A comparison of daily average consumption (DACON) of oxycodone and oxymorphone long-acting oral tablets.
BACKGROUND The utilization of high-potency opioids is an important component of chronic pain management, and appropriate utilization of these medicines is a common concern of payers. Two of the most commonly prescribed oral long-acting opioids, oxycodone controlled-release (CR) and oxymorphone extended-release (ER), are FDA-approved for twice-daily dosing, which equates to a theoretical average...
متن کاملEfficacy and Safety of the Once-Daily GLP-1 Receptor Agonist Lixisenatide in Monotherapy
OBJECTIVE To assess efficacy and safety of lixisenatide monotherapy in type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Randomized, double-blind, 12-week study of 361 patients not on glucose-lowering therapy (HbA(1c) 7-10%) allocated to one of four once-daily subcutaneous dose increase regimens: lixisenatide 2-step (10 μg for 1 week, 15 μg for 1 week, and then 20 μg; n = 120), lixisenatide 1-step...
متن کاملExpression and Characterization of a Potent Long-Acting GLP-1 Receptor Agonist, GLP-1-IgG2σ-Fc
Human GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) can produce a remarkable improvement in glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. However, its clinical benefits are limited by its short half-life, which is less than 2 min because of its small size and rapid enzymatic inactivation by dipeptidyl peptidase IV. We engineered GLP-1-IgG2σ-Fc, a 68-kDa fusion protein linking a variant human GLP-1 (A8G/...
متن کاملNovel GLP-1 Fusion Chimera as Potent Long Acting GLP-1 Receptor Agonist
GLP-1 has a variety of anti-diabetic effects. However, native GLP-1 is not suitable for therapy of diabetes due to its short half-life (t1/2<2 min). To circumvent this, we developed a long-lasting GLP-1 receptor agonist by the fusion of GLP-1 with human IgG2 Fc (GLP-1/hIgG2). ELISA-based receptor binding assay demonstrated that GLP-1/hIgG2 had high binding affinity to the GLP-1R in INS-1 cells ...
متن کاملGLP-1 Receptor Agonist and Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), one of the most common liver diseases, is caused by the disruption of hepatic lipid homeostasis. It is associated with insulin resistance as seen in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an incretin that increases insulin sensitivity and aids glucose metabolism. In recent in vivo and in vitro studies, GLP-1 presents a novel thera...
