Based on a large database of randomized, placebo‐controlled, prospective cardiovascular outcomes studies with GLP‐1 receptor agonists and DPP‐4 inhibitors, no signal for pancreatic cancer or any malignant neoplasms was detected. However, a 75% risk increase for development of an acute pancreatitis was seen in the meta‐analysis of DPP‐4 inhibitor CVOTs (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)

These results suggest that liraglutide treatment is associated with reduced total MACE compared with placebo among patients with type 2 diabetes and high risk of cardiovascular events. This analysis supports the findings of an absolute benefit of liraglutide treatment with respect to the overall burden of cardiovascular events in this high-risk patient population (JAMA Cardiology)
