Real-world safety and effectiveness of dapagliflozin in people living with type 1 diabetes in Spain: The Dapa-ON multicenter retrospective study

OBJECTIVE

To assess real-world safety and effectiveness of dapagliflozin in people living with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM).

METHODS

We conducted a multicenter retrospective study in Spain including data from 250 people living with T1DM receiving dapagliflozin as add-on therapy to insulin (80.8 % on-label use). The number of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) events was calculated over a 12-month follow-up (primary outcome). Changes in body weight, HbA1c, total daily insulin dose, and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) metrics from baseline (at dapagliflozin prescription) to 12 months were also evaluated.

RESULTS

A total of five DKA events (2.4 % [95 % CI 0.3;4.5] were reported in patients with a 12-month follow-up, n = 207): two events related to insulin pump malfunction, two events related to concomitant illnesses, and one event related to insulin dose omission. DKA events were more frequent among insulin pump users than among participants on multiple daily injections (7.7 % versus 1.2 %). Four of the reported DKA events occurred within the first six months after initiation of dapagliflozin. No deaths or persistent sequelae due to DKA were reported. No severe hypoglycemia episodes were reported. Significant reductions in mean body weight (-3.3 kg), HbA1c (-0.6 %), and total daily insulin dose (-8.6 %), P < 0.001, were observed 12 months after dapagliflozin prescription. Significant improvements in TIR (+9.3 %), TAR (-7.2 %), TBR (-2.5 %), and coefficient of variation (-5.1 %), P < 0.001, were also observed in the subgroup of patients with available CGM data. Finally, an improvement in urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) was found among participants with UACR ≥ 30 mg/g at baseline (median decrease of 99 mg/g in UACR, P = 0.001).

CONCLUSION

The use of dapagliflozin in people living with T1DM has an appropriate safety profile after careful selection of participants and implementation of strategies to reduce the risk of DKA (i.e., prescribed according to the recommendations of the European Medicines Agency), and also leads to clinical improvements in this population.

Ultrarapid Insulin Use Can Reduce Postprandial Hyperglycemia and Late Hypoglycemia, Even in Delayed Insulin Injections: A Connected Insulin Cap-Based Real-World Study

Objectives: Reaching optimal postprandial glucose dynamics is a daily challenge for people with type 1 diabetes (T1D). This study aimed to analyze the postprandial hyperglycemic excursion (PHEs) and late postprandial hypoglycemia (LPH) risk according to prandial insulin time and type. Research Design and Methods: Real-world, retrospective study in T1D using multiple daily injections (MDI) analyzing 5 h of paired continuous glucose monitoring and insulin injections data collected from the connected cap Insulclock®. Meal events were identified using the rate of change detection methodology. Postprandial glucometrics and LPH (glucose <70 mg/dL 2-5 h after a meal) were evaluated according to insulin injection time and rapid (RI) or ultrarapid analog, Fiasp® (URI), use. Results: Meal glycemic excursions (n = 2488), RI: 1211, 48.7%; UR: 1277, 51.3%, in 82 people were analyzed according to injection time around the PHE: -45 to -15 min; -15 to 0 min; and 0 to +45 min. In 63% of the meals, insulin was injected after the PHE started. Lower PHE was observed with URI versus RI (glucose peak-baseline; mg/dL; mean ± standard deviation): 106.7 ± 35.2 versus 111.2 ± 40.3 (P = 0.003), particularly in 0/+45 injections: 111.6 ± 40.2 versus 118.1 ± 43.3; (P = 0.002). One third (29.1%) of participants added a second (correction) injection. The use of URI and avoiding a second injection were independently associated with less LPH risk, even in delayed injections (0/+45), (-36%, odds ratio [OR] 0.641; confidence interval [CI]: 0.462-0.909; P = 0.012) and -56% (OR 0.641; CI: 0.462-0.909 P = 0.038), respectively. Conclusions: URI analog use as prandial insulin reduces postprandial hyper- and hypoglycemia, even in delayed injections.

SAT0075 ABATACEPT IN COMBINATION WITH METOTREXATE IN PATIENTS WITH RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS ASSOCIATED TO INTERSTITIAL LUNG DISEASE: NATIONAL MULTICENTER STUDY OF 263 PATIENTS

Background:

Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) is an extra-articular complication of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) that is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Conventional disease-modifying drugs (DMARDs) such as methotrexate (MTX) have been implicated in the development and exacerbation of a pre-existing ILD.

Objectives:

The aim of our study was to check the influence of combined MTX treatment in patients with RA-ILD treated with abatacept (ABA).

Methods:

National multicentre retrospective registry of 263 patients with RA-ILD treated with ABA. RA was diagnosed according to the ACR classification criteria of 1987 or by the EULAR/ACR criteria of 2010. ILD was diagnosed by high resolution computed tomography (HRCT). In this study we have done a subanalysis of the 46 patients treated with ABA in combination with MTX (ABA+MTX) vs. 217 patients treated with ABA in monotherapy or in combination with other synthetic DMARDs. Efficacy was evaluated according to the following parameters: a) Dyspnoea (MMRC) considering variations ≥ 1; b) Lung function test (LFT) considering variations ≥ 10% in FVC and a variation of DLCO ≥ 10%; c) Imaging test (HRCT) d) DAS28 score e) prednisone dose. Variables were collected at the beginning of the study and at months 3, 6, 12 and then every 12 months until a maximum of 60 months.

Results:

263 patients with ILD associated with RA were included in the study with mean age 64.64±10 years. RF or CCPA were positive in 235 (89.4%) and 233 (88.6%) cases, respectively, with a mean follow-up of 22.7±19.7 months. Baseline characteristics of both groups are shown in table 1, while data obtained during evolution of this complication are presented in Figure 1.

Conclusion:

Despite the baseline differences of both groups, the good evolution in the ABA+MTX subgroup suggests that this therapeutic strategy can be a safe combination for patients with RA-ILD.

SAT0035 RESPONSE TO ABATACEPT OF DIFFERENT PATTERNS OF INTERSTITIAL LUNG DISEASE IN RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS: NATIONAL MULTICENTER STUDY OF 263 PATIENTS

Background:

Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) is a severe extraarticular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In this line, several radiological patterns of RA-ILD have been described: i) usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP), ii) nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP), iii) obliterating bronchiolitis, iv) organized pneumonia and mixed patterns. Abatacept (ABA) could be an effective and safe option for patients with RA-ILD, although the response in the different radiological patterns is not well defined.

Objectives:

Our aim was to assess the response to ABA in different radiological patterns of ILD.

Methods:

Observational retrospective multicenter study of RA-ILD treated with ABA. ILD was diagnosed by HRCT and classified by radiological patterns in 3 different subgroups of RA-ILD: a) UIP, b) NSIP and c) “other”. ABA was used sc. or iv. at standard dose. We assessed: a) Dyspnoea (MMRC scale; significant variation ≥1); b) Respiratory function tests (significant changes ≥10% in FVC and DLCO); c) HRCT imaging; d) DAS28 e)prednisone dose.

Variables were collected at months 0, 3, 6, 12 months and subsequently every 12 months until a maximum of 60 months.

Results:

We included 263 patients: 106 UIP, 84 NSIP and 73 others (150 women / 113 men), mean age 64.64±10 years. Total patients positive for RF or CCPA were 235 (89.4%) and 233 (88.6%), respectively. In 26 out of 263 patients, the development of ILD was closely related to the administration of sDMARDs (MTX n = 11 and LFN n = 1) or bDMARDs (ETN n = 5, ADA n = 4, CZP n = 2 and IFX n = 3). Patient characteristics are shown in table 1. Figure 1 shows the evolution of the cases with available data after a mean follow-up of 22.7±19.7 months. Mean DLCO and FVC remained stable in the 3 groups without statistically significant changes, and all the groups showed a statistically significant reduction in DAS28 and prednisone dose.

Conclusion:

ABA could be a good choice of treatment in patients with RA-ILD independently of the radiological pattern of ILD.

OP0212 ABATACEPT IN INTERSTITIAL LUNG DISEASE ASSOCIATED WITH RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS. NATIONAL MULTICENTER STUDY OF 263 PATIENTS

Background:

Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) is a severe complication of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). Several conventional disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (cDMARDs) and biologic (b) DMARDs may induce or impaired ILD-RA. Abatacept (ABA) may be useful in ILD-RA (1).

Objectives:

To assess the efficacy and safety of ABA in a large series of ILD-RA for a long-term follow-up.

Methods:

Multicenter open-level study of ILD-RA treated with at least 1 dose of ABA. ILD was diagnosed by high-resolution computed tomography (HRTC). We study these outcomes: a) 1-point change Modied Medical Research Council (MMRC); b) forced vital capacity (FVC) and/or DLCO improvement or decline ≥10%; c) change in HRCT, d) change in DAS28. e) Prednisone dose. Values were collected at 0, 3, 6, 12 and then every 12 months.

Results:

We studied 263 patients (150 women/113 men) (mean age;64.6±10 years), with ILD-RA. At ABA-onset they were smokers or exsmoker (53.8%), positive APCC (88.6%), median [IQR] duration of ILD of 12 [3-41.25] months, mean DLCO (65.7±18.3) and FVC (85.9±21.8).

The ILD-pattern were usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) (40.3%), non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) (31.9%) and others (27.8%).

ABA was prescribed at standard subcutaneous (125 mg/w) in 196 (74.5%) or intravenously (10 mg/kg/4 w) in 67 (25.5%); in monotherapy (n=111) or combined with cDMARDs (n=152); especially leflunomide (n=55), MTX (n=46), or antimarials (n=21).

After a mean follow-up of 22.7±19.7 months most outcomes remain stable (Figure). Moreover, DAS28 improved from 4.5±1.5 to 3.1±1.3; prednisone dose reduced from a median 7.5 [5-10] to 5 mg [5-7.5] and retention rate was 76.4%. The main adverse effects were serious infections (n=28), neoplasia (n=3), serious infusion reaction (n=1) and myocardial infarction (n=1).

Conclusion:

ABA seems effective and relatively safe in ILD-RA.

Mediterranean Diet and Cardiodiabesity: A Systematic Review through Evidence-Based Answers to Key Clinical Questions

The Mediterranean Diet (MedDiet) has been promoted as a means of preventing and treating cardiodiabesity. The aim of this study was to answer a number of key clinical questions (CQs) about the role of the MedDiet in cardiodiabesity in order to provide a framework for the development of clinical practice guidelines. A systematic review was conducted to answer five CQs formulated using the Patient, Intervention, Comparison, and Outcome (PICO) criteria. Twenty articles published between September 2013 and July 2016 were included, adding to the 37 articles from the previous review. There is a high level of evidence showing that MedDiet adherence plays a role in the primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and improves health in overweight and obese patients. There is moderate-to-high evidence that the MedDiet prevents increases in weight and waist circumference in non-obese individuals, and improves metabolic syndrome (MetS) and reduces its incidence. Finally, there is moderate evidence that the MedDiet plays primary and secondary roles in the prevention of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The MedDiet is effective in preventing obesity and MetS in healthy and at-risk individuals, in reducing mortality risk in overweight or obese individuals, in decreasing the incidence of T2DM and CVD in healthy individuals, and in reducing symptom severity in individuals with T2DM or CVD.

Mediterranean diet and cardiodiabesity: a review

Cardiodiabesity has been used to define and describe the well-known relationship between type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), obesity, the metabolic syndrome (MetS) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). The objective of this study was to perform a scientific literature review with a systematic search to examine all the cardiovascular risk factors combined and their relationship with adherence to the Mediterranean Diet (MedDiet) pattern as primary prevention against cardiodiabesity in a holistic approach. Research was conducted using the PubMed database including clinical trials, cross-sectional and prospective cohort studies. Thirty-seven studies were reviewed: fourteen related to obesity, ten to CVD, nine to MetS, and four to T2DM. Indeed 33 provided strong evidence on the association between adherence to a MedDiet and a reduced incidence of collective cardiodiabesity risk in epidemiological studies. This scientific evidence makes the MedDiet pattern very useful for preventive strategies directed at the general population and also highlights the need to consider all these diet-related risk factors and health outcomes together in daily primary care.
