SGLT2 Inhibitors May Prevent Diabetic Kidney Disease

By writer to www.medscape.com

Use of the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor diabetes drug class “might decrease the danger of significant renal occasions in routine medical observe,” new knowledge from a Scandinavian registry point out.

The sufferers, for probably the most half, had no kidney illness at baseline.

These real-world contributors with type 2 diabetes who have been newly prescribed an SGLT2 inhibitor relatively than a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor have been 58% much less more likely to have a severe renal occasion throughout the subsequent 1.7 years.

“Complementing knowledge from medical trials, this examine gives additional assist for the usage of SGLT2 inhibitors in a broad vary of sufferers with sort 2 diabetes,” Björn Pasternak, MD, PhD, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden, and colleagues summarize of their article published online April 29 in BMJ.

“Total, the findings by Pasternak and colleagues add to the spectacular observe file for SGLT2 inhibitors,” writes Steven M. Smith, PhD, Division of Pharmacotherapy and Translational Analysis and Heart for Integrative Cardiovascular and Metabolic Illness, College of Florida, in an accompanying editorial.

And he harassed, “Though SGLT2 inhibitors appeared significantly useful in individuals with heart problems or chronic kidney disease, it’s maybe extra informative that these medicine have been related to a decrease threat of improvement and development of diabetic kidney illness in sufferers with out these overt comorbidities, who’ve largely been excluded from medical trials.”

Most Sufferers Had No CKD, Low Fee of CVD in Actual-World Examine

Sort 2 diabetes is a number one reason behind kidney failure, however in a number of trials, SGLT2 inhibitors — which scale back blood stress, weight, and albuminuria — had a useful impact on renal outcomes, the authors write.

And within the first devoted renal trial of certainly one of these brokers, CREDENCE, sufferers with sort 2 diabetes and continual kidney illness had higher outcomes with canagliflozin than with placebo; the agent was subsequently permitted by the US Meals and Drug Administration in September 2019 for additional indications of lowering the danger of end-stage kidney illness and worsening of kidney operate, amongst different new indications. Different SGLT2 inhibitors are being studied in renal outcomes trials, together with dapagliflozin in sufferers with CKD in DAPA-CKD, which was stopped early on the finish of March due to overwhelming efficacy of the drug.

However these key trials “left essential questions unanswered for clinicians and sufferers,” notes Smith.

“All have been placebo managed and had extremely chosen contributors, making the outcomes exhausting to translate to real-world use.”

To research this, Pasternak and colleagues recognized 38,273 new customers of SGLT2 inhibitors and 107,854 new customers of DPP-Four inhibitors in nationwide registry knowledge from 2013 to 2018 in Sweden, Denmark, and Norway. 

They matched 29,887 new customers of SGLT2 inhibitors with 29,887 new customers of DPP-Four inhibitors.

Within the SGLT2-inhibitor group, roughly two thirds of sufferers acquired dapagliflozin (66.1%), a 3rd acquired empagliflozin (32.6%), and few acquired canagliflozin (1.3%), for a imply of 1.Four years.

Within the DPP-Four group, shut to 2 thirds of sufferers acquired sitagliptin (64.8%), adopted by vildagliptin (20.0%), linagliptin (10.2%), saxagliptin (2.8%), and alogliptin (2.2%), for a imply of two.Zero years.

The matched cohort included 31% of sufferers from Sweden, 48% from Denmark, and 21% from Norway.

The sufferers have been a imply age of 61 years and 39% have been feminine.

About one in 5 (19%) had a historical past of main heart problems and solely 3.3% had a historical past of continual kidney illness.

Most sufferers (82%) have been receiving metformin, 26% have been taking insulin, and eight% weren’t receiving any antidiabetic treatment.

The first final result, severe renal occasions, was a composite of renal alternative remedy (dialysis or kidney transplant), dying from renal causes, and hospital admission for renal occasions, and this occurred in 2.6 per 1000 person-years within the SGLT2 inhibitor group versus 6.2 such occasions per 1000 person-years within the DPP-Four inhibitor group, for a hazard ratio of 0.42 (95% CI, 0.34 – 0.53).  

When splitting these into their elements — the secondary outcomes — sufferers within the SGLT2 inhibitor group have been much less more likely to want dialysis or a kidney transplant (HR, 0.32) or admission to hospital for kidney illness (HR, 0.41) — however in the end they didn’t have a considerably decrease chance of dying from renal causes (HR, 0.77).

The outcomes have been comparable in women and men and in youthful and older sufferers (age 35-64 and 65-84) residing in any of the three international locations or beginning empagliflozin or dapagliflozin.  

When the info have been adjusted for A1c and estimated glomerular filtration charge (in Swedish and Danish sufferers) in addition to blood stress, physique mass index, and smoking (in Swedish sufferers), the hazard ratios for the first final result elevated from 0.41 to 0.50 in Swedish sufferers and from 0.42 to 0.55 in Danish sufferers indicating there was some confounding by these variables.

And since this was an observational examine, different “unmeasured confounding can’t be dominated out,” the researchers say; Smith agreed.  

Extra Actual-World Trials Wanted, Ertugliflozin Is Not Renoprotective

Smith requires research to see if the findings could be comparable in low-income international locations which have a excessive charge of kidney illness.

“Extra pragmatic comparative effectiveness trials in real-world settings and extra various populations might add additional assist for broader entry to those medicine, not solely in excessive earnings international locations but additionally in decrease earnings international locations the place the burden of kidney illness is disproportionately excessive,” he concludes.

Nonetheless, SGLT2 inhibitors are costly drugs.

And as recently reported, maybe this observe file for improved renal outcomes doesn’t prolong to all medicine on this class.

Not too long ago report topline outcomes from the Analysis of Ertugliflozin Efficacy and Security Cardiovascular Outcomes (VERTIS CV) trial present ertugliflozin was not superior to placebo for the composite final result of renal dying, dialysis/transplant, or doubling of serum creatinine.

The examine was supported by the Swedish Most cancers Society, Nordic Most cancers Union, and Novo Nordisk Basis. Pasternack was supported by a grant from the Strategic Analysis Space Epidemiology program at Karolinska Institute. Disclosures for the opposite authors are listed within the article. Smith has reported receiving analysis funding from the Nationwide Institutes of Well being and serves on the board of administrators for the Consortium for Southeastern Healthcare High quality.
