Abstract Long-acting dual amylin and calcitonin receptor agonists (DACRAs) are novel candidates for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity due to their beneficial effects on body weight, glucose control, and insulin action. However, how the metabolic benefits are maintained after long-lasting treatment is unknown. This study investigates the long-term anti-obesity and anti-diabetic treatment […]

Abstract OBJECTIVE Long-acting dual amylin and calcitonin receptor agonists (DACRAs) hold great promise as potential treatments for obesity and its associated comorbidities. These agents have demonstrated beneficial effects on body weight, glucose control, and insulin action mirroring the effects observed with glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonist treatment. Strategies aimed at enhancing and prolonging treatment efficacy include […]

Abstract Pharmacotherapies for obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are thought to bridge the gap between lifestyle modification and the weight loss obtained with bariatric surgery. Although the effect of monotherapies, namely amylin and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists, has shown great potential, combination therapy is now becoming a strategy to optimize efficacy for weight […]
