Effect of Obicetrapib on Glycaemia and New-Onset Diabetes: Pooled Analysis of BROADWAY/BROOKLYN and an Updated Meta-analysis of Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein (CETP) Inhibitor Trials

Obicetrapib did not adversely affect glycaemia and was associated with a numerically lower risk of NoD, consistent with a CETP inhibitor class signal of a modestly lower risk. The PREVAIL trial will provide larger-longer evidence about obicetrapib and NoD.
Study context
- Population
- Participants without diabetes at baseline in the BROADWAY and BROOKLYN trialspooled BROADWAY and BROOKLYN participants without diabetes at baseline, meta-analysis of six eligible trials reporting new-onset diabetes (NoD) · normoglycaemic 899 · prediabetes 801
- Participants
- 1,700 participants
- Comparison
- Obicetrapib 10 mg or placebo; CETP inhibition in meta-analysis
- Outcome
- HbA1c
