The weight reduction could be achieved on DPP-IV inhibitors in very obese T2D patients

Smirnov I. , Zhuravlyova L.

Incretin-based therapy can improve glucose control in type 2 diabetes (T2D) with no weight gain. Usually dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) inhibitors considered as weight neutral and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists are associated with weight loss. Some trials showed non-remarkable weight-lowering effect on DPP-IV inhibitors. We aimed to identify patients on DPP-IV inhibitors which are likely to achieve both outcomes either good glycaemic control or weight loss.<p ...
