Impact of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors on kidney outcomes in type 2 diabetes: A tertiary center experience. J Family Community Med 2023; 30:267-272. [PMID: 38044971 PMCID: PMC10688587 DOI: 10.4103/jfcm.jfcm_111_23] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2023] [Revised: 07/12/2023] [Accepted: 08/05/2023] [Indexed: 12/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a complication of chronic hyperglycemia associated with diabetes mellitus (DM). Several studies have demonstrated the positive impact of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors on kidney outcomes. The objective of the study was to evaluate the effects of dapagliflozin, an SGLT2 inhibitor, on kidney outcomes in Saudi patients with type 2 DM. MATERIALS AND METHODS Study included all Saudi patients with type 2 DM who visited our center from August 1, 2021, to July 31, 2022, and had been on dapagliflozin for at least 3 months. Data was abstracted through chart review for all patients included in the study. Paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test were used to compare the results before and after treatment for continuous variables and the McNemar test was used to compare the results for categorical data. RESULTS Study included 184 Saudi patients with type 2 diabetes with a mean age of 61.32 years (SD=9.37). Dapagliflozin 10 mg/day significantly reduced hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) from a mean (SD) of 9.00 to 8.40 (P < 0.001). Among a subgroup of patients with significant proteinuria (n = 83), dapagliflozin significantly reduced ACR from a median of 93.1 to 64.9 mg/g (P = 0.001). Following treatment, the estimated glomerular filtration rate improved from a mean of 69.83 to 71.68 mL/min and the mean arterial pressure (MAP) fell from 90.03 to 89.06 mmHg, both were not statistically significant. Despite a statistically insignificant increase in the episodes of urinary tract infections (UTIs), the hospitalization rate declined. No episodes of amputations or ketoacidosis occurred during the study period. CONCLUSION SGLT2 inhibitors had beneficial effects among Saudi patients with type 2 diabetes by improving diabetic control and lowering proteinuria. Dapagliflozin did not result in significant harm, including UTIs, amputations, and ketoacidosis.

Renoprotective Effect of Thai Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Treated with SGLT-2 Inhibitors versus DPP-4 Inhibitors: A Real-World Observational Study. Adv Pharmacol Pharm Sci 2023; 2023:5581417. [PMID: 37223658 PMCID: PMC10202602 DOI: 10.1155/2023/5581417] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2023] [Revised: 04/01/2023] [Accepted: 05/08/2023] [Indexed: 05/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Recently, there is a lack of studies comparing the renoprotective effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors. This study therefore aimed to investigate the renoprotective effects of SGLT-2 inhibitors and DPP-4 inhibitors on Thai patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods Patient medication records of all patients who used those two antidiabetic classes at Fort Wachirawut Hospital were reviewed. Renal function tests, blood glucose levels, and other baseline characteristics were collected. Continuous variables were compared within the group using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test and between groups using the Mann-Whitney U test. Results There were 388 and 691 patients with SGLT-2 inhibitors and DPP-4 inhibitors, respectively. The mean estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of the SGLT-2 inhibitor group was significantly lower from baseline at 18 months of treatment, as well as the DPP-4 inhibitor group. However, the trend of eGFR reduction in patients with baseline eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 was smaller than those with baseline eGFR ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m2. In addition, the fasting blood sugar and haemoglobin A1c levels significantly decreased from baseline in both the groups. Conclusions Both SGLT-2 inhibitors and DPP-4 inhibitors showed the same trends of eGFR reductions from baseline in Thai patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, SGLT-2 inhibitors should be considered in patients with impaired renal function rather than in all T2DM patients.

Abstract
This meta-analysis was performed to compare the influence of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) on the efficacy and safety of elderly patients with type 2 diabetes with the young ones. PubMed, Medline, Web of Science, EMbase, and Cochrane Library were searched for literature published before March 2020 to identify studies comparing efficacy and safety of SGLT2i in elderly diabetes patients (≥65 years) and young controls (<65 years). A fixed or random-effect model was used to calculate the summary standard means difference and odds ratios. A total of 13 articles with data for 86,433 participants were included. Old patients receiving SGLT2i had a smaller reduction in hemoglobin A1c (SMD = -0.07, 95% CI -0.14 to -0.00, p = 0.044) than young ones. They had higher incidence of serious adverse events (SAEs) (OR 1.78, 95% CI 1.25-2.55, p = 0.001), AE leading to discontinuation (OR 2.34, 95%CI 1.53-3.59, p = 0.000), volume depletion (OR 2.80, 95% CI 1.82-4.32, p = 0.000) , and urinary tract infections (OR 1.37, 95% CI 1.18-1.60, p = 0.000), and renal function impairment (OR 2.61, 95% CI 1.78-3.81, p = 0.000) than young patients, and there was a opposite result in genital mycotic infections (OR 0.69, 95% CI 0.55-0.87, p = 0.002). No significant differences were recorded in the reduction of fasting blood glucose, blood pressure, body weight, and in incidence of overall AEs and fracture. In summary, relatively satisfying efficacy was observed in the elderly patients receiving SGLT2i. Although some AEs were more prevalent among older patients, the majority of them were generally mild.

Abstract
Aims/Introduction We previously reported that sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) treatment was associated with an improvement of the albumin‐to‐creatinine ratio in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease. The present study clarified how concomitant insulin treatment (IT) with SGLT2i therapy influences the renal composite outcome (RCO). Materials and Methods We retrospectively evaluated 624 Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease who underwent SGLT2i treatment. The renal composite outcome was set as progression of the stage of albuminuria or a ≥15% decrease in the estimated glomerular filtration rate per year. We developed a cohort model of patients managed with and without IT (Ins [+], Ins [−]) using propensity score matching methods. Furthermore, all patients in our study population were stratified into quintiles according to their propensity score. Results The incidence of the RCO was in Ins (+) patients significantly higher than that in Ins (−) (P = 0.033). The estimated hazard ratio for the RCO was 1.55 (P = 0.035) in Ins (+) patients. The change in the estimated glomerular filtration rate and albumin‐to‐creatinine ratio in the groups was not statistically significant. The analysis, which was based on the quintiles, showed a statistically significant difference between the Ins (+) and Ins (−) groups (P = 0.01); the odds ratio for the RCO in patients managed with IT was 2.20 (P = 0.01). Conclusions Concomitant administration of IT with SGLT2is influenced the RCO in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease. We might need to consider the influence of concomitant agents on the renoprotective effects of SGLT2i therapy.

Abstract
Imeglimin is an orally administered first-in-class drug to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and is mainly excreted unchanged by the kidneys. The present study aimed to define the pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics of imeglimin using population PK analysis and to determine the optimal dosing regimen for Japanese patients with T2DM and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Imeglimin plasma concentrations in Japanese and Western healthy volunteers, and patients with T2DM, including patients with mild to severe CKD with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) > 14 mL/min/1.73 m2 were included in a population PK analysis. Pharmacokinetic simulations were conducted using a population PK model, and the area under concentration-time curve (AUC) was extrapolated with power regression analysis to lower eGFR. The influence of eGFR, weight, and age on apparent clearance and of dose on relative bioavailability were quantified by population PK analysis. Simulations and extrapolation revealed that the recommended dosing regimen based on the AUC was 500 mg twice daily (b.i.d.) for patients with eGFR 15-45 mL/min/1.73 m2 , and 500 mg with a longer dosing interval was suggested for those with eGFR < 15. Simulations revealed that differences in plasma AUCs between Japanese and Western patients at the same dose were mainly driven by a difference in the eGFR and that the plasma AUC after 1,000 and 1,500 mg b.i.d. in Japanese and Western patients, respectively, was comparable in the phase IIb studies. These results indicate suitable dosages of imeglimin in the clinical setting of T2DM with renal impairment.

Abstract
Since the introduction of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, the aim of this therapy has expanded from being solely a glucose-lowering treatment into also being organ protective even in people without diabetes. In this review, we present this evolution of the treatment principle, from early studies over randomized controlled trials. We discuss available real-world evidence and summarize a number of recent post hoc analyses from the randomized controlled trials with kidney end points. As the use of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors becomes more widespread, new questions arise regarding initiation and follow-up, which we try to answer by providing the currently available data. For translation of study results to global effects, implementation becomes important. As is often the case, this does not happen without barriers, which must be addressed and handled. Finally, future studies and populations are discussed because it may well be that sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibition are expanding into further areas.

Abstract
Aims/Introduction Large‐scale clinical trials have reported that, in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor treatment affords favorable renal outcomes; the underlying mechanisms, however, remain unclear. Thus, this study investigated how SGLT2 inhibitor‐induced changes in the mean arterial pressure (MAP; denoted as ΔMAP) are associated with renal outcomes in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Materials and Methods We retrospectively assessed the data of 624 Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with CKD who had been using SGLT2 inhibitors for >1 year. For propensity score matching (1:1 nearest neighbor match, with caliper value = 0.053, no replacement), patients were categorized into two groups based on the ΔMAP (>−4 mmHg [n = 329] and ≤−4.0 mmHg [n = 295]). Composite albuminuria progression or a ≥15% annual reduction in the estimated glomerular filtration rate was regarded as the end‐point. Results Per group, 173 propensity‐matched patients were compared. Patients with ΔMAP ≤−4 mmHg had a significantly lower incidence of composite renal outcomes than those with ΔMAP ≥−4 mmHg (5.8% [n = 10] vs 15.6% [n = 27], P = 0.003). Although the between‐group differences in the estimated glomerular filtration rates were non‐significant, patients with a ΔMAP ≤−4 mmHg had significantly larger reductions in the logarithmic urine albumin‐to‐creatinine ratio (P = 0.005). Conclusions The degree of blood pressure reduction after SGLT2 inhibitor treatment influenced renal composite outcomes in Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with CKD, confirming the importance of blood pressure management in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with CKD, even when they are under SGLT2 inhibitor treatment.

Abstract
Aim: Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) provide renal protection in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The aim of this study was to elucidate the renal effects of long-term use of six types of SGLT2is in Japanese patients with T2DM and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Materials and Methods: The Kanagawa Physicians Association maintains a registry of patients who visit their 31 clinics. We retrieved clinical data of patients with T2DM and CKD who were prescribed with SGLT2is for >1 year. Results: A total of 763 patients with a median treatment duration of 33 months were included. The logarithmic value of urine albumin-creatinine ratio (LNACR) decreased significantly from 1.60 ± 0.65 to 1.51 ± 0.67. The multiple linear regression analysis revealed that the LNACR at the initiation of treatment, change in (Δ) diastolic blood pressure, and Δ hemoglobin A1c were independently correlated with ΔLNACR (P < 0.001). The decrease in the LNACR was significantly smaller in the patients with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) [mL/(min ·1.73 m2)] of <60 (P < 0.05). The eGFR decreased from 77.4 ± 22.3 to 72.7 ± 22.5 mL/(min ·1.73 m2) (P < 0.001). The multiple linear regression analysis showed that the LNACR at the initiation of treatment, Δbody weight at the previous survey, ΔeGFR at the previous survey, and the eGFR at the initiation of treatment correlated independently with ΔeGFR during the maintenance period (P < 0.001). Greater changes in the eGFR during the maintenance period were observed in the patients with macroalbuminuria or eGFR of <60 (P < 0.01). Conclusions: The study confirmed that the long-term use of six types of SGLT2i improved the albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR), although the eGFR gradually decreased during the treatment. The change in the ACR was significantly smaller in the patients with eGFR of <60 mL/(min ·1.73 m2) than in those with eGFR of >60 mL/(min ·1.73 m2). However, this was a retrospective observational study; further studies are needed to formulate final conclusions.

Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) improve renal outcome in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, but the mechanism is not fully understood. The aim of this retrospective study was to assess the association of achieved blood pressure with renal outcomes in Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with chronic kidney disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS We assessed 624 Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with chronic kidney disease taking SGLT2i for >1 year. The patients were classified as those with post-treatment mean arterial pressure (MAP) of ≥92 mmHg (n = 344) and those with MAP of <92 mmHg (n = 280) for propensity score matching (1:1 nearest neighbor match with 0.04 of caliper value and no replacement). The end-point was a composite of progression of albuminuria or a decrease in the estimated glomerular filtration rate by ≥15% per year. RESULTS By propensity score matching, a matched cohort model was constructed, including 201 patients in each group. The incidence of renal composite outcome was significantly lower among patients with MAP of <92 mmHg than among patients with MAP of ≥92 mmHg (n = 11 [6%] vs n = 26 [13%], respectively, P = 0.001). The change in estimated glomerular filtration rate was similar in the two groups; however, the change in the albumin-to-creatinine ratio was significantly larger in patients with MAP of <92 mmHg. CONCLUSIONS In Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with chronic kidney disease, blood pressure after SGLT2i administration influences the renal composite outcome. Blood pressure management is important, even during treatment with SGLT2i.

The influence of long-term administration of SGLT2 inhibitors on blood pressure at the office and at home in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease. J Clin Hypertens (Greenwich) 2020; 22:2306-2314.

Abstract
The decrease in blood pressure is thought to play an important role for the renoprotective effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors in patients with diabetes mellitus. However, their influence on blood pressure at home has not been well studied. The aim of this study is to clarify how long-term use of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors influence on blood pressure both at the office and at home, and the kidney function. We retrospectively analyzed 102 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease to whom sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors were administered for more than 1 year, and whose blood pressure were monitored both at the office and at home. The blood pressure at the office and at home significantly decreased, and there was a significant positive correlation between both blood pressure values. Controlled, white-coat, and sustained hypertension were observed in 9.8%, 14.7%, and 55.9% of the patients at the beginning of the treatment, which changed to 16.7%, 15.7%, and 48.0% at the time of the survey, however, the ratio of masked hypertension was not changed (19.6%). The cutoff value of mean arterial pressure at home after treatment for the improvement of urine albumin to creatinine ratio was 92.0 mm Hg, with 54.1% of sensitivity and 60.0% of specificity. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors can be useful for the strict management of blood pressures both at the office and at home. The decrease in blood pressure at home by this treatment might be related to the improvement of diabetic nephropathy.

Sridhar VS, Rahman HU, Cherney DZI. What have we learned about renal protection from the cardiovascular outcome trials and observational analyses with SGLT2 inhibitors? Diabetes Obes Metab 2020; 22 Suppl 1:55-68. [PMID: 32267075 DOI: 10.1111/dom.13965] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2019] [Revised: 01/08/2020] [Accepted: 01/09/2020] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
Over the past 5 years, sodium-glucose cotransport 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have been increasingly regarded as glycaemic agents with cardiovascular (CV) and renal protective effects. The CV benefits of SGLT2 inhibitors have been well established in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and a range of CV comorbidities at baseline. Subsequently, the renal benefits of SGLT2 inhibitors were established in the CREDENCE trial, a dedicated renal outcome trial where canagliflozin reduced the primary composite renal outcome by 30%. In light of these trials, clinical practice guidelines have rapidly evolved, recommending the use of SGLT2 inhibitors as renal and cardioprotective agents in appropriate patient populations. Accordingly, it is important to have an in-depth understanding of the evidence underlying the use of SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with T2D based on published clinical trials and real-world evidence (RWE) studies, as well as information related to potential safety concerns. To accomplish this, we reviewed the evidence for renal protection and safety with SGLT2 inhibitors in the EMPA-REG OUTCOME, CANVAS Program and DECLARE-TIMI 58 CV safety trials, and in the growing body of evidence emerging from real-world studies. This body of work has shown that SGLT2 inhibitors reduce the risk of surrogate renal endpoints such as albuminuria and mitigate the risk of hard renal endpoints including doubling of serum creatinine and end-stage kidney disease in patients with T2D.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain the leading cause of death in the world and in most developed countries. Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) suffer from both microvascular and macrovascular diseases and therefore have higher rates of morbidity and mortality compared to those without T2DM. If current trends continue, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 1 in 3 Americans will have T2DM by year 2050. As a consequence of the controversy surrounding rosiglitazone and the increasing prevalence of diabetes and CVDs, in 2008 the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) established new expectations for the evaluation of new antidiabetic agents, advising for pre and, in some cases, post-marketing data on major cardiovascular events. As a direct consequence, there has been a paradigm shift in new antidiabetic agents that has given birth to the recently published American Diabetes Association/European Association for the Study of Diabetes consensus statement recommending sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and glucagon like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) in patients with T2DM and established CVD. As a result of over a decade of randomized placebo controlled cardiovascular outcome trials, the aforementioned drugs have received FDA approval for risk reduction of cardiovascular (CV) events in patients with T2DM and established CV disease. SGLT2i have been shown to have a stronger benefit in patients with congestive heart failure and diabetic kidney disease when compared to their GLP-1RA counterparts. These benefits are not withstanding additional considerations such as cost and the multiple FDA Black Box warnings. This topic is currently an emerging research area and this mini-review paper examines the role of these two novel classes of drugs in patients with T2DM with both confirmed, and at risk for, CVD.

Relation between Blood Pressure Management and Renal Effects of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors in Diabetic Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease. J Diabetes Res 2019; 2019:9415313. [PMID: 31781668 PMCID: PMC6875192 DOI: 10.1155/2019/9415313] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2019] [Revised: 05/15/2019] [Accepted: 08/26/2019] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
AIM The renoprotective effect of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors is thought to be due, at least in part, to a decrease in blood pressure. The aim of this study was to determine the renal effects of these inhibitors in low blood pressure patients and the dependence of such effect on blood pressure management status. METHODS The subjects of this retrospective study were 740 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease who had been managed at the clinical facilities of the Kanagawa Physicians Association. Data on blood pressure management status and urinary albumin-creatinine ratio were analyzed before and after treatment. RESULTS Changes in the logarithmic value of urinary albumin-creatinine ratio in 327 patients with blood pressure < 130/80 mmHg at the initiation of treatment and in 413 patients with BP above 130/80 mmHg were -0.13 ± 1.05 and -0.24 ± 0.97, respectively. However, there was no significant difference between the two groups by analysis of covariance models after adjustment of the logarithmic value of urinary albumin-creatinine ratio at initiation of treatment. Changes in the logarithmic value of urinary albumin-creatinine ratio in patients with mean blood pressure of <102 mmHg (n = 537) and those with ≥102 mmHg (n = 203) at the time of the survey were -0.25 ± 1.02 and -0.03 ± 0.97, respectively, and the difference was significant in analysis of covariance models even after adjustment for the logarithmic value of urinary albumin-creatinine ratio at initiation of treatment (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Our results confirmed that blood pressure management status after treatment with SGLT2 inhibitors influences the extent of change in urinary albumin-creatinine ratio. Stricter blood pressure management is needed to allow the renoprotective effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors.
