Following the new data and developments presented at recent congresses, we thought it would be a good idea to recap on developmental therapeutics and their predicted role in type 2 diabetes management. This episode focuses on the once-weekly basal insulin icodec, the GIP/GLP-1 agonist tirzepatide and the novel oral antihyperglycaemic agent imeglimin.
Joining us this week to discuss these novel developments is Dr Athena Philis-Tsimikas, Corporate Vice President of the Scripps Whittier Diabetes Institute at Scripps Health and the Director of Community Engagement at Scripps Research Translational Institute in San Diego, California.
