Combination Therapy of Oral Hypoglycemic Agents in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Abstract: The Korean Diabetes Association (KDA) recently updated the Clinical Practice Guidelines on antihyperglycemic agent therapy for adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In combination therapy of oral hypoglycemic agents (OHAs), general recommendations were not changed from those of the 2015 KDA guidelines. The Committee on Clinical Practice Guidelines of the KDA has extensively reviewed and discussed the results of meta-analyses and systematic reviews of effectiveness and safety of OHAs and many cli… Show more

“…This is attributed to the higher baseline weight in this group and higher HbA1c patients enrolled in this group. Glycemic control and improved lipid profile was observed similar to studies of by Hermansen et al [22] and M K Moon et al [23] Insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) was found to be decreased (p value < 0.001) and beta cell function (HOMA-β) was improved significantly with mean difference of 9. In all the four groups, improvement in HOMA-IR and HOMA-β were significant (p value < 0.05).…”

“…A common limitation of the aforementioned studies was an insufficient number of PaC cases due to its low incidence rate 9 , 20 , 21 . Although DPP4i has favorable safety profiles, such as a low risk of hypoglycemia or weight gain, and effectiveness in glycemic control, the high price is a stumbling block for its usage 16 , 22 . In Korea, however, the use of DPP4i has dramatically increased since 2009, and comprised one-third of the market share in 2013 because of the approval for reimbursement, with metformin dominating the market over this period 11 , 12 .…”

“…A preclinical study suggested that the antitumor effect of DPP4i is due to downregulation of autophagy, increased apoptosis, and cell cycle arrest 23 . Given that DPP4i has been widely used as a second-line therapy after metformin 16 , 22 , most DPP4i users were also metformin users. To avoid overestimating the protective effect of DPP4i by a possible combined metformin antitumor effect, we repeated the analyses confined to metformin users.…”

“…In conclusion, as recent guidelines have stipulated, selection of a third agent as add‐on therapy to metformin and sulfonylurea should be based on the individual patient's clinical characteristics as well as on efficacy, side effects, mechanism of action, risk of hypoglycaemia, effect on body weight, patient preference, and combined comorbidity . In this setting, the first‐ever direct, head‐to‐head, comparative clinical trial of two DPP‐4 inhibitors, teneligliptin and sitagliptin, in an Asian T2DM population who were not controlled with dual metformin/sulfonylurea combination therapy, clearly showed that teneligliptin 20 mg met the primary endpoint of showing non‐inferiority to sitagliptin 100 mg.…”
