No calcitonin change in a person taking dulaglutide diagnosed with pre-existing medullary thyroid cancer.
    Diabetic medicine : a journal of the British Diabetic Association, 2018, Volume: 35, Issue:3

    Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, such as dulaglutide, exenatide and liraglutide, are approved to treat Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Although these drugs provide substantial glycaemic control, studies in rodents have prompted concerns about the development of medullary thyroid carcinoma. These data are reflected in the US package insert, with boxed warnings and product labelling noting the occurrence of these tumours after clinically relevant exposures in rodents, and contraindicating glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist use in people with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma, or in people with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2. However, there are substantial differences between rodent and human responses to glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists. This report presents the case of a woman with pre-existing medullary thyroid carcinoma who exhibited no significant changes in serum calcitonin levels despite treatment with dulaglutide 2.0 mg for 6 months in the Assessment of Weekly AdministRation of LY2189265 [dulaglutide] in Diabetes-5 clinical study (NCT00734474).. Elevated serum calcitonin was noted in a 56-year-old woman with Type 2 diabetes mellitus at the 6-month discontinuation visit in a study of long-term dulaglutide therapy. Retroactive assessment of serum collected before study treatment yielded an elevated calcitonin level. At 3 months post-study, calcitonin level remained elevated; ultrasonography revealed multiple bilateral thyroid nodules. Eventually, medullary thyroid carcinoma was diagnosed; the woman was heterozygous positive for a germline RET proto-oncogene mutation.. The tumour was not considered stimulated by dulaglutide therapy because calcitonin remained stable throughout.

Chronic Toxicity and Carcinogenicity Studies of the Long-Acting GLP-1 Receptor Agonist Dulaglutide in Rodents.
    Endocrinology, 2015, Volume: 156, Issue:7

    The tumorigenic potential of dulaglutide was evaluated in rats and transgenic mice. Rats were injected sc twice weekly for 93 weeks with dulaglutide 0, 0.05, 0.5, 1.5, or 5 mg/kg corresponding to 0, 0.5, 7, 20, and 58 times, respectively, the maximum recommended human dose based on plasma area under the curve. Transgenic mice were dosed sc twice weekly with dulaglutide 0, 0.3, 1, or 3 mg/kg for 26 weeks. Dulaglutide effects were limited to the thyroid C-cells. In rats, diffuse C-cell hyperplasia and adenomas were statistically increased at 0.5 mg/kg or greater (P ≤ .01 at 5 mg/kg), and C-cell carcinomas were numerically increased at 5 mg/kg. Focal C-cell hyperplasia was higher compared with controls in females given 0.5, 1.5, and 5 mg/kg. In transgenic mice, no dulaglutide-related C-cell hyperplasia or neoplasia was observed at any dose; however, minimal cytoplasmic hypertrophy of C cells was observed in all dulaglutide groups. Systemic exposures decreased over time in mice, possibly due to an antidrug antibody response. In a 52-week study designed to quantitate C-cell mass and plasma calcitonin responses, rats received twice-weekly sc injections of dulaglutide 0 or 5 mg/kg. Dulaglutide increased focal C-cell hyperplasia; however, quantitative increases in C-cell mass did not occur. Consistent with the lack of morphometric changes in C-cell mass, dulaglutide did not affect the incidence of diffuse C-cell hyperplasia or basal or calcium-stimulated plasma calcitonin, suggesting that diffuse increases in C-cell mass did not occur during the initial 52 weeks of the rat carcinogenicity study.
