  • Treatment of Diabetes Mellitus
    TREATMENT OF DIABETES MELLITUS DIABETES is a condition that affects how the body makes energy from food. Food is broken down into sugar (glucose) in the body and released into the blood. When the blood sugar level rises after a meal, insulin responds to let the sugar into the cells to be used as energy. In diabetes, the body either does not make enough insulin or it stops responding to insulin as well as it should. This results in sugar staying in the blood and leads to serious health problems over time. DIAGNOSIS OF DIABETES1 • A1C Test: Lab test measuring average blood sugar over past two to three months • Fasting Blood Sugar Test: Lab test measuring blood sugar after eight hours of no food or drink • Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT): Measures blood sugar before and two hours after drinking a specific sugary liquid • Random Blood Sugar Test: Measures blood sugar at a moment in time, without any kind of preparation (like fasting) FASTING BLOOD ORAL GLUCOSE TOLERANCE RANDOM BLOOD RESULT A1C TEST SUGAR TEST TEST SUGAR TEST Diabetes ≥ 6.5% ≥126 mg/dL ≥ 200 mg/dL ≥ 200 mg/dL Prediabetes 5.7 – 6.4% 100 – 125 mg/dL 140 – 199 mg/dL N/A Normal < 5.7% ≤99 mg/dL < 140 mg/dL N/A NON-DRUG TREATMENTS2 THERAPY COST WHAT TO EXPECT Diet (Mediterranean diet) and exercise (30 minutes a day, five days a week of moderate- Weight loss $-$$ intensity exercise); 7% weight loss decreases risk of diabetes3 Psychological intervention $$-$$$ Psychotherapy may reduce diabetic distress and improve glycemic control4,5 nationalcooperativerx.com PRESCRIPTION TREATMENTS

  • IHS PROVIDER September 2017
    September 2017 Volume 42 Number 9 Indian Health Service National Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee SGLT-2 inhibitors (Update) NPTC Formulary Brief August Meeting 2017 Background: The FDA has currently approved three SGLT-2 inhibitors, two of which have completed FDA-mandated cardiovascular outcomes trials. Last year, in the Empagliflozin Cardiovascular Outcome Event Trial in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients (EMPA-REG), empagliflozin not only reduced cardiovascular events, but also mortality.1 This year, the Canagliflozin Cardiovascular Assessment Study (CANVAS) demonstrated equivocal cardiovascular benefits, no mortality benefit, and significant harms in those receiving canagliflozin.2 The DECLARE-TIMI 58 cardiovascular study of dapagliflozin will be completed in April 2019 (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01730534). Uncertainty remains regarding the current data, long- term benefits and harms, and differentiation among SGLT-2 inhibitors. Following a review of SGLT2 inhibitors at the August 2017 NPTC meeting on their cardiovascular outcomes, net benefit and place in therapy, no modifications were made to the National Core Formulary (NCF). Discussion: EMPA-REG enrolled 7,020 patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and HgbA1c values between 7.0-10.0%. All patients had established cardiovascular disease (CVD) and were observed for a median duration of 3.1 years. Empagliflozin reduced the primary outcome of cardiovascular (CV) death, nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), or nonfatal cardiovascular accident (CVA) by 6.5 events per 1000 patient-years (pt-yrs). Mortality decreased by 9.2 events per 1000 pt-yrs, primarily driven by a reduction in CV mortality of 7.8 events per 1000 pt-yrs. Heart failure hospitalization decreased by 5.1 events per 1000 pt-yrs.

    Steglatro™ (ertugliflozin), Steglujan™ (ertugliflozin/sitagliptin), Segluromet™ (ertugliflozin/metformin) – New drug approval • On December 19, 2017, the FDA approved Merck’s Steglatro (ertugliflozin), Steglujan (ertugliflozin/sitagliptin), and Segluromet (ertugliflozin/metformin) as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). — Steglujan is indicated when treatment with both ertugliflozin and sitagliptin is appropriate. — Segluromet is indicated when patients are not adequately controlled on a regimen containing ertugliflozin or metformin, or in patients who are already treated with both ertugliflozin and metformin. — These drugs are not recommended in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) or for the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis. — Steglujan has not been studied in patients with a history of pancreatitis. It is unknown whether patients with a history of pancreatitis are at increased risk for the development of pancreatitis while using Steglujan. • Ertugliflozin is the fourth sodium-glucose co-transoporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor approved by the FDA. Other marketed SGLT2 inhibitors include Jardiance® (empagliflozin), Farxiga® (dapagliflozin), and Invokana® (canagliflozin). • The efficacy and safety of ertugliflozin were evaluated in multiple clinical studies involving patients with T2DM. Ertugliflozin was studied as monotherapy and in combination with metformin and/or a dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitor. Ertugliflozin was also studied in combination with other antidiabetic medications, including insulin and a sulfonylurea, and in T2DM patients with moderate renal impairment. — In patients with T2DM, treatment with ertugliflozin, ertugliflozin + sitagliptin, and ertugliflozin + metformin reduced hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) vs. placebo or the active comparator. — In patients with T2DM and moderate renal impairment, treatment with ertugliflozin did not result in a reduction in HbA1c vs.

Dossier Received: ertugliflozin (yes), semaglutide (no) Current Status of PDL Class: See Appendix 1. Purpose for Class Update: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of semaglutide and ertugliflozin (and combinations) which were recently approved for blood glucose lowering in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). High quality new evidence published since the last review will also be presented. Research Questions: 1. In patients with T2DM, is there any new comparative evidence for non-insulin antidiabetic therapies based on surrogate efficacy outcomes (e.g., hemoglobin A1c [HbA1c]) and long-term clinically meaningful effectiveness outcomes (e.g., microvascular outcomes, macrovascular outcomes and mortality)? 2. In patients with T2DM, is there any new comparative evidence for non-insulin diabetes treatments based on harms outcomes (e.g., severe hypoglycemia, heart failure, diabetic ketoacidosis, pancreatitis, etc.)? 3. Are there subpopulations of patients with T2DM for which specific therapies may be more effective or associated with less harm? 4. What are the efficacy and harms evidence for the two new non-insulin diabetes treatments, ertugliflozin and semaglutide? Conclusions: A Drug Effectiveness Review Project (DERP) update on newer diabetes therapies, three new guidelines/standards, one new randomized controlled trial and two new drug reviews were reviewed for this class update.

The advice is summarised as follows: ADVICE: following a full submission ertugliflozin (Steglatro®) is accepted for restricted use within NHSScotland. Indication under review: in adults aged 18 years and older with type 2 diabetes mellitus as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycaemic control: As monotherapy in patients for whom the use of metformin is considered inappropriate due to intolerance or contraindications. In addition to other medicinal products for the treatment of diabetes. SMC restriction: ertugliflozin is accepted for use as monotherapy and as add-on therapy. When used as monotherapy it is restricted to patients who would otherwise receive a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor and in whom a sulphonylurea or pioglitazone is not appropriate. Ertugliflozin was superior to placebo in lowering HbA1c in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus in phase III studies in monotherapy, dual therapy and triple therapy settings. Chairman Scottish Medicines Consortium Published 14 January 2019 1 Indication In adults aged 18 years and older with type 2 diabetes mellitus as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycaemic control: As monotherapy in patients for whom the use of metformin is considered inappropriate due to intolerance or contraindications. In addition to other medicinal products for the treatment of diabetes.1 Dosing Information The recommended starting dose is 5mg orally once daily which can, if tolerated, be increased to 15mg once daily if additional glycaemic control is needed.

Evidently, there is an unmet need for treatments improved glucose tolerance and preserved insulin secretion jpet.aspetjournals.org with greater sustainability in b-cell protection and antidiabetic after both 4 and 8 weeks of treatment. These effects were efficacy. Through an insulin and b cell–independent mechanism, reflected by less reduction in b-cell mass with empagliflozin or empagliflozin, a specific sodium glucose cotransporter type 2 liraglutide at week 4, whereas only empagliflozin showed b-cell (SGLT-2) inhibitor, may potentially provide longer efficacy.
