Efficacy and safety of once-daily oral zenagamtide, a novel unimolecular GLP-1 and amylin receptor agonist, in adults with type 2 diabetes: a multicentre, randomised, parallel, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-finding, phase 2 trial

Listen to this summary

This phase 2 trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of once-daily oral zenagamtide, a novel unimolecular GLP-1 and amylin receptor agonist, in adults with type 2 diabetes. The results demonstrated significant reductions in HbA1c levels at all tested doses (6, 25, and 50 mg) compared to placebo, with a safety profile consistent with existing GLP-1 and amylin receptor agonists.
