Conclusions
•	 Treatment with exenatide QW significantly reduced
glycemic fluctuations, such as distance traveled and energy,
compared with placebo
•	 Energy spectrum analysis showed that reductions in energy
with exenatide QW were confined to slower glucose changes
rather than fast changes
•	 Among patients treated with exenatide QW, the younger
patients with the highest baseline 24-h mean glucose tended
to have the highest total energy with the higher peaks at the
lower frequencies
•	 There were more notable differences in patients who received
placebo; energy tended to increase with decreasing age and
increasing 24-h mean glucose
•	 Thus, exenatide QW substantially reduced 24-h glucose
in the overall population, but effects on 24-h glucose were
manifested differently depending on age and baseline
glucose
•	Exenatide QW numerically reduced total energy from baseline across
almost all baseline subgroups, with differences depending on age and
24-h mean glucose at baseline
•	According to the MADz analysis, exenatide QW caused greater
reductions in 24-h mean glucose profiles in patients with higher baseline
24-h mean glucose (Figure 5); conversely, energy spectrum analysis
demonstrated modest effects on the energy spectrum in patients with
high baseline 24-h mean glucose but substantial effects on the energy
spectrum in patients with lower baseline 24-h mean glucose (Figure 6)
•	Similar differential effects were observed as a function of age
•	In older patients with higher baseline 24-h mean glucose, exenatide
QW reduced overall glucose equally throughout 24 h, whereas in
younger patients with lower baseline mean 24-h glucose, exenatide
QW dampened excursions in the 24-h glucose profile, resulting in a
profile that appeared similar to profiles previously observed in individuals
without diabetes
•	Results were similar at Week 4 for energy spectrums analyzed by
baseline age and 24-h mean glucose

Methods
CGM, continuous glucose monitoring; MET XR, metformin extended release.
•	Beginning at the first lead-in visit, patients with T2D were counseled on medical
nutrition and exercise
•	Following lead-in, patients were randomized 1:1 to receive double-blind exenatide
QW 2.0 mg plus open-label metformin extended release (XR) 1500 or 2000 mg
once daily, or placebo microspheres plus metformin XR for 10 weeks
•	Glucose concentration was measured every 5 min over 7 days during the last
week of lead-in (baseline), Week 4, and Week 10 using a Dexcom G4®
CGM
system (Dexcom, San Diego, CA, USA)
Statistical Analyses
•	Efficacy and safety were assessed in the modified intent-to-treat (ITT) population,
consisting of all randomized patients who received ≥1 dose of study drug
•	CGM data were analyzed for exploratory measures of glucose fluctuation
–– Comparison of the adjusted mean 24-h glucose curves using CGM profiles at
Week 10 was based on maximum amplitude of deviation from zero (MADz).
Fourier coefficients for individual patient CGM data from each period were
derived using 24 h as the longest cycle.3
The data were then aggregated
across the whole treatment group for that period resulting in a defined group
function for each period by treatment from which changes from baseline
and treatment difference functions were derived. To control for multiplicity, a
bootstrap was performed to define the 95% confidence bounds of the MADz
by time point
Figure 1. Study Design
Introduction
•	 Although normalization of A1C for patients with type 2 diabetes
(T2D) is an important therapeutic goal, the ability of a medication
to approximate normal daily glucose excursions is also of interest
when optimizing a patient’s glucose-lowering medications,1
as large
fluctuations confer risk of hypoglycemia
•	 The glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist exenatide once weekly
(QW) improves glycemic control in a glucose-dependent manner
leading to robust reductions in A1C, weight loss, and a low risk of
hypoglycemia2
•	 This randomized controlled trial used continuous glucose monitoring
(CGM) to investigate the effects of exenatide QW compared with
placebo on 24-h glucose fluctuations in patients with T2D on
metformin therapy
•	 For this study, the objective was to examine the effects of exenatide
QW on exploratory outcomes related to daily glucose control by
analyzing the dynamics of 24-h glucose
Results
Table 1. Patient Disposition and Baseline Demographics and
Characteristics
The 60% credible interval of the mean difference, Exenatide QW – Placebo, excludes 0 if the study arm means fall outside of the tan region.
The 95% credible interval of the mean difference, Exenatide QW – Placebo, excludes 0 if the study arm means fall outside of the blue region.
The 95% credible interval of the maximum absolute difference, Exenatide QW – Placebo, excludes 0 if the study arm means fall outside of the dotted curves.
MET, metformin; QW, once weekly.

Effects of Exenatide Once Weekly on Dynamics of 24-h Glucose Patterns in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Poul Strange,1 James A. Ruggles,2 Sergey Zhuplatov,2 Michael F. Miller1 1 Integrated Medical Development, Princeton Junction, NJ, USA; 2 AstraZeneca, Fort Washington, PA, USA 1048-P Presented at the American Diabetes Association’s 76th Scientific Sessions (ADA 2016), New Orleans, LA, June 10–14, 2016.Supported by: Conclusions • Treatment with exenatide QW significantly reduced glycemic fluctuations, such as distance traveled and energy, compared with placebo • Energy spectrum analysis showed that reductions in energy with exenatide QW were confined to slower glucose changes rather than fast changes • Among patients treated with exenatide QW, the younger patients with the highest baseline 24-h mean glucose tended to have the highest total energy with the higher peaks at the lower frequencies • There were more notable differences in patients who received placebo; energy tended to increase with decreasing age and increasing 24-h mean glucose • Thus, exenatide QW substantially reduced 24-h glucose in the overall population, but effects on 24-h glucose were manifested differently depending on age and baseline glucose • Exenatide QW numerically reduced total energy from baseline across almost all baseline subgroups, with differences depending on age and 24-h mean glucose at baseline • According to the MADz analysis, exenatide QW caused greater reductions in 24-h mean glucose profiles in patients with higher baseline 24-h mean glucose (Figure 5); conversely, energy spectrum analysis demonstrated modest effects on the energy spectrum in patients with high baseline 24-h mean glucose but substantial effects on the energy spectrum in patients with lower baseline 24-h mean glucose (Figure 6) • Similar differential effects were observed as a function of age • In older patients with higher baseline 24-h mean glucose, exenatide QW reduced overall glucose equally throughout 24 h, whereas in younger patients with lower baseline mean 24-h glucose, exenatide QW dampened excursions in the 24-h glucose profile, resulting in a profile that appeared similar to profiles previously observed in individuals without diabetes • Results were similar at Week 4 for energy spectrums analyzed by baseline age and 24-h mean glucose References 1.

squared frequency times amplitude Fourier terms plotted versus frequency –– Total energy analyzed by age (45, 56, and 65 y) with baseline 24-h mean glucose (140, 182, and 220 mg/dL) • This was a Bayesian linear model analysis of the total energy together with the components of energy within the frequency domain. The linear model included study arm as well as baseline age and 24-h mean glucose. Prior distributions on the regression coefficients were chosen to be relatively flat 117 Adult Patients Age 18–75 y A1C ≥7% to ≤10% on MET XR Background diabetes treatment MET XR Randomized Treatment 10-wk intervention period Week Follow-up 0 CGM CGM CGM 4 10 4-wk lead-in period Exenatide QW 2.0 mg (n=61) Placebo (n=56) Methods CGM, continuous glucose monitoring; MET XR, metformin extended release. • Beginning at the first lead-in visit, patients with T2D were counseled on medical nutrition and exercise • Following lead-in, patients were randomized 1:1 to receive double-blind exenatide QW 2.0 mg plus open-label metformin extended release (XR) 1500 or 2000 mg once daily, or placebo microspheres plus metformin XR for 10 weeks • Glucose concentration was measured every 5 min over 7 days during the last week of lead-in (baseline), Week 4, and Week 10 using a Dexcom G4® CGM system (Dexcom, San Diego, CA, USA) Statistical Analyses • Efficacy and safety were assessed in the modified intent-to-treat (ITT) population, consisting of all randomized patients who received ≥1 dose of study drug • CGM data were analyzed for exploratory measures of glucose fluctuation –– Comparison of the adjusted mean 24-h glucose curves using CGM profiles at Week 10 was based on maximum amplitude of deviation from zero (MADz). Fourier coefficients for individual patient CGM data from each period were derived using 24 h as the longest cycle.3 The data were then aggregated across the whole treatment group for that period resulting in a defined group function for each period by treatment from which changes from baseline and treatment difference functions were derived. To control for multiplicity, a bootstrap was performed to define the 95% confidence bounds of the MADz by time point Figure 1. Study Design Introduction • Although normalization of A1C for patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) is an important therapeutic goal, the ability of a medication to approximate normal daily glucose excursions is also of interest when optimizing a patient’s glucose-lowering medications,1 as large fluctuations confer risk of hypoglycemia • The glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist exenatide once weekly (QW) improves glycemic control in a glucose-dependent manner leading to robust reductions in A1C, weight loss, and a low risk of hypoglycemia2 • This randomized controlled trial used continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) to investigate the effects of exenatide QW compared with placebo on 24-h glucose fluctuations in patients with T2D on metformin therapy • For this study, the objective was to examine the effects of exenatide QW on exploratory outcomes related to daily glucose control by analyzing the dynamics of 24-h glucose Results Table 1.
