Two new trials in The Lancet put the first credible oral, non-peptide GLP-1 drugs on the runway — a shift that could change who actually gets access to this class.
A once-daily oral GLP-1, fresh data linking the class to lower lumbar disease risk, and a network meta-analysis hinting at a nuanced colorectal cancer question. Here's what the moderate evidence actually says.

A 26-week Phase 2 trial pits a once-daily oral non-peptide against dulaglutide — and the β-cell and insulin-sensitivity signals are hard to ignore.
