Impact of a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide/glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist tirzepatide on heart rate among patients with type 2 diabetes: A systematic review and pairwise and network meta-analysis.
To evaluate the impact of a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist tirzepatide (TZP), and its potential dose-response effect, on heart rate.
Articles were searched from PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, and clinical trials registries (ClinicalTrials.gov) databases. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing TZP at doses of 5, 10 and 15 mg in adults with type 2 diabetes were included. Six study arms were summarized from original research (TZP 5, 10 and 15 mg, GLP-1 receptor agonists [GLP-1RAs], insulin, placebo). The GLP-1RA and non-GLP-1RA groups were combined to form a control group. Two reviewers independently extracted data and assessed the quality of each study. Mean differences (MDs) were calculated as effect estimates for continuous outcomes. Pairwise meta-analyses and network meta-analyses were conducted. The study protocol was prospectively registered (PROSPERO ID: CRD42023418551).
Eight articles were included in this systematic review and meta-analysis. The mean baseline heart rate ranged from 65.2 to 75.7 beats per minute. Pairwise meta-analysis showed that, compared with combined the control group, there were significantly greater increases in heart rates in the TZP group (MD 1.82, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.75, 2.89). Similar significant rises were identified when comparing TZP with GLP-1RAs and non-GLP-1RAs (GLP-1 RAs: MD 2.29, 95% CI 1.00, 3.59; non-GLP-1RAs: MD 1.58, 95% CI 0.26, 2.91). TZP 5 mg was associated with smaller increases in heart rates compared to TZP 10 mg and TZP 15 mg (TZP 10 mg: MD -0.97, 95% CI -1.79, -0.14; TZP 15 mg: MD -2.57, 95% CI -3.79, -1.35). TZP 10 mg increased heart rate less than TZP 15 mg (MD -1.5, 95% CI -2.38, -0.82). Network meta-analysis indicated that TZP 15 mg was associated with significant increases in heart rate compared with TZP 5 mg (MD 2.53, 95% CI 1.43, 3.62), TZP 10 mg (MD 1.44, 95% CI 0.35, 2.53), GLP-1RAs (MD 3.46, 95% CI 1.67, 5.25), insulin (MD 2.86, 95% CI 1.32, 4.41) and placebo (MD 2.96, 95% CI 1.36, 4.57).
Our study showed not only that there was a greater increase in heart rate in the TZP group than in the control, GLP-1RA and non-GLP-1RA groups, but also that the 15-mg dose of TZP had the strongest impact on increasing heart rates compared with the other five inventions, with a TZP dose-response impact on heart rate. Further research on the effects of TZP treatment-related increases in heart rate is required.

Comparative effectiveness of GLP-1 receptor agonists on glycaemic control, body weight, and lipid profile for type 2 diabetes: systematic review and network meta-analysis.
To evaluate the comparative efficacy and safety of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) on glycaemic control, body weight, and lipid profile in adults with type 2 diabetes.
Systematic review and network meta-analysis.
PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), and Embase from database inception to 19 August 2023.
Eligible randomised controlled trials enrolled adults with type 2 diabetes who received GLP-1RA treatments and compared effects with placebo or any GLP-1RA drug, with a follow-up duration of at least 12 weeks. Trials with a crossover design, non-inferiority studies comparing GLP-1RA and other drug classes without a placebo group, using withdrawn drugs, and non-English studies were deemed ineligible.
76 eligible trials involving 15 GLP-1RA drugs and 39 246 participants were included in this network meta-analysis; all subsequent estimates refer to the comparison with placebo. All 15 GLP-1RAs effectively lowered haemoglobin A1c and fasting plasma glucose concentrations. Tirzepatide induced the largest reduction of haemoglobin A1c concentrations (mean difference -2.10% (95% confidence interval -2.47% to -1.74%), surface under the cumulative ranking curve 94.2%; high confidence of evidence), and fasting plasma glucose concentrations (-3.12 mmol/L (-3.59 to -2.66), 97.2%; high confidence), and proved the most effective GLP-1RA drug for glycaemic control. Furthermore, GLP-1RAs were shown to have strong benefits to weight management for patients with type 2 diabetes. CagriSema (semaglutide with cagrilintide) resulted in the highest weight loss (mean difference -14.03 kg (95% confidence interval -17.05 to -11.00); high confidence of evidence), followed by tirzepatide (-8.47 kg (-9.68 to -7.26); high confidence). Semaglutide was effective in lowering the concentration of low density lipoprotein (-0.16 mmol/L (-0.30 to -0.02)) and total cholesterol (-0.48 mmol/L (-0.84 to -0.11)). Moreover, this study also raises awareness of gastrointestinal adverse events induced by GLP-1RAs, and concerns about safety are especially warranted for high dose administration.
GLP-1RAs are efficacious in treating adults with type 2 diabetes. Compared with the placebo, tirzepatide was the most effective GLP-1RA drug for glycaemic control by reducing haemoglobin A1c and fasting plasma glucose concentrations. GLP-1RAs also significantly improved weight management for type 2 diabetes, with CagriSema performing the best for weight loss. The results prompt safety concerns for GLP-1RAs, especially with high dose administration, regarding gastrointestinal adverse events.

Once-weekly semaglutide versus placebo in adults with increased fracture risk: a randomised, double-blinded, two-centre, phase 2 trial.
Previous studies have indicated that glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) may enhance bone formation and have neutral or beneficial effects on fracture risk. We evaluated the effect of the GLP-1RA semaglutide on the bone formation marker Procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide (PINP) in adults with increased fracture risk.
This randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blinded, phase 2 clinical trial was conducted at two public hospitals in Denmark. We enrolled 64 men and women with increased fracture risk based on a T-score < -1.0 at the total hip or lumbar spine and/or low-energy fracture within three years of recruitment. Participants were randomised (1:1) to receive once-weekly subcutaneous semaglutide 1.0 mg or placebo. The primary outcome was changes in plasma (P)-PINP from baseline to week 52. Primary and safety outcomes were assessed and evaluated for all participants. This trial is complete and registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04702516.
Between March 24 and December 8, 2021, 55 (86%) postmenopausal women and nine men with a mean age of 63 years (SD 5.5) and BMI of 27.5 kg/m2 (SD 4.5) were enrolled. There was no effect on changes in P-PINP from baseline to week 52 between the two groups (estimated treatment difference (ETD) semaglutide versus placebo 3.8 μg/L [95% CI -5.6 to 13.3]; p = 0.418), and no difference in P-PINP levels between groups at week 52 (semaglutide 64.3 μg/L versus placebo 62.3 μg/L [95% CI -10.8 to 15.0]; p = 0.749). The secondary outcomes showed higher plasma levels of bone resorption marker Collagen type I cross-linked C-terminal telopeptide (P-CTX) in the semaglutide group than in the placebo group (ETD 166.4 ng/L [95% CI 25.5-307.3]; p = 0.021). Compared to placebo, lumbar spine and total hip areal bone mineral densities (aBMD) were lower in the semaglutide group after 52 weeks ((ETD lumbar spine -0.018 g/cm3 [95% CI -0.031 to -0.005]; p = 0.007); ETD total hip -0.020 g/cm2 ([95% CI -0.032 to -0.008]; p = 0.001). Treatment differences in femoral neck aBMD were not observed ([95% CI [-0.017 to 0.006]; p = 0.328). Further, body weight was lower in the semaglutide group than in the placebo group after 52 weeks (ETD -6.8 kg [95% CI -8.8 to -4.7]; p < 0.001). Thirty-one [97%] in the semaglutide group and 18 [56%] in the placebo group experienced at least one adverse event, including four serious events (two in each group). No episodes of hypoglycaemia or deaths were reported.
In adults with increased fracture risk, semaglutide once weekly did not increase bone formation based on the bone formation marker P-PINP. The observed increase in bone resorption in the semaglutide group may be explained by the accompanying weight loss.

Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists and Diabetic Osteopathy: Another Positive Effect of Incretines? A 12 Months Longitudinal Study.
Diabetic osteopathy is a frequent complication in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The association between T2DM and increased fracture risk has led to study the impact of new antidiabetic drugs on bone metabolism. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are incretin mimetic drugs which have many pleiotropic properties. The relationship between GLP-1RAs and bone is very complex: while in vitro and animal studies have demonstrated a protective effect on bone, human studies are scarce. We led a 12 months longitudinal study evaluating bone changes in 65 patients withT2DM for whom a therapy with GLP-1RAs had been planned. Fifty-four T2DM patients completed the 12-month study period; of them, 30 had been treated with weekly dulaglutide and 24 with weekly semaglutide. One-year therapy with GLP-1RAs resulted in a significant reduction in weight and BMI. Bone mineral density (BMD), bone metabolism, trabecular bone score (TBS), adiponectin, and myostatin were evaluated before and after 12 months of GLP-1RAs therapy. After 12 months of therapy bone turnover markers and adiponectin showed a significant increase, while myostatin values showed a modest but significant reduction. BMD-LS by DXA presented a significant reduction while the reduction in BMD-LS by REMS was not significant and TBS values showed a marginal increase. Both DXA and REMS techniques showed a modest but significant reduction in femoral BMD. In conclusion, the use of GLP-1RAs for 12 months preserves bone quality and reactivates bone turnover. Further studies are needed to confirm whether GLP-1RAs could represent a useful therapeutic option for patients with T2DM and osteoporosis.
