G protein-coupled receptor 119 agonist DS-8500a effects on pancreatic ?-cells in Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.

ABSTRACT: AIMS/INTRODUCTION:Pancreatic ?-cell dysfunction contributes to type 2 diabetes mellitus progression. Drugs that improve insulin secretion might be a valuable treatment approach. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of the G protein-coupled receptor 119 agonist DS-8500a on insulin secretory capacity in Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS:This single-center, 4-week, randomized, double-blind, cross-over study enrolled 21 Japanese drug-naïve type 2 diabetes mellitus patients aged ?20 years with glycated hemoglobin ?7.0 and <9.0% (NCT02669732, JapicCTI 163126). Patients received 75 mg of DS-8500a or a placebo orally daily for 4 weeks in a random order. A combined euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic and hyperglycemic clamp test was carried out to assess insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity before and after each 4-week treatment period. Primary end-points were first-phase insulin secretion (insulin area under the curve [AUC]180-190 min and C-peptide AUC180-190 min during the clamp test) and second-phase insulin secretion (insulin AUC190-300 min and C-peptide AUC190-300 min ). Insulin sensitivity (M and M/I values), disposition index and changes in lipid profile were also assessed. RESULTS:DS-8500a significantly increased first- and second-phase insulin AUC (P = 0.0011, P = 0.0112) and C-peptide AUC (P = 0.0012, P < 0.0001) compared with the placebo. At day 28, M and M/I values were comparable with those of the placebo, whereas the disposition index for insulin and C-peptide was significantly increased (P = 0.0108, P = 0.0002). Total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations were significantly reduced, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations were significantly increased compared with the placebo. No significant treatment-emergent adverse events occurred. CONCLUSION:DS-8500a enhanced insulin secretory capacity, but not insulin sensitivity.

Project description:IntroductionG protein-coupled receptor 119 (GPR119) is a promising target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), as both insulin and glucagon-like peptide-1 secretion can be promoted with a single drug. We compared the efficacy and safety of the GPR119 agonist DS-8500a with placebo and sitagliptin 50 mg in Japanese patients with T2DM.MethodsThis randomized, double-blind, parallel-group comparison study was conducted in Japan (trial registration NCT02628392, JapicCTI-153068). Eligible patients aged ≥ 20 years with T2DM and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≥ 7.0% and < 10.0% were randomized to receive placebo, DS-8500a (25, 50, or 75 mg), or sitagliptin 50 mg once daily for 12 weeks. The primary efficacy endpoint was change in HbA1c from baseline to week 12. Secondary endpoints included change in fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glucose AUC0-3h during a meal tolerance test, 2-hour postprandial glucose (2hr-PPG), and changes in lipid parameters (total, low-density lipoprotein (LDL-) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL-) cholesterol, and triglycerides) at week 12. Safety endpoints included adverse events, hypoglycemia, and clinical/laboratory variables.ResultsDS-8500a demonstrated dose-dependent HbA1c lowering compared with placebo at week 12: change from baseline - 0.23% (p = 0.0173), - 0.37% (p = 0.0001), and - 0.44% (p < 0.0001) in the 25-mg, 50-mg, and 75-mg groups, respectively. At 50- and 75-mg doses, DS-8500a significantly lowered FPG, glucose AUC0-3h, and 2hr-PPG compared with placebo. The glucose-lowering effect was maintained up to 12 weeks. DS-8500a did not lower any of the above parameters to a greater extent than sitagliptin. Compared with placebo and sitagliptin, DS-8500a 50 and 75 mg significantly reduced total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, and triglycerides, and significantly increased HDL-cholesterol. All DS-8500a doses were well tolerated. Two cases of clinically relevant drug-related hypoglycemia occurred in the DS-8500a 50-mg group.ConclusionDS-8500a was well tolerated and demonstrated significant glucose-lowering effects and favorable changes in lipid profiles up to 12 weeks in Japanese patients with T2DM.FundingDaiichi Sankyo Co.

Project description:IntroductionThe incidence and prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) are increasing in Japan, and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are commonly used to treat the disease. The objective of this study was to use a discrete choice experiment (DCE) to characterize patient preferences for clinical treatment features of two GLP-1 RAs-dulaglutide 0.75 mg and semaglutide 0.50 mg-among patients with T2D in Japan.MethodsAdult patients with T2D in Japan were administered the DCE via a web-based survey. The DCE examined patient preferences for five treatment attributes (each described by two or three levels), including method of administration, HbA1c change, reduction in cardiovascular (CV) risk, weight change, and common side effects (i.e., nausea). Results were analyzed using multinomial and mixed logit models, and predicted choice probability was calculated to determine the overall probability that either dulaglutide or semaglutide DCE levels were preferred. One DCE choice task included a direct comparison of the dulaglutide 0.75 mg versus semaglutide 0.50 mg treatment profiles.Results190 subjects completed the survey; 29 were excluded after failing the predefined internal validity assessments. In the final analysis sample (N = 161), the attribute with the largest effect on the subjects' choices was reduction in CV risk, followed by HbA1c change and common side effects. Patients' predicted choice probability for the semaglutide profile was 78%, versus 22% for the dulaglutide profile. 28% of patients were "very willing" to initiate treatment with semaglutide's product profile, versus 6% for dulaglutide.ConclusionIn this study, reduction in CV risk and HbA1c change were the key drivers of GLP-1 RA medication preference in Japanese patients with T2D. Overall, the majority of the patients preferred a product with attribute levels reflecting the semaglutide 0.50 mg profile, with a known CV risk reduction benefit and superior HbA1c reduction.FundingNovo Nordisk.
