A study of dapagliflozin in patients with type 2 diabetes receiving high doses of insulin plus insulin sensitizers: applicability of a novel insulin-independent treatment.

ABSTRACT: To determine whether dapagliflozin, which selectively inhibits renal glucose reabsorption, lowers hyperglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes that is poorly controlled with high insulin doses plus oral antidiabetic agents (OADs).This was a randomized, double-blind, three-arm parallel-group, placebo-controlled, 26-center trial (U.S. and Canada). Based on data from an insulin dose-adjustment setting cohort (n = 4), patients in the treatment cohort (n = 71) were randomly assigned 1:1:1 to placebo, 10 mg dapagliflozin, or 20 mg dapagliflozin, plus OAD(s) and 50% of their daily insulin dose. The primary outcome was change from baseline in A1C at week 12 (dapagliflozin vs. placebo, last observation carried forward [LOCF]).At week 12 (LOCF), the 10- and 20-mg dapagliflozin groups demonstrated -0.70 and -0.78% mean differences in A1C change from baseline versus placebo. In both dapagliflozin groups, 65.2% of patients achieved a decrease from baseline in A1C > or =0.5% versus 15.8% in the placebo group. Mean changes from baseline in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) were +17.8, +2.4, and -9.6 mg/dl (placebo, 10 mg dapagliflozin, and 20 mg dapagliflozin, respectively). Postprandial glucose (PPG) reductions with dapagliflozin also showed dose dependence. Mean changes in total body weight were -1.9, -4.5, and -4.3 kg (placebo, 10 mg dapagliflozin, and 20 mg dapagliflozin). Overall, adverse events were balanced across all groups, although more genital infections occurred in the 20-mg dapagliflozin group than in the placebo group.In patients receiving high insulin doses plus insulin sensitizers who had their baseline insulin reduced by 50%, dapagliflozin decreased A1C, produced better FPG and PPG levels, and lowered weight more than placebo.

Project description:ObjectiveTo examine the mechanisms responsible for improved glycemia with combined sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) plus dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitor therapy in type 2 diabetes.Research design and methodsFifty-six patients (HbA1c 8.9 ± 0.2% [74 ± 2 mmol/mol]) were randomized to dapagliflozin (DAPA) 10 mg, DAPA/saxagliptin (SAXA) 10/5 mg, or placebo (PCB) for 16 weeks. Basal endogenous glucose production (EGP) (3-3H-glucose), urinary glucose excretion, glucose/lipid oxidation, HbA1c, and substrate/hormone levels were determined before treatment (Pre-Tx) and after treatment (Post-Tx).ResultsAt week 16, HbA1c decrease was greater (P < 0.05) in DAPA/SAXA (-2.0 ± 0.3%) vs. DAPA (-1.4 ± 0.2%) and greater than PCB (0.2 ± 0.2%). Day 1 of drug administration, EGP (∼2.40 mg/kg/min) decreased by -0.44 ± 0.09 mg/kg/min in PCB (P < 0.05) but only by -0.21 ± 0.02 mg/kg/min in DAPA and DAPA/SAXA (P < 0.05 vs. PCB). At week 16, EGP increased to 2.67 ± 0.09 mg/kg/min (DAPA) and 2.61 ± 0.08 mg/kg/min (DAPA/SAXA), despite reductions in fasting plasma glucose by 47 and 77 mg/dL, respectively, and no changes in PCB. Baseline plasma free fatty acids rose by 40 µmol/L with DAPA but declined by -110 with PCB and -90 µmol/L with DAPA/SAXA (P < 0.05, Pre-Tx vs. Post-Tx). In DAPA, carbohydrate oxidation rates decreased from 1.1 ± 0.1 to 0.7 ± 0.1 mg/kg/min, whereas lipid oxidation rates increased from 0.6 ± 0.1 to 0.8 ± 0.1 mg/kg/min (P < 0.01). In DAPA/SAXA, the shift in carbohydrate (1.1 ± 0.1 to 0.9 ± 0.1 mg/kg/min) and lipid (0.6 ± 0.1 to 0.7 ± 0.1 mg/kg/min) oxidation was attenuated (P < 0.05).ConclusionsThe addition of SAXA to DAPA resulted in superior glycemic control compared with DAPA monotherapy partly because of increased glucose utilization and oxidation. Although the decrease in insulin/glucagon ratio was prevented by SAXA, EGP paradoxical elevation persisted, indicating that other factors mediate EGP changes in response to SGLT2i-induced glucosuria.

Project description:Introduction: Dapagliflozin-induced improvement of glycemic control in patients with inadequately controlled type 1 diabetes (T1D) is complicated by the delicate balance between blood glucose and exogenous insulin. In this work, we developed a semi-mechanistic population exposure-response model using pooled patient-level data to characterize the joint effect of dapagliflozin and insulin on average daily glucose concentrations and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels in patients with T1D. Methods: A non-linear mixed-effects model was developed in Monolix (Lixoft, France) and R software (R Project, www.r-project.org) using pooled patient-level data from phase 2 and phase 3 trials (NCT01498185, NCT02460978, NCT02268214). Results: Because of the apparent lack of association between bolus insulin dose and glucose concentrations measured by continuous glucose monitoring the model was able to capture the quantitative link between basal, but not bolus, insulin dose and plasma glucose. Even so, this association remained flat, with a 50% decrease in the basal insulin dose from pretreatment level, resulting in ∼5% increase in glucose exposure. Therefore, dapagliflozin efficacy was not significantly affected by the insulin dose adjustment, with 24-week HbA1c reduction on 10-mg dapagliflozin treatment changing from -0.5 [95% CI: -0.55, -0.45] to -0.42 [95%CI: -0.48, -0.36] after adjustment. At the same time, the analysis revealed ∼2-fold steeper slope of glucose-HbA1c relationship in dapagliflozin-treated patients vs. control group, suggesting the presence of additional dapagliflozin treatment-related benefits, not explained by the dapagliflozin-mediated ∼4% increase in plasma hemoglobin levels. Finally, the efficacy of 5 and 10-mg doses, represented by the mean HbA1c reduction at week 24 of dapagliflozin treatment, was shown to be notably greater than the 1- and 2.5-mg doses. Discussion: This research is an attempt to deconvolute and reconstruct dapagliflozin-HbA1c dose-response relationship in T1D by accounting for the drug's action on both daily insulin dose and plasma glucose on a subject-level. While the model is able to adequately capture the observed data, it also revealed that the variability in CGM is poorly approximated by the variability in insulin dose alone. Furthermore, the slope of CGM/HbA1c relationship may differ depending on the population and treatment scenarios. As such, a deeper dive into the physiological mechanisms is required to better quantify the intricate network of glycemic response under dapagliflozin treatment.
