Effectiveness research with Real World Data to support FDA’s regulatory decision making

1. RCT Details This section provides a high-level overview of the RCT that the described real-world evidence study is trying to replicate as closely as possible given the remaining limitations inherent in the healthcare databases.

1.1 Title Empagliflozin, Cardiovascular Outcomes, and Mortality in Type 2 Diabetes (EMPA-REG OUTCOME trial)

1.2 Intended aim(s) To determine the long-term cardiovascular (CV) safety of empagliflozin, as well as investigating potential benefits on macro- /microvascular outcomes.

1.3 Primary endpoint for replication and RCT finding Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events, Including CV Death, Nonfatal Myocardial Infarction (MI), and Nonfatal Stroke

1.4 Required power for primary endpoint and noninferiority margin (if applicable) For the test of noninferiority for the primary outcome with a margin of 1.3 at a one-sided level of 0.0249, at least 691 events were required to provide a power of at least 90% on the assumption of a true hazard ratio of 1.0.

1.5 Primary trial estimate targeted for replication HR = 0.86 (95% CI 0.74–0.99) comparing empagliflozin to placebo (Zinman et al., 2015)

2. Person responsible for implementation of replication in Aetion Ajinkya Pawar, Ph.D. implemented the study design in the Aetion Evidence Platform. S/he is not responsible for the validity of the design and analytic choices. All implementation steps are recorded and the implementation history is archived in the platform.

5. Cohort Identification

5.1 Cohort Summary This study will involve a new user, parallel group, cohort study design comparing empagliflozin to the DPP-4 inhibitor (DPP4i) antidiabetic class. DPP4is serve as a proxy for placebo, since this class of antidiabetic drugs is not known to have an impact on the outcome of interest. The comparison against DPP4 inhibitors is the primary comparison. The patients will be required to have continuous enrollment during the baseline period of 180 days before initiation of empagliflozin or a comparator drug (cohort entry date). Follow-up for the outcome (3P-MACE), begins the day after drug initiation. As in the trial, patients are allowed to take other antidiabetic during the study.

5.2 Important steps for cohort formation

5.2.1 Eligible cohort entry dates Market availability of empagliflozin in the U.S. started on August 1, 2014. • For Marketscan and Medicare: Aug 1, 2014-Dec 31, 2017 (end of data availability). • For Optum: Aug 1, 2014-Mar 31, 2019 (end of data availability).

5.2.2 Specify inclusion/exclusion criteria for cohort entry and define the index date

Inclusion and exclusion criteria were adapted from the trial as closely as possible. Definitions for all inclusion/exclusion are provided in Appendix A and are summarized in the flowcharts below.

6. Variables

6.1 Exposure-related variables:

Study drug: The study exposure of interest is initiation of empagliflozin. Initiation will be defined by no use of empagliflozin or a comparator in the prior 6 months before treatment initiation (washout period).

Comparator agents- • Initiators of empagliflozin will be compared to initiators of- o DPP4i

Because empagliflozin and comparators are frequently used as second or third line treatments of T2DM, we expect it to be unlikely that empagliflozin and comparators are initiated in patients with substantially different baseline risk for proposed outcomes.

6.2 Covariates: • Age • Sex • Combined Comorbidity Index (CCI), measured over the baseline covariate assessment period, defined as 180 days prior to and including index date

Covariates listed above represent only a small subset of covariates that will ultimately be controlled for in the design and analysis. We use the covariates above only for initial feasibility analyses to judge whether there is likely to be sufficient overlap between treatment groups to proceed with the study. Remaining covariates are defined only after the study has passed the initial feasibility analysis and the initial power assessment and are listed in Table 1 (Appendix B). These covariates are based on those used by Patorno et al. (2019).

6.3 Outcome variables and study follow-up:

6.3.1 Outcome variables

5

Effectiveness research with Real World Data to support FDA’s regulatory decision making: Protocol Template

Effectiveness outcomes of interest (definitions provided in Appendix A): • Primary outcome: 3-point major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), i.e., non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, or CV mortality • Secondary outcomes: Individual components: o Hospital admission for MI (for purposes of this individual component, fatal MI is included) o Hospital admission for stroke (for purposes of this individual component, fatal stroke is included) o All-cause mortality/CV mortality: § All-cause inpatient mortality identified using discharge status codes will be used as a proxy for “CV mortality” in commercial databases Information on CV mortality through data linkage with the National Death Index (NDI) will only become available at a later date for Medicare and will be used in secondary analyses.

Control outcomes of interest (control outcomes only serve to assess aspects of study validity but are not further interpreted): 1. Diabetes Ketoacidosis (we expect to see a positive association; Neal et al., 2017) 2. Heart failure (we expect to see a protective effect; Neal et al., 2017) Control outcome definitions

Outcome Definition Comments Control Outcomes Diabetic Ketoacidosis Inpatient ICD-9 diagnosis: 250.1x Note- The corresponding ICD-10 codes will also be used Heart Failure Inpatient ICD-9 diagnosis (primary diagnosis): Note- The corresponding ICD-10 codes 428.x, 398.91, 402.01, 402.11, 402.91, 404.01, 404.11, 404.91, 404.03, 404.13, 404.93 will also be used

6.3.2 Study follow-up Both as-treated (AT) and intention-to-treat (ITT) analyses will be conducted with treatment defined as the index drug on the day of cohort entry. Because adherence in the real world databases is expected to be much worse than in the trial, the AT analysis is the primary analysis, as it targets the relative hazard of outcomes on treatment.

For the AT analyses, the follow-up will start the day after initiation of empagliflozin and comparator and will continue until the earliest date of the following events:

6 Effectiveness research with Real World Data to support FDA’s regulatory decision making

• The first occurrence of the outcome of interest, unless otherwise specified for selected outcomes, • The date of end of continuous registration in the database, • End of the study period, • Measured death event occurs, • Nursing home admission o Nursing home admissions are considered a censoring event because the data sources utilized typically provide little to no data on a patient, particularly on drug utilization, after admission. We will utilize this as an exclusion reason for cohorts for the same reason. • The date of drug discontinuation, defined as the date of the last continuous treatment episode of the index drug (empagliflozin and comparator) plus a defined grace period (i.e., 30 days after the end of the last prescription’s days’ supply in main analyses). • The date of augmentation or switching from an exposure to a comparator or any other agent in the comparator class and vice versa (e.g. switching from saxagliptin to linagliptin would be a censoring event); o A dosage change on the index treatment does not fulfill this criterion o An added treatment that is not part of the exposure or comparator group does not fulfill this criterion (e.g. if a empagliflozin user adds , he or she does not get censored at the time of insulin augmentation)

For the ITT analyses, the censoring based on the augmentation/switching and treatment discontinuation will be replaced with a maximum allowed follow-up time of 365 days.

In order to complete the initial power analysis, the dummy outcome of a 90-day gap in database enrollment will be used. This outcome is used to ensure that no information on the comparative risks of the outcomes of interest are available at this stage. Complete a 1:1 PS-matched comparative analysis using this outcome. PS should include only 3 covariates: age, sex, and combined comorbidity index. Power calculations are based on the formulas from Chow et al. (2008).
