[Meta] proposal — a flair for cagrilintide posts
proposal — a flair for cagrilintide posts, and it will stay as it is unless somebody makes the case to change it. Combination and monotherapy arms must be read separately. Efficacy and tolerability both differ substantially between them and summaries routinely blur the two. Amylin is co-secreted with insulin and acts…
Yes. The combination is where the interesting effect sizes are, and the monotherapy arms read very differently.
Correction: that is the combination programme, not the monotherapy readout. Different arms, different numbers.
Small fix — amylin analogue, not a GLP-1 analogue. The whole mechanism argument changes on that word.
How many separate lots has anyone here tested?
Not convinced. Amylin signalling is not a GLP-1 pathway and the mechanism you are proposing conflates them.
Yes.
egfr_watcher is right that the evidence base here is thin. Conclusions should be held loosely.
read the combination arms separately from the monotherapy arms
