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.
