TERN-601, a Novel Oral GLP-1R Agonist, Suppresses Food Intake and Improves Glucose Tolerance in Transgenic Mice Expressing Human GLP-1 Receptor (ADA 2023) - "In an intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (IPGTT) on overnight fasted hGLP-1R mice (n = 7 per group), single oral doses of TERN-601 (0.3, 1, and 3 mg/kg) administered 30 minutes prior to IP glucose injection significantly lowered blood glucose area under the curve (AUC0-120min) with comparable efficacy to liraglutide (0.3 mg/kg). In transgenic mice expressing human GLP-1R, single oral doses of TERN-601 significantly suppressed food intake and improved glucose tolerance. Together these data support the continued development of TERN-601."
