The Effect of Glycemic Control and of GLP-1 Receptor Agonism on Islet GLP-1 in People
Summary: The investigators recently demonstrated that blockade of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1's (GLP-1) receptor (GLP1R) results in changes in islet function without changes in circulating GLP-1. These effects are more pronounced in people with early type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in keeping with increased expression of PC-1/3 and GLP-1 that is observed in diabetic islets. However, its regulation is at present unknown...
Examining the Utility of GLP-1 Agonists as Neuroprotective Agents Through a Pilot Clinical Trial in High Risk Population With Neurocognitive Deficits and Obesity
Summary: This study is for people who have multiple sclerosis, acute leukemia (in remission), or long-COVID and a Body Mass Index over 27 and may struggle with cognitive issues such as remembering information, concentrating, or making decisions that affect everyday life. By doing this study, researchers hope to learn how liraglutide (Saxenda®), a weight loss drug, affects levels of a certain disease marker...
Open-label, Randomised, 4 Parallel-group, Phase I Clinical Trial to Investigate BI 456906 Occupancy of Glucagon Receptors in Liver and Glucagon-like Peptide 1 Receptors in Pancreas in Comparison With Semaglutide After Administration of Radiolabeled Tracer in Male and Female Subjects With Obesity Using PET and MRI
Summary: This study is open to adults with obesity. People with a body mass index (BMI) in the range from 30 to 40 kg/m2 and a body weight of 70 to 150 kg can participate in the study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether treatment with a medicine called BI 456906 changes the occupancy of receptors in the liver and in the pancreas. These receptors are involved in appetite and weight regulation....
Department of Pharmacy, the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University
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...
Evaluation of Balance Tablets in Reducing Vitamin and Mineral Deficiencies in Patients Using GLP-1 Receptor Agonists for Weight Loss
Summary: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), including Ozempic (semaglutide) and Saxenda (liraglutide), are gaining traction in treating obesity and its associated diseases due to their capacity to facilitate substantial weight loss through mechanisms such as appetite suppression and delayed gastric emptying. Clinical trials have consistently shown that patients prescribed GLP-1 RAs can ...
Behavioral Therapy With and Without GLP-1 Analogue in Patients With Morbid Obesity and Binge Eating Disorder: A Clinical Prospective Observational Study on Body Weight, Binge Eating Behavior, and Harmful Coping Strategies
Summary: This study is a clinical, longitudinal, non-randomized, prospective observational study that seeks to compare the treatment effects and safety of using GLP-1 analogues versus not using appetite suppressants during a lifestyle treatment program that includes individual consultations every fourth month and 10 weeks of CBT-E group therapy in patients with both obesity and BED. The primary objective o...
A Prospective Multicenter International Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Surgical and Medical Therapies in the Treatment of Advanced Metabolic Dysfunction Associated Steatohepatitis
Summary: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), formerly known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a major global public health concern, is commonly associated with obesity, diabetes, and dyslipidemia. MASLD is currently the most common cause of chronic liver disease affecting about 80% of people with obesity, ranging from simple fat deposits in the liver to Metabolic D...
Comparative Investigation of Changes in Body Composition and Bone Turnover Markers in People With Obesity After Treatment With Tirzepatide Versus Liraglutide. A Prospective Cohort Study.
Summary: This prospective cohort study investigates the effects of tirzepatide versus liraglutide on bone turnover markers and body composition in adults with class 3 obesity, characterised by Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥40 kg/m². Participants will be followed for 6 months with assessments at baseline, 3 and 6. The primary outcome is the change in bone resorption marker C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen...
Investigating Enteroendocrine Dysfunction, Metabolism, and Response to Liraglutide in Patients With Maturity-onset Diabetes of the Young (MODY)
Summary: The reason for this research study is to better understand the use of liraglutide, a commonly prescribed Type 2 diabetes medication, in patients with a diagnosis of maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY). The investigators are interested in better understanding the way that this drug affects the metabolism and hormone levels of a person with MODY. Many people with MODY report having gastroint...
Liraglutide Treatment in Obese Infertile PCOS Women
Summary: Liraglutide, a hypoglycemic drug, can reduce weight and improve insulin resistance while stabilizing blood glucose metabolism without increasing the risk of hypoglycemia, and has been approved by the State Food and Drug Administration of China and the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of obesity. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the main cause of female anovulatory infertility, ...
Brown Adipose Tissue Activity in Response to Semaglutide Administered to Obese Subjects.
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...
Effects of Exercise and GLP-1 Agonism on Muscle Microvascular Perfusion and Insulin Action in Adults With Metabolic Syndrome
Summary: The primary objective of this study is to examine whether exercise training alone, liraglutide treatment alone or exercise training plus liraglutide treatment increases cardiac and skeletal muscle microvascular blood volume, improves vascular function of the conduit vessels, and enhances insulin's metabolic action in humans with Metabolic Syndrome. Subjects will be randomized to one of the 4 group...
