Abstract
AIM To conduct a post hoc subgroup analysis of patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) from the RECAP study, who were treated with sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) combination therapy, focusing only on those patients who had chronic kidney disease (CKD), to examine whether the composite renal outcome differed between those who received SGLT2 inhibitor treatment first and those who received a GLP-1RA first. METHODS We included 438 patients with CKD (GLP-1RA-first group, n = 223; SGLT2 inhibitor-first group, n = 215) from the 643 T2D patients in the RECAP study. The incidence of the composite renal outcome, defined as progression to macroalbuminuria and/or a ≥50% decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), was analysed using a propensity score (PS)-matched model. Furthermore, we calculated the win ratio for these composite renal outcomes, which were weighted in the following order: (1) both a ≥50% decrease in eGFR and progression to macroalbuminuria; (2) a decrease in eGFR of ≥50% only; and (3) progression to macroalbuminuria only. RESULTS Using the PS-matched model, 132 patients from each group were paired. The incidence of renal composite outcomes did not differ between the two groups (GLP-1RA-first group, 10%; SGLT2 inhibitor-first group, 17%; odds ratio 1.80; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.85 to 4.26; p = 0.12). The win ratio of the GLP-1RA-first group versus the SGLT2 inhibitor-first group was 1.83 (95% CI 1.71 to 1.95; p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Although the renal composite outcome did not differ between the two groups, the win ratio of the GLP-1RA-first group versus the SGLT2 inhibitor-first group was significant. These results suggest that, in GLP-1RA and SGLT2 inhibitor combination therapy, the addition of an SGLT2 inhibitor to baseline GLP-1RA treatment may lead to more favourable renal outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE Diabetic nephropathy represents the leading cause of end-stage kidney disease in developed countries. Cardiovascular outcome trials have found that in participants who received a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP1RA) and a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i), the risk of incidence and progression of diabetic nephropathy in type 2 diabetes mellitus was reduced. The aim of this study was to compare the decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) among people taking a GLP1RA with that among people taking an SGLT2i in a real-world setting. METHODS Data for 478 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who initiated therapy with a GLP1RA (n = 254) or an SGLT2i (n = 224) between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2021 were extracted. The primary outcome was any reduction ≥30% in eGFR after the start of therapy. Weight loss and drug discontinuation were also assessed. FINDINGS Over a median follow-up of 24 months, an eGFR reduction ≥30% occurred in 34 of 254 patients (13.4%) starting a GLP1RA and in 26 of 223 patients (11.6%) starting an SGLT2i (hazard ratio = 0.89; 95% CI, 0.54-1.49; P = 0.67). Median eGFR change over the whole follow-up was similar between groups (SGLT2i: median, -2 mL/min/1.73 m2; 25th, 75th percentile, -13, 8 mL/min/1.73 m2; GLP1RA: median, 0 mL/min/1.73 m2; 25th, 75th percentile, -10, 7 mL/min/1.73 m2; P = 0.54). No worsening of kidney function was observed, even when considering the ratio eGFR mean. The value of eGFR at baseline indicated a statistically significant indirect correlation with the observed absolute value of eGFR change over the follow-up (ρ = -0.36; P < 0.001). The difference in eGFR changes over time observed by eGFR categories was statistically significant (P = 0.0001) in both treatment groups. No significant differences in weight loss and drug discontinuations were observed between groups. IMPLICATIONS Although acting on different molecular mechanisms, both GLP1RA and SGLT2i might have similar effects on eGFR decline in diabetes, as suggested by the results of the present study conducted in a real-world setting.

Long-term comparison of renal and metabolic outcomes after sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor or glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist therapy in type 2 diabetes. BMC Med 2024; 22:273. [PMID: 38956548 PMCID: PMC11218058 DOI: 10.1186/s12916-024-03483-z] [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: 11/13/2023] [Accepted: 06/13/2024] [Indexed: 07/04/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Renal outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes following treatment with sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) or glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1RAs) have not been directly compared. This study compared the impact of SGLT2i and GLP1RA therapy on renal function and metabolic parameters. METHODS Patients with type 2 diabetes who initiated SGLT2i or GLP1RA therapy in a tertiary hospital between January 2009 and August 2023 were included to assess composite renal outcomes, such as a 40% decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), onset of end-stage renal disease, renal death, or new-onset macroalbuminuria. Alterations in blood pressure, glucose regulation parameters, lipid profile, and anthropometric parameters, including body fat and muscle masses, were examined over 4-years. RESULTS A total of 2,112 patients were enrolled using a one-to-three propensity-score matching approach (528 patients for GLP1RAs, 1,584 patients for SGLT2i). SGLT2i treatment was favoured over GLP1RA treatment, though not significantly, for composite renal outcomes (hazard ratio [HR], 0.63; p = 0.097). SGLT2i therapy preserved renal function effectively than GLP1RAs (decrease in eGFR, ≥ 40%; HR, 0.46; p = 0.023), with improving albuminuria regression (HR, 1.72; p = 0.036). SGLT2i therapy decreased blood pressure and body weight to a greater extent. However, more patients attained HbA1c levels < 7.0% with GLP1RAs than with SGLT2is (40.6% vs 31.4%; p < 0.001). GLP1RA therapy enhanced β-cell function and decreased LDL-cholesterol levels below baseline values. CONCLUSIONS SGLT2is were superior for preserving renal function and reducing body weight, whereas GLP1RAs were better for managing glucose dysregulation and dyslipidaemia.

Comparison of the blood pressure management between sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists. Sci Rep 2022; 12:16106. [PMID: 36167964 PMCID: PMC9515152 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-20313-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2022] [Accepted: 09/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
The cardiovascular and renal protective effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2is) and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1Ras) are enhanced by low/controlled blood pressure (BP). However, the BP-lowering efficacy of SGLT-2is and GLP-1Ras have not been compared directly. We compared the rates of achieving target BP with SGLT-2i and GLP-1Ra treatments in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This retrospective study included 384 SGLT-2i- and 160 GLP-1Ra-treated patients with BP > 130/80 mmHg before treatment. Inverse probability weighting methods using propensity scores were used in this study. The integrated odds ratios (OR) for BP control rates were calculated and clinical changes were analyzed using a generalized linear model. SGLT-2i treatment resulted in significantly higher BP control rates than that in the GLP-1Ra treatment (integrated OR = 2.09 [1.80, 2.43]). Compared with GLP-1Ra, SGLT-2i treatment demonstrated significantly larger decreases in diastolic BP, mean arterial pressure, and body weight (− 3.8 mmHg, P = 0.006; − 4.1 mmHg, P = 0.01; and − 1.5 kg, P = 0.008, respectively) and increased annual estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR; 1.5 mL/min/1.73 m2/year, P = 0.04). In T2DM patients with poorly controlled BP, compared with GLP-1Ra, SGLT-2i treatment significantly improved BP management and increased eGFR.

Kidney outcomes associated with sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors versus glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists: A real-world population-based analysis. EClinicalMedicine 2022; 50:101510. [PMID: 35784442 PMCID: PMC9241106 DOI: 10.1016/j.eclinm.2022.101510] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2022] [Revised: 05/24/2022] [Accepted: 05/25/2022] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Kidney benefits have been demonstrated for both sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1RA) compared with placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to compare the impacts of SGLT2i and GLP1RA on the trend of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and other kidney outcomes. METHODS Using a real-world population-based database, the Hong Kong Hospital Authority (HA) database, of patients with type 2 diabetes between January 2008 and December 2020, patients started on SGLT2i were compared with those started on GLP1RA, with one-to-one propensity-score matching. Primary outcome was a composite of sustained ≥50% eGFR decline, end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), incident macroalbuminuria and kidney-related mortality. Secondary outcome was the rate of eGFR decline. FINDINGS A total of 2551 SGLT2i and 2551 GLP1RA new users were analyzed. At baseline, mean age was 56·2 years, with mean eGFR 78·0 mL/min/1·73m2 and 11·9% having macroalbuminuria. Upon median follow-up of 13 months (IQR: 5-27), SGLT2i users had a lower risk of composite kidney outcomes (HR=0·77, 95%CI 0·62-0·96, p = 0·02), mainly driven by a reduction in ESKD (HR=0·53, p = 0·01). SGLT2i users also tended to have a lower risk of incident macroalbuminuria (HR=0·74, p = 0·05). Subgroup analyses of the benefits of SGLT2i use on composite kidney outcomes did not reveal interaction by age, sex, baseline eGFR/albuminuria status, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and renin-angiotensin-system inhibitor use. Furthermore, SGLT2i users had a slower eGFR decline than GLP1RA users (SGLT2i: -1·19 mL/min/1·73m2/year, GLP1RA: -1·95 mL/min/1·73m2/year, p < 0·01). INTERPRETATION Our results suggest that SGLT2i might be superior to GLP1RA in reducing kidney outcomes among patients with type 2 diabetes. Future trials are needed to corroborate our findings. FUNDING None.
