Prim Care Diabetes 2024; 18:17-24. [PMID: 37980217 DOI: 10.1016/j.pcd.2023.10.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2023] [Revised: 10/08/2023] [Accepted: 10/22/2023] [Indexed: 11/20/2023]
Abstract
AIMS Sodium glucose cotransporter2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are controversial in the treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). This study is a systematic evaluation of the safety of SGLT2 inhibitors usage in T1DM. METHODS Comprehensive literature search in six databases from inception to September 2022. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of T1DM treated with SGLT2 inhibitor vs. placebo were included. Data were extracted from the literature that met the inclusion criteria. After quality evaluation by the Cochrane risk bias assessment tool, meta-analysis was performed using Revman 5.4 and Stata 17.1. RESULTS The study consisted of 16 RCTs with 7192 patients. The results indicated that SGLT2inhibitors reduce glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c, Mean difference (MD)- 0.29%, P < 0.05), fasting plasma glucose (FPG, MD-0.85 mmol/L, P < 0.05), mean amplitude of glucose excursions (MAGE, 15.75 mg/dL, P < 0.05), body weight (MD-3.49 kg, P < 0.05), and total insulin dosage (MD-7.14 IU/day, P < 0.05). Furthermore, cautious SGLT2 inhibitors did not induce the risk of hypoglycemia (RR1.00, P = 0.86), urinary tract infections (RR1.02, P = 0.085), and diarrhea (RR1.34, P = 0.523). CONCLUSION Based on this meta-analysis, SGLT22 inhibitors reduce insulin dosage without increasing the risk of hypoglycemia and diabetic ketoacidosis for type 1 diabetes mellitus in 1month.

Bantounou MA, Sardellis P, Thuemmler R, Black Boada D, Kaczmarek J, Mahmood R, Plascevic J, Philip S. Effect of the dual sodium-glucose co-transporter-1 and -2 inhibitor sotagliflozin on renal outcomes in type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Diabetes Obes Metab 2024; 26:710-720. [PMID: 38031239 DOI: 10.1111/dom.15364] [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: 07/30/2023] [Revised: 10/12/2023] [Accepted: 10/26/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023]
Abstract
AIM To investigate the renal safety profile of sotagliflozin, a novel sodium-glucose co-transporter-1 and -2 inhibitor, in patients with type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes, with or without renal impairment, as well as its efficacy in decreasing the risk of further renal events, with an emphasis on those with previous renal impairment. METHODS Embase, Medline, CENTRAL and Scopus were searched from their inception until 24 April 2023 for randomized controlled trials that reported estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), urinary albumin excretion or composite renal events (CRE). The Cochrane risk of bias 2 tool was used. Mean difference, relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence intervals were estimated (PROSPERO: CRD42023425583). RESULTS Fourteen studies were included in this review (n = 17 574 participants; intervention n = 9312, control n = 8262). The median follow-up was 24.5 (Q1 = 15.25, Q3 = 28) months. Four studies recruited participants with renal impairment; baseline eGFR ranged from 23.8 to 50.5 mL/min/1.73m2 . The change in eGFR for studies (n = 6) with a follow-up of 52 weeks or longer was -1.23 (-1.45, -1.01) mL/min/1.73m2 . Sotagliflozin did not significantly alter urinary albumin excretion. No change was observed in the risk of CRE (n = 6 studies; RR = 0.82 [0.61, 1.12]), including in participants with renal impairment. High risk of bias was a limitation of this review. CONCLUSIONS Sotagliflozin did not adversely affect renal function or change the risk of key renal outcomes, including for participants with pre-existing renal impairment. Therefore, sotagliflozin was safe; however, further research is needed to determine its efficacy in reducing the risk of diabetic kidney disease.

Abstract
SGLT2i (sodium glucose transporter type 2 inhibitors) are pharmacological agents that act by inhibiting the SGLT2, by reducing the renal plasma glucose threshold and inducing glycosuria, resulting in a blood glucose lowering effect. In recent years, studies demonstrating some additional positive effects of SGLT2i also in the treatment of T1D have increased progressively. The SGLT2i dapagliflozin and sotagliflozin have been temporarily licensed for use by the European Medical Agency (EMA) as an adjunct to insulin therapy in adults with T1D with a body mass index of 27 kg/m2 or higher. However, in the meantime, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Endocrinologic and Metabolic Drugs Advisory Committee was divided, citing concerns about the main side effects of SGLT2i, especially diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). The aim of this manuscript was to conduct an update on current evidence and recommendations of the reported use of SGLT2i in the treatment of T1D in humans. Preclinical studies, clinical trial and real world data suggest benefits in glycaemia control and nefro-cardiovascular protection, even though several studies have documented an important increase in the risk of DKA, a serious and life-threatening adverse event of these agents. SGLT2i potentially addresses some of the unmet needs associated with T1D by improving glycaemic control with weight loss and without increasing hypoglycemia, by reducing glycaemic variability. However, due to side effects, EMA recommendation for SGLT2 use on T1D was withdrawn. Further studies will be needed to determine the safety of this therapy in T1D and to define the type of patient who can benefit most from these medications.

J Diabetes Metab Disord 2023; 22:673-701. [PMID: 37255836 PMCID: PMC10225433 DOI: 10.1007/s40200-023-01192-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2022] [Accepted: 01/26/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
Background The treatment duration of insulin-sodium-glucose co-transporter inhibitors (SGLTis) co-treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) patients in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) varies by 1-52 weeks. Henceforth, treatment duration-wise, we compared the following insulin-treatment adjuncts- mega- versus low-dose SGLTis, SGLTis versus placebo, and different SGLTi dosages. Method Double-blinded RCTs reporting the above were searched (using terms like insulin-dependent, "juvenile-onset diabetes," and "sodium glucose cotransport*") in the PubMed, Embase, and Scopus databases and appraised using a Cochrane tool. The risks across different SGLTi-dosages were compared using network meta-analysis. Random-effect pairwise meta-analysis was performed for the remaining harm juxtapositions. Meta-analyses were performed for the following treatment durations- < 4 weeks, 4 to < 24 weeks, and ≥ 24 weeks. For meta-analysis and certainty of evidence assessment, we used the Stata statistical software and the GRADE method, respectively. Results A total of 15 (low risks of bias) studies sourcing data from about 7,330 T1DM patients were reviewed. Meta-analysis findings of ≥ 24 weeks long trials were- a. SGLTi-insulin co-treatment increased the genital infection (GI) (RR: 3.51; 95% CI: 2.59, 4.77), diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and (RR: 3.25; 95% CI:1.29, 8.16), and serious side effects (RR: 1.43; 95% CI: 1.05, 1.94) risk. b. SGLT2i-insulin increased the GI risk (RR: 3.77; 95% CI: 2.31, 6.16; high-quality evidence). c. Sotagliflozin-insulin increased the GI (RR: 3.36; 95% CI: 2.28, 4.96) and DKA (RR: 6.69; 95% CI: 2.75, 16.32) risk (both high-quality evidence). Compared to low-dose, megadose SGLTi treatment for 4 to < 24 weeks increased the GI risk. The remaining analyses were not statistically significantly different. Conclusion On moderate to long-term treatment (24-52 weeks) of T1DM patients, insulin-SGLT2i co-treatment was associated with GI risk, and insulin-sotagliflozin co-treatment was associated with DKA and GI risk.

Glucose-Lowering Therapy beyond Insulin in Type 1 Diabetes: A Narrative Review on Existing Evidence from Randomized Controlled Trials and Clinical Perspective. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14061180. [PMID: 35745754 PMCID: PMC9229408 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14061180] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2022] [Revised: 05/18/2022] [Accepted: 05/30/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: In Type 1 diabetes (T1D), according to the most recent guidelines, the everyday glucose-lowering treatment is still restricted to the use of subcutaneous insulin, while multiple therapeutic options exist for Type 2 diabetes (T2D). Methods: For this narrative review we unsystematically screened PubMed and Embase to identify clinical trials which investigated glucose-lowering agents as an adjunct to insulin treatment in people with T1D. Published studies up to March 2022 were included. We discuss the safety and efficacy in modifying cardiovascular risk factors for each drug, the current status of research, and provide a clinical perspective. Results: For several adjunct agents, in T1D, the scientific evidence demonstrates improvements in HbA1c, reductions in the risk of hypoglycemia, and achievements of lower insulin requirements, as well as positive effects on cardiovascular risk factors, such as blood lipids, blood pressure, and weight. As the prevalence of obesity, the major driver for double diabetes, is rising, weight and cardiovascular risk factor management is becoming increasingly important in people with T1D. Conclusions: Adjunct glucose-lowering agents, intended to be used in T2D, bear the potential to beneficially impact on cardiovascular risk factors when investigated in the T1D population and are suggested to be more extensively considered as potentially disease-modifying drugs in the future and should be investigated for hard cardiovascular endpoints.

Abstract
Insulin resistance (IR) is insulin failure in normal plasma levels to adequately stimulate glucose uptake by the peripheral tissues. IR is becoming more common in children and adolescents than before. There is a strong association between obesity in children and adolescents, IR, and the metabolic syndrome components. IR shows marked variation among different races, crucial to understanding the possible cardiovascular risk, specifically in high-risk races or ethnic groups. Genetic causes of IR include insulin receptor mutations, mutations that stimulate autoantibody production against insulin receptors, or mutations that induce the formation of abnormal glucose transporter 4 molecules or plasma cell membrane glycoprotein-1 molecules; all induce abnormal energy pathways and end with the development of IR. The parallel increase of IR syndrome with the dramatic increase in the rate of obesity among children in the last few decades indicates the importance of environmental factors in increasing the rate of IR. Most patients with IR do not develop diabetes mellitus (DM) type-II. However, IR is a crucial risk factor to develop DM type-II in children. Diagnostic standards for IR in children are not yet established due to various causes. Direct measures of insulin sensitivity include the hyperinsulinemia euglycemic glucose clamp and the insulin-suppression test. Minimal model analysis of frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test and oral glucose tolerance test provide an indirect estimate of metabolic insulin sensitivity/resistance. The main aim of the treatment of IR in children is to prevent the progression of compensated IR to decompensated IR, enhance insulin sensitivity, and treat possible complications. There are three main lines for treatment: Lifestyle and behavior modification, pharmacotherapy, and surgery. This review will discuss the magnitude, implications, diagnosis, and treatment of IR in children.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2022; 13:968478. [PMID: 36225203 PMCID: PMC9548998 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2022.968478] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2022] [Accepted: 09/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a global health problem, and it has become a shocking threat in the contemporary era. The objective of this study was to analyze the safety of sotagliflozin in patients with DM systematically and intuitively. METHODS On November 15, 2021, literature retrieval was performed on PubMed, Web of Science, EBSCO, and Cochrane libraries. The meta-analysis results included genital mycotic infection, related-to-acidosis events, and other related adverse events, including diarrhea, severe nocturnal hypoglycemia event, and volume depletion. In addition, a subgroup analysis was also conducted based on different doses of sotagliflozin. Moreover, the patient-treated years analyzed in the study were 12 weeks, 24 weeks, and 52 weeks, respectively, for type 1 diabetes, and were 12 weeks, 22 weeks, and 52 weeks, respectively, for type 2 diabetes. RESULTS The results of this meta-analysis illustrated that sotagliflozin could increase the risk of genital mycotic infection for patients with T1D and T2D (RR: 3.49, 95% Cl: 2.54-4.79, p < 0.001; RR: 2.83, 95% Cl: 2.04-3.93, p < 0.001; respectively). In addition, the subgroup analysis showed that the drug doses that could increase the risk of genital mycotic infection were 400 mg and 200 mg (RR: 3.63, 95% Cl: 2.46-5.36, p < 0.001; RR: 3.21, 95% Cl: 1.84-5.62, p < 0.001; respectively) in T1D. Moreover, sotagliflozin could increase the risk of events related to acidosis in the patients of T1D, including acidosis-related adverse events, positively adjudicated diabetic ketoacidosis, acidosis-related event, and diabetic ketoacidosis (RR: 7.49, 95% Cl: 3.20-17.52, p < 0.001; RR: 6.05, 95% Cl: 2.56-14.30, p < 0.001; RR: 4.83, 95% Cl: 3.13-7.45, p < 0.001; RR: 8.12, 95% Cl: 3.06-21.52, p < 0.001; respectively). In the patients of T2D, sotagliflozin could not increase the risk of DKA (RR: 1.30, 95% Cl: 0.34-4.99, p = 0.70). About serious of acidosis-related adverse events, positively adjudicated diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and acidosis-related event, the included studies were not reported for T2D patients. As for the other related adverse events, sotagliflozin was found to be a risk factor for diarrhea and volume depletion in T1D patients (RR: 1.44, 95% Cl: 1.09-1.90, p = 0.01; RR: 2.50, 95% Cl: 1.33-4.69, p < 0.01; respectively) and T2D patients (RR: 1.44, 95% Cl: 1.26-1.64, p < 0.001; RR: 1.25, 95% Cl: 1.07-1.45, p < 0.01; respectively). CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis showed that the adverse events of sotagliflozin were tolerable to patients with DM, in terms of the incidence of genital mycotic infection, related-to-acidosis events, diarrhea, volume depletion, and severe nocturnal hypoglycemia events. In addition, the subgroup analysis of sotagliflozin dosage is considered to have great clinical significance for future guidance of sotagliflozin application in patients with DM.

High-dose Vitamin D Supplementation on Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus Patients: Is there an Improvement in Glycemic Control? Curr Diabetes Rev 2022; 18:e010521189964. [PMID: 33413064 DOI: 10.2174/1573399817666210106102643] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2020] [Revised: 11/04/2020] [Accepted: 11/16/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Some authors evaluated the effect of VD on hyperglycemia in T1DM, but the results remain controversial. This study aims to analyze the effects of high-dose VD supplementation on T1DM patients' glycemic levels, maintaining stable doses of insulin. METHODS Prospective, 12-week clinical trial including 67 T1DM patients, supplemented with high doses of cholecalciferol according to participants' VD value. Patients with VD levels below 30 ng/mL received 10,000 IU/day; those with levels between 30-60 ng/mL received 4,000 IU/day. Patients who had not achieved 25(OH)D levels > 30 ng/ml or presented insulin dose variation during the study were not analyzed. RESULTS Only 46 out of 67 patients accomplished the criteria at the end of the study. There was no general improvement in the glycemic control evaluated by HbA1c (9.4 ± 2.4 vs 9.4 ± 2.6, p=NS) after VD supplementation. However, a post-hoc analysis, based on HbA1c variation, identified patients who had HbA1c reduced at least 0.6% (group 1, N = 13 (28%)). In addition, a correlation between 25(OH)D levels with HbA1c and total insulin dose at the end of the study was observed (r = -0.3, p<0.05; r=-0.4, p<0.05, respectively), and a regression model demonstrated that 25(OH)D was independent of BMI, duration of T1DM and final total insulin dose, being capable of determining 9.2% of HbA1c final levels (Unstandardized B coefficient = -0.033 (CI 95%: -0.064 to -0.002), r2 = 0.1, p <0.05). CONCLUSION Our data suggest that VD is not widely recommended for glycemic control. Nevertheless, specific patients might benefit from this approach.

Abstract
As closed-loop insulin therapies emerge into clinical practice and evolve in medical research for type 1 diabetes (T1D) treatment, the limitations in these therapies become more evident. These gaps include unachieved target levels of glycated hemoglobin in some patients, postprandial hyperglycemia, the ongoing need for carbohydrate counting, and the lack of non-glycemic benefits (such as prevention of metabolic syndrome and complications). Multiple adjunct therapies have been examined to improve closed-loop systems, yet none have become a staple. Sodium-glucose-linked cotransporter inhibitors (SGLTi's) have been extensively researched in T1D, with average reductions in placebo-adjusted HbA1c by 0.39%, and total daily dose by approximately 10%. Unfortunately, many trials revealed an increased risk of diabetic ketoacidosis, as high as 5 times the relative risk compared to placebo. This narrative review discusses the proven benefits and risks of SGLTi in patients with T1D with routine therapy, what has been studied thus far in closed-loop therapy in combination with SGLTi, the potential benefits of SGLTi use to closed-loop systems, and what is required going forward to improve the benefit to risk ratio in these insulin systems.

[PMID: 33651228 PMCID: PMC8187227 DOI: 10.1007/s00592-021-01686-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2020] [Accepted: 02/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
AIMS The aim was to systematically review the efficacy and safety of sodium-glucose cotransporter inhibitor (SGLT2i) as an adjunct to insulin at different follow-up durations in randomized, double-blind clinical trials in patients with type 1 diabetes. METHODS We conducted a search on Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Library for relevant studies published before May 2020. According to the duration of follow-up, the subgroup analysis included four periods: 1-4, 12-18, 24-26, and 52 weeks. In the five trials included both 24-26 and 52 weeks of follow-up, we compared the efficacy by the placebo-subtracted difference and changes in SGLT2i groups. RESULTS Fifteen trials including 7109 participants were analyzed. The combination of SGLT2i and insulin improved hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), daily insulin dose, body weight, and blood pressure, which varied greatly by different follow-ups. Compared with %HbA1c at 24-26 weeks, placebo-subtracted differences and changes in the SGLT2i groups slightly increased. SGLT2i plus insulin treatment showed no difference in the occurrence of urinary tract infections (UTIs), hypoglycemia, or severe hypoglycemia but increased the risk of genital tract infections (GTIs) in a duration-dependent manner. SGLT2i treatment was associated with a significantly higher rate of ketone-related SAEs and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) at 52 weeks. CONCLUSION SGLT2i as an add-on therapy to insulin improved glycemic control and body weight and decreased the required dose of insulin without increasing the risk of hypoglycemia. However, after 6 months the benefits of SGLT2is on glycemic control may weaken and the risks of GTIs and DKA increased.

Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION Several clinical trials reported the effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter (SGLT) inhibitors in type 1 diabetes patients. This meta-analysis aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of SGLT inhibitors in type 1 diabetes patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Relevant studies were identified in the PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and Wan Fang databases through 1 April 2020. Differences were expressed as the 95% confidence interval (CI) or weighted mean difference (WMD) for continuous outcomes, and risk ratio (RR) for discontinuous outcomes. RESULTS A total of 13 RCTs with 7,962 cases were included. SGLT inhibitors reduced the fasting plasma glucose level (WMD -1.320 mmol/L, 95% CI -1.609 to -1.031, P < 0.001), glycated hemoglobin level (WMD -0.386%, 95% CI -0.431 to -0.342, P < 0.001) and daily total insulin dose (WMD -5.403, 95% CI -7.218 to -3.859, P < 0.001). However, higher risks of diabetic ketoacidosis (RR 5.042, 95% CI 3.160-8.046, P < 0.001), urinary tract infections (RR 1.259, 95% CI 1.034-1.533,P = 0.022) and genital infections (RR 2.995, 95% CI 1.953-4.594, P < 0.001) were associated with SGLT inhibitors, but SGLT inhibitors did not increase the hypoglycemia risk (RR 0.980, 95% CI 0.840-1.144,P = 0.799). In subgroup analysis, with a significant reduction of fasting plasma glucose, glycated hemoglobin and daily insulin doses, SGLT1/2 inhibitor did not increase genitourinary tract infections compared with a placebo. CONCLUSIONS SGLT2 and SGLT1/2 inhibitors can improve glycemic control in patients with type 1 diabetes.

Abstract
Sodium glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) is a sodium-dependent glucose transporter responsible for renal absorption of glucose. Dapagliflozin is an SGLT2 inhibitor used in patients with type 1 diabetes to promote urinary glucose excretion, but to date, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate the effect of this drug in this disease have not been systematically evaluated. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin, as an adjuvant therapy to insulin, in the treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus through a systematic review and meta-analysis. The Cochrane Library Database, Medline and Embase databases were used to search articles published between January 1st 2004 and February 5th 2020 with no language restrictions relating to RCTs. After extracting the data, the quality of the RCTs was evaluated and the data were statistically analyzed. A total of 4 RCTs with 1,691 participants were included. Dapagliflozin resulted in decreased glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (0.40-0.45%), body weight (2.52-3.85 kg), mean daily glucose (0.76-0.99 mmol/l) and mean amplitude of glucose excursion (0.54-1.07 mmol/l; all with P<0.00001) compared to placebo. Subgroup analysis by dose indicated no significant difference in all efficacy outcome indicators between dapagliflozin at 5 and at 10 mg (P>0.1). Compared with placebo, the use of dapagliflozin in patients with type 1 diabetes increased the risk of adverse events and serious adverse events (P<0.05), but did not increase the risks of infection, diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and discontinuation due to adverse events. Analysis by dose group suggested that no significant difference in all safety outcome indicators between dapagliflozin at 5 and at 10 mg (P>0.1). In conclusion, dapagliflozin had a significant effect on type 1 diabetes. However, the use of dapagliflozin significantly increased the incidence of adverse events and serious adverse events compared with placebo. Dapagliflozin-assisted short-term (24 weeks) insulin therapy for type 1 diabetes did not increase the risk of DKA but additional high-quality studies are required to determine its long-term efficacy and safety.

Abstract
Background: Young adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) tend to have higher A1C than older adults and are at increased risk for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Oral adjuncts to insulin have not been previously studied in this population. Methods: In this phase 2, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study, adults aged 18-30 years with T1D and A1C ≥9.0% were randomly assigned to placebo (n = 42) or sotagliflozin 400 mg (n = 43), in addition to insulin for 12 weeks. Insulin doses were adjusted to meet glucose targets (preprandial 80-130 mg/dL, postprandial <180 mg/dL). The primary endpoint was change from baseline in A1C at week 12. Results: From a baseline of 9.8%, mean A1C decreased by 1.0% with placebo and 1.3% with sotagliflozin (-0.4% [95% confidence interval (CI): -0.8 to 0.1]; P = 0.10 vs. placebo). In the prespecified A1C ≤10.0% subgroup, the treatment difference was -0.8% (-1.3 to -0.2; P = 0.006), favoring sotagliflozin. Overall, relative to placebo, postprandial glucose (PPG) decreased by 56.6 mg/dL (-89.7 to -23.6; P < 0.001) and weight decreased by 2.37 kg (-3.5 to -1.2; P < 0.001). More patients achieved an A1C <7.0% with sotagliflozin (16.3%) than placebo (2.4%; P = 0.026). Rates of documented hypoglycemia and severe hypoglycemia were similar between groups. One DKA event occurred with placebo, and none occurred with sotagliflozin. Conclusions: In young adults with T1D and suboptimal glycemic control, sotagliflozin plus insulin for 12 weeks numerically improved A1C and significantly improved A1C goal attainment, PPG, and body weight. Sotagliflozin plus insulin was generally well tolerated without any episodes of DKA (NCT02383940).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the incidence and risk factors for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and related adverse events (AEs) in adults with type 1 diabetes treated with sotagliflozin adjunctive to insulin. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Data from two identically designed, 52-week, randomized studies were pooled and analyzed for DKA, changes in β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), and percentage of patients with BHB >0.6 and >1.5 mmol/L. The patients were administered placebo, sotagliflozin 200 mg, or sotagliflozin 400 mg once daily. RESULTS A total of 191 ketosis-related AEs were reported, and 98 underwent adjudication. Of these, 37 events (36 patients) were adjudicated as DKA, with an exposure-adjusted incidence rate of 0.2, 3.1, and 4.2 events per 100 patient-years for placebo, sotagliflozin 200 mg, and sotagliflozin 400 mg, respectively. No patient died of a DKA event. From a baseline BHB of ∼0.13 mmol/L, sotagliflozin treatment led to a small median increase over 52 weeks (≤0.05 mmol/L at all time points). Of sotagliflozin-treated patients, approximately 47% and 7% had ≥1 BHB measurement >0.6 mmol/L and >1.5 mmol/L, respectively (vs. 20% and 2%, respectively, of placebo-treated patients). Subsequent to the implementation of a risk mitigation plan, annualized DKA incidence was lower versus preimplementation in both the sotagliflozin 200 and 400 mg groups. CONCLUSIONS In patients with type 1 diabetes, confirmed DKA incidence increased when sotagliflozin was added to insulin compared with insulin alone. A lower incidence of DKA was observed following the implementation of an enhanced risk mitigation plan, suggesting that this risk can be managed with patient education.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate whether the addition of sotagliflozin to optimized insulin significantly increases the proportion of adults with type 1 diabetes who achieve HbA1c goals without weight gain. MATERIALS AND METHODS In a patient-level pooled analysis (n = 1575) of data from two phase 3, 52-week clinical trials (inTandem1 and inTandem2), the change from baseline in HbA1c and weight as well as the proportion of participants achieving an HbA1c of less than 7% without weight gain were compared between groups treated with placebo, sotagliflozin 200 mg and sotagliflozin 400 mg. RESULTS From a mean baseline HbA1c of 7.7%, mean HbA1c changes at week 24 were -0.36% (95% CI -0.44% to -0.29%) and -0.38% (-0.45% to -0.31%) with sotagliflozin 200 and 400 mg versus placebo (P = .001 for both), respectively, with sustained effects through week 52. Weight significantly decreased at weeks 24 and 52 in both sotagliflozin groups compared with placebo. At week 52, the proportion of patients who achieved an HbA1c of less than 7% without weight gain was 21.8% with sotagliflozin 200 mg, 26.1% with sotagliflozin 400 mg and 9.1% with placebo (P < .001). Other HbA1c, weight and safety composite variables showed similar significant trends. CONCLUSION When added to optimized insulin therapy, sotagliflozin improved glycaemic control and body weight and enabled more adults with type 1 diabetes to achieve HbA1c goals without weight gain over 52 weeks, although there was more diabetic ketoacidosis relative to placebo.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Obesity is increasing in prevalence among patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and is associated with insulin resistance and increased cardiovascular risk. The management of obesity in this population is complicated by defects in pancreatic islet hormone secretion and the effects of exogenous insulin treatment. Here, we review the effects of antiobesity medications and adjunct-to-insulin medications on body weight in T1D. RECENT FINDINGS There is a profound evidence gap around the use of drugs for the treatment of obesity in T1D since systematic studies have not been performed in this population. Adjunctive-to-insulin therapy with certain antihyperglycemic agents leads to modest weight loss and reductions in insulin dose in T1D. However, only pramlintide has been approved in the United States for clinical use as adjunctive therapy in T1D. SUMMARY The growing prevalence of obesity in T1D has created an unmet need for safe and effective therapies to treat overweight and obesity in this population. Currently, antiobesity medications are used off-label for the treatment of patients with T1D. Additional studies are needed to understand the role of these medications in the management of obesity in patients with T1D.

Abstract
Sotagliflozin (Zynquista™) is the first dual inhibitor of sodium-glucose co-transporter-1 and -2 (SGLT1 and 2). In the phase 3, inTANDEM 1-3 trials, adjunctive use of oral sotagliflozin (200 mg or 400 mg once daily) improved glycaemic control and reduced bodyweight and insulin requirements relative to placebo over 24 weeks of treatment in adults whose type 1 diabetes (T1D) was inadequately controlled by insulin therapy. Similar benefits were seen with the drug in patients who were overweight/obese [i.e. body mass index (BMI) ≥ 27 kg/m2] in inTANDEM 1 and 2 (pooled). The benefits of sotagliflozin were largely maintained over 52 weeks of treatment. Overall, use of sotagliflozin in this setting is generally well tolerated and reduces, or at least does not increase, the likelihood of hypoglycaemia; however, as with other SGLT inhibitors, sotagliflozin carries a risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). On the basis of its risk/benefit profile, sotagliflozin is indicated in the EU as an adjunct to insulin in adults with T1D with a BMI ≥ 27 kg/m2 who have failed to achieve adequate glycaemic control despite optimal insulin therapy, thus expanding the currently limited adjunctive oral treatment options available for use in this population.

Abstract
CONTEXT The effect of sotagliflozin (a dual sodium-glucose cotransporter [SGLT] 2 and SGLT1 inhibitor) on intestinal glucose absorption has not been investigated in humans. OBJECTIVE To measure rate of appearance of oral glucose (RaO) using a dual glucose tracer method following standardized mixed meals taken after single sotagliflozin or canagliflozin doses. SETTING Clinical research organization. DESIGN AND PARTICIPANTS In a double-blind, 3-period crossover study (NCT01916863), 24 healthy participants were randomized to 2 cohorts of 12 participants. Within each cohort, participants were randomly assigned single oral doses of either sotagliflozin 400 mg, canagliflozin 300 mg, or placebo on each of test days 1, 8, and 15. On test days, Cohort 1 had breakfast containing [6,6-2H2] glucose 0.25 hours postdose and lunch containing [1-2H1] glucose 5.25 hours postdose; Cohort 2 had breakfast containing no labeled glucose 0.25 hours postdose and lunch containing [6,6-2H2] glucose 4.25 hours postdose. All participants received a 10- to 15-hour continuous [U-13C6] glucose infusion starting 5 hours before their first [6,6-2H2] glucose-containing meal. MAIN OUTCOME RaO, postprandial glucose (PPG), and postprandial insulin. RESULTS Sotagliflozin and canagliflozin decreased area under the curve (AUC)0-1 hour and/or AUC0-2 hours for RaO, PPG, and insulin after breakfast and/or the 4.25-hour postdose lunch (P < .05 versus placebo). After the 5.25-hour postdose lunch, sotagliflozin lowered RaO AUC0-1 hour and PPG AUC0-5 hours versus both placebo and canagliflozin (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS Sotagliflozin delayed and blunted intestinal glucose absorption after meals, resulting in lower PPG and insulin levels, likely due to prolonged local inhibition of intestinal SGLT1 that persisted for ≥5 hours after dosing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND According to the centers for disease control and prevention, 14% of American adults have diabetes - 10% know it, and more than 4% go undiagnosed. Sotagliflozin is a new type of diabetes drug This study is to compare the efficacy of Sotagliflozin therapy for Diabetes Mellitus (DM) between week 24 with week 52. METHODS AND ANALYSIS Through to October 2019, Web of Science, PubMed Database, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, Clinical Trials and CNKI will be searched to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) exploring SOTA therapy for DM. Strict screening and quality evaluation will be performed on the obtained literature independently by 2 researchers; outcome indexes will be extracted. The bias risk of the included studies will be evaluated based on Cochrane assessment tool. Meta-analysis will be performed on the data using Revman 5.3 software. We will provide practical and targeted results assessing the lost efficacy of SOTA therapy for DM from week 24 to week 52, to provide reference for clinicians. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The stronger evidence about the lost efficacy of SOTA for DM from week 24 to week 52 will be provided for clinicians. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER PROSPERO CRD42019133027. STRENGTHS AND LIMITATIONS OF THIS STUDY Whether the efficacy of SOTA could last for a long time is still inconclusive, high quality research is still lacking, and this study attempts to explore this issue; The efficacy of SOTA at different times will be compared by direct comparisons and indirect comparisons, this can lead to more accurate and reliable results; The quality of the included literatures are uneven, and some data might be estimated by calculation, which may affect the quality of this study.

Dose-dependent glycometabolic effects of sotagliflozin on type 1 diabetes over 12 weeks: The inTandem4 trial. Diabetes Obes Metab 2019; 21:2440-2449. [PMID: 31264767 PMCID: PMC6851757 DOI: 10.1111/dom.13825] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2019] [Revised: 06/20/2019] [Accepted: 06/26/2019] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
AIMS To assess the dose-related effects of sotagliflozin, a novel dual inhibitor of sodium-glucose co-transporters-1 and -2, in type 1 diabetes (T1D). MATERIALS AND METHODS In this 12-week, multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled dose-ranging trial, adults with T1D were randomized to once-daily placebo (n = 36) or sotagliflozin 75 mg (n = 35), 200 mg (n = 35) or 400 mg (n = 35). Insulin was maintained at baseline doses. The primary endpoint was least squares mean (LSM) change in glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) from baseline. Other endpoints included proportion of participants with ≥0.5% HbA1c reduction and assessments of 2-hour postprandial glucose (PPG), weight, and urinary glucose excretion (UGE). RESULTS From a mean baseline of 8.0% ± 0.8% (full study population), placebo-adjusted LSM HbA1c decreased by 0.3% (P = .07), 0.5% (P < .001) and 0.4% (P = .006) with sotagliflozin 75 mg, 200 mg and 400 mg, respectively, at week 12. In the placebo and sotagliflozin 75 mg, 200 mg and 400 mg groups, 33.3%, 37.1%, 80.0% and 65.7% of participants achieved an HbA1c reduction ≥0.5%. Placebo-adjusted PPG decreased by 22.2 mg/dL (P = .28), 28.7 mg/dL (P = .16) and 50.2 mg/dL (P = .013), UGE increased by 41.8 g/d (P = .006), 57.7 g/d (P < .001) and 70.5 g/d (P < .001), and weight decreased by 1.3 kg (P = .038), 2.4 kg (P < .001) and 2.6 kg (P < .001) with sotagliflozin 75 mg, 200 mg and 400 mg, respectively. One case of severe hypoglycaemia occurred in each sotagliflozin group and one case of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) occurred with sotagliflozin 400 mg. CONCLUSIONS Combined with stable insulin doses, sotagliflozin 200 mg and 400 mg improved glycaemic control and weight in adults with T1D. Sotagliflozin 400 mg reduced PPG levels. UGE increased with all sotagliflozin doses. Rates of severe hypoglycaemia and DKA were low (NCT02459899).
