Efficacy and Safety of Switching Patients Inadequately Controlled on Basal Insulin to Insulin Glargine 300 U/mL: The TRANSITION 2 Study.

ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION:This study aimed to determine, in close to real-life conditions, the efficacy and safety of switching from any basal insulin to insulin glargine 300 U/mL (Gla-300) in patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes (T2D). METHODS:This was an interventional, multicenter, single-arm, prospective study with a 24-week treatment phase. Adult patients with T2D treated with basal insulin with or without other antidiabetics, HbA1c > 7.5%, and fasting self-monitored blood glucose (F-SMBG) > 130 mg/dL (mean of three measures) at baseline were included. Insulin dose was titrated to reach F-SMBG 90-130 mg/dL. Efficacy and safety were assessed at 12 weeks (W12) and 24 weeks (W24). The main outcome parameter was HbA1c change between baseline and W24. Safety parameters included self-reported hypoglycemia (any type). Patients' satisfaction with the treatment was assessed by the Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (DTSQ). RESULTS:A total of 140 patients were included and 137 were treated. Mean HbA1c decreased from 8.64% at baseline to 8.14% at W12 (mean difference [95% CI] - 0.51% [- 0.64; - 0.38]) and 8.01% at W24 (- 0.64% [- 0.81; - 0.46]). Target F-SMBG was reached in 35.0% of the patients at W12 and 38.4% at W24. The percentages of patients reaching HbA1c levels < 7.0%, < 7.5%, and < 8.0% at W24 were 11.4%, 29.5%, and 50.8%, respectively, while only 31.6% had an HbA1c value < 8.0% at baseline. HbA1c reduction was greater in patients with higher baseline levels. During the treatment phase, 46.0% of the participants had at least one hypoglycemia event; 31.4% documented symptomatic hypoglycemia, 2.2% severe hypoglycemia, and 12.2% nocturnal hypoglycemia. Treatment satisfaction increased by 20% between baseline and W24. CONCLUSION:These data, derived from close to real-life practice in France, confirm the reassuring results of randomized trials on the efficacy and safety of Gla-300. TRIAL REGISTRATION:EudraCT number 2015-002416-33.

Project description:INTRODUCTION:OPTIMIZE evaluated the efficacy, safety and treatment satisfaction of insulin glargine 300 U/mL once daily (Gla-300 OD) in people with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) previously uncontrolled on basal insulin twice daily (BID) as part of basal-bolus therapy. METHODS:OPTIMIZE was a 28-week, prospective, interventional, single-arm phase 4 trial in adults with T1DM. At baseline, basal insulin BID treatment was switched to Gla-300 OD titrated to a fasting self-monitored blood glucose target of 4.4-7.2 mmol/L (80-130 mg/dL). The primary endpoint was the mean glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) change from baseline to week 24. Secondary endpoints included self-monitored blood glucose, fasting-plasma glucose, hypoglycaemia and patient-reported outcomes including the Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire status version (DTSQs). RESULTS:Switching to Gla-300 OD significantly improved mean HbA1c (8.54% at baseline and 8.27% at week 24 [last observation carried forward, N = 94, p < 0.0001]; mean difference 0.27% [95% CI 0.15, 0.40]). There was a statistically significant decrease in fasting self-monitored blood glucose during the study (analysis of variance for repeated measures, p = 0.014; N = 72). Eight-point self-monitored blood glucose was significantly improved between baseline and week 24 for post-breakfast (p = 0.009), post-dinner (p = 0.009) and bedtime (p = 0.049) values. The study did not allow for any significant effects on confirmed and/or severe hypoglycaemia at the ≤ 3.9 mmol/L [≤ 70 mg/dL] or < 3.0 mmol/L [< 54 mg/dL] blood glucose cut-offs to be observed. Statistically significant improvements were observed in DTSQs total scores from baseline (24.1) to week 24 (29.4, p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS:A basal-bolus regimen including Gla-300 OD was associated with improvements in HbA1c and treatment satisfaction in people with uncontrolled T1DM previously receiving basal-bolus insulin including a basal insulin BID analogue.

Project description:IntroductionThe efficacy and safety of switching to insulin glargine 300 U/mL (Gla-300) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) uncontrolled on basal insulin (BI) has been demonstrated in the North American and Western European populations; however, there is limited data from other geographical regions with different ethnicities. The ARTEMIS-DM study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Gla-300 in people with T2DM uncontrolled on BI from Asia, Latin America and Middle East Africa.MethodsThe ARTEMIS-DM was a 26-week, prospective, interventional, single-arm, phase IV study (NCT03760991). Adults with T2DM previously uncontrolled (glycated haemoglobin [HbA1c] 7.5-10%) on BI were switched to Gla-300. The primary endpoint was change in HbA1c from baseline to 26 weeks. Key secondary endpoints were changes in HbA1c (week 12), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), self-monitored plasma glucose (SMPG) and BI dose from baseline to week 26. The safety and tolerability of Gla-300 were also assessed.ResultsA total of 372 (50% male) participants were included, with mean (standard deviation [SD]) age 60.9 (10.0) years, duration of diabetes 13.11 (7.48) years and baseline HbA1c 8.67 (0.77)% (71.22 [8.44] mmol/mol). A total of 222 (59.7%) participants were using insulin glargine 100 U/mL and 107 (28.8%) were using neutral protamine Hagedorn insulin as previous BI. There were clinically significant reductions in mean HbA1c (- 0.82%; primary endpoint), FPG and SMPG levels at week 26. With a pre-defined titration algorithm, mean Gla-300 dose increased from 27.48 U (0.35 U/kg) at baseline to 39.01 U (0.50 U/kg) at week 26. Hypoglycaemia events occurred in 20.4% of the participants; 1 (0.3%) participant had a severe hypoglycaemia event.ConclusionIn people with T2DM uncontrolled on previous BI, switching to Gla-300 with optimal titration guided by an algorithm was associated with improved glycaemic control and low incidence of hypoglycaemia across multiple geographic regions.ClinicaltrialsGov identifierNCT03760991.

Project description:IntroductionFollowing pivotal trials, real-world evidence is important to assess the impact of new drugs in everyday clinical practice. The RESTORE-1 study aimed to compare effectiveness and safety of the second-generation basal insulins (2BI), i.e., insulin glargine 300 U/ml (Gla-300) vs. degludec 100 U/ml (IDeg-100), in type 1 diabetes (T1D).MethodsRetrospective, non-inferiority, multicenter study, based on electronic medical records. All patients switching to Gla-300 or IDeg-100 from first-generation basal insulins (1BI) were 1:1 propensity score matched (PSM). Changes during 6 months in HbA1c (primary endpoint), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), body weight, and insulin doses were assessed using linear mixed models for repeated measures. Incidence rates (IR) of hypoglycemic events were assessed.ResultsOverall, 19 centers provided data on 585 patients in each PSM cohort. For both groups, statistically significant reductions in HbA1c from baseline to 6 months were documented: - 0.20%; (95% CI - 0.32; - 0.08) in the Gla-300 group and - 0.14%; (95% CI - 0.24; - 0.04) in the IDeg-100 group. The non-inferiority of Gla-300 vs. IDeg-100 was confirmed (non-inferiority margin of 0.30%; upper 95% CI at 6 months, 0.09%). No statistically significant between-group differences emerged in FPG and body weight. Dose changes of basal and short-acting insulin were small in both groups, but higher in the Gla-300 group than in the Deg-100 group (p < 0.006). Incidence rates (IR) of hypoglycemia (blood glucose ≤ 70 mg/dl and < 54 mg/dl) during the 6-month follow-up by treatment were slightly lower in the Gla-300 group than in the Deg-100 group [IR ratios 0.82 (95% CI 0.55; 1.22) and 0.83; (95% CI 0.38; 1.83), respectively]. Hypoglycemic events (blood glucose < 54 mg/dl) decreased at 6 months in both groups (p = 0.01 for Gla-300 and p < 0.001 for IDeg-100). There were no severe hypoglycemic events for Gla-300 and seven events for IDeg-100 (p = 0.02).ConclusionsSwitching from 1BI to 2BI in adults with T1D was associated with similar improvements in glycemic control and overall significant decrease in hypoglycemia, with no severe events with Gla-300. Effectiveness of both insulins was limited by under-titration.
