On Friday, April 29, 2:00 – 3:00 PM EDT, we hosted a twitter chat on twincretin therapy. Catch up on the conversation via #TwincretinTakeover
This course features a podcast and accompanying journal article where experts highlight the newest research on the role of incretin actions (GIP and GLP-1) and glucagon in the pathophysiology of T2D. Experts address GIP physiology and the incretin effect beyond the individual role of GLP-1. Specifically, the synergetic role of GLP-1 and GIP and the benefits beyond glucose lowering, as well as newer therapies in development.
The intended audience for this activity is endocrinologists, especially those with specialty experience, who treat type 2 diabetes (T2D) in the United States.

Upon successful completion of these educational initiatives, participants should be better able to:

  1. Explain how incretins affect cellular function in multiple tissue types and contribute to glycemic control and other cardiometabolic effects.
  2. Compare and contrast historical research findings on GLP-1 and GIP modulation, with emphasis on a “GIP paradox” showing both pathophysiological and therapeutic potential.
  3. Define the roles of GLP-1- and GIP-targeting medications, separately or together, in T2D management using recent clinical trial data and treatment algorithms.

The Endocrine Society is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education to provide continuing medical education for physicians. Endocrine Society has achieved Accreditation with Commendation.

AMA PRA Category 1 Credit
The Endocrine Society designates each activity in this course for a maximum of 1.00 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™.

Maintenance of Certification (MOC)
Successful completion of each CME activity in this course, which includes participation in the evaluation component, enables the participant to earn up to 1.00 points in the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) Maintenance of Certification (MOC) program. Participants will earn MOC points equivalent to the amount of CME credits claimed for the activity. It is the CME activity provider's responsibility to submit participant completion information to ACCME for the purpose of granting ABIM MOC credit.
