Effects of adding linagliptin to basal insulin regimen for inadequately controlled type 2 diabetes: a ?52-week randomized, double-blind study.

ABSTRACT: To evaluate the efficacy and long-term safety of linagliptin added to basal insulins in type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on basal insulin with or without oral agents.A total of 1,261 patients (HbA1c ?7.0% [53 mmol/mol] to ?10.0% [86 mmol/mol]) on basal insulin alone or combined with metformin and/or pioglitazone were randomized (1:1) to double-blind treatment with linagliptin 5 mg once daily or placebo for ?52 weeks. The basal insulin dose was kept unchanged for 24 weeks but could thereafter be titrated according to fasting plasma glucose levels at the investigators' discretion. The primary end point was the mean change in HbA1c from baseline to week 24. The safety analysis incorporated data up to a maximum of 110 weeks.At week 24, HbA1c changed from a baseline of 8.3% (67 mmol/mol) by -0.6% (-6.6 mmol/mol) and by 0.1% (1.1 mmol/mol) with linagliptin and placebo, respectively (treatment difference -0.65% [95% CI -0.74 to -0.55] [-7.1 mmol/mol]; P < 0.0001). Despite the option to uptitrate basal insulin, it was adjusted only slightly upward (week 52, linagliptin 2.6 IU/day, placebo 4.2 IU/day; P < 0.003), resulting in no further HbA1c improvements. Frequencies of hypoglycemia (week 24, linagliptin 22.0%, placebo 23.2%; treatment end, linagliptin 31.4%, placebo 32.9%) and adverse events (linagliptin 78.4%, placebo 81.4%) were similar between groups. Mean body weight remained unchanged (week 52, linagliptin -0.30 kg, placebo -0.04 kg).Linagliptin added to basal insulin therapy significantly improved glycemic control relative to placebo without increasing hypoglycemia or body weight.

Project description:Metabolic risk factors, termed metabolic syndrome, which include obesity, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and hypertension, are more common in patients with bipolar disorder than in the general population. Moreover, medications used to treat bipolar disorder carry some risk of worsening metabolic parameters.The study was conducted at 46 study centers in the United States, although only 31 study centers enrolled patients in the 40-week extension phase. Patients with acute bipolar I mania, manic or mixed (DSM-IV-TR criteria; Young Mania Rating Scale score ? 20), who required hospitalization were randomly assigned to double-blind aripiprazole (15-30 mg/d), lithium (900-1500 mg/d), or placebo for 3 weeks. Patients treated with aripiprazole or lithium continued treatment to week 12, after which they could enter a double-blind 40-week extension phase. Patients were enrolled in the 12-week acute treatment phase between April 2004 and July 2006; the first patient entered extension treatment in October 2004, and the last patient completed treatment in May 2007. Changes in metabolic parameters were compared between patients treated with aripiprazole or lithium for up to 52 weeks using last observation carried forward and analysis of covariance. Analysis stratified by baseline body mass index (BMI) was also conducted.Modest increases in body weight were observed in both groups: +0.97 kg (2.1 lb) for aripiprazole (n = 127) and + 0.74 (1.6 lb) for lithium (n = 136), P = .60. A significant difference in body weight increase was observed only among patients with a BMI < 25: + 2.66 kg (5.9 lb) for aripiprazole (n = 35) and + 0.40 kg (0.9 lb) for lithium (n = 37), P = .02. Mean changes from baseline to week 52 in fasting levels of total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, plasma glucose, triglycerides, or insulin (last observation carried forward) were small in both aripiprazole and lithium treatment groups; no significant differences were observed. Mean laboratory values were within the normal or borderline range for both treatment groups across all BMI categories.Comparably modest and similar changes in metabolic parameters were observed in patients with bipolar disorder treated for up to 1 year with either lithium or aripiprazole.clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT00095511.

Project description:BackgroundManagement of type 2 diabetes with metformin often does not provide adequate glycemic control, thereby necessitating add-on treatment. In a 24-week clinical trial, dapagliflozin, an investigational sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor, improved glycemic control in patients inadequately controlled with metformin. The present study is an extension that was undertaken to evaluate dapagliflozin as long-term therapy in this population.MethodsThis was a long-term extension (total 102 weeks) of a 24-week phase 3, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel-group trial. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1:1:1) to blinded daily treatment (placebo, or dapagliflozin 2.5 to 5, or 10 mg) plus open-label metformin (≥1,500 mg). The previously published primary endpoint was change from baseline in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) at 24 weeks. This paper reports the follow-up to week 102, with analysis of covariance model performed at 24 weeks with last observation carried forward; a repeated measures analysis was utilized to evaluate changes from baseline in HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), and weight.ResultsA total of 546 patients were randomized to 1 of the 4 treatments. The completion rate for the 78-week double-blind extension period was lower for the placebo group (63.5%) than for the dapagliflozin groups (68.3% to 79.8%). At week 102, mean changes from baseline HbA1c (8.06%) were +0.02% for placebo compared with -0.48% (P = 0.0008), -0.58% (P <0.0001), and -0.78% (P <0.0001) for dapagliflozin 2.5 to 5, and 10 mg, respectively. In addition, all dapagliflozin groups had sustained reductions from baseline in FPG (-1.07 to -1.47 mmol/l) and body weight (-1.10 to -1.74 kg) at 102 weeks, whereas increases were noted in placebo-treated patients for both of these outcomes. Events of hypoglycemia were rare and were not severe. Evidence suggestive of genital infection was reported in 11.7% to 14.6% of dapagliflozin patients and 5.1% of placebo patients, with one related discontinuation (dapagliflozin 5 mg). Evidence suggestive of urinary tract infection was reported in 8.0% to 13.3% of dapagliflozin patients and 8.0% of placebo patients, with one related discontinuation (dapagliflozin 2.5 mg).ConclusionsDapagliflozin added to metformin for 102 weeks enabled sustained reductions in HbA1c, FPG, and weight without increased risk of hypoglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes who were inadequately controlled on metformin alone.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov: NCT00528879.

Project description:IntroductionThe aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fixed-dose combination (FDC) of dapagliflozin (10 mg) and linagliptin (5 mg) in comparison to linagliptin 5 mg (Trajenta) in patients with insufficiently controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on metformin monotherapy.MethodsThe double-blind, randomized, multicentric, parallel-group phase III trial screened 287 adult patients with T2DM (age 18-65 years) from 16 sites across India. The recruited subjects were undergoing metformin monotherapy ≥ 1000 mg/day for at least 28 days. Patients with HbA1c of 7.5-10.5% (58-91 mmol/l) (n = 232) after 2 weeks of run-in period with linagliptin monotherapy and placebo dapagliflozin/linagliptin on metformin monotherapy were randomized (1:1) in parallel to once daily dapagliflozin/linagliptin 10/5 mg or linagliptin 5 mg for 16 weeks. Patients were stratified on the basis of HbA1c (≤ 9.0% and > 9.0%; ≤ 75 mmol/l and > 75 mmol/l)). A total of 225 subjects completed 16 weeks of treatment, 115 patients in the test group and 110 patients in the reference group.ResultsDapagliflozin/linagliptin (p = 0.0003) exhibited a greater change in HbA1c from baseline than linagliptin (p < 0.0001) in 16 weeks (mean reduction, - 1.28% vs - 0.83%). Test group showed a significant decrease in fasting plasma glucose (FPG), postprandial plasma glucose (PPG) and body weight compared to the reference group. The FDC was well tolerated with adverse events being more frequent in the reference group. No serious adverse events (SAEs) were reported in the study.ConclusionDapagliflozin/linagliptin combination is a novel dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4)/sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor FDC approved in India for patients with T2DM. Potential limitations of this study are a small dose of dapagliflozin (10 mg) in the FDC, a short study duration (30 weeks) and a high minimum threshold for HbA1c (≤ 7.5%; ≤ 53 mmol/l). Results indicate the FDC to be a superior therapeutic option over linagliptin for patients with T2DM on metformin monotherapy.Trial registrationCTRI/2022/08/044563; 01/08/2022.

Project description:BackgroundInterleukin-23 inhibitors are effective and safe for treating moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.ObjectivesTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of mirikizumab in adult patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis through 52 weeks in a phase III randomized controlled trial.MethodsOASIS-1 (NCT03482011) was a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized withdrawal, phase III trial. Patients (n = 530, randomized 4 : 1) received subcutaneous mirikizumab 250 mg or placebo every 4 weeks (Q4W) through week 16. Coprimary endpoints were superiority of mirikizumab vs. placebo on static Physician's Global Assessment (sPGA; score of 0 or 1 with ≥ 2-point improvement) and ≥ 90% improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 90, responders) at week 16. Mirikizumab responders were rerandomized (1 : 1 : 1) to mirikizumab 250 mg every 8 weeks (Q8W), mirikizumab 125 mg Q8W, or placebo Q8W through week 52. Secondary endpoints were evaluated at weeks 16 and 52. Safety was monitored in all patients.ResultsAll primary and key secondary endpoints were met. At week 16, sPGA(0,1) responses were significantly greater with mirikizumab (293 of 423, 69·3%) than placebo (seven of 107, 6·5%) (P < 0·001). PASI 90 response was also greater with mirikizumab (272 of 423, 64·3%) than placebo (seven of 107, 6·5%) (P < 0·001). Significantly more patients in the mirikizumab arms achieved PASI 75 and PASI 100 (mirikizumab 349, 82·5% and 137, 32·4%; placebo 10, 9·3% and 1, 0·9%, respectively; all P < 0·001). At week 52, PASI 90, PASI 100 and sPGA(0,1) responses were mirikizumab 250Q4W/placeboQ8W (N = 91; 19%, 10%, 18%), mirikizumab 250Q4W/125Q8W (N = 90; 86%, 59%, 86%) and mirikizumab 250Q4W/250Q8W (N = 91; 86%, 60%, 82%; all P < 0·001), respectively. Rates of serious adverse events were similar across treatments (induction: mirikizumab 1·2% vs. placebo 1·9%; maintenance: mirikizumab 250Q4W/125Q8W 1%, mirikizumab 250Q4W/250Q8W 3% vs. placebo 3%). No deaths occurred.ConclusionsMirikizumab was superior to placebo at week 16 and maintained efficacy through week 52, with no new safety signals. What is already known about this topic? Interleukin (IL)-23 is a key cytokine in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. Drugs targeting the p19 subunit of IL-23 have recently been approved for the treatment of adult patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. Patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis achieved significantly greater improvements in skin measures and patient-reported quality-of-life measures after 16 weeks when treated every 8 weeks with mirikizumab compared with placebo in a phase II clinical trial. What does this study add? Compared with placebo, mirikizumab demonstrated high levels of efficacy at week 16 in a large phase III trial; safety profiles were similar between the mirikizumab and placebo arms. After week 16, patients maintained on doses of mirikizumab 250 mg every 8 weeks (Q8W) or 125 mg Q8W showed similar efficacy and favourable safety profiles over 52 weeks, whereas patients switched to placebo gradually lost efficacy over time.
