This study was added automatically, and its details were extracted by machine rather than read off the paper by a person. Carrie Schluter has reviewed the record, but that review did not re-extract those details, so the collection still publishes no population match, weight-loss explanation, study tier, findings, population or funding details for it: a check of automatically extracted details found too many errors to show them as fact.

Abstract

[AIMS] To investigate the effect of adding the short-acting glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) exenatide to insulin treatment on markers of cardiovascular risk in type 1 diabetes. [MATERIALS AND METHODS] In a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group trial, 108 individuals with type 1 diabetes aged ≥18 years on multiple daily injection therapy with a body mass index >22.0 kg/m2 and glycated haemoglobin concentration of 59 to 88 mmol/mol (7.5%-10.0%) were randomized (1:1) to preprandial subcutaneous injection of 10 μg exenatide (Byetta®) or placebo three times daily over 26 weeks as add-on treatment to existing insulin therapy. Reported markers of cardiovascular risk were secondary endpoints and were analyzed in a baseline-adjusted linear mixed model in the intention-to-treat population. The primary results of this study, the MAG1C (Meal-time Administration of exenatide for Glycaemic control in type 1 diabetes Cases) trial, were previously reported. [RESULTS] Exenatide changed total fat mass by -2.6 kg (95% confidence interval [CI] -3.6; -1.6; P < 0.0001) and lean body mass by -1.1 kg (95% CI -1.9; -0.4; P = 0.01) compared with placebo, as assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Fat mass reductions were similar for central and peripheral fat mass. Exenatide did not change levels of interleukin-2 or -6; tumour necrosis factor-α; C-reactive protein; N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide; or 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosine (RNA oxidation marker) and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (DNA oxidation marker). [CONCLUSIONS] Exenatide added to insulin therapy in type 1 diabetes for 26 weeks resulted in body weight loss primarily from fat mass reduction, but had no effect on biomarkers of cardiovascular disease risk.

dose: None -> '10 µg'. Q-043: manufacturer and drug_details.dose re-extracted by auto-classifier-v1.2. manufacturer no longer reads companies named only in the authors' conflicts statement (IN-062) and refuses a multi-company roster; dose is tied to the GLP-1 agent by name, never reads a concentration, and records a multi-dose design whole. Every other value is carried forward unchanged. Owner decision IN-064 option 1, 2026-11-06.
