Abstract

This study provides a reference for healthcare organizations in the selection and rational use of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), based on the Rapid Guide for Drug Evaluation and Selection in Chinese Medical Institutions (Second Edition). According to the Rapid Guide for Drug Evaluation and Selection in Chinese Medical Institutions (Second Edition) released in 2023, relevant databases such as PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase, drug labels, and clinical guidelines were searched for drug information. We systematically evaluated 7 GLP-1RAs marketed in China for safety, efficacy, economy, pharmacological properties, and other attributes using a percentage scoring method. The final assessment result scores from highest to lowest were semaglutide (71.5 points), dulaglutide (68.9 points), liraglutide (68.7 points), exenatide (62.5 points), lixisenatide (59.9 points), polyethylene glycol loxenatide (55.9 points), and benaglutide (45.1 points). When a healthcare organization introduces GLP-1RAs to their hospital, they can refer to the assessment results and use the top three recommended medications: semaglutide, dulaglutide, and liraglutide.
