Effects of the Novel Long-Acting GLP-1 Agonist, Albiglutide, on Cardiac Function, Cardiac Metabolism, and Exercise Capacity in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure and Reduced Ejection Fraction
Open accessAbstract
Objectives This study sought to determine if glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 ameliorates myocardial metabolic abnormalities in chronic heart failure.Background Albiglutide (GSK716155) is a GLP-1 agonist indicated for type 2 diabetes.Methods We performed a randomized, placebo-controlled study evaluating 12 weeks of albiglutide in New York Heart Association II or III subjects with ejection fraction <40%. Subjects received weekly placebo (n = 30) or albiglutide 3.75 mg (n = 12), 15 mg (n = 13), or 30 mg (n = 27). The primary comparison was between albiglutide 30 mg and placebo. Assessments included echocardiography, 6-minute-walk test, and peak oxygen consumption. In a subgroup of patients, myocardial glucose and oxygen use were assessed. Endpoints are reported as change from baseline ± SE.Results Albiglutide 30 mg compared with placebo did not improve change from baseline in left ventricular ejection fraction (2.4% [1.1%] vs. 4.4% [1.1%]; p = 0.22), 6-min walk test (18 [12] m vs. 9 [11] m; p = 0.58), myocardial glucose use (p = 0.59), or oxygen use (p = 0.25). In contrast, albiglutide 30 mg versus placebo improved change from baseline in peak oxygen consumption (0.9 [0.5] ml/kg/min vs. -0.6 [0.5] ml/kg/min; p = 0.02). Albiglutide was well tolerated.Conclusions Although there was no detectable effect of albiglutide on cardiac function or myocardial glucose use, there was a modest increase in peak oxygen consumption, which could have been mediated by noncardiac effects.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
