Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists (RAs) have changed the landscape of type 2 diabetes (T2D) management due to their cardio-renal benefits, their glucose-lowering efficacy and weight loss (WL) maintenance. However, the response to GLP-1 RA monotherapy is heterogeneous. Additionally, the majority of GLP-1 RAs are injectable treatments. Oral GLP-1 RAs and injectable combinations of GLP-1 with other entero-pancreatic hormones (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), glucagon and amylin) are under development for T2D and obesity management.
