Randomized Study Comparing Vildagliptin vs Glibenclamide on Glucose Variability and Endothelial Function in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Hypertension.

ABSTRACT: Background:Glucose variability (GV) is considered an important factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). High GV causes endothelial dysfunction and increased oxidative stress. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors may improve endothelial function and decrease GV. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of vildagliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor, compared with glibenclamide in GV and endothelial function in patients with T2DM and arterial hypertension. Methods:This is a prospective, randomized, open and drug-controlled study. Fifty patients older than 35 years with T2DM and hypertension without CVD were randomized to receive vildagliptin (n=25) or glibenclamide (n=25), both in added-on metformin. Laboratory tests and analysis of endothelial function were performed before and 12 weeks after treatment. Endothelial function, defined by reactive hyperemia index (RHI), was analyzed by peripheral artery tonometry (endo-PAT2000). GV was evaluated by capillary glucose with intermittent monitoring device, six measurements per day, for three days, before and after treatment. The median of standard deviation (SD) of mean blood glucose (MBG) was used to evaluate GV. Results:GV decreased in the vildagliptin group (35.2 to 30.7, P=0.037) but did not change with glibenclamide (37.6 to 37.5, P=0.765). Glycated hemoglobin was similar in both groups. MBG decreased only in glibenclamide group, without difference with vildagliptin group (P=0.374). There were no changes in the RHI in both groups and there was no correlation between GV and RHI (P=0.658). Conclusion:Vildagliptin reduces GV; however, the action on endothelial function was not demonstrated. In addition, there was no correlation between GV and endothelial function.

Project description:Cardiovascular disease, endothelial dysfunction, and oxidative stress are common complications among patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). In addition to the average blood glucose concentration, glycemic variability may be an important factor for the development of chronic diabetes complications. Patients with T2DM are treated with various types of oral glucose-lowering drugs. Exercise is considered to benefit the health of both healthy and unhealthy individuals, which has been confirmed by a number of scientific research studies in which the participants' health improved. Our general aim in this study will be to evaluate glucose variability after submaximal exercise test in patients receiving treatment with either vildagliptin or glibenclamide. The specific aims of this study are to evaluate the oxidative stress, endothelial function, and metabolic and cardiovascular responses to exercise under treatment with vildagliptin or glibenclamide. All these responses are important in patients with T2DM.This study is a PROBE (Prospective, Randomized, Open-label, Blinded-Endpoint) design clinical trial. The estimated sample needed is 20 patients with T2DM. In addition to the routine treatment (metformin), patients will receive a second drug orally for 12 weeks: the METV group will receive metformin plus vildagliptin (50 mg twice daily), and the METG group will receive metformin plus glibenclamide (5 to 10 mg twice daily.). Before and after intervention, evaluation of glycemic variability, endothelial function, oxidative stress, and metabolic and cardiovascular response will be performed at rest, during and after a submaximal exercise test (30 minutes, with an intensity based at 10% under the heart rate at the second threshold).In addition to drug treatment, exercise is recommended for treatment of glycemic control in patients with T2DM, especially for its beneficial effects on blood glucose and HbA1c. Few studies have determined the effects of the association between exercise and oral glucose-lowering drugs. The study will be conducted to assess the metabolic and cardiovascular responses at rest, and during and after submaximal exercise in patients receiving one of two oral glucose-lowering drugs (vildagliptin or glibenclamide).ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01867502 study release date: May-17-2013.
