简要总结
The association of insulin degludec with liraglutide in the same device (IDegLira) is a potent but at the same time safe drug that reduces the risk of hypoglycemia when compared to a basal or basal-bolus insulin schedule.
The DUAL (Dual Action of Liraglutide and Insulin Degludec) studies are the pivotal studies of this combination. Specifically, the DUAL VII study has demonstrated that ideglira is a non-inferior drug in terms of glycemic control versus a basal-bolus schedule in patients in the outpatient setting who have failed basal insulin.
Although the basal-bolus insulin plus correction schedule is frequently used in hospitalized patients with hyperglycemia, outpatient management with a complex insulin schedule creates challenges that are difficult to mitigate due to limited time for patient education during an acute illness and limited access to the physician responsible for post-discharge diabetes management.
The use of IDegLira has not been evaluated in clinical studies in the hospital discharge setting where the authors believe it has great potential because it offers similar potency to the basal-bolus scheme but with greater safety with respect to hypoglycemia and less complexity for the patient because it is associated with fewer applications and less need for capillary self-monitoring.
For this reason, in the hospital-home transition scenario, ideglira therapy in patients with poor metabolic control and requiring intensification therapy is proposed as an alternative to the basal-bolus scheme.
详细描述
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM 2) is a chronic non-communicable metabolic disease characterized by progressive deterioration of beta cell functionality, which associated with the presence of insulin resistance results in persistent elevations of plasma glucose or hyperglycemia. The objectives of its treatment are to prevent or delay complications and optimize quality of life.
The American Diabetes Association (ADA) consensus report "Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes-2021" recommends a patient-centered approach to choosing appropriate pharmacologic treatment of glycemia. This includes consideration of key patient factors: 1) important comorbidities, such as atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, high-risk indicators of cardiovascular, chronic kidney disease, and heart failure, 2) risk of hypoglycemia, 3) effects on body weight, 4) side effects, 5) cost, and 6) patient preferences.
With these considerations in mind, drug therapy should be initiated in conjunction with a lifestyle modification consultation focused on diet and physical activity. Considering the progressive nature of the disease, monotherapy only achieves glycemic control for a few years and treatment intensification is required as the disease progresses, however, therapeutic inertia leads to delayed intensification in diabetic patients who are not at glycemic control goals, mainly when it comes to the use of injectable therapies such as insulins.
In recent years, two combinations of basal insulin with GLP-1 analog received regulatory approval from the European Medicines Agency and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Agency. These therapeutic strategies are fixed ratio combinations of insulin degludec U100 and liraglutide (IDegLira); and insulin glargine U100 and lixisenatide (IGlarLixi). Both options demonstrated non-inferiority or superiority in reducing (Hb1Ac) levels in terms of glycemic control compared to their individual components in monotherapy, in the DUAL I study for IDegLira and in the LixiLan-O study for IGlarLixi .
Clinical trials supporting the efficacy and safety of IDegLira in the outpatient setting include DUAL (Dual Action of Liraglutide and Insulin Degludec in Type 2 Diabetes. On the other hand, there are authors who propose considering the use of IDegLira as the first injectable therapy in type 2 diabetic patients and as a therapeutic alternative in those who do not reach glycemic control goals with pharmacological treatment including monotherapy with GLP1 analogues, basal insulin or therapy with multiple doses of insulin in patients with recurrent hypoglycemia.
