A randomized trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of insulin glargine in hyperglycemic acute stroke patients receiving intensive care.

ABSTRACT: This pilot, randomized, open-label controlled study compared the basal-bolus regimens of insulin glargine (IG) and neutral protamine Hagedorn (NPH) insulin in stroke patients with hyperglycemia receiving intensive care. The study recruited acute stroke patients requiring intensive care within 72 h (h) of onset and had blood glucose > 200 mg/dL. 50 patients received IG (n = 26) or NPH (n = 24) with added short-acting prandial regular insulin over a 72-h period. The primary end point was the percentage of glucose within 80-180 mg/dL assessed through continuous glucose monitoring. The baseline characteristics were comparable, except the IG had higher glucose pre-randomization than the NPH (290.69 ± 82.31 vs. 246.04 ± 41.76 mg/dL, P = 0.021). The percentage of time with glucose between 80 and 180 mg/dL was 45.88 ± 27.04% in the IG and 53.56 ± 22.89% in the NPH (P = 0.341) and the percentage of glucose reduction was 31.47 ± 17.52% in the IG and 27.28 ± 14.56% in the NPH (P = 0.374). The percentage of time with glucose < 60 mg/dL was 0.14 ± 0.49% in the IG and 0.47 ± 1.74% in the NPH. Poststroke outcomes were not significantly different. In conclusion, IG is safe and equally effective as an NPH-based basal-bolus regimen for acute stroke patients with hyperglycemia receiving intensive care.Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02607943.

Project description:Hyperglycemia during hyper-CVAD (fractionated cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, and dexamethasone alternating with methotrexate and high-dose cytarabine, with methylprednisolone premedication) chemotherapy is associated with poor outcomes of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). To examine whether intensive insulin therapy could improve outcomes, a randomized trial was conducted that compared glargine plus aspart vs. conventional therapy. Intensive insulin did not improve ALL clinical outcomes despite improved glycemic control. Secondary analysis suggests that the choice of antidiabetic pharmacotherapy may influence ALL outcomes.Hyperglycemia during hyper-CVAD (fractionated cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, and dexamethasone alternating with methotrexate and high-dose cytarabine, with methylprednisolone premedication) chemotherapy is associated with poor outcomes of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).To examine whether an intensive insulin regimen could improve outcomes compared with conventional antidiabetic pharmacotherapy, a randomized trial was conducted that compared glargine plus aspart vs. conventional therapy (control). Between April 2004 and July 2008, 52 patients newly diagnosed with ALL, Burkitt lymphoma, or lymphoblastic lymphoma who were on hyper-CVAD in the inpatient setting and had a random serum glucose level >180 mg/dL on ?2 occasions during chemotherapy were enrolled.The trial was terminated early due to futility regarding ALL clinical outcomes despite improved glycemic control. Secondary analysis revealed that molar insulin-to-C-peptide ratio (I/C) > 0.175 (a surrogate measure of exogenous insulin usage) was associated with decreased overall survival, complete remission duration and progression-free survival (PFS), whereas metformin and/or thiazolidinedione usage were associated with increased PFS. In multivariate analyses, factors that significantly predicted short overall survival included age ? 60 years (P = .0002), I/C ? 0.175 (P = .0016), and average glucose level ? 180 mg/dL (P = .0236). Factors that significantly predicted short PFS included age ? 60 years (P = .0008), I/C ? 0.175 (P = .0002), high systemic risk (P = .0173) and average glucose level ? 180 mg/dL (P = .0249). I/C ? 0.175 was the only significant (P = .0042) factor that predicted short complete remission duration.A glargine-plus-aspart intensive insulin regimen did not improve ALL outcomes in patients with hyperglycemia. Exogenous insulin may be associated with poor outcomes, whereas metformin and thiazolidinediones may be associated with improved outcomes. Analysis of these results suggests that the choice of antidiabetic pharmacotherapy may influence ALL outcomes.

Project description: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.
