Years of research point to obesity and type 2 diabetes raising the risk of developing several types of cancer. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), a recent medical breakthrough, were originally developed for blood sugar control or diabetes management and also work overtime promoting weight loss. Scientists are curious to explore whether there are any links between these drugs and the onset of cancers in people with diabetes.
