Effect of insulin degludec versus sitagliptin in patients with type 2 diabetes uncontrolled on oral antidiabetic agents.


ABSTRACT: The efficacy and safety of insulin degludec (IDeg), a new basal insulin with an ultra-long duration of action, was compared to sitagliptin (Sita) in a 26-week, open-label trial.Insulin-naïve subjects with type 2 diabetes [n?=?458, age: 56?years, diabetes duration: 7.7?years, glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c): 8.9% (74?mmol/mol)] were randomized (1?:?1) to once-daily IDeg or Sita (100?mg orally) as add-on to stable treatment with 1 or 2 oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs).Superiority of IDeg to Sita in improving HbA1c and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) was confirmed [estimated treatment difference (ETD) IDeg-Sita for HbA1c: -0.43%-points [95% confidence interval (CI): -0.61; -0.24, p?

<h4>Aim</h4>The efficacy and safety of insulin degludec (IDeg), a new basal insulin with an ultra-long duration of action, was compared to sitagliptin (Sita) in a 26-week, open-label trial.<h4>Methods</h4>Insulin-naïve subjects with type 2 diabetes [n = 458, age: 56 years, diabetes duration: 7.7 years, glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c): 8.9% (74 mmol/mol)] were randomized (1 : 1) to once-daily IDeg or Sita (100 mg orally) as add-on to stable treatment with 1 or 2 oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs).<h  ...[more]
