Abstract
Diabetes mellitus, characterized by chronic hyperglycemia due to insulin deficiency or resistance, poses a significant global health burden. Central to its pathogenesis is the dysfunction or loss of pancreatic beta cells, which are res-ponsible for insulin production. Recent advances in beta-cell regeneration research offer promising strategies for diabetes treatment, aiming to restore endogenous insulin production and achieve glycemic control. This review explores the physiological basis of beta-cell function, recent scientific advan-cements, and the challenges in translating these findings into clinical applications. It highlights key developments in stem cell therapy, gene editing technologies, and the identification of novel regenerative molecules. Despite the potential, the field faces hurdles such as ensuring the safety and long-term efficacy of regen-erative therapies, ethical concerns around stem cell use, and the complexity of beta-cell differentiation and integration. The review highlights the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration, increased funding, the need for patient-centered approaches and the integration of new treatments into comprehensive care strategies to overcome these challenges. Through continued research and collaboration, beta-cell regeneration holds the potential to revolutionize diabetes care, turning a chronic condition into a manageable or even curable disease.

Abstract
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) have proven efficacy and safety in randomized clinical trials and observational real-life studies. Besides improving glucose control, reducing body weight, and lowering arterial blood pressure (surrogate endpoints), the breakthroughs were the demonstration of a significant reduction in cardiovascular and renal events in patients with type 2 diabetes at high risk. GLP-1RAs reduce events linked to atherogenic cardiovascular disease (especially ischemic stroke) and also renal outcomes (FLOW trial with semaglutide), with a limited effect on heart failure. The most striking protective effects of SGLT2is were a marked reduction in hospitalization for heart failure and a remarkable reduced progression of chronic kidney disease. These benefits have been attributed to numerous pleiotropic effects beyond glucose-lowering action. Underlying mechanisms contributing to cardiovascular and renal protection are at least partially different between GLP-1RAs (mainly anti-atherogenic and vascular effects) and SGLT2is (mainly systemic and intrarenal hemodynamic changes). Thus, patients at high risk may benefit from complementary actions when being treated with a GLP-1RA/SGLT2i combination. Such combination has proven its efficacy on surrogate endpoints. Furthermore, post hoc subgroup analyses of cardiovascular outcome trials have suggested a greater cardiorenal protection in patients treated with a combination versus either monotherapy. The benefits of a combined therapy have been confirmed in a few retrospective cohort studies. A dedicated prospective trial comparing a combined therapy versus either monotherapy is ongoing (PRECIDENTD); however, several challenges still remain, especially the higher cost of a combined therapy and the worldwide underuse of either GLP-1RAs or SGLT2is in clinical practice, even in patients at high cardiorenal risk.

Tuersun A, Hou G, Cheng G. Efficacy and safety of the combination or monotherapy with GLP-1 receptor agonists and SGLT-2 inhibitors in Type 2 diabetes mellitus: An update systematic review and meta-analysis. Am J Med Sci 2024:S0002-9629(24)01348-X. [PMID: 38977245 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjms.2024.07.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2023] [Revised: 07/03/2024] [Accepted: 07/03/2024] [Indexed: 07/10/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of combination therapy with sodium-glucose cotransporter2(SGLT-2) inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1) receptor agonists in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS To construct an exhaustive database of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) concerning SGLT-2 inhibitors and GLP-1 agonists, a methodical search was undertaken across a range of databases, such as Embase, PubMed, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, from their inception to January 2023. Following this, a meta-analysis was executed to amalgamate the collected data, which allowed for the calculation of standardized mean differences (SMDs), odds ratios (ORs), and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) for a spectrum of outcomes. This analytical approach was designed to yield a quantitative evaluation of the therapeutic efficacy and safety profile of SGLT-2 inhibitors and GLP-1 agonists for the treatment of diabetes mellitus. RESULTS When compared to GLP-1 agonist therapy alone, the combination therapy did not significantly reduce fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels (95 % confidence interval [CI]: -0.27, 0.10; p = 0.35), body weight (95 % CI: -0.18, 0.18; p = 1.00), Glycosylated Hemoglobin, Type A1C (HbA1c) (95 % CI: -0.29, 0.07; p = 0.22), or systolic blood pressure (SBP) values (95 % CI: -0.29, 0.06; p = 0.21). In contrast, when compared to SGLT-2 inhibitor therapy alone, combination therapy significantly decreased FPG by 0.24 mmol/L (95 % CI: -0.43, -0.05; p = 0.01), HbA1c by 0.45 % (95 % CI: -0.72, -0.18; p = 0.001), and SBP by 0.12 mmHg (95 % CI: -0.24, 0.00; p = 0.05). However, the combination therapy failed to demonstrate a significant reduction in body weight when compared with either SGLT-2 inhibitor therapy (95 % CI: -0.20, 0.05; p = 0.24) or GLP-1 agonist therapy (95 % CI: -0.18, 0.18; p = 1.00). Additionally, the combination therapy did not increase the incidence of hypoglycemia. It should be noted that data regarding mortality and cardiovascular outcomes were limited. CONCLUSIONS The combination treatment of SGLT-2 inhibitors and GLP-1 receptor agonists effectively reduces HbA1c, FPG, and SBP without elevating the risk of hypoglycemia when compared to monotherapy with SGLT-2 inhibitors. However, these beneficial effects were not observed when the combination therapy was compared with GLP-1 receptor agonist treatment alone.

Effect of combination treatment with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors on incidence of cardiovascular and serious renal events: population based cohort study. BMJ 2024; 385:e078242. [PMID: 38663919 PMCID: PMC11043905 DOI: 10.1136/bmj-2023-078242] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 02/29/2024] [Indexed: 04/29/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether the combined use of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors is associated with a decreased risk of major adverse cardiovascular events and serious renal events compared with either drug class alone among patients with type 2 diabetes, and to assess the effect of the combination on the individual components of major adverse cardiovascular events, heart failure, and all cause mortality. DESIGN Population based cohort study using a prevalent new-user design, emulating a trial. SETTING UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink linked to Hospital Episode Statistics Admitted Patient Care and Office for National Statistics databases. PARTICIPANTS Two prevalent new-user cohorts were assembled between January 2013 and December 2020, with follow-up until the end of March 2021. The first cohort included 6696 patients who started GLP-1 receptor agonists and added on SGLT-2 inhibitors, and the second included 8942 patients who started SGLT-2 inhibitors and added on GLP-1 receptor agonists. Combination users were matched, in a 1:1 ratio, to patients prescribed the same background drug, duration of background drug, and time conditional propensity score. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Cox proportional hazards models were fitted to estimate the hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals of major adverse cardiovascular events and serious renal events, separately, comparing the GLP-1 receptor agonist-SGLT-2 inhibitor combination with the background drug, either GLP-1 receptor agonists or SGLT-2 inhibitors, depending on the cohort. Secondary outcomes included associations with the individual components of major adverse cardiovascular events (myocardial infarction, ischaemic stroke, cardiovascular mortality), heart failure, and all cause mortality. RESULTS Compared with GLP-1 receptor agonists, the SGLT-2 inhibitor-GLP-1 receptor agonist combination was associated with a 30% lower risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (7.0 v 10.3 events per 1000 person years; hazard ratio 0.70, 95% confidence interval 0.49 to 0.99) and a 57% lower risk of serious renal events (2.0 v 4.6 events per 1000 person years; hazard ratio 0.43, 0.23 to 0.80). Compared with SGLT-2 inhibitors, the GLP-1 receptor agonist-SGLT-2 inhibitor combination was associated with a 29% lower risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (7.6 v 10.7 events per 1000 person years; hazard ratio 0.71, 0.52 to 0.98), whereas serious renal events generated a wide confidence interval (1.4 v 2.0 events per 1000 person years; hazard ratio 0.67, 0.32 to 1.41). Secondary outcomes generated similar results but with wider confidence intervals. CONCLUSIONS In this cohort study, the GLP-1 receptor agonist-SGLT-2 inhibitor combination was associated with a lower risk of major adverse cardiovascular events and serious renal events compared with either drug class alone.

Effectiveness and safety of the combination of sodium-glucose transport protein 2 inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:99. [PMID: 38500154 PMCID: PMC10949729 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02192-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2023] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/20/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Randomized controlled trials and real-world studies suggest that combination therapy with sodium-glucose transport protein 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) is associated with improvement in fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), systolic blood pressure (SBP), body mass index (BMI), and total cholesterol levels. However, a systematic review of available real-world evidence may facilitate clinical decision-making in the real-world scenario. This meta-analysis assessed the safety and effectiveness of combinations of SGLT2is + GLP-1RAs with a focus on their cardioprotective effects along with glucose-lowering ability in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in a real-world setting. METHODS Electronic searches were performed in the PubMed/MEDLINE, PROQuest, Scopus, CINAHL, and Google Scholar databases. Qualitative analyses and meta-analyses were performed using the Joanna Briggs Institute SUMARI software package and Review Manager v5.4, respectively. RESULTS The initial database search yielded 1445 articles; of these, 13 were included in this study. The analyses indicated that SGLT2is + GLP-1RAs combinations were associated with significantly lower all-cause mortality when compared with individual therapies (odds ratio [95% confidence interval [CI] 0.49 [0.41, 0.60]; p < 0.00001). Significant reductions in BMI (- 1.71 [- 2.74, - 0.67]; p = 0.001), SBP (- 6.35 [- 10.17, - 2.53]; p = 0.001), HbA1c levels (- 1.48 [- 1.75, - 1.21]; p < 0.00001), and FPG (- 2.27 [- 2.78, - 1.76]; p < 0.00001) were associated with the simultaneous administration of the combination. Changes in total cholesterol levels and differences between simultaneous and sequential combination therapies for this outcome were not significant. CONCLUSION This systematic review and meta-analysis based on real-world data suggests that the combination of SGLT2is + GLP-1RAs is associated with lower all-cause mortality and favorable improvements in cardiovascular, renal, and glycemic measurements. The findings drive a call-to-action to incorporate this combination early and simultaneously in managing T2DM patients and achieve potential cardiovascular benefits and renal protection.

Effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on cardiac function and health status in chronic heart failure: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:2. [PMID: 38172861 PMCID: PMC10765651 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-023-02042-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 10/22/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Numerous clinical studies have explored sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), with or without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and SGLT2i were proved to significantly reduce CHF hospitalization, cardiovascular death, cardiovascular mortality, all-cause mortality and myocardial infarction in patients with or without T2DM. However, only a limited few have investigated the effects of SGLT-2i on HF disease-specific health status and cardiac function. This meta-analysis aims to assess the effects of SGLT2i on disease-specific health status and cardiac function in CHF patients. METHODS A comprehensive search was conducted of trials by searching in PubMed, EMBASE, CENTRAL, Scopus, and Web of Science, and two Chinese databases (CNKI and Wanfang), Clinical Trials ( http://www. CLINICALTRIALS gov ) were also searched. RESULTS A total of 18 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving 23,953 participants were included in the meta-analysis. The effects of SGLT2 inhibitors were compared with control or placebo groups in CHF with or without T2DM. The SGLT2 inhibitors group exhibited a significant reduction in pro b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels by 136.03 pg/ml (95% confidence interval [CI]: -253.36, - 18.70; P = 0.02). Additionally, a greater proportion of patients in the SGLT2 inhibitors group showed a ≥ 20% decrease in NT-proBNP (RR = 1.45, 95% CI [0.92, 2.29], p = 0.072). However, no statistically significant difference was observed for the effects on B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP). The use of SGLT-2 inhibitors led to a noteworthy improvement in LVEF by 2.79% (95% CI [0.18, 5.39];P = 0.036). In terms of health status, as assessed by the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) and 6-minute walk distance, SGLT2 inhibitors led to a significant improvement in KCCQ clinical summary (KCCQ-CS) score (WMD = 1.7, 95% CI [1.67, 1.73], P < 0.00001), KCCQ overall summary (KCCQ-OS) score (WMD = 1.73, 95% CI [0.94, 2.52], P < 0.00001), and KCCQ total symptom (KCCQ-TS) score (WMD = 2.88, 95% CI [1.7, 4.06], P < 0.00001). Furthermore, the occurrence of KCCQ-CS and KCCQ-OS score increases ≥ 5 points had relative risks (RR) of 1.25 (95% CI [1.11, 1.42], P < 0.00001) and 1.15 (95% CI [1.09, 1.22], P < 0.00001), respectively. Overall, SGLT2 inhibitors increased the 6-minute walk distance by 23.98 m (95% CI [8.34, 39.62]; P = 0.003) compared to control/placebo from baseline. CONCLUSIONS The SGLT2 inhibitors treatment offers an effective strategy for improving NT-proBNP levels, Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire scores and 6-minute walk distance in CHF with or without T2DM. These findings indicate that SGLT2i improve cardiac function and health status in CHF with or without T2DM, and provide valuable guidance for clinicians making treatment decisions for patients with CHF.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study assessed the safety, tolerability, and PK/PD of HSK7653 tablets in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS This was a Phase IIa, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, and dose-increasing study with 48 Chinese diabetes patients. Subjects were randomly assigned to placebo and 10/25/50 mg dose groups, and they received oral administration once every two weeks for a total of six times. Safety and tolerability were assessed throughout this study, and PK/PD parameters were analyzed using non-compartment model with WinNonlin. RESULTS The three doses of HSK7653 were well tolerated, and the incidence of TEAE and ADR was not significantly increased compared with the placebo group. Cmax increased linearly with the increasing dose, and the mean t1/2 was 64.0-87.0 h. The first dose and last dose PK parameters were similar. After oral administration of 10-50 mg HSK7653 every two weeks, the average Rac_Cmax and Rac_AUC were 0.9-1.0 and 1.0-1.1 respectively; therefore, HSK7653 was not accumulated in vivo. All three doses significantly inhibited DPP-4 activity and increased plasma GLP-1 level and serum insulin levels. When the plasma concentration of HSK7653 was ≥ 20.0 ng/mL, the DPP-4 inhibition rate in all subjects was maintained at > 80.0%. In 10 and 25 mg dose groups, the HbA1c levels maintained a downward trend compared with the placebo group. DISCUSSION HSK7653 showed desirable pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties with good safety and tolerability in Chinese T2DM patients. DPP-4 inhibition rate and plasma GLP-1 levels were higher in each dose group than in placebo group.

Abstract
AIM To assess the relationship of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor analogues (GLP-1RA) and their combination (SGLT2i + GLP-1RA) with 5-year risk of all-cause mortality, hospitalization and cardiovascular/macrovascular disease in people with type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective cohort analysis of 2.2 million people with type 2 diabetes receiving insulin across 85 health care organizations using a global federated health research network. Three intervention cohorts (SGLT2i, GLP-1RA and SGLT2i + GLP-1RA) were compared against a control cohort (no SGLT2i/GLP-1RA). Propensity score matching for age, ischaemic heart disease, sex, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, heart failure and glycated haemoglobin was used to balance cohorts 1:1 (SGLT2i, n = 143 600; GLP-1RA, n = 186 841; SGLT-2i + GLP-1RA, n = 108 504). A sub-analysis comparing combination and monotherapy cohorts was also performed. RESULTS The intervention cohorts showed a reduced hazard ratio (HR, 95% confidence interval) over 5 years compared with the control cohort for all-cause mortality (SGLT2i 0.49, 0.48-0.50; GLP-1RA 0.47, 0.46-0.48; combination 0.25, 0.24-0.26), hospitalization (0.73, 0.72-0.74; 0.69, 0.68-0.69; 0.60, 0.59-0.61) and acute myocardial infarct (0.75, 0.72-0.78; 0.70, 0.68-0.73; 0.63, 0.60-0.66), respectively. All other outcomes showed a significant risk reduction in favour of the intervention cohorts. The sub-analysis showed a significant risk reduction in all-cause mortality for combination therapy versus SGLT2i (0.53, 0.50-0.55) and GLP-1RA (0.56, 0.54-0.59). CONCLUSIONS SGLT2i, GLP-1RAs or combination therapy confers mortality and cardiovascular protection in people with type 2 diabetes over 5 years. Combination therapy was associated with the greatest risk reduction in all-cause mortality versus a propensity matched control cohort. In addition, combination therapy offers a reduction in 5-year all-cause mortality when compared directly against either monotherapy.

Abstract
Obesity and diabetes are closely related metabolic disorders that have become major public health concerns worldwide. Over the past few decades, numerous studies have explored the underlying mechanisms of these disorders and identified various risk factors, including genetics, lifestyle, and dietary habits. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has been increasingly recognized for its potential to manage obesity and diabetes. Weight loss is difficult to sustain, and several diabetic therapies, such as sulfonylureas, thiazolidinediones, and insulin, might make it harder to lose weight. While lifestyle changes should be the primary approach for people interested in lowering weight, drugs are also worth investigating. Since some of the newer glucose-lowering medications that cause weight loss, such as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), are additionally utilized or are under consideration for use as anti-obesity drugs, the frontier between glucose-lowering medication and weight loss drugs appears to be shifting. This review provides an overview of the literature on the underlying mechanisms of obesity and diabetes and the prospect of TCM in their management. We discuss the various TCM interventions, including acupuncture, herbal medicine, and dietary therapy, and their effects on metabolic health. We also highlight the potential of TCM in regulating gut microbiota, reducing inflammation, and improving insulin sensitivity. The findings suggest that TCM may provide a promising approach to preventing and managing obesity and diabetes. However, further well-designed studies are needed to confirm the efficacy and safety of TCM interventions and to elucidate their underlying mechanisms of action.

Abstract
Sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and glucagon-like-peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1-R) agonists are novel therapeutic agents used for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Recently, large-scale randomized clinical trials have been conducted to assess the cardiovascular safety of these medications. The findings of these trials have revealed that both SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1-R agonists exhibit favorable cardioprotective effects, including reduction in cardiovascular and all-cause mortality, a decreased risk of chronic kidney disease progression, a decrease in hospitalization for heart failure (HF), an effect shown by SGLT2 inhibitors, and stroke prevention, an effect shown by GLP-1-R agonists. Based on the results from above studies, the European and American Diabetes Associations have issued new recommendations strongly endorsing the use of SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1-R agonists in combination with metformin for patients with T2DM who have additional cardiovascular (CV) comorbidities or risk factors. The primary aim of this combined therapy is to prevent CV events. Although both medication groups offer beneficial effects, they demonstrate slightly different profiles. SGLT2 inhibitors have exhibited better effects regarding a reduced incidence of HF, whereas GLP-1-R agonists have shown a reduced risk of CV events, particularly stroke. Moreover, recent European Society of Cardiology as well as American College of Cardiology and American Heart Association guidelines of HF treatment stressed the importance of SGLT2 inhibitor administration in patients with HF regardless of T2DM. In this context, we present and discuss the outcomes of the most recent trials investigating the impact of SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1-R agonists on renal and cardiovascular outcomes in patients, both with and without T2DM. Additionally, we explore the synergistic effects of combining SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1-R agonists in patients with cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Due to their cardiovascular protective effect, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) represent breakthrough therapies for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In this review article, we discuss the mechanistic and clinical synergies that make the combined use of GLP-1RAs and SGLT2is appealing in patients with T2DM. Overall, the presented cumulative evidence supports the benefits of GLP-1RA plus SGLT2i combination therapy on metabolic-cardiovascular-renal disease in patients with T2DM, with a low hypoglycemia risk. Accordingly, we encourage the adoption of GLP-1RA plus SGLT2i combination therapy in patients with T2DM and established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or multiple risk factors for ASCVD (i.e., age ≥ 55 years, overweight/obesity, dyslipidemia, hypertension, current tobacco use, left ventricular hypertrophy, and/or proteinuria). Regarding renal effects, the evidence of SGLT2is in preventing kidney failure is more abundant than for GLP-1RAs, which showed a beneficial effect on albuminuria but not on hard kidney endpoints. Hence, in case of persistent albuminuria and/or uncontrolled metabolic risks (i.e., inadequate glycemic control, hypertension, overweight/obesity) on SGLT2i therapy, GLP-1RAs should be considered as the preferential add-on therapy in T2DM patients with chronic kidney disease. Despite the potential clinical benefits of GLP-1RA plus SGLT2i combination therapy in patients with T2DM, several factors may delay this combination to become a common practice soon, such as reimbursement and costs associated with polypharmacy. Altogether, when administering GLP-1RA plus SGLT2i combination therapy, it is important to adopt an individualized approach to therapy taking into account individual preferences, costs and coverage, toxicity profile, consideration of kidney function and glucose-lowering efficacy, desire for weight loss, and comorbidities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin as a monotherapy glucose-lowering drug treatment for older adults with diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN & METHODS Randomized controlled trial reports were retrieved from PubMed, Embase Cochrane Library, and Web of Science from database inception to 8 May 2021. Publication bias and heterogeneity were assessed using the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool and the Cochrane Q statistic, respectively. RESULTS Compared with placebo, dapagliflozin as a monotherapy glucose-lowering drug did improve the control of glycosylated hemoglobin and fasting plasma glucose levels in older adults. Our analysis also confirmed that the body weight of older adults was well controlled under treatment of dapagliflozin as a monotherapy glucose-lowering drug. Patients in older adults with diabetes took a higher risk of genital infection and renal impairment or failure after treatment of dapagliflozin. In addition, treatment with dapagliflozin reduced the risk of hypoglycemia, and did not reveal increased risk of urinary tract infection and developing fractures compared to placebo in older adults. CONCLUSIONS Dapagliflozin as a monotherapy glucose-lowering drug appeared to be an effective treatment for older adults with diabetes, although it might increase risk of genital infection and renal impairment or failure.

Methods: Seven databases were searched until June 2021 for randomized controlled trials with a duration of at least 12 weeks, evaluating the effects of combination therapy with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists and sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors. Results: A total of eight eligible articles were included, pooling data retrieved from 1895 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Compared to monotherapy, combination therapy resulted in a greater reduction in glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), body weight, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2 h postprandial glucose (2 h PG), systolic blood pressure (SBP), body mass index (BMI) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). The decrease in HbA1c, body weight and FPG was maintained for more than 1 year, but these effects gradually regressed over time. The risk for hypoglycaemia was significantly increased with combination therapy. In addition, drug discontinuation, diarrhoea, injection-site-related events, nausea, vomiting and genital infections were more likely to occur in combination therapy. Conclusion: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist and sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitor combination therapy showed superior effects on reducing HbA1c, body weight, FPG, 2 h PG, SBP, BMI and LDL-C, without major safety issues, when compared with monotherapy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

[PMID: 34484120 PMCID: PMC8415407 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2021.706914] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2021] [Accepted: 07/26/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Sodium-glucose-cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have proven to be effective in improving glycemic control and lowering body weight in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, the efficacy and safety on weight loss in adults with overweight or obesity but not diabetes remain unclear. In this article, we aimed to identify the efficacy and safety of SGLT2 inhibitors in adults with overweight or obesity but not diabetes in randomized controlled studies (RCTs). Methods We searched for RCTs concerning SGLT2 inhibitors in adults with overweight or obesity but not diabetes in Medline (Ovid SP), Embase (Ovid SP), Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (Ovid SP), and ClinicalTrials.gov up to February 2021. The primary outcomes were changes in body weight and body mass index (BMI). Trial sequential analysis (TSA) was used to test the reliability of the primary outcomes. We analyzed the data using Review Manager 5.3 and pooled data to calculate the mean differences (MDs) or the relative risk (RR). We assessed the evidence quality of evidence of outcomes according to GRADE. Results Six randomized controlled trials involving 872 individuals were included in the meta-analysis. Compared to the placebo group, the SGLT2 inhibitors group had statistically significant reductions in absolute changes in body weight (MD: -1.42 kg, 95% CI: -1.70 to -1.14; P<0.00001) and BMI (MD: -0.47 kg/m2, 95% CI: -0.63 to -0.31; P<0.00001) in SGLT2 inhibitors group, as indicated by TSA. However, no significant benefits were observed in the SGLT2 inhibitors group in terms of waist circumference (MD: -1.34 cm, 95%CI: -2.75 to 0.07; Z=1.86, P=0.06) compared with the placebo group. The GRADE profiles indicated very low-quality evidence for body weight change and low-quality evidence for BMI change. SGLT2 inhibitors were generally safe and well tolerated. Conclusion SGLT2 inhibitors could be used in selected adults with overweight and obesity but not diabetes if they are at low risk of genital infection and urinary infection. Further studies are warranted to confirm the efficacy and safety of SGLT2 inhibitors in adults with overweight or obesity but not diabetes for long-term weight management.

Systematic review and meta-analysis for prevention of cardiovascular complications using GLP-1 receptor agonists and SGLT-2 inhibitors in obese diabetic patients. Sci Rep 2021; 11:10166.

Abstract
Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity are at high risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD). Both glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) and sodium-glucose cotransporter (SGLT-2) inhibitors have been shown to prevent CVD in T2DM patients. Additionally, the two drugs reduce body mass. However, it is unknown which drug is more effective at reducing the risk of CVD in such patients. We searched Medline, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library records to February 20, 2021 and performed a network meta-analysis to compare the efficacy with which the drugs reduced the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). We included 102,728 patients in 12 studies containing data of obesity subgroup analyses. In T2DM patients with obesity, GLP-1 RAs significantly reduced the risk of MACE versus placebo (relative risk, RR [95% confidence interval, CI]: 0.88 [0.81–0.96]), whereas SGLT-2 inhibitors showed a tendency (RR [95% CI]: 0.91 [0.83–1.00]). In an indirect comparison, GLP-1 RAs were not associated with a significant difference in MACE compared with SGLT-2 inhibitors (RR [95% CI]: 0.97 [0.85–1.09]). Thus, GLP-1 RAs are effective at preventing MACE than placebo in T2DM patients with obesity, although further studies are warranted to conclude their superiority to SGLT-2 inhibitors.

Is the stepping-down approach a better option than multiple daily injections in obese patients with poorly controlled Type 2 diabetes on advanced insulin therapy? Endocrinol Diabetes Metab 2021; 4:e00204. [PMID: 33855207 PMCID: PMC8029542 DOI: 10.1002/edm2.204] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2020] [Revised: 10/25/2020] [Accepted: 10/26/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Aim To determine whether de-escalating from advanced insulin therapy (AIT) to the combined use of metformin, an SGLT2 inhibitor, a GLP1 receptor agonist and basal insulin is the better option than multiple daily insulin injections (MDI) in obese patients with poorly controlled T2DM. Methods This was a 16-week, prospective, randomized, controlled trial. Twenty-two obese patients with T2DM on AIT were randomized to intervention (step-down) or control (MDI) group. In the intervention group, all prandial insulin injections were discontinued, but the patient remained on basal insulin and metformin, to which an SGLT2i and a GLP1 RA were added. In the control group, the patient remained on MDI. Results Compared to control group (n = 8), A1c was significantly lower at week 4 (9.54% vs 8.25%; p = .0088) and week 16 (9.7% vs 7.31%; p < .001) in intervention group (n = 10). In intervention group, compared to baseline, there was a significant decrease in weight (-16.38 pounds; p = .003), BMI (-3.06; p < .001), LDL cholesterol (-15.7 mg/dl; p = .0378), total cholesterol (-18.5 mg/dl; p = .0386), total daily insulin dose (-57.3 units; p < .001) and a significant improvement in DM-SAT patient satisfaction 0-100 scores: total score (+45.3; p < .001) and subscale scores (Convenience + 35.28, p = .019; Lifestyle + 35.8, p = .0052; Medical control + 51.3, p < .001; Wellbeing + 47.2, p = .0091) at week 16. Conclusion De-escalating from AIT to the combined use of metformin, SGLT2i, GLP1 RA and basal insulin in obese patients with poorly controlled T2DM on MDI resulted in significant improvement in glycaemic control, weight loss and significantly higher patient satisfaction. This stepping-down approach may be the better option than continuing MDI in these patients.

[PMID: 33269065 PMCID: PMC7672794 DOI: 10.4239/wjd.v11.i11.540] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2020] [Revised: 09/29/2020] [Accepted: 10/19/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The sodium/glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) and glucagon-like-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) are antidiabetic agents effective both in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) reduction (with a low risk of hypoglycemia) and cardiovascular event prevention. In patients with type 2 diabetes, the add-on value of combination therapy of GLP-1RA and an SGLT-2i seems promising.
AIM To investigate whether the efficacy of GLP-1RA and SGLT-2i combination observed in randomized controlled trials translates into therapeutic benefits in the Croatian population during routine clinical practice and follow-up.
METHODS We included 200 type 2 diabetes patients with poor glycemic control and analyzed the effects of treatment intensification with (1) GLP-1RA on top of SGLT-2i, (2) SGLT-2i on top of GLP-1RA compared to (3) simultaneous addition of both agents. The primary study endpoint was the proportion of participants with HbA1c < 7.0% and/or 5% bodyweight reduction. Secondary outcomes included changes in fasting plasma glucose (FPG), prandial plasma glucose, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and cardiovascular (CV) incidents assessment over a follow-up period of 12 mo.
RESULTS The majority of patients were over 65-years-old, had diabetes duration for more than 10 years. The initial body mass index was 39.41 ± 5.49 kg/m2 and HbA1c 8.32 ± 1.26%. Around half of the patients in all three groups achieved target HbA1c below 7%. A more pronounced decrease in the HbA1c seen with simultaneous SGLT-2i and GLP-1RA therapy was a result of higher baseline HbA1c and not the effect of initiating combination therapy. The number of patients achieving FPG below 7.0 mmol/L was significantly higher in the SGLT-2i group (P = 0.021), and 5% weight loss was dominantly achieved in the simultaneous therapy group (P = 0.044). A composite outcome (reduction of HbA1c below 7% (53 mmol/mol) with 5% weight loss) was achieved in 32.3% of total patients included in the study. Only 18.2% of patients attained composite outcome defined as HbA1c below 7% (53 mmol/mol) with 5% weight loss and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol < 2.5 mmol/L. There were no significant differences between treatment groups. No differences were observed regarding CV incidents or eGFR according to treatment group over a follow-up period.
CONCLUSION Combination therapy with GLP-1RA and SGLT-2i is effective in terms of metabolic control, although it remains to be determined whether simultaneous or sequential intensification is better.

Abstract
AIM To assess the efficacy and safety of combination therapy with a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) and a sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) in patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS We searched Medline, Embase, the Cochrane Library and grey literature sources up to 2 December 2019 for randomized controlled trials in adults with type 2 diabetes assessing the combination of GLP-1RA and SGLT2i, either as co-initiation therapy or as add-on to each other, against placebo or an active comparator. The primary outcome was change in HbA1c . Secondary outcomes included change in body weight, blood pressure and estimated glomerular filtration rate, and incidence of severe hypoglycaemia, all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke and hospitalization for heart failure. We pooled data using random effects meta-analyses. RESULTS Seven trials (1913 patients) were eligible. Compared with GLP-1RA, GLP-1RA/SGLT2i combination therapy was associated with a greater reduction in HbA1c (weighted mean difference -0.61%, 95% CI -1.09% to -0.14%, four studies), body weight (-2.59 kg, -3.68 to -1.51 kg, three studies) and systolic blood pressure (-4.13 mmHg, -7.28 to -0.99 mmHg, four studies). Compared with SGLT2i, GLP-1RA/SGLT2i combination therapy reduced HbA1c (-0.85%, -1.19% to -0.52%, six studies) and systolic blood pressure (-2.66 mmHg, -5.26 to -0.06 mmHg, six studies), but not body weight (-1.46 kg, -2.94 to 0.03 kg, five studies). After excluding data for one trial that had a considerably longer duration than the remaining studies, body weight was also reduced versus SGLT2i (-1.79 kg, -2.99 to -0.59 kg, five studies). Combination therapy did not increase the incidence of severe hypoglycaemia. Data for mortality and cardiovascular outcomes were scarce. CONCLUSIONS GLP-1RA/SGLT2i combination therapy seems to reduce HbA1c , body weight and systolic blood pressure without increasing the risk of severe hypoglycaemia compared with either GLP-1RA or SGLT2i. No conclusions can be made regarding long-term effectiveness or the effect on cardiovascular outcomes.

Abstract
In the present work, a novel series of trifluoromethyl-substituted tetrahydropyran derivatives were rationally designed and synthesized as potent DPP-4 inhibitors with significantly improved duration time of action over current commercially available DPP-4 inhibitors. The incorporation of the trifluoromethyl group on the 6-position of the tetrahydropyran ring of omarigliptin with the configuration of (2R,3S,5R,6S) not only significantly improves the overall pharmacokinetic profiles in mice but also maintains comparable DPP-4 inhibition activities. Further preclinical development of compound 2 exhibited its extraordinary efficacy in vivo and good safety profile. Clinical studies of compound 2 (Haisco HSK7653) are now ongoing in China, which revealed that inhibitor 2 could serve as an efficient candidate with a once-biweekly therapeutic regimen.
