Abstract
No meta-analysis has analyzed the safety and efficacy of rivoglitazone in type-2 diabetes (T2DM). We undertook this meta-analysis to address this knowledge gap. Electronic databases were searched for RCTs involving T2DM patients receiving rivoglitazone in the intervention arm, and placebo/active comparator in the control arm. The primary outcome was to evaluate changes in HbA1c. Secondary outcomes were to evaluate alterations in glucose, lipids, and adverse events. From initially screened 24 articles, data from 3 RCTs (3591 patients) that fulfilled all criteria was analzsed. HbA1c was significantly lower with standard-dose (1 mg/d) [MD-0.86% (95%CI:-1.11--0.61); P < 0.01; I2 = 87%] and high-dose (1.5-2 mg/d) [MD-0.97%(95%CI:-1.03--0.90); P < 0.01; I2 = 19%] rivoglitazone compared to placebo. When compared to pioglitazone (30-45 mg/d), HbA1c lowering was comparable with standard-dose [MD 0.05%(95%CI:-0.01 - 0.11); P = 0.08; I2 = 11%], but superior with high-dose [MD -0.11%(95%CI:-0.18- -0.04); P < 0.01; I2 = 0%] rivoglitazone. Triglycerides were significantly lower with standard-dose [MD-17.95 mg/dl (95%CI:-34.23--1.66); P = 0.03; I2 = 0%] and high-dose [MD-40.41 mg/dl (95%CI:-72.90- -7.93);P = 0.01;I2 = 71%] rivoglitazone compared to placebo. Adiponectin significantly improved with standard-dose [MD 7.94 ng/ml (95%CI: 5.48-10.39); P < 0.01;I2 = 98%] and high-dose [MD 13.82 ng/ml (95%CI: 8.16-19.48); P < 0.01; I2 = 100%] rivoglitazone compared to placebo. hsCRP was significantly lower with standard-dose [MD -1.00 mg/L (95% CI: -1.20 - -0.80); P < 0.01; I2 = 6%] and high-dose [MD -1.50 mg/L (95%CI:-1.59- -1.40); P < 0.01; I2 = 0%] rivoglitazone compared to placebo. Treatment-emergent adverse events with standard-dose [Risk ratio (RR) 1.16 (95%CI: 0.84 -1.60); P = 0.38; I2 = 0%] and high-dose [RR1.34 (95%CI: 0.99-1.83); P = 0.06; I2 = 0%] rivoglitazone was comparable to placebo. Severe adverse events with standard-dose [RR1.88 (95%CI: 0.69-5.12);P = 0.22;I2 = 0%] and high-dose [RR 1.27 (95% CI: 0.45 - 3.59); P = 0.68; I2 = 0%] rivoglitazone was comparable to placebo. This meta-analysis highlights the good glycaemic efficacy and safety of both standard and high-dose rivoglitazone, and appears to be better than lobeglitazone in T2DM.
