ObjectiveTo determine real-world trends in antidiabetic drug use, and persistence and adherence, in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).DesignRetrospective evaluation of administrative claims data (2011–2015) using the Japan Medical Data Center (JMDC) and Medical Data Vision (MDV) databases.SettingAnalysis of two administrative claims databases for Japanese patients with T2DM.ParticipantsAdults (aged ≥18 years) with an International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision code of T2DM and at least one antidiabetic drug prescription.Main outcome measuresTreatment patterns in untreated (UT) or previously treated (PT) patients receiving antidiabetic therapy; persistence with treatment at 12 months; adherence to treatment at 12 months.Results40 908 and 90 421 patients were included from the JMDC and MDV databases, respectively. The most frequently prescribed therapy at the index (first prescription) date was dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP-4i) in UT patients (JMDC: 44.0%, MDV: 54.8%) and combination therapy in PT patients (74.6%, 81.1%). Most common combinations were DPP-4i plus: biguanide (BG; 11.4%, 10.9%), sulfonylurea (SU; 8.4%, 11.0%) or BG+SU (7.8%, 9.1%). In UT or PT patients from either database whose index prescription was for any antidiabetic drug class(es) other than DPP-4i, the most frequent add-on or switch was to DPP-4i. 12-month persistence with index monotherapy was highest with DPP-4i and BG. Adherence was high (≥80%) for all monotherapy schedules, except insulin and glucagon-like peptide-1 agonist, and for the five most frequent two-drug and three-drug combinations. Persistence was greater in elderly UT patients and in those receiving ≤5 medications, but comparatively worse in UT patients with ≥3 index antidiabetic drug classes.ConclusionsThe findings indicate that DPP-4i is the most commonly used antidiabetic drug class in Japanese patients with T2DM, and persistence and adherence to this antidiabetic drug class are high.

Introduction: Selective sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors target only the kidney, and they have reduced efficacy when patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have renal impairment (RI). LX4211 blocks sodium and glucose absorption in the gastrointestinal tract by inhibition of SGLT1, and it enhances urinary sodium and glucose excretion in the urine through inhibition of SGLT2. The dual SGLT1/2 action of LX4211 was anticipated to reduce systolic blood pressure (SBP) in addition to improving glucose control in the setting of RI. Methods: This analysis explored the effect of LX4211 on SBP in a clinical trial of patients with T2DM and moderate to severe RI. Patients (N=31) were randomly assigned to be treated with LX4211 (400 mg, N=16) or placebo (N=15) qd for 7 consecutive days. Postprandial glucose levels after a standard high glucose meal served as the primary measure of pharmacodynamic activity. Baseline and Day 8 trough SBP measures were each an average of 3 seated assessments. Results: Mean baseline characteristics included age 66.4 years, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) 43.4 mL/min/1.73 m 2 , and SBP 130.9 mmHg. Postprandial glucose area under the curve (sampled from pre-dose to 4 hours post meal) was reduced from Baseline to Day 7 by 169.3 mg*hr/dL on LX4211 compared to placebo (p=0.003). Day 8 SBP reductions were 11.4 mmHg on LX4211 and 0.0 mmHg on placebo (p=0.045 for difference between groups). Patients with greater RI (eGFR <45 mL/min/1.73 m2) treated with LX4211 (N=6) had a 10.5 mmHg SBP reduction compared to 0.3 mmHg on placebo (N=9). The difference between seated and standing SBP did not change with LX4211 (0.0 mmHg change, Day 8 vs. Baseline). There were no reports of hypotension, hypovolemia, no serious adverse events, and no patient discontinued due to an adverse event. Mild hypoglycemia was reported in 1 LX4211 patient compared to 2 placebo patients. Conclusions: LX4211 may reduce SBP and enhance glycemic control in T2DM patients with moderate to severe RI.
