Background: Cardiovascular (CV) and renal comorbidities are common among type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients, and significantly increase the cost and burden of care. Both sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) improve key outcomes including major CV events, hospitalization for heart failure, and renal outcomes, albeit to varying degrees in different T2D populations. Materials and Methods: The authors reviewed evidence from GLP-1 RA and SGLT2i CV outcomes trials and real-world studies in Thailand and elsewhere. Results: The authors formulated recommendations to guide selection of anti-diabetes medication based on patients’ clinical characteristics and CV or renal risk profile. Conclusion: These recommendations could help guide management of CV/renal comorbidities and risk alongside glucose-lowering therapy for individual patients.

Although the incretin hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a potent stimulator of insulin release, its rapid degradation in vivo by the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV) greatly limits its potential for treatment of type 2 diabetes. Here, we report two novel Ala(8)-substituted analogues of GLP-1, (Abu(8))GLP-1 and (Val(8))GLP-1 which were completely resistant to inactivation by DPP IV or human plasma. (Abu(8))GLP-1 and (Val(8))GLP-1 exhibited moderate affinities (IC(50): 4.76 and 81.1 nM, respectively) for the human GLP-1 receptor compared with native GLP-1 (IC(50): 0.37 nM). (Abu(8))GLP-1 and (Val(8))GLP-1 dose-dependently stimulated cAMP in insulin-secreting BRIN BD11 cells with reduced potency compared with native GLP-1 (1.5- and 3.5-fold, respectively). Consistent with other mechanisms of action, the analogues showed similar, or in the case of (Val(8))GLP-1 slightly impaired insulin releasing activity in BRIN BD11 cells. Using adult obese (ob/ob) mice, (Abu(8))GLP-1 had similar glucose-lowering potency to native GLP-1 whereas the action of (Val(8))GLP-1 was enhanced by 37%. The in vivo insulin-releasing activities were similar. These data indicate that substitution of Ala(8) in GLP-1 with Abu or Val confers resistance to DPP IV inactivation and that (Val(8))GLP-1 is a particularly potent N-terminally modified GLP-1 analogue of possible use in type 2 diabetes.

This article is dedicated to the problem of glycaemic durability of drugs used in treatment of type 2 diabetes. The results of studies comparing durability of glycemic control as monotherapy or in combination of metformin with different drugs: dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, sulfonylurea, inhibitors of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 are shown. The article discusses the results of original research and meta-analysis.

Ipragliflozin is a selective sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor that reduce plasma glucose concentrations by inhibiting glucose reabsorption by the kidney through inhibiting SGLT2 sodium-glucose cotransporter and induce glycosuria. SGLT2 inhibitors are a new class of glucose lowering drugs most recently approved for treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Unlike other antidiabetic agents, SGLT2 inhibitors improve glycemic control (by HbA1c) and provide multiple additional benefits, including decreased body weight, blood pressure, and other multiple pleiotropic effects. The completed clinical trials and real world data have provided evidence that including of SGLT2 inhibitors in the treatment of T2DM has benefits of reduction of cardiovascular and renal outcomes. Goal. The aim of the study was to conduct a clinical and economic examination of ipragliflozin in comparison with other regimens of glucose-lowering therapy with other SGLT2 inhibitors. Methods. In carrying out the pharmacoeconomic analysis itself, a cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) was applied with the calculation of the corresponding cost-effectiveness ratio (CER), incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) according to the formula, as well as an a «budget impact analysis». Multiple one-way sensitivity analysis, check the robustness of the results of the main scenario results to changes in key parameters such as the cost of drugs and complications of diabetes. The time horizon for analyzing the dynamics of economic consequences when using ipragliflozin as a glucose-lowering therapy for T2DM was 5 years. Results. The weighted average cost per patient per year when using the ipragliflozin treatment strategy is 31,182 rubles. The costs of the empagliflozin strategy are 61,291 rubles per patient. In the case of using dapagliflozin, the weighted average costs are 30,032 rubles per patient per year, the total direct medical costs for the current drug therapy option, calculated on the initial number of target practice in 72,143 patients with type 2 diabetes, amounted to 3,068,642,442 rubles. Analysis of the trend of changes in weighted average costs showed that the broader use of ipragliflozin for the treatment of T2DM in the target population leads to reducing in diabetes related direct medical costs by 6.7 %, while the total economic effect of ipragliflozin introduction over five years will be 501,539,327 rubles. Conclusions. Use of ipragliflozin + metformin in T2DM treatment is a cost-effective strategy compared to empagliflozin + metformin. The combination of ipragliflozin with metformin versus dapagliflozin + metformin is economically feasible in terms of cost-effectiveness.
