinence rates and to determine if exenatide mitigates post-cessation weight gain.

Summary: This study is designed to help patients with type 2 diabetes and their clinicians: (a) identify which glucose lowering medications have the most favorable effects on heart health and other patient-important outcomes, (b) inform the timing of medication initiation, and (c) identify whether medication benefits apply equally to all adults with type 2 diabetes, or may be different based on age, sex, r...

Summary: Oxytocin (OT) is a hypothalamic peptide that enters the peripheral circulation via the posterior pituitary gland. OT plays a key role in regulating appetite, psychopathology, prosocial behavior and sexual function. Hypopituitarism is associated with increased obesity, increased psychopathology, sexual and prosocial dysfunction despite appropriate hormone replacement. A few studies suggest the exis...
