    Triple-hormone therapy demonstrates efficacy for type 2 diabetes and obesity

    Activation of the glucagon receptor with retatrutide is being investigated in a large phase 3 program that includes 14 trials and more than 22,000 participants. Researchers, including Ania Jastreboff, MD, PhD, shared data from two of the trials, TRANSCEND-T2D-1 and TRIUMPH-1.


  • Dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonist improves glycemic management and weight loss in adults living with type 1 diabetes and obesity

    Dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonist improves glycemic management and weight loss in adults living with type 1 diabetes and obesity

    Klara Klein, MD, PhD, and other researchers shared results from a phase 2, double-blind, randomized study of acmopatide. Study participants also experienced improvements in blood pressure and insulin dosing.


  • Positive data from multiple amylin trials draw focus to novel therapeutic mechanism

    Positive data from multiple amylin trials draw focus to novel therapeutic mechanism

    Investigators, including Carel le Roux, MBChB, FRCP, FRCPath, PhD, discussed findings from monotherapy and combination trials with the pancreatic beta cell hormone. “Not only are these weight loss drugs, these are also health-gain drugs,” Dr. le Roux said.


  • Ultra-long-acting GLP-1 RA improves weight loss in individuals with and without type 2 diabetes

    Ultra-long-acting GLP-1 RA improves weight loss in individuals with and without type 2 diabetes

    A Scientific Sessions panel shared new data from the VESPER trials. The long half-life of berobenatide makes investigators optimistic about its potential for monthly dosing.


  • Investigators to bring data on glucose management with oral orforglipron 

    Investigators to bring data on glucose management with oral orforglipron 

    Julio Rosenstock, MD, Francesco Giorgino, MD, PhD, and other panelists will discuss results from the ACHIEVE clinical trials, including ACHIEVE-3, which compared oral semaglutide and orforglipron for use in type 2 diabetes.


  • Researchers to share VESPER phase 2 clinical trial data

    Researchers to share VESPER phase 2 clinical trial data

    Investigators, including John B. Buse, MD, PhD, will discuss new insights from the VESPER program examining berobenatide, an ultra-long-acting glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist for weight management.


  • Symposium to analyze amylin as novel therapy for diabetes and weight loss

    Symposium to analyze amylin as novel therapy for diabetes and weight loss

    W. Timothy Garvey, MD, and other researchers will share new insights from trials, such as REDEFINE, exploring long-acting amylin analogs as mono-agonists and in combination with agonists for other hormone receptors.


  • Experts to review the benefits and challenges of GLP-1 RAs beyond diabetes and obesity

    Experts to review the benefits and challenges of GLP-1 RAs beyond diabetes and obesity

    Investigators will give an overview of new therapies coming into the market. Panelist Donna Ryan, MD, will discuss clinical trials for incretin-based therapies.


  • Experts to reveal results of retatrutide trials TRANSCEND-T2D-1 and TRIUMPH-1

    Experts to reveal results of retatrutide trials TRANSCEND-T2D-1 and TRIUMPH-1

    Jonathan Campbell, PhD, and other panelists will share new data and address how this triple-hormone receptor agonist may unlock the next frontier of treatment for obesity and type 2 diabetes.


  • Primary results for SOLSTICE and VISTA to be shared for the first time

    Primary results for SOLSTICE and VISTA to be shared for the first time

    Vanita R. Aroda, MD, and Melanie Davies, CBE, MBChB, MD, FRCP, FRCGP, FMedSci, will review the latest data for a novel oral glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist in people living with with type 2 diabetes or overweight or obesity.
