Clinical outcomes in real-world patients with type 2 diabetes switching from first- to second-generation basal insulin analogues: Comparative effectiveness of insulin glargine 300 units/mL and insulin degludec in the DELIVER D+ cohort study.

ABSTRACT: To compare clinical outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) switching from insulin glargine 100 units/mL (Gla-100) or insulin detemir (IDet) to insulin glargine 300 units/mL (Gla-300) or insulin degludec (IDeg).We conducted a retrospective, observational study of electronic medical records for Gla-300/IDeg adult switchers (March 1, 2015 to January 31, 2017) with active records for 12-month baseline (glycated haemoglobin [HbA1c] used a 6-month baseline period) and 6-month follow-up periods. Gla-300 and IDeg switchers were propensity score-matched using baseline demographic and clinical characteristics. Outcomes were HbA1c change and goal attainment (among patients with HbA1c captured at follow-up), and hypoglycaemia with fixed follow-up (intention-to-treat [ITT]; 6 months) and variable follow-up (on-treatment [OT]; to discontinuation or 6 months).Each matched cohort comprised 1592 patients. The mean decrease in HbA1c and HbA1c goal (<7.0% [53 mmol/mol] and <8.0% [64 mmol/mol]) attainment rates were similar for Gla-300 (n = 742) and IDeg (n = 727) switchers. Using fixed follow-up (ITT method), hypoglycaemia incidence decreased significantly from baseline with Gla-300 (all hypoglycaemia: 15.6% to 12.7%; P = .006; hypoglycaemia associated with inpatient/emergency department [ED] encounter: 5.3% to 3.5%; P = .007), but not with IDeg. After adjusting for baseline hypoglycaemia, no significant differences in hypoglycaemia incidence and event rate were found at follow-up (ITT) for Gla-300 vs IDeg. Using variable follow-up (OT), hypoglycaemia incidence was similar in both groups, but Gla-300 switchers had a lower inpatient/ED hypoglycaemia event rate at follow-up (adjusted rate ratio 0.56; P = .016).In a real-world setting, switching from Gla-100 or IDet to Gla-300 or IDeg was associated with similar improvements in glycaemic control and hypoglycaemia in adult patients with T2D.

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.
