Methods: This prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded-endpoint, multicenter, parallel-group, comparative study included 340 subjects with T2DM and no history of apparent CVD recruited at 24 clinical units. Subjects were randomly allocated to either the tofoglifozin treatment group (n 169) or conventional treatment group using drugs other than SGLT2 inhibitors (n 171). Primary outcomes were changes= in mean and maximum common carotid IMT measured by echography during= a 104-week treatment period. Results: In a mixed-efects model for repeated measures, the mean IMT of the common carotid artery (mean- IMT-CCA), along with the right and left maximum IMT of the CCA (max-IMT-CCA), signifcantly declined in both the tofoglifozin ( 0.132 mm, SE 0.007; 0.163 mm, SE 0.013; 0.170 mm, SE 0.020, respectively) and the control group ( 0.140 mm,− SE 0.006; 0.190 mm,− SE 0.012; 0.190 mm,− SE 0.020, respectively).

  • Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitor, Attenuates Body Weight Gain and Fat Accumulation in Diabetic and Obese Animal Models
    OPEN Citation: Nutrition & Diabetes (2014) 4, e125; doi:10.1038/nutd.2014.20 & 2014 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 2044-4052/14 www.nature.com/nutd ORIGINAL ARTICLE Tofogliflozin, a sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor, attenuates body weight gain and fat accumulation in diabetic and obese animal models M Suzuki1, M Takeda1, A Kito1, M Fukazawa1, T Yata2, M Yamamoto1, T Nagata1, T Fukuzawa1, M Yamane1, K Honda1, Y Suzuki1 and Y Kawabe1 OBJECTIVE: Tofogliflozin, a highly selective inhibitor of sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2), induces urinary glucose excretion (UGE), improves hyperglycemia and reduces body weight in patients with Type 2 diabetes (T2D). The mechanisms of tofogliflozin on body weight reduction were investigated in detail with obese and diabetic animal models. METHODS: Diet-induced obese (DIO) rats and KKAy mice (a mouse model of diabetes with obesity) were fed diets containing tofogliflozin. Body weight, body composition, biochemical parameters and metabolic parameters were evaluated. RESULTS: In DIO rats tofogliflozin was administered for 9 weeks, UGE was induced and body weight gain was attenuated. Body fat mass decreased without significant change in bone mass or lean body mass. Food consumption (FC) increased without change in energy expenditure, and deduced total calorie balance (deduced total calorie balance ¼ FC À UGE À energy expenditure) decreased. Respiratory quotient (RQ) and plasma triglyceride (TG) level decreased, and plasma total ketone body (TKB) level increased. Moreover, plasma leptin level, adipocyte cell size and proportion of CD68-positive cells in mesenteric adipose tissue decreased. In KKAy mice, tofogliflozin was administered for 3 or 5 weeks, plasma glucose level and body weight gain decreased together with a reduction in liver weight and TG content without a reduction in body water content.

  • Comparison of Tofogliflozin 20 Mg and Ipragliflozin 50 Mg Used Together
    2017, 64 (10), 995-1005 Original Comparison of tofogliflozin 20 mg and ipragliflozin 50 mg used together with insulin glargine 300 U/mL using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM): A randomized crossover study Soichi Takeishi, Hiroki Tsuboi and Shodo Takekoshi Department of Diabetes, General Inuyama Chuo Hospital, Inuyama 484-8511, Japan Abstract. To investigate whether sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), tofogliflozin or ipragliflozin, achieve optimal glycemic variability, when used together with insulin glargine 300 U/mL (Glargine 300). Thirty patients with type 2 diabetes were randomly allocated to 2 groups. For the first group: After admission, tofogliflozin 20 mg was administered; Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels were titrated using an algorithm and stabilized at 80 mg/dL level with Glargine 300 for 5 days; Next, glucose levels were continuously monitored for 2 days using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM); Tofogliflozin was then washed out over 5 days; Subsequently, ipragliflozin 50 mg was administered; FPG levels were titrated using the same algorithm and stabilized at 80 mg/dL level with Glargine 300 for 5 days; Next, glucose levels were continuously monitored for 2 days using CGM. For the second group, ipragliflozin was administered prior to tofogliflozin, and the same regimen was maintained. Glargine 300 and SGLT2i were administered at 8:00 AM. Data collected on the second day of measurement (mean amplitude of glycemic excursion [MAGE], average daily risk range [ADRR]; on all days of measurement) were analyzed. Area over the glucose curve (<70 mg/dL; 0:00 to 6:00, 24-h), M value, standard deviation, MAGE, ADRR, and mean glucose levels (24-h, 8:00 to 24:00) were significantly lower in patients on tofogliflozin than in those on ipragliflozin.
