Exercise-mimicking compound offers alternative to GLP-1 therapies

June 27, 2025
By Mar de Miguel
No Comments
An experimental drug for treating diabetes and obesity has been shown to lower blood sugar levels and increase fat burning. It is a β2-adrenergic receptor (β2AR) agonist that mimics the effects of physical exercise by activating skeletal muscle metabolism. Unlike GLP-1-based treatments such as semaglutide and tirzepatide, this new compound, developed by researchers at the Karolinska Institute, Stockholm University, and the biotech company Atrogi AB, does not suppress appetite or cause muscle loss.

Two new options presented at ADA for early diagnosis of T1D

June 24, 2025
By Annette Boyle
Classically, the diagnosis of type 1 diabetes comes after a patient presents with unexplained weight loss, extreme thirst and frequent urination and a lab test reveals off-the-charts blood glucose levels. At the 85th Scientific Sessions of the American Diabetes Association in Chicago, researchers highlighted two options – a blood test and a machine learning model – for diagnosing the disease much earlier in its progression, when damage to the pancreas' beta cells could be slowed.

EMA warns Ozempic linked to ‘very rare’ side effect

June 6, 2025
By Nuala Moran
No Comments
The EMA’s safety committee has issued a warning that the GLP-1 receptor agonist Ozempic (semaglutide, Novo Nordisk A/S) can cause an acute eye condition in which the optic nerve is damaged by a sudden loss of blood supply. After reviewing several large epidemiological studies, clinical trial and in-market data, EMA’s Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee has concluded non-anterior ischemic optic neuropathy is a “very rare” side effect of Ozempic, that “may affect up to one in 10,000 people taking semaglutide.

Fractyl, Bariendo developing off-ramp for post-GLP-1 maintenance

June 4, 2025
By Annette Boyle
Far from eliminating the need for weight-loss procedures, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists could drive more people to seek them out. At least that’s what Fractyl Health Inc. and Bariendo Inc. hope, and they have strong evidence to support their case with a recent meta-analysis showing that individuals discontinuing the popular weight loss medications regain all their weight and more within two years.

Abbott studies show CGM users have fewer hospitalizations

May 15, 2025
By Annette Boyle
A pair of studies published in Diabetologia demonstrate that use of continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) reduces hospitalizations in people with type 1 diabetes and in those with type 2 diabetes who use insulin compared to use of capillary blood glucose monitoring. Abbott Laboratories’s REFLECT real-world studies showed that use of its Freestyle Libre CGMs reduced the severity of cardiovascular conditions associated with diabetes and, consequently, led to fewer in-patient stays.
