Introduction: Real-world data on glucose and weight control effectiveness in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on treatment with semaglutide is scarce. We aim to assess it in a cohort of patients from a real-world setting in Spain.
Materials and methods: We identified 830 patients with T2DM that were prescribed Semaglutide once-weekly since May 2019 to December 2020, in 4 hospitals in Madrid-Spain. At 6±3 months, 435 GPL1-naïve and 317 GLP1-experienced patients continued on treatment. Semaglutide withdrawal ocurred in 78 patients(9.4%), mainly due to gastrointestinal adverse events. At 12±3 months, 317 GPL1-naïve and 265 GLP1-experienced patients continued on treatment. Semaglutide withdrawal ocurred in 24 patients (3.3%), mainly due to gastrointestinal adverse events. The changes in HbA1c, weight, fat-mass and skeletal-muscle-mass at 6 and 12 months of follow up, adjusted by basal HbA1c, age, T2DM duration, BMI, sex, and change in Metformin, DPP-4, SGLT-2, Sulfonylurea, Repaglinide, Insuline and Thiazolidinedione status was assessed (multiple linear regression model).
Results: Baseline characteristics and T2DM treatments are shown in Table 1. There was a significant reduction in HbA1c, weight, and fat mass after Semaglutide treatment at 6 and 12 months of follow-up (Table 2). The proportion of patients that achieved a HbA1c ≤7% was significant higher in boths groups. After adjusment the baseline-HbA1c was the only predictor for HbA1c change at 6 and 12 months.

Conclusion: Treatment with semaglutide once-weekly is an effective glucose and weight lowering treatment in GLP1-naïve and GLP1-experienced patients with T2DM.
