Tavapadon shows promise as adjunct therapy for Parkinson’s Disease in phase III trial

08 Apr 2026 by

Tavapadon, a novel, investigational, selective D1/D5 agonist with once-daily oral dosing, provides clinically meaningful and sustained benefit adjunctive to levodopa and has a favourable safety profile in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) experiencing off fluctuations, according to findings of the TEMPO-3 trial.

Weight maintenance after smoking cessation lowers fracture risk in men with T2DM

07 Apr 2026

Quitting smoking does not appear to contribute to a decrease in fracture risk in male patients newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), but maintaining weight following cessation may help, reveals a study. Moreover, weight loss after quitting tends to increase such risk.

GLP-1 RAs may deter substance addiction, SUD-related adverse outcomes

07 Apr 2026 by

Initiation of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) results in a lower risk of developing various incident substance use disorders (SUDs), suggests a study involving US veterans with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Its use also protects against adverse clinical outcome in people with pre-existing SUDs.

Safe genome-edited, immune-evasive human stem cells promising for therapeutic use

07 Apr 2026 by

Researchers from the University of Hong Kong (HKU), in collaboration with the Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Research Institute at Sinai Health in Toronto, Canada, have genetically engineered human stem cells that can ‘cloak’ themselves to evade immune rejection while carrying a built-in kill-switch to prevent tumour formation, supporting potential application of safe, off-the-shelf therapeutic cells generated in vitro for transplantation in stem cell–based regenerative therapies.
