    Abstract The methionine aminopeptidase 2 (MetAP2) inhibitor ZGN-1061 lowered weight and improved glucose in preclinical studies. We sought to determine its efficacy and safety by performing a multicentre, phase 2, randomized controlled trial involving overweight and obese adults with type 2 diabetes and HbA1c between 7% and 11% inclusive. Participants were randomized to receive subcutaneous treatment with placebo or 0.05, 0.3, 0.9 or 1.8 mg ZGN-1061 every third day for 12 weeks. The primary outcome was change in HbA1c at week 12. Relative to placebo, the 0.9 and 1.8 mg doses induced clinically meaningful reductions in HbA1c of 0.6% (95% CI 0.2% to 0.9%; P = 0.0006) and 1.0% (95% CI 0.6% to 1.4%; P < 0.0001), respectively. The 1.8 mg dose also induced weight loss of 2.2% (95% CI 1.1% to 3.3%; P = 0.0002). The incidence of adverse events was balanced across the treatment groups. We conclude that MetAP2 inhibition with ZGN-1061 for 12 weeks improved glucose control and aided weight loss in overweight and obese people with type 2 diabetes. However, given safety issues, Zafgen has discontinued MetAP2 inhibitor development.

    Abstract We aimed to describe the glycaemic trajectory and define characteristics associated with suboptimal glycaemic control in the type 2 diabetes clinic. Higher glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) at 1 year was associated with higher baseline HbA1c, concurrent anti-depressant or antipsychotic medication, higher bodyweight and low treatment adherence. These characteristics may help identify patients unlikely to attain HbA1c treatment targets and be better served by a different model of care.

    Abstract Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is well-recognised as a continuum heralded by the development of islet autoantibodies, progression to islet autoimmunity causing beta cell destruction, culminating in insulin deficiency and clinical disease.

    Abstract Background: In 2019, the Louisiana Department of Health reported an early influenza B/Victoria (B/VIC) virus outbreak.
    Method: As it was an atypically large outbreak, we deployed to Louisiana to investigate it using genomics and a triplex real-time RT-PCR assay to detect three antigenically distinct B/VIC lineage variant viruses.
    Results: The investigation indicated that B/VIC V1A.3 subclade, containing a three amino acid deletion in the hemagglutinin and known to be antigenically distinct to the B/Colorado/06/2017 vaccine virus, was the most prevalent circulating virus within the specimens evaluated (86/88 in real-time RT-PCR).
    Conclusion: This work underscores the value of portable platforms for rapid, onsite pathogen characterization.

    Abstract Aim: Randomized trials reporting 5-year outcomes have shown bariatric surgery  to induce diabetes remission and improve cardiovascular risk. However, the longer-term effects of surgery are uncertain, with only one randomized trial reporting 10-year diabetes outcomes in people with obesity. We aimed to compare 10-year diabetes outcomes of people who are overweight but not obese, randomly assigned to receive either multidisciplinary diabetes care, or multidisciplinary diabetes care combined with gastric band (GB) surgery.
    Methods: Between 2009 and 2011, 51 adults were randomized. After 5 years, they were discharged to receive community care and reassessed after 10 years. The primary outcome was diabetes remission, defined as glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) <6.5% (48 mmol/mol) without glucose-lowering medication.
    Results: Forty-one participants (20 medical and 21 GB) completed the 10-year assessment. The median (Q1, Q3) weight loss in the GB group was 9.8 (6.7, 16.3)% at 10 years compared with 5.6 (3.4, 7.6)% in the medical group (median difference 4.2%; p = .008). Diabetes remission occurred in five GB participants and no medical participants (relative risk 0.76, 95% CI: 0.55-0.93, p = .048). GB participants used fewer glucose-lowering medications at 10 years but HbA1c, fasting glucose, calculated cardiovascular risk, quality-of-life and incident diabetes complications did not differ significantly between the groups.
    Conclusion: When compared with medical care, GB surgery achieved greater weight loss and modestly increased the likelihood of diabetes remission. However, it did not improve HbA1c, cardiovascular risk or quality of life.

    Abstract Introduction: Sodium-glucose linked transporter (SGLT) inhibitors could improve glycaemia and simplify insulin regimens in recent-onset type 1 diabetes (T1D), provided they were well-tolerated and safe. This study aimed to determine the feasibility and safety of a SGLT inhibitor for the treatment of recent-onset T1D.
    Method: An open label, prospective pilot study in adults with recent-onset T1D was performed. Empagliflozin, 25 mg orally daily, was given in combination with insulin and multidisciplinary care during a 24-week treatment phase, followed by wash-out visits at weeks 30 and 36.
    Results: Fourteen participants (4 women; median age 26 years) began and 13 completed the study. No treatment-emergent serious adverse events were observed, with fatigue and genital infection the most common side-effects. Four participants stopped mealtime insulin for at least one month when taking empagliflozin. At week 24, median weight, HbA1c and insulin dose decreased by 4.4 kg, 1.5% (17 mmol/mol) and 0.03 units/kg/day, respectively. Meal-stimulated C-peptide was maintained during the treatment phase and then decreased at 36 weeks.
    Conclusions: Treatment of adults with empagliflozin within 100 days of T1D diagnosis appeared safe and was associated with improved clinical outcomes. These findings justify a definitive trial to determine if SGLT inhibitors simplify treatment regimens and improve clinical outcomes in recent-onset T1D.

    Abstract Iron’s role in diabetes pathophysiology is underrecognised. Authors describe three cases (two females and one male) with evidence of ‘ferro-immune’ hybrid diabetes, HFE C282Y homozygosity with islet autoimmunity. Case one describes iron overload followed by classical autoimmune diabetes. A 20-year-old female presented with non transfusion-dependent hereditary spherocytosis, contributing to hepatic iron overload. At the age of 26 years, the patient presented with diabetic ketoacidosis and elevated Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase (GAD) (50.5 U/mL) and Islet Antigen 2 (IA-2) (>4,000 U/mL) autoantibodies, and commenced insulin therapy. Two months after her diabetes diagnosis, she began iron chelation therapy. Case two describes haemochromatosis followed by adultonset diabetes. A fit 78-year-old woman was diagnosed with haemochromatosis at the age of 58 years and presumed to have Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) at the age of 66 years. However, subsequent testing revealed GAD autoantibody positivity (24 U/mL) with normal C-peptide levels (0.55 nmol/L). Her diabetes was diet-controlled, and her transferrin saturation normalised while GAD seropositivity resolved spontaneously. Case three describes slowly-progressive autoimmune diabetes preceding haemochromatosis. A lean man was diagnosed with latent autoimmune diabetes in adulthood with elevated GAD autoantibodies (11 U/mL). At the age of 81 years, he was diagnosed with haemochromatosis (transferrin saturation 61%), which was followed by a decline in glycaemic control (HbA1c 8.3% to 9.0%). A paired fasting glucose (10.8 mmol/L) and C-peptide (0.15 nmol/L) indicated insulin deficiency, and he remains dependent on insulin therapy. Reducing iron levels through venesection or iron chelation may help decrease islet inflammation and potentially, autoimmunity. A family history of haemochromatosis or an atypical diabetes presentation should prompt an investigation into iron status. Additionally, a low C-peptide level in the presence of haemochromatosis should prompt an investigation into ...
