The metabolic effects of adding exenatide to basal insulin therapy when targeting remission in early type 2 diabetes in a randomized clinical trial

Combining a GLP-1 receptor agonist, to increase endogenous beta cell function, with exogenous insulin is a possible therapeutic option for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Here, the authors show adding exenatide to basal insulin in early type 2 diabetes does not further enhance underlying pancreati...

description Combining a GLP-1 receptor agonist, to increase endogenous beta cell function, with exogenous insulin is a possible therapeutic option for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Here, the authors show adding exenatide to basal insulin in early type 2 diabetes does not further enhance underlying pancreatic beta-cell function or the capacity to achieve diabetes remission, but may yield on-treatment glycemic benefits.
