The efficacy and safety of beinaglutide alone or in combination with insulin glargine in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who are inadequately controlled with oral antihyperglycemic therapy: A multicenter, open-label, randomized trial. J Diabetes 2023; 16:e13483. [PMID: 37864379 PMCID: PMC10850920 DOI: 10.1111/1753-0407.13483] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2023] [Revised: 09/03/2023] [Accepted: 09/24/2023] [Indexed: 10/22/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND To compare glycemic control in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) whose blood glucose levels were inadequately controlled with oral antidiabetic drugs after beinaglutide alone or combined with insulin glargine (IGlar). METHODS In this 16-week multicenter, randomized clinical trial, 68 participants randomly received beinaglutide or IGlar for 8 weeks, then the two drugs in combination for 8 weeks. The primary outcomes were the proportion of individuals achieving their glycemic target and the change in glucose variability as measured with a continuous glucose monitoring system from baseline to 8 and 16 weeks. RESULTS Both the beinaglutide and IGlar groups showed increased proportions achieving their glycemic target at 8 weeks, and the combination augmented the proportion reaching the glycated hemoglobin target from 25.42% at 8 weeks to 40.68% at 16 weeks. The beinaglutide group showed a significant reduction in body weight, body mass index, waist circumference, and systolic blood pressure. Beinaglutide elevated high-density lipoprotein cholesterol by 0.08 mmol/L (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.00-0.16), and diminished low-density lipoprotein cholesterol by 0.21 mmol/L (95% CI, 0.05-0.48), whereas IGlar showed no effect. Though IGlar was more efficient in lowering fasting plasma glucose than beinaglutide at comparable efficacies (to -1.57 mmol/L [95% CI, -2.60 to -0.54]), this difference was abolished in patients whose fasting C-peptide was ≥0.9 ng/mL. CONCLUSION Beinaglutide exhibited a favorable hypoglycemic effect on patients with T2DM, and in combination with IGlar, glucose level was further decreased. Low fasting C-peptide in patients may reduce the glycemic response to beinaglutide therapy. We recommend that C-peptide levels be evaluated when using or switching to the novel glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists beinaglutide. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03829891.

[PMID: 36922809 PMCID: PMC10018901 DOI: 10.1186/s12902-023-01300-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2022] [Accepted: 02/13/2023] [Indexed: 03/18/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The conclusion between Connecting peptide (C-peptide) and diabetic chronic complication was controversial. The purpose of this study is to explore the possible association between average C-peptide with diabetic retinopathy (DR) progression in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS This is a retro-prospective study. 622 patients with type 2 diabetes were included. DR was evaluated using non-mydriatic fundus photography and DR progression was defined as any deterioration of either eye. Fasting and postprandial c-peptide levels were assayed at baseline and follow-up period. Differences between continuous variables were compared using the Mann-Whitney U test; and categorical variables were analyzed by the chi-square test. Correlation between parameters and 30-minute postprandial C-peptide were determined by Spearman correlation test. The relationship between C-peptide and DR progression was evaluated by multivariable binary logistic regression. Two-tailed P-values < 0.05 were regarded as statistically significant. RESULTS DR was present in 162 (26.0%) patients at baseline, and 26.4% of patients were found progression of DR at follow-up. Patients with progression of DR had lower average levels of 30-minute postprandial C-peptide (2.01 ng/ml vs. 2.6 ng/ml, p = 0.015) and 120-minute postprandial C-peptide (3.17 ng/ml vs. 3.92 ng/ml, p < 0.029), as well as average increment of 30-minute (0.41 ng/ml vs. 0.64 ng/ml, p = 0.015) and 120-minute postprandial C-peptide (1.48 ng/ml vs. 1.93 ng/ml, p < 0.017), than those without DR aggravation. Multivariate logistic regression analysis determined that 30-minute postprandial C-peptide and its increment were related to reduced odds ratios for DR progression (odds ratios [OR] = 0.83 and 0.74, respectively). CONCLUSION Our results suggest that the Average 30-minute post-prandial C-peptide and increment were negatively correlated with DR progression, which further demonstrates the importance to preserve β-cell residual function in the prevention for DR progression.

Effectiveness and Safety of Once-Weekly Semaglutide in Japanese Patients with Type 2 Diabetes in Treatment Intensification: A Retrospective Observational Single-Center Study. Diabetes Ther 2022; 13:1779-1788. [PMID: 36006593 PMCID: PMC9500122 DOI: 10.1007/s13300-022-01313-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2022] [Accepted: 08/16/2022] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Once-weekly (OW) glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) semaglutide has been shown to have a more potent glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c)-lowering effect than other oral hypoglycemic agents and existing GLP-1RAs in global randomized controlled trials. The study aim was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of OW semaglutide in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in a real-world clinical setting and identify pre- and post-treatment predictors of good response. METHODS We investigated the change in HbA1c, percentage of patients achieving < 7% HbA1c, and factors contributing to the effect 6 months after OW semaglutide use in Japanese patients with T2DM. We also examined differences in effectiveness between patients with different backgrounds. RESULTS At baseline, the 77 patients had a mean baseline HbA1c of 8.1% ± 1.23%, 74% of the patients were injecting another GLP-1RA, and 42.9% of the patients were being treated with insulin. HbA1c decreased by 0.89% and by 0.66% in the other GLP-1RA users. The rate of achievement of < 7% HbA1c increased from 21% to 43%. There were no differences in effect by age, sex, or body mass index. Higher baseline HbA1c and shorter duration of diabetes were associated with greater HbA1c reduction. OW semaglutide was tolerable for the majority of our study population. CONCLUSION This study provided real-world evidence showing that OW semaglutide significantly reduced HbA1c in Japanese patients with T2DM who had inadequate HbA1c control.

Efficacy of liraglutide on glycemic endpoints in people of Western European and South Asian descent with T2DM using multiple daily insulin injections: results of the MAGNA VICTORIA studies. Acta Diabetol 2021; 58:485-493. [PMID: 33399989 DOI: 10.1007/s00592-020-01635-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2020] [Accepted: 11/04/2020] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
AIMS Data on the effect of liraglutide on glycemic endpoints in people with T2DM using multiple daily insulin injections (MDI) are scarce, especially in the context of ethnicity. METHODS This is a secondary analysis of the placebo-controlled randomized clinical "MAGNA VICTORIA" trials in Western European (WE) and South Asian (SA) people with T2DM. Participants had inadequate glycemic control despite using metformin and/or sulfonylurea derivatives and/or insulin. Participants were assigned to liraglutide (1.8 mg) or placebo for 6 months, in addition to standard care. The primary endpoint number of participants reaching target HbA1c was compared for liraglutide versus placebo in the complete dataset and MDI-treated participants using Chi-square test. Liraglutide's efficacy in WE and SA was compared using a generalized linear model. RESULTS Forty-five subjects were randomized to liraglutide and 51 to placebo. In each group, one participant did not complete the study. Liraglutide-treated patients reached target HbA1c more frequently: 23/45 (51%) vs 11/51 (22%), relative probability 2.4 (1.3-4.3), p = 0.002. Subgroup analysis in 43 MDI participants showed that the proportion reaching target HbA1c using liraglutide was significantly higher than in placebo: 9/22 (41%) vs 1/21 (5%), p = 0.005. There was no difference between WE and SA in terms of liraglutide efficacy (p = 0.18). CONCLUSIONS Liraglutide treatment resulted in increased chance of reaching target HbA1c as compared to placebo. Liraglutide efficacy was sustained in participants using MDI regimens and those of SA descent. Liraglutide should be considered for T2DM people with inadequate glycemic control despite MDI.
