Clinical, biochemical, and molecular parameters were monitored.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>After 6 months, her HbA1c declined from 10.7 to 5.5%, fasting plasma glucose from 16.2 to 5.3 mmol/L, and body weight decreased by 18 kg. Lipid parameters improved, and molecular analysis confirmed continued CML remission (undetectable BCR-ABL1). The patient experienced only mild, transient gastrointestinal side effects.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>In this complex case, semaglutide proved safe and effective for achieving glycemic control and weight reduction without compromising CML stability. These findings suggest that GLP-1 receptor agonists may be a viable therapeutic option for patients with coexisting T2DM, severe obesity, and stable CML, warranting further investigation in broader populations.</p>","PeriodicalId":19715,"journal":{"name":"Open Medicine","volume":"20 1","pages":"20251184"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12032985/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144026640","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
