Insulin dose reduction in dapagliflozin combination therapy for type 1 diabetes mellitus: the RISING-STAR study.

ABSTRACT: To clarify the frequency of hypoglycemia in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus receiving dapagliflozin combination therapy to reduce their basal insulin dose. Sixty subjects were assigned to two groups according to their basal insulin-to-total daily dose (TDD) ratio: group A (basal insulin/TDD <40%) and group B (≥40%). Reduction of the basal insulin dose was instituted in group B, but not in group A. The number of hypoglycemic events per day and ketosis frequency were the primary and secondary endpoints, respectively. The hypoglycemia frequency before and after the intervention was 0.23 and 0.26 times/day in group A and 0.19 and 0.23 times/day in group B, respectively, with no significant difference between the groups. The total insulin dose reduction was approximately 10% in both groups. Ketosis frequency increased significantly after the intervention (from 0.013 to 0.086 times/day in group A and 0.013 to 0.059 times/day in group B). Time-in-range, mean amplitude of glycemic excursion, and glycated hemoglobin A1c improved in both groups. No significant difference in hypoglycemia frequency was observed between patients with and without reduction of the basal insulin dose. The combination therapy improved glycemic control and patient satisfaction regarding hyperglycemia. Nevertheless, adequate attention to ketosis is crucial.

Project description:Aims/hypothesisPeople with diabetes have an increased cardiovascular risk with an accelerated development of atherosclerosis and an elevated mortality rate after myocardial infarction. Therefore, cardioprotective effects of glucose-lowering therapies are of major importance for the pharmacotherapy of individuals with type 2 diabetes. For sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is), in addition to a reduction in blood glucose, beneficial effects on atherosclerosis, obesity, renal function and blood pressure have been observed. Recent results showed a reduced risk of worsening heart failure and cardiovascular deaths under dapagliflozin treatment irrespective of the diabetic state. However, the underlying mechanisms are yet unknown. Platelets are known drivers of atherosclerosis and atherothrombosis and disturbed platelet activation has also been suggested to occur in type 2 diabetes. Therefore, the present study investigates the impact of the SGLT2i dapagliflozin on the interplay between platelets and inflammation in atherogenesis.MethodsMale, 8-week-old LDL-receptor-deficient (Ldlr-/-) mice received a high-fat, high-sucrose diabetogenic diet supplemented without (control) or with dapagliflozin (5 mg/kg body weight per day) for two time periods: 8 and 25 weeks. In a first translational approach, eight healthy volunteers received 10 mg dapagliflozin/day for 4 weeks.ResultsDapagliflozin treatment ameliorated atherosclerotic lesion development, reduced circulating platelet-leucocyte aggregates (glycoprotein [GP]Ib+CD45+: 29.40 ± 5.94 vs 17.00 ± 5.69 cells, p < 0.01; GPIb+lymphocyte antigen 6 complex, locus G+ (Ly6G): 8.00 ± 2.45 vs 4.33 ± 1.75 cells, p < 0.05) and decreased aortic macrophage infiltration (1.31 ± 0.62 vs 0.70 ± 0.58 ×103 cells/aorta, p < 0.01). Deeper analysis revealed that dapagliflozin decreased activated CD62P-positive platelets in Ldlr-/- mice fed a diabetogenic diet (3.78 ± 1.20% vs 2.83 ± 1.06%, p < 0.01) without affecting bleeding time (85.29 ± 37.27 vs 89.25 ± 16.26 s, p = 0.78). While blood glucose was only moderately affected, dapagliflozin further reduced endogenous thrombin generation (581.4 ± 194.6 nmol/l × min) × 10-9 thrombin vs 254.1 ± 106.4 (nmol/l × min) × 10-9 thrombin), thereby decreasing one of the most important platelet activators. We observed a direct inhibitory effect of dapagliflozin on isolated platelets. In addition, dapagliflozin increased HDL-cholesterol levels. Importantly, higher HDL-cholesterol levels (1.70 ± 0.58 vs 3.15 ± 1.67 mmol/l, p < 0.01) likely contribute to dapagliflozin-mediated inhibition of platelet activation and thrombin generation. Accordingly, in line with the results in mice, treatment with dapagliflozin lowered CD62P-positive platelet counts in humans after stimulation by collagen-related peptide (CRP; 88.13 ± 5.37% of platelets vs 77.59 ± 10.70%, p < 0.05) or thrombin receptor activator peptide-6 (TRAP-6; 44.23 ± 15.54% vs 28.96 ± 11.41%, p < 0.01) without affecting haemostasis.Conclusions/interpretationWe demonstrate that dapagliflozin-mediated atheroprotection in mice is driven by elevated HDL-cholesterol and ameliorated thrombin-platelet-mediated inflammation without interfering with haemostasis. This glucose-independent mechanism likely contributes to dapagliflozin's beneficial cardiovascular risk profile.

Project description:ObjectiveTo update clinicians with an overview of empagliflozin for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), with focus on use in combination regimens.MethodsKeyword searches were conducted in the Medline database to identify literature reporting clinical trials of at least 12 weeks' duration using empagliflozin treatment in patients with T2DM.ResultsWhen given as monotherapy or in combination therapy (as add-on or single-pill therapy) with metformin, pioglitazone, sulfonylurea, linagliptin, and insulin, empagliflozin produced clinically meaningful reductions in glycated hemoglobin levels, plasma glucose concentrations, bodyweight, and blood pressure. These changes were sustained during long-term treatment. In a dedicated cardiovascular event trial, empagliflozin on top of standard of care demonstrated a significant reduction in the risk of cardiovascular mortality and all-cause mortality. Across the clinical trials, empagliflozin combination therapies were well tolerated, and empagliflozin used alone was not associated with increased risk of hypoglycemia versus placebo. Indeed, the combination of empagliflozin and metformin had a significantly reduced rate of hypoglycemia compared with the combination of metformin and a sulfonylurea. On the other hand, empagliflozin treatment did have increased risk of genital infections compared with placebo. In clinical trials to date, diabetic ketoacidosis was not seen more frequently with empagliflozin than with placebo, but physicians should be alert to the possibility of this rare event.ConclusionEmpagliflozin has the potential to make an important contribution to the treatment of patients with T2DM. In some patients, empagliflozin may be used as monotherapy, but it is most likely to be used in combination with other therapies. Given the reduced risk of mortality seen when empagliflozin was added to standard care in patients at high cardiovascular risk, as well as the lack of alternative options for patients at lower cardiovascular risk, empagliflozin may be added to ongoing regimens for a significant proportion of patients.
