Individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) face a high risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). The SOUL trial (NCT03914326) previously demonstrated that oral semaglutide reduced major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE).² A new post hoc secondary analysis of this trial now provides insight into the mechanisms behind this benefit, detailing the drug's association with changes in key… View more

A new study has found that the novel oral GLP-1 receptor agonist, orforglipron, demonstrated superior glycaemic control compared to oral semaglutide in adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The findings come from the ACHIEVE-3 trial, a phase 3 study published in The Lancet.¹Mechanism of ActionOrforglipron is a non-peptide glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist designed for once-daily oral… View more
