The following conversation has been lightly edited for clarity and grammar. “We’ve shown GLP-1s lead to more diagnoses of thyroid cancer. But they don’t lead to more cases of thyroid cancer ...
A 2010 animal study found that long-term exposure to liraglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, increased rodents’ risk of medullary thyroid cancer, the rarest form, making up 3% to 4% of all human ...
The HRs for thyroid cancer among SU and SGLT2i users were 1.32 and 1.16, respectively. In piecewise models, patients beginning GLP-1RA treatment had an HR of 1.75 and 3.30 compared to SU and ...
Of over 350,000 adults with type 2 diabetes, thyroid cancer risk was significantly higher within the first year after GLP-1 agonist initiation compared with SGLT2 inhibitors, DPP-4 inhibitors, or ...
