Introduction
Glucose and weight control effectiveness in patients with Type 2 diabetes (T2D) in treatment with DPP4 inhibitors (DPP4i) that switch to semaglutide is scarce. We aim to assess it in a real-world setting of DPP4i-experienced patients and compare it to DPP4i-naive patients.
Methods
Patients with T2D that were prescribed Once-Weekly semaglutide in 4 hospitals in Madrid-Spain were identified. Patients with another new glucose-lowering-agent prescription and GLP1-experienced patients were excluded. A total of 250 patients were included. The Changes at 6 months of follow up (Paired T-test, Exact McNemar), and comparison between groups (T-test and Chi2) were analysed. A multiple linear regression model to assess HbA1c change in both DPP4i groups (naive vs experienced) adjusted by age, T2D duration, BMI, baseline-HbA1c, insulin use, SGLT2-inhibitors use and semaglutide dose was perfomed.
Results
Baseline weight and BMI was higher in DPP4i-naive group and HbA1c was higher in DPP4i-experienced group. A higher proportion of patients in the DPP4i-naive group had a baseline-HbA1c <7% compared to DPP4i-experienced. There were no other baseline differences (Table 1). At 6 months of follow up boths groups achieved significant reductions in HbA1C, Glucose, weight, BMI and fat mass, but there were no differences between groups. The proportions of patientes that achieved a HbA1c <7% was higher in the DPP4i-naive group (Table-2). Only patients in the DPP4i-naive group achieved a signifficant reduction in insuline dose. After adjusment, the HbA1c reduction in the DPP4i-experienced group was 0.36% lower than in DPP4-naive (IC95%: 0.14% to 0.59%).
