Abstract
The number of diabetic patients has risen dramatically in recent decades, owing mostly to the rising incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Several oral antidiabetic medications are used for the treatment of T2DM including, α-glucosidases inhibitors, biguanides, sulfonylureas, meglitinides, GLP-1 receptor agonists, PPAR-γ agonists, DDP4 inhibitors, and SGLT2 inhibitors. In this review we focus on the possible effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on different body systems. Beyond the diabetic state, SGLT2 inhibitors have revealed a demonstrable ability to ameliorate cardiac remodeling, enhance myocardial function, and lower heart failure mortality. Additionally, SGLT2 inhibitors can modify adipocytes and their production of cytokines, such as adipokines and adiponectin, which enhances insulin sensitivity and delays diabetes onset. On the other hand, SGLT2 inhibitors have been linked to decreased total hip bone mineral deposition and increased hip bone resorption in T2DM patients. More data are needed to evaluate the role of SGLT2 inhibitors on cancer. Finally, the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on neuroprotection appear to be both direct and indirect, according to scientific investigations utilizing various experimental models. SGLT2 inhibitors improve vascular tone, elasticity, and contractility by reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, insulin signaling pathways, and endothelial cell proliferation. They also improve brain function, synaptic plasticity, acetylcholinesterase activity, and reduce amyloid plaque formation, as well as regulation of the mTOR pathway in the brain, which reduces brain damage and cognitive decline.

Abstract
PURPOSE The oral, α-specific phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3Kα) inhibitor alpelisib is the first PI3K inhibitor approved for the treatment of advanced breast cancer. As alpelisib is a relatively new therapeutic option, specific guidance and a multidisciplinary approach are needed to provide optimal patient care. The primary objective of this manuscript is to provide comprehensive guidance on minimizing and managing adverse events (AEs) for patients with advanced breast cancer who are receiving alpelisib. METHODS Clinical studies, prescribing information, published literature, and relevant guidelines were reviewed to provide recommendations on the prevention and management of alpelisib-associated AEs. RESULTS The most common AEs associated with alpelisib in the phase 3 SOLAR-1 trial were hyperglycemia and rash (which are considered on-target effects of PI3Kα inhibition) and gastrointestinal AEs, including diarrhea, nausea, and decreased appetite. These AEs require regular monitoring, early recognition, and prompt initiation of appropriate treatment. In addition, there are effective strategies to reduce the onset and severity of frequently observed AEs-in particular, onset of hyperglycemia and rash may be reduced by lifestyle changes (such as reduced intake of carbohydrates and regular exercise) and antihistamine prophylaxis, respectively. To reduce risk of severe hyperglycemia, it is essential to achieve adequate glycemic control prior to initiation of alpelisib treatment. CONCLUSION Overall, alpelisib-associated AEs are generally manageable with prompt recognition, regular monitoring, and appropriate intervention, preferably with a multidisciplinary approach.

Abstract
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> While ample evidence on improved glycemic control, weight reduction, and lowered blood pressure (BP) with sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) exists, real-world data on the potential benefit of SGLT2i on the diabetic population in the Middle East are lacking. The aim of our study was to describe the glycemic control, changes in body weight, body mass index (BMI), lipid profile, and BPs in patients receiving dapagliflozin with other antidiabetic medication. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> The REWARD study was a multicenter, post-authorization, prospective, open-label, noninterventional, real-world, cohort study. We enrolled 511 adult, type 2 diabetes mellitus patients on antidiabetic medications. These patients were started on dapagliflozin and followed up for 1 year to assess changes in their clinical and laboratory outcomes. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The mean HbA1c decreased significantly from 8.5 ± 1.6% at baseline to 7.6 ± 1.3% after 12 months (<i>p</i> value <0.001), with an absolute change of 0.9%. Of the study population, 41.6% of patients reached an HbA1c level less than 7% (53 mmol/mol). The systolic pressure improved (mean change = −1.9 mm Hg, <i>p</i> value = 0.003), yet no change in the diastolic pressure was observed. Both body weight and BMI significantly decreased by 0.7 kg and 0.2 kg/m<sup>2</sup>, respectively (<i>p</i> value <0.001). About 84.5% of patients were on antidyslipidemic agents, while 57.4% were on antihypertensives. Approximately 83.6% of adverse events were mild. A total of 90 hypoglycemic episodes were reported; none were severe. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> In a real-world setting, dapagliflozin in combination with other antidiabetic medications exhibited significant improvement in glycemic control, weight, BMI, and systolic BP. Additionally, it demonstrated a well-tolerated safety profile.

Abstract
Background: Currently, the association between sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT-2i) and malignancy risk has yet to be fully elucidated. This meta-analysis aimed to determine the relationship between SGLT-2i and malignancy risk in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients. Methods: We searched PubMed, ScienceDirect, EMBASE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Web of Science to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published up to August 2020 related to T2D patients treated with SGLT-2i vs. placebo or other hypoglycemic agents. The meta-analysis's primary outcome was malignancies' incidence, and the results were evaluated using risk ratio (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Results: We reviewed 76 articles (77 RCTs), comprising 45,162 and 43,811 patients in SGLT-2i and control groups, respectively. Compared with the control group, SGLT-2i had no significant association with augmented overall malignancy risk in T2D patients (RR = 1.05, 95% CI = 0.97–1.14, P = 0.20), but ertugliflozin may upsurge the risk (RR = 1.80, 95% CI = 1.02–3.17, P = 0.04). Compared with active hypoglycemic agents, dapagliflozin may increase (RR = 2.71, 95% CI = 1.46–6.43, P = 0.02) and empagliflozin may decrease (RR = 0.67, 95% CI = 0.45–0.98, P = 0.04) the malignancy risk. Compared with placebo, empagliflozin may exhibit risk increase (RR = 1.25, 95% CI = 1.05–1.49, P = 0.01), primarily in digestive system (RR = 1.48, 95% CI = 0.99–2.21, P = 0.05). Conclusions: Our results proposed that in diverse comparisons, ertugliflozin and dapagliflozin seemed to increase the malignancy risk in T2D patients. Empagliflozin may cause malignancy risk reduction compared with active hypoglycemic agents but increase overall risk primarily in the digestive system compared with placebo. In short, the relationship between SGLT-2i and malignancy in T2D patients remains unclear.

Abstract
Selective inhibitors of sodium-glucose cotransporter belong to a new class of drugs for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. The mechanism of their action is based on insulin-independent reduction of glucose reabsorption in the proximal renal tubules, which leads to stimulation of its excretion in the urine and, accordingly, to a decrease in the concentration of glucose in the blood plasma. Drugs of this group demonstrate effectiveness in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, but their use may be associated with an increased frequency of urinary tract infections. Pharmacological glucosuria, which leads to a decrease in the concentration of glucose in the blood, creates the preconditions for the occurrence of urinary tract infections. Urinary tract and genital infections are the most common adverse events associated with the use of sodium-glucose cotransporter inhibitors. In the presented literature review for 20162019, the relationship between urinary tract infections in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and therapy with sodium-glucose cotransporter inhibitors was analyzed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION No study has compared the effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors (DPP4is) on patients' quality-of-life (QOL). METHODS We enrolled 253 drug-naïve Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), randomly assigned them into a dapagliflozin (SGLT2i) group or DPP4i group in approximately 1:1 ratio, and monitored them for 24 weeks. The primary endpoint was the proportion of subjects indicating improvement in the "overall quality of life" domain of SHIELD-WQ-9 at week 24. Secondary endpoints included other domains of SHIELD-WQ-9, DTR-QOL, EQ-5D-5L, medication preference, medication adherence, diet therapy adherence, body weight, body mass index (BMI), abdominal circumference, HbA1c, and frequency of adverse events. RESULTS The proportion of subjects indicating improvement in the "overall quality of life" domain of SHIELD-WQ-9 at week 24 was higher in the dapagliflozin group (28.4%) than in the DPP4i group (18.6%) (p = 0.08). The proportion of subjects indicating improvement in the "physical health" domain of SHIELD-WQ-9 at week 24 was significantly higher in the dapagliflozin group (42.2%) than in the DPP4i group (23.7%) (p = 0.004). Total scores and domain 1 scores of DTR-QOL showed greater improvement in the dapagliflozin group (14.3 ± 15.6 and 15.5 ± 20.8, respectively) than in the DPP4i group (10.2 ± 15.6 and 10.3 ± 19.5, respectively) (both p = 0.05). EQ-5D-5L scores had significantly improved in the DPP4i group (0.023 ± 0.088) (p = 0.005); the intergroup difference was not significant (p = 0.14). Body weight (p < 0.001), BMI (p < 0.001), and abdominal circumference (p = 0.019) had significantly decreased in the dapagliflozin group compared with the corresponding values in the DPP4i group. CONCLUSION Dapagliflozin showed a comparable or more favorable benefit on Japanese patients' QOL compared with DPP4is. Dapagliflozin was well tolerated. It significantly reduced body weight, which was significantly correlated with improvement in the patients' QOL. This study demonstrates that dapagliflozin can be used as a first-line drug for T2DM in Japan with a beneficial impact on patients' QOL.

Abstract
Fasting from dawn to sunset, during the holy month of Ramadan, constitutes one of the five main pillars in Islam and is observed by the majority of Muslims. Owing to important physiological changes, Ramadan fasting holds a crucial place in the context of diabetes management. Approximately one-fifth of the world's Muslim population resides in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) region. To discuss the challenges and management of diabetes during Ramadan fasting in the MEA region, a panel of 12 experts in the field of diabetes from across the MEA region attended two expert committee meetings held in Dubai. The key point of discussion was the safety and efficacy of the use of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) during Ramadan, based on outcomes of the recent clinical trials with SGLT2i. This is the first consensus recommendation on the management of diabetes with SGLT2i across the MEA region during Ramadan. The document summarizes expert views and opinions on the current management of diabetes with SGLT2i during Ramadan and aims to enhance the current knowledge and understanding on the issue of diabetes management during Ramadan. This will aid the physicians of the MEA region with appropriate decision-making for their patients during Ramadan.

Abstract
The choroid plexus plays a central role in the regulation of the microenvironment of the central nervous system by secreting the majority of the cerebrospinal fluid and controlling its composition, despite that it only represents approximately 1% of the total brain weight. In addition to a variety of transporter and channel proteins for solutes and water, the choroid plexus epithelial cells are equipped with glucose, fructose, and urate transporters that are used as energy sources or antioxidative neuroprotective substrates. This review focuses on the recent advances in the understanding of the transporters of the SLC2A and SLC5A families (GLUT1, SGLT2, GLUT5, GLUT8, and GLUT9), as well as on the urate-transporting URAT1 and BCRP/ABCG2, which are expressed in choroid plexus epithelial cells. The glucose, fructose, and urate transporters repertoire in the choroid plexus epithelium share similar features with the renal proximal tubular epithelium, although some of these transporters exhibit inversely polarized submembrane localization. Since choroid plexus epithelial cells have high energy demands for proper functioning, a decline in the expression and function of these transporters can contribute to the process of age-associated brain impairment and pathophysiology of neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
The newly developed sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) effectively modulate glucose metabolism in diabetes. Although clinical data suggest that SGLT2is (empagliflozin, dapagliflozin, ertugliflozin, canagliflozin, ipragliflozin) are safe and protect against renal and cardiovascular events, very little attention has been dedicated to the effects of these compounds on different electrolytes. As with other antidiabetic compounds, some effects on water and electrolytes balance have been documented. Although the natriuretic effect and osmotic diuresis are expected with SGLT2is, these compounds may also modulate urinary potassium, magnesium, phosphate, and calcium excretion. Notably, they have had no effect on plasma sodium levels and promoted only small increases in serum potassium and magnesium concentrations in clinical trials. Moreover, SGLT2is may induce an increase in serum phosphate, FGF‐23, and PTH; reduce 1,25‐dihydroxyvitamin D; and generate normal serum calcium. Some published and preliminary reports, as well as unconfirmed reports have suggested an association with bone fractures. Some homeostasis perturbations are transient, whereas others may persist, suggesting that the administration of SGLT2is may affect electrolyte balances in exposed subjects. Although current evidence supports their safety, additional efforts are needed to elucidate the long‐term impact of these compounds on chronic kidney disease, mineral metabolism, and bone health. Indeed, the limited follow‐up studies and the heterogeneity of the case‐mix of different randomized controlled trials preclude a definitive answer on the impact of these compounds on long‐term outcomes such as the risk of bone fracture. Here we review the current understanding of the mechanisms involved in electrolyte handling and the available data on the clinical implications of electrolytes and mineral metabolism perturbations induced by SGLT2i administration. © 2019 The Authors.

[PMID: 30456904 PMCID: PMC6590404 DOI: 10.1111/dom.13586] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2018] [Revised: 11/09/2018] [Accepted: 11/15/2018] [Indexed: 01/14/2023]
Abstract
AIMS To assess the dapagliflozin exposure-response relationship in Japanese and non-Japanese patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and investigate if a dose adjustment is required in Japanese patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data from two clinical studies were used to develop a non-linear mixed effects model describing the relationship between dapagliflozin exposure (area under the concentration curve) and response (24-hour urinary glucose excretion [UGE]) in Japanese and non-Japanese patients with T1DM. The effects of patient-level characteristics (covariates; identified using a stepwise procedure) on response was also assessed. Simulations were performed using median-normalized covariate values. RESULTS Data from 84 patients were included. Average self-monitored blood glucose (SMBG) at day 7, change from baseline in total insulin dose at day 7, and baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) all had a significant effect on 24-hours UGE, with SMBG being the most influential. Dapagliflozin systemic exposure for matching doses and baseline eGFR was similar between Japanese and non-Japanese patients; however, higher SMBG and a greater reduction in total insulin dose was observed in the Japanese population. When the significant covariates were included, the model fit the data well for both populations, and accurately predicted exposure-response in the Japanese and non-Japanese populations, in agreement with the observed data. CONCLUSIONS There was no difference in dapagliflozin exposure-response in Japanese and non-Japanese patients with T1DM once differences in renal function, glycaemic control and insulin dose reductions between studies were considered. Therefore, no dose adjustment is recommended in Japanese patients with T1DM.

Abstract
AIM To assess the efficacy and safety of ipragliflozin as add-on therapy to metformin in Russian patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHODS In this double-blind study conducted in 14 centers in Russia, 165 patients were randomized 2:1 to ipragliflozin (50 mg/day) or placebo for 24 weeks while continuing metformin. Patients who had HbA1c ≥ 7.0% (53 mmol/mol) at Week 12 received open-label ipragliflozin (50 mg/day) in addition to the blinded drug from Week 12-24. RESULTS Significant reductions in HbA1c and body weight from baseline to Week 12 in favor of ipragliflozin were observed (adjusted mean difference to placebo: -0.3% (-3 mmol/mol), P = 0.048 and -1.34 kg, P < 0.001, respectively). The incidence of AEs was similar in both groups. Uptitration to 100 mg/day ipragliflozin led to a further reduction in body weight (mean change from Week 12: -0.65 kg, P = 0.004) and an additional 13% (9/69) of patients achieving HbA1c < 7.0% (53 mmol/mol) at Week 24. Incidence of AEs was similar among patients receiving ipragliflozin 50 mg/day (23.7%) and 100 mg/day (24.6%). CONCLUSION Ipragliflozin 50 mg/day added to metformin significantly reduced HbA1c and body weight after 12 weeks and showed a safety profile comparable to placebo. Uptitration to 100 mg/day improved clinical outcomes with no additional safety concerns.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In addition to their effects on glycemic control, two specific classes of relatively new anti-diabetic drugs, namely the sodium glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) have demonstrated reduced rates of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D) at high risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). This review summarizes recent experimental results that inform putative molecular mechanisms underlying these benefits. RECENT FINDINGS SGLT2i and GLP-1RA exert cardiovascular effects by targeting in both common and distinctive ways (A) several mediators of macro- and microvascular pathophysiology: namely (A1) inflammation and atherogenesis, (A2) oxidative stress-induced endothelial dysfunction, (A3) vascular smooth muscle cell reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and proliferation, and (A4) thrombosis. These agents also exhibit (B) hemodynamic effects through modulation of (B1) natriuresis/diuresis and (B2) the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. This review highlights that while GLP-1RA exert direct effects on vascular (endothelial and smooth muscle) cells, the effects of SGLT2i appear to include the activation of signaling pathways that prevent adverse vascular remodeling. Both SGLT2i and GLP-1RA confer hemodynamic effects that counter adverse cardiac remodeling.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Ertugliflozin is a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor in development for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The safety and efficacy of ertugliflozin were evaluated over 52 weeks in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). METHODS In this double-blind randomized study (NCT01986855), patients with glycated hemoglobin (A1C) 7.0-10.5% and stage 3 CKD [estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 30 to < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2] who were undergoing treatment with standard diabetes therapy (or therapies) including insulin and/or sulfonylureas were randomized to once-daily ertugliflozin 5 mg, 15 mg, or placebo. Patients on metformin underwent a pre-randomization ≥ 10-week wash-off period. The primary endpoint was change from baseline in A1C at week 26 in the overall cohort. Secondary efficacy endpoints were assessed in the stage 3A CKD cohort (eGFR ≥ 45 to < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2) at weeks 26 and 52. Safety was assessed in the overall cohort. RESULTS 468 patients were randomized (baseline mean A1C 8.2%). At week 26, reductions from baseline in A1C were observed across groups in the overall cohort [least squares mean changes (95% confidence interval) - 0.3% (- 0.4, - 0.1), - 0.3% (- 0.4, - 0.1), and - 0.4% (- 0.6, - 0.3) for placebo and for ertugliflozin 5 mg and 15 mg, respectively]. Prohibited use of metformin was identified in ~ 17% of patients and impacted evaluation of the primary endpoint. Greater reductions from baseline in body weight, fasting plasma glucose, and systolic blood pressure were observed with ertugliflozin versus placebo at week 26 (stage 3A CKD cohort). The incidences of urinary tract infections, genital mycotic infections, and hypoglycemia adverse events were not meaningfully different between groups. The incidence of hypovolemia-related adverse events was higher with ertugliflozin relative to placebo. CONCLUSION Although surreptitious metformin use impacted the primary analysis, reductions in blood glucose and body weight were observed with ertugliflozin in patients with T2DM and stage 3 CKD; ertugliflozin had an acceptable safety profile.

Abstract
Objective: To review the pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, safety, and place in therapy of the fixed-dose combination (FDC) product, QTERN (dapagliflozin/saxagliptin) tablets. Data Sources: Searches of MEDLINE (1946 to July 1, 2017) were conducted using the keywords QTERN, saxagliptin, and dapagliflozin. Additional data were obtained from the prescribing information, the product dossier, and Clinicaltrials.gov . Study Selection and Data Extraction: All English language articles related to pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, or safety of the combination therapy in human subjects were reviewed. Data Synthesis: The pharmacokinetics of saxagliptin and dapagliflozin were not affected significantly when administered as an FDC product. Saxagliptin may suppress the increased secretion of glucagon associated with dapagliflozin. The combination dapagliflozin/saxagliptin has been studied as add-on therapy to metformin in patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The difference in hemoglobin A1C (A1C) between saxagliptin + dapagliflozin + metformin (triple therapy) and saxagliptin + metformin was −0.59 (95% CI = −0.81 to −0.37, P < 0.0001), and the difference between triple therapy and dapagliflozin + metformin was −0.27 (95% CI = −0.48 to −0.05, P = 0.0166). The combination was well tolerated when added to metformin. Conclusion: QTERN (dapagliflozin/saxagliptin) tablets are a reasonable option for patients with T2DM not controlled on metformin, but cost, insurance coverage, and a lackluster reduction in A1C will likely limit its use until more data regarding its effects on complications of diabetes and cardiovascular outcomes become available.

Abstract
AIMS Sodium-glucose co-transporter type 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are a new class of anti-hyperglycaemic agents in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This review examines their mechanism of action and provides an overview of safety and efficacy from the main studies of SGLT2 inhibitors marketed in the United States and Europe, namely, canagliflozin, dapagliflozin and empagliflozin. METHODS We searched the PubMed database to identify relevant publications on the mechanism of action of SGLT2 inhibitors and clinical trial reports. RESULTS Clinical trials in patients with T2DM have shown significant improvements in glycaemic control vs placebo with canagliflozin, dapagliflozin and empagliflozin: patients were more likely to reach target glycated haemoglobin levels compared with patients receiving placebo. All SGLT2 inhibitors also led to modest reductions in body weight and blood pressure vs placebo. Generally, all agents were well tolerated, with the most common adverse events with this class being genital mycotic infections and urinary tract infections. Hypoglycaemia was reported at rates similar to those seen with placebo, except when SGLT2 inhibitors were given in combination with insulin or an insulin secretagogue. Long-term outcome data are available only for empagliflozin: in the EMPA-REG OUTCOME study, empagliflozin demonstrated reduced risk of the composite end-point of 3-point major adverse cardiovascular events (cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction or non-fatal stroke), primarily because of a significant reduction in cardiovascular mortality. CONCLUSIONS SGLT2 inhibitors are an exciting addition to the list of available agents for T2DM, and may be suitable for various types of patients who need additional glycaemic control.
