Cinchona-Functionalized Crown-Ether-Pinioned Calix[4]arene for a Scalable Asymmetric Organocatalytic Aza-Michael Addition Reaction. (PubMed, Org Lett) - "The catalyst could be recycled up to 25 test cycles without any significant waning in the yield and selectivity. The synthetic application of this approach to DPP-4 inhibitor drugs, such as (R)-sitagliptin and evogliptin, further demonstrates its feasibility."

Effect of anti-tuberculosis drugs on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of novel antidiabetic drugs: A scoping review. (PubMed, Pulmonology) - "RIF co-administration with gemigliptin, evogliptin and canagliflozin requires caution and potential requiring dose adjustments, while saxagliptin, dapagliflozin, ertugliflozin and empagliflozin appear safer alternatives. The limited inclusion of DM patients with TB, restricted to one study with latent TB infection, further reduces generalisability. We developed a clinical decision algorithm to support co-treatment in TB - DM cases, but further dedicated studies are warranted to guide optimal co-treatment."

Circulating biomarkers in serum from aortic valve stenosis patients predict sex-specific drug responses in valve myofibroblasts. (PubMed, bioRxiv) - "Our findings reveal a sex-specific, serum-mediated mechanism of Evogliptin resistance and highlight IGFBP2 as a candidate biomarker for stratifying female AVS patients for Evogliptin treatment. More broadly, these findings underscore the importance of incorporating sex-stratified biomarker analyses into AVS therapeutic development to improve patient-specific treatment recommendations."

Evogliptin prevents ceramide-induced pyroptosis during calcification via modulation of NLRP3/GSDM-D mediated pathway in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells. (PubMed, PLoS One) - "Furthermore, MCC950 (NLRP3 inhibitor), disulfiram (GSDM-D inhibitor) and evogliptin significantly downregulated osteogenic and pyroptotic markers including LDH release in both Pi-induced only and CER + Pi-treated VSMCs. Also, the cleavage efficiency of GSDM-D was high in Pi and CER + Pi groups which was reduced with prior treatment of evogliptin. Hence, our data demonstrate that evogliptin alleviates VC by blocking phenotypic transition and associated pyroptosis via modulation of NLRP3/GSDM-D mediated pathway in CER-induced VSMCs."

Effect of Bone Metabolism and the Efficacy of Evogliptin and Dapagliflozin for Blood Sugar in the Menopause Female Patients with Type 2 Diabetes—A Multicenter Randomized Exploratory Clinical Trial (ADA 2025) - "In postmenopausal patients with T2DM, Evogliptin demonstrated a more favorable safety profile regarding BMD compared to Dapagliflozin. Dapagliflozin resulted in small but significant reductions in BMD or T-score at non-vertebral bone, due at least in part to weight loss. These findings provide evidence for selecting appropriate antidiabetic medications in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis."

GLYCEMIC EFFECTS OF DIPEPTYL‐PEPTIDASE INHIBITOR ADDITION TO TYPE 1 DIABETES TREATMENT IN PERSONS SUBMITTED TO BARIATRIC SURGERY USING SENSOR‐AUGMENTED INSULIN PUMP OR HYBRID CLOSED‐LOOP SYSTEM (ATTD 2024) - "To improve the glucose variability possible associated to the gastric bypass it was initiated DPP4i (evogliptin)... The increase in prevalence of obesity in T1D puts bariatric surgery as an alternative,although data is scarce. Unfortunately weight loss do not seems to impact glycemic control in T1DM. The change in glucose kinetics related to RYGB with faster delivery of glucose to the jejunum causing marked hyperglycemic post-meal with subsequent rapid decreases in glycaemia may impose extra challenge to a HCLS."
