Combined GPR40 and GPR119 full agonism with K‐757 and K‐833 results in robust glucose lowering and modest weight loss in overweight/obese subjects with T2DM

Diabetes Obes MetabPublished Randomised controlled trial

Authors' conclusion

Co-agonism of GPR40 and GPR119 with K-757 and K-833 elicits rapid, robust and glucose-dependent glucose lowering and modest weight loss in patients with T2DM on stable metformin.
