RESUMEN
In China, most normal BMI (body mass index of ≥18.5 to <25 kg/m2) adults with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) exhibit visceral adiposity. This study compared the effects of exenatide and humalog Mix25 on normal BMI patients with T2DM and visceral adiposity. A total of 95 patients were randomized to receive either exenatide or humalog Mix25 treatment for 24 weeks. Subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) were quantified by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and liver fat content (LFC) by liver proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H MRS). Each patient's weight, waist circumference, BMI, blood glucose, insulin sensitivity, pancreatic ß-cell function, and fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF-21) levels were measured. Data from 81 patients who completed the study (40 and 41 in the exenatide and humalog Mix25 groups, respectively) were analysed. The change in 2 h plasma blood glucose was greater in the exenatide group (P = 0.039). HOMA-IR and MBCI improved significantly after exenatide therapy (P < 0.01, P = 0.045). VAT and LFC decreased in both groups (P < 0.01 for all) but to a greater extent in the exenatide group, while SAT only decreased with exenatide therapy (P < 0.01). FGF-21 levels declined more in the exenatide group (P < 0.01), but were positively correlated with VAT in the entire cohort before (r = 0.244, P = 0.043) and after (r = 0.290, P = 0.016) the intervention. The effects of exenatide on glycaemic metabolism, insulin resistance, pancreatic ß-cell function, and fat deposition support its administration to normal BMI patients with T2DM and visceral adiposity.

BACKGROUND: Insulin therapy is the mainstay of treatment for type 1 diabetes and may be necessary in type 2 diabetes. Current insulin analogues present a more physiological profile, are effective, and with less risk of hypoglycemia, but they are expensive. Biosimilar insulins should offer the advantages of insulin analogues at reduced costs. In addition, current rapid-acting insulin analogues are not fast enough to control excessive postprandial glucose excursions in many patients. AREAS OF UNCERTAINTY: Biosimilar insulins demonstrated that are safe and effective, but interchangeability and automatic substitution remain an issue. Ultrafast-acting insulins should reduce postprandial hyperglycemia and improve flexibility in insulin dosing. DATA SOURCES: This systematic review was conducted following widely recommended methods. We searched for each topic in Medline, Embase, the Cochrane Library, and SCISEARCH for relevant citations for the appropriate period. THERAPEUTIC ADVANCES: LY2963016 and MK-1293 are biosimilar insulins of insulin glargine, and SAR342434 is a biosimilar of insulin lispro. The abbreviated developed program demonstrated comparable efficacy and safety and supports their use for treatment of people with diabetes but no interchangeability. Faster-acting insulin aspart is a new formulation of insulin aspart with accelerated subcutaneous absorption. Faster aspart demonstrated noninferiority in reducing HbA1c as compared to insulin aspart with superiority in controlling postprandial hyperglycemia without increasing hypoglycemia, and flexible insulin dosing. CONCLUSIONS: Biosimilar insulins have comparable PK-PD profiles and equivalent efficacy and safety to original insulins at a lower price, making them available for more people with diabetes. Faster aspart is the first ultrafast-acting insulin. New upcoming clinical trials and more clinical experience with faster aspart will show the real potential of this new insulin.

SAR342434 is a biosimilar of insulin lispro (Humalog® U-100). Batches of SAR342434 were compared with Humalog® batches of either EU or US origin in a panel of in vitro biological assays that included insulin binding to insulin receptor (IR) isoforms A (IR-A) and B (IR-B) and IR-A/IR-B autophosphorylation. A surface plasmon resonance biosensor-based assay was developed to characterize the kinetics of insulin binding to solubilized full-length IR-A or IR-B. Insulin-dependent metabolic activity assays included inhibition of lipolysis in in vitro differentiated human adipocytes, glucose uptake in L6-myocytes, and repression of glucose-6-phosphatase gene expression in human hepatocytes. Mitogenic activity assays included insulin binding to insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF1R), IGF1R autophosphorylation, and cell proliferation in MCF-7â¯cells. Weighted geometric means and their respective 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated for all 50% inhibitory or effective concentration values and kinetic binding constants for IR-A and IR-B. Statistical evaluation of the data demonstrated that the 90% CIs of the ratio of geometric means between SAR342434 and Humalog® EU or Humalog® US were within the predefined acceptance limits for each assay. Insulin lispro as SAR342434 solution demonstrated similarity to both US- and EU-approved Humalog® based on a side-by-side biological similarity assessment.

AIM OF THE STUDY: To test if changing the Iftar insulin to a 50:50 mixed analog insulin from a 30:70 human insulin at the same total dose leads to improvement in the postprandial blood glucose (taken as after the main meal). Since the intermediate acting insulin dose is effectively lowered, the pre-Suhur blood glucose is also tested to see if this rises. METHODS: The Iftar human 30:70 mixed insulin is substituted for a 50:50 one using insulin lispro protamine suspension and 50% insulin lispro (Humalog® Mix50/50™), whilst maintaining the same total dose. The participants were also changed to 75% insulin lispro protamine suspension and 25% insulin lispro (Humalog® Mix75/25™) at the same pre-Ramadan dose for their Suhur injection (Experimental group). A similar number of controls continued their 30:70 mixed human insulin at the same dose during Ramadan (Control group). Pre-Ramadan and during Ramadan fasting and postprandial (3 hours) and pre-Suhur blood glucose (BG) are tested in 20 subjects and 20 controls by the patients using home glucose meters. Hypoglycaemia, defined as a BG of ≤ 70 mg%, was tested for by the patients and noted if they experience symptoms of it. Severe hypoglycaemia occurred if the patient needed assistance for recovery. No insulin dose adjustments are made in either group and any other anti-diabetic treatment was continued. Pre- and post-Ramadan HbA1 c and body weight are measured. The number of days fasted and baseline characteristics are age, gender, and duration of diabetes are also noted. Differences between groups in parameters were assessed using ANCOVA to adjust for pre-Ramadan values of age, gender, and duration of diabetes. RESULTS: All the participants fasted for at least 29 days. The 2 groups were not significantly different at baseline. During Ramadan, mean postprandial BG in the Experimental group was lower by 21.1 mg% (1.2 mmol/l) (95% CI 12.6, 29.7; P < 0.001). Similarly, after Ramadan mean HbA1 c in the Experimental group was lower by 0.4% (95% CI 0.1%, 0.8%; P = 0.01). No significant differences between the groups were detected in mean bodyweight after Ramadan (P = 0.86) or mean fasting BG during Ramadan (P = 0.07). There was no difference in incidence of hypoglycaemia. CONCLUSIONS: Switching from human insulin mix 30:70 to analog insulin mix 50:50 results in better post main meal control in Ramadan, without affecting HbA1c, or increasing the incidence of hypoglycaemia.

AIMS: Insulin-treated patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity are challenged in achieving body weight stability or reduction, in addition to glycaemic control. Post-hoc analyses of body weight and insulin dose data from the AWARD-4 trial involved comparison of treatment with once-weekly dulaglutide 1.5 mg (N = 295) or 0.75 mg (N = 293) and treatment with daily insulin glargine (N = 296), each with prandial insulin lispro (± metformin). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Changes in weight and in the proportion of patients without weight gain or with weight loss of at least 3%, 5% or 10% or composites of HbA1c less than 7% without weight gain and weight loss of at least 3% after 52 weeks were compared between the dulaglutide (either dose) groups and the insulin glargine group, overall and by baseline BMI (<30, 30-<35, ≥35 kg/m2 ), using analysis of covariance and logistic regression, including interaction terms. RESULTS: The following parameters were statistically significant (P < 0.01) in favour of the dulaglutide-treated groups, at lower mean total daily insulin doses, vs the insulin glargine group. The achieved targets were more pronounced with dulaglutide 1.5 mg than with insulin glargine: LSM weight change difference, -3.23 kg; proportion of patients without weight gain, 49.0% vs 19.0%; proportion of patients with weight loss ≥3%, 21.7% vs 5.7% or with weight loss ≥5%, 10.5% vs 2.4%; proportion of patients with HbA1c <7% without weight gain, 26.2% vs 7.9%; proportion of patients with HbA1c <7% and weight loss ≥3%, 11.9% vs 1.4%, respectively. Treatment effect for these parameters was not significantly different across BMI categories. CONCLUSIONS: Larger proportions of patients in late-stage T2D needing treatment intensification achieved glycemic control without weight gain or with weight loss at lower insulin doses with once-weekly dulaglutide plus daily prandial insulin than with a basal-bolus insulin regimen, overall and across all three BMI subgroups.

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of intensive insulin therapy (premixed insulin lispro vs. insulin glargine) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS: MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, and www.clinicaltrials.gov were systematically searched for randomized clinical trials (RCTs) of patients with T2DM treated with either premixed insulin lispro or insulin glargine for a duration of 24 weeks. RESULTS: A total of 13 RCTs and 5401 patients were included in this study. In parallel trials and crossover trials, premixed insulin lispro was found to be superior to insulin glargine at reducing glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) (parallel trials: weighted mean difference [WMD] -0.18%; 95% confidence interval [CI] -0.31 to -0.06; P = 0.004; crossover trials: WMD 0.37%; 95% CI -0.51 to -0.23; P < 0.00001). Premixed insulin lispro resulted in more weight gain than insulin glargine (parallel trials: WMD +0.64 kg; 95% CI +0.14 to +1.15; P = 0.01; crossover trials: WMD +0.74 kg; 95% CI +0.19 to +1.29; P = 0.009), and premixed insulin lispro was associated with a higher risk of hypoglycemia than insulin glargine (parallel trials: odds ratio [OR] 1.20; 95% CI 1.06-1.36; P = 0.005; crossover trials: OR 2.24; 95% CI 1.45-3.46; P = 0.0003). CONCLUSIONS: Premixed insulin lispro provides a larger reduction in HbA1c and is associated with a significantly higher risk of hypoglycemia and greater weight gain in patients with T2DM. These findings may be helpful in selecting therapy for individual subjects.

Since the discovery of amylin its use has been discouraged by the inadequacy of the protocol involving multiple injections in addition to insulin. We aimed here to develop a combined fixed-dose formulation of pramlintide with fast-acting insulin. We have investigated the compatibility of regular and fast-acting insulin analogues (Aspart, AspB28, and LisPro, LysB28ProB29) with the amylin analogue pramlintide by using electrospray ionization - ion mobility spectrometry-mass spectrometry (ESI-IMS-MS), kinetic aggregation assays monitored by thioflavin T, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) in the evaluation of the aggregation product. Insulin interacts with pramlintide, forming heterodimers as probed by ESI-IMS-MS. While their interaction is likely to delay the amyloid aggregation of pramlintide in phosphate-buffered solution pH 7.0, they do not prevent aggregation at this condition. At acidic sodium acetate solution pH 5.0, combination of pramlintide and the fast-acting insulin analogues become stable against amyloid aggregation. The co-formulated product at high concentration of both pramlintide (600⯵g/mL,150⯵M) and LisPro insulin (50â¯IU/mL, 300⯵M) showed also stability against amyloid aggregation. These data indicate the physico-chemical short-term stability of the co-formulated preparation of LisPro insulin with pramlintide, which could bring benefits for the combined therapy.

AIMS: To identify baseline characteristics associated with better efficacy and safety responses to twice-daily insulin lispro low mixture (LM) or once-daily insulin glargine (IG) in insulin-naïve patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). METHODS: This post hoc analysis of the DURABLE study used the gradient-boosting method to generate hypothetical outcomes with the alternative treatment to assigned study drug to evaluate the potential additional benefit of one insulin over the other in association with influential baseline covariates in the same patient. The magnitude of additional benefit was further quantified by the generalized linear model and recursive partitioning regression tree method. RESULTS: Baseline characteristics with the highest relative influence on 24-week outcomes in the overall population (LM, nâ¯=â¯1045; IG, nâ¯=â¯1046) were: for HbA1c change: fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (29.31%), age (28.57%); for reaching target HbA1câ¯<7% (<53â¯mmol/mol): weight (22.41%); for weight change: weight (18.54%); for FPG: FPG (43.66%), age (20.8%); for 30-day hypoglycemia: FPG (57.09%), weight (10.1%). LM showed superiority over IG for HbA1c reduction and reaching HbA1câ¯<7% overall, with clinically significant differences in HbA1c reduction (>0.4%) in some subpopulations. IG was superior over LM in most patients for less weight gain and hypoglycemia and lower FPG. CONCLUSIONS: Differences in magnitude of response to twice-daily LM and once-daily IG in association with baseline characteristics of insulin-naïve patients with T2D were found. Future real-world studies using these statistical methods could help identify patients who respond better to certain insulin regimens to help guide clinicians in treatment decisions.

The inability to achieve optimal diabetes glucose control in people with diabetes is multifactorial, but one contributor may be inadequate control of postprandial glucose. In patients treated with multiple daily injections of insulin, both the dose and timing of meal-related rapid-acting insulin are key factors in this. There are conflicting opinions and evidence on the optimal time to administer mealtime insulin. We performed a comprehensive literature search to review the published data, focusing on the use of rapid-acting insulin analogues in patients with Type 1 diabetes. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies of rapid-acting insulin analogues, together with postprandial glucose excursion data, suggest that administering these 15-20 min before food would provide optimal postprandial glucose control. Data from clinical studies involving people with Type 1 diabetes receiving structured meals and rapid-acting insulin analogues support this, showing a reduction in post-meal glucose levels of ~30% and less hypoglycaemia when meal insulin was taken 15-20 min before a meal compared with immediately before the meal. Importantly, there was also a greater risk of postprandial hypoglycaemia when patients took rapid-acting analogues after eating compared with before eating.

AIMS: Basal insulin peglispro (BIL), a novel PEGylated basal insulin with a large hydrodynamic size, has a delayed absorption and reduced clearance that prolongs the duration of action. The current study compared the effects of BIL and insulin glargine (GL) on endogenous glucose production (EGP), glucose disposal rate (GDR) and lipolysis in patients with type 1 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a randomized, open-label, four-period, crossover study. Patients received intravenous infusions of BIL and GL, each at two dose levels selected for partial and maximal suppression of EGP, during an 8 to 10 h euglycemic clamp procedure with d-[3-3 H] glucose. RESULTS: Following correction for equivalent human insulin concentrations (EHIC), low-dose GL infusion resulted in similar EGP at the end of the clamp compared to low-dose BIL infusion (GL/BIL ratio of 1.03) but a higher GDR (GL/BIL ratio of 2.42), indicating similar hepatic activity but attenuated peripheral activity of BIL. Consistent with this, the EHIC-corrected GDR/EGP at the end of the clamp was 1.72-fold greater for GL than BIL following low-dose administration. At the lower dose of BIL and GL (concentrations in the therapeutic range), BIL produced less suppression of lipolysis compared with GL as indicated by free fatty acid and glycerol levels at the end of the clamp. CONCLUSIONS: Compared with GL, BIL restored the hepato-peripheral insulin action gradient seen in normal physiology via its peripherally restricted action on target tissues related to carbohydrate and lipid metabolism.

Basal insulin peglispro (BIL) is a novel basal insulin with a flat, prolonged activity profile. BIL has been demonstrated in a dog model, in healthy men and in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) to have significant hepato-preferential action resulting from reduced peripheral activity. In the IMAGINE-Phase 3 clinical trial program, more than 6000 patients were included, of whom ~3900 received BIL. Of the 7 pivotal IMAGINE trials, 3 studies were double-blinded and 3 were in T1D patients. BIL consistently demonstrated a greater HbA1c reduction, less glycaemic variability and a clinically relevant reduction in the rates of nocturnal hypoglycaemia across comparator [glargine and isophane insulin (NPH)] studies. Trials using basal/bolus regimens had higher rates of total hypoglycaemia with BIL due to higher rates of daytime hypoglycaemia. Severe hypoglycaemia rates were similar to comparator among both patients with T1D or type 2 diabetes (T2D). T1D patients lost weight compared with glargine (GL). Patients with T2D tended to gain less weight with BIL than with glargine. Compared to glargine, BIL was associated with higher liver fat, triglycerides and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels, including a higher frequency of elevation of ALT ≥3 times the upper limit of normal, but without severe, acute drug-induced liver injury. Injection site reactions, primarily lipohypertrophy, were more frequent with BIL. In conclusion, BIL demonstrated better glycaemic control with reduced glucose variability and nocturnal hypoglycaemia but higher triglycerides, ALT and liver fat relative to conventional comparator insulin. The hepato-preferential action of BIL with reduced peripheral activity may account for these findings.

Basal insulin peglispro (BIL) is a novel basal insulin with hepato-preferential action resulting from reduced peripheral effects. This report provides an integrated summary of lipid changes at 26 weeks with BIL and comparator insulins (glargine, NPH) from phase III studies in type 1 diabetes (T1D), insulin-naïve patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), patients with T2D on basal insulin only and patients with T2D on basal-bolus therapy. BIL treatment had little effect on HDL cholesterol and LDL cholesterol in all patients. The effect of both BIL and glargine treatment on triglycerides (TG) depended on whether patients had been previously treated with insulin. When BIL replaced conventional insulin glargine or NPH treatments, increases in TG levels were observed. When BIL or comparator insulins were given for 26 weeks to insulin-naïve patients with T2D, TG levels were unchanged from baseline with BIL but decreased with either glargine or NPH. The decreased peripheral action of BIL may reduce suppression of lipolysis in peripheral adipose tissue resulting in increased free fatty acid delivery to the liver and, hence, increased hepatic TG synthesis and secretion.

Insulin lispro 200 U/mL (IL200) is a new strength formulation of insulin lispro (Humalog®, IL100), developed as an option for diabetic patients on higher daily mealtime insulin doses. This phase 1, open-label, 2-sequence, 4-period crossover, randomized, 8-hour euglycemic clamp study aimed to demonstrate the bioequivalence of IL200 and IL100 after subcutaneous administration of 20 U (U) to healthy subjects (n = 38). Pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) responses were similar in both formulations. All 90%CIs for the ratios of area under the concentration-versus-time curve from time zero to the time of the last measurable concentration (AUC0-tlast) and maximum observed drug concentration (Cmax), as well as the total glucose infused throughout the clamp (Gtot) and the maximum glucose infusion rate (Rmax), were contained within 0.80 and 1.25. Time of maximum observed drug concentration (tmax) was similar between formulations, with a median difference of 15 minutes and a 95%CI of the difference that included zero. Inter- and intrasubject variability estimates were similar for both formulations. Both formulations were well tolerated. IL200 was bioequivalent to IL100 after subcutaneous administration of 20-U single doses, and PD responses were comparable between formulation strengths.

The aim of this research was to characterize the in vivo and in vitro properties of basal insulin peglispro (BIL), a new basal insulin, wherein insulin lispro was derivatized through the covalent and site-specific attachment of a 20-kDa polyethylene-glycol (PEG; specifically, methoxy-terminated) moiety to lysine B28. Addition of the PEG moiety increased the hydrodynamic size of the insulin lispro molecule. Studies show there is a prolonged duration of action and a reduction in clearance. Given the different physical properties of BIL, it was also important to assess the metabolic and mitogenic activity of the molecule. Streptozotocin (STZ)-treated diabetic rats were used to study the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics of BIL. Binding affinity and functional characterization of BIL were compared with those of several therapeutic insulins, insulin AspB10, and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). BIL exhibited a markedly longer time to maximum concentration after subcutaneous injection, a greater area under the concentration-time curve, and a longer duration of action in the STZ-treated diabetic rat than insulin lispro. BIL exhibited reduced binding affinity and functional potency as compared with insulin lispro and demonstrated greater selectivity for the human insulin receptor (hIR) as compared with the human insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor. Furthermore, BIL showed a more rapid rate of dephosphorylation following maximal hIR stimulation, and reduced mitogenic potential in an IGF-1 receptor-dominant cellular model. PEGylation of insulin lispro with a 20-kDa PEG moiety at lysine B28 alters the absorption, clearance, distribution, and activity profile receptor, but does not alter its selectivity and full agonist receptor properties.

The common insulin concentration in most preparations of insulin is 100 units per mL or U-100. Human regular U-500 insulin was the first concentrated insulin introduced and it has been available in the United States since the 1950s. Humulin R is the only human regular U-500 available on the market. Human regular U-500 is five times more concentrated than U-100 and because of its pharmacodynamic properties, works as both a basal and a bolus insulin. Human regular U500 allows for delivery of a larger insulin dose with a smaller volume leading to better absorption compared to U-100 and has traditionally been used in patients with moderate to severe insulin resistance. More recently other forms of concentrated insulin have become available and the newer concentrated insulin preparations can be used in diabetic patients with or without insulin resistance. Our intent is to provide primary care physicians with a review of the pharmacology and current literature on concentrated insulins as well as recommendations for patient selection, dose initiation, and dose adjustment.

AIMS: To compare metabolic control under lispro and recombinant regular human insulin (RHI) in people with diet-unresponsive type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and compensated non-alcoholic liver disease (CLD). METHODS: 108 people with T2DM and CLD were randomly allocated to RHI or lispro according to a 12+12 week cross-over protocol. A 1-week continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) session was performed at the end of each treatment period followed by a standard meal test with a 12IU lispro or RHI shot ahead. RESULTS: CGM showed higher glycemic excursions under RHI than under lispro (p<0.01) with lower glucose levels in the late post-absorption phase (p<0.05) and even more during the night (p<0.01). Post-challenge incremental areas under the curve (ΔAUC) were undistinguishable for insulin but lower for glucose, while insulin peaked higher and earlier and glycemic excursions were lower with lispro than with RHI (0.05

BACKGROUND: We have previously shown that both insulin and IGF1 lead to increased proliferation of keratinocytes. However, whereas insulin supports keratinocytes differentiation, IGF1 inhibits this process. The aim of the present study was to examine the proliferative and differentiative effects of insulin analogues (glargine, detemir, lispro and aspart) in primary keratinocytes in comparison with insulin and IGF1. METHODS: Primary keratinocytes cultures were produced from newborn BALB/c mice skin. Proliferation rates were assessed by [(3)H]-thymidine incorporation and XTT assays and differentiation was evaluated by Western blots analysis. Insulin receptor and IGF1 receptor phosphorylation was assessed by immunoprecipitation assays. RESULTS: Treatment with glargine or detemir resulted in an insulin-like effect on the differentiation process whereas lispro and aspart treatment led to an IGF1-like effect. In addition, treatment of keratinocytes with aspart led to a rapid phosphorylation of the IGF1 receptor. CONCLUSIONS: Our study provides evidence that insulin analogues elicit atypical actions in the skin.

Since its discovery almost a century ago, insulin remains the mainstay of treatment of patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Although progress in the synthesis of new formulations has been remarkable, the physiological profile of insulin is still different from that observed with preparations available nowadays. In the last decade, the introduction into clinical practice of insulin analogues has allowed significantly improvement in glycemic control and has facilitated the spread of basal/bolus patterns, the most physiological ones until now. Despite the benefits of basal analogues, glycemia often varies considerably when used as a single daily injection and this is why new molecules have been further investigated. Improvement has been achieved especially in terms of duration and rate of hypoglycemia, the main limiting factor of intensive therapy. This article reviews the available data concerning the new basal insulin analogues, degludec, pegylated lispro and glargine U300, and new formulations currently under development.

There is a clinical rationale for a basal insulin with a predictable action and low inter- and intra-individual variability coupled with an improved side effect and metabolic profile. Since insulin therapy is anabolic and its initiation is commonly associated with weight gain, an insulin preparation associated with a beneficial weight profile would represent a particularly valuable therapeutic entity. LY2605541, or PEGylated insulin Lispro, has a large hydrodynamic size while still exerting the metabolic effects of insulin. This may reduce absorption and clearance of the compound following subcutaneous administration. A number of preclinical and clinical studies have been constructed to evaluate the utility of this novel insulin. The currently available data from preclinical, phase I and phase II studies suggests LY2605541 has a non-inferior glucose-lowering efficacy compared to insulin glargine in people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes and may afford a weight-loss advantage. Pre-clinical studies indicate that LY2605541 has low mitogenic potency, exerting a preferential hepatic effect on glucose homeostasis. LY2605541 appears to cause elevated transaminases and derangement of lipid profiles. On the basis of these initial observations, LY2605541 requires further extensive clinical evaluation to fully assess its risk/benefit profile in the management in people with diabetes.
