ABSTRACT
Glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists are commonly used to improve glycemic control and promote weight loss in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and/or obesity. However, there is a paucity of evidence regarding GLP-1 agonist use in people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF). We present 11 people with CF (males 3, females 7; age range 24-47; BMI range 25.7-43.7) treated with GLP-1 agonists (semaglutide 9,tirzepatide 2) for variable duration (1-50 months). All experienced weight loss on GLP- 1 agonist therapy (median change in weight = -7.2 kg; change in BMI [kg/m2] = -0.9 to -8.1). Eight pwCF showed improvement in percent predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second (ppFEV1) [change = -5 to + 18] and nine pwCF showed improvement in percent predicted forced vital capacity (ppFVC) [change= +1 to + 26]. Of the 7 pwCF with CFRD, all reduced their insulin quantity (mean, 31.5 % decrease in total daily insulin dose), and glucose time in range improved for most (mean, +11 % increase from baseline). Four pwCF stopped using GLP-1 agonists 2 due to severe nausea/vomiting, 1 due to lack of perceived benefit, and 1 due to change in insurance coverage. This report is the largest published series to date of pwCF treated with GLP-1 agonist therapy. With the addition of GLP-1 agonists, all individuals experienced weight loss and a reduction in daily insulin dose, and most had improvement in pulmonary function. Future multi-center studies are needed to corroborate the efficacy and safety of these agents in the CF population.
