Detailed Review of Efsubaglutide Alfa's Drug Actions and Effects

Updated

Abstract

Efsubaglutide alfa has a terminal half-life of approximately 182-215 hours.

  • Prolonged exposure and low steady-state fluctuation are observed with efsubaglutide alfa.
  • Steady-state trough concentration is linked to glycaemic response, while average and peak concentrations relate to weight response and gastrointestinal tolerability.
  • Class-consistent improvements in glycaemic control and body weight have been noted, primarily in Chinese populations.
  • Gastrointestinal adverse events are the main limitation to tolerability reported.
  • Exploratory findings on dosing every 2 weeks and glycaemic durability after discontinuation warrant further investigation.
  • Current evidence primarily serves as a synthesis of clinical pharmacology rather than a comparative claim due to the lack of large, diverse datasets.
