8 What’s new? NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 8 01-13-16

9 DPP-4 Inhibitors Inhibit DPP-4 enzyme  prolonging incretin levels (GIP & GLP1) Incretin hormone levels increase in response to a meal and are typically inactivated by DPP-4; inhibiting DPP-4 prolongs their effects. NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 9 01-13-16

10 DPP-4 Inhibitors  Newest kid on the block: alogliptin  Latest class issue: joint pain (August 2015)  33 cases of arthralgia reported 2006-2013  Timing: 1 day to years  Advice: contact provider immediately if joint pain occurs after DPP-IV initiation  Symptoms typically go away with drug D/C  Symptoms typically persist if switched to alternative DPP-IV NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 10 01-13-16 http://www.fda.gov/Drugs/DrugSafety/ucm459579.htm

11 DPP-4 Inhibitors: Comparisons NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 11 01-13-16 DRUGDOSERENALHEPATICOTHER Alogliptin25mg PO dailyCrCl 30-60: 12.5mg CrCl < 30: 6.25mg ESRD: 6.25mg Not studiedNewest agent Linagliptin5mg PO dailyNo adjustment necessary Great in renal impairment! Saxagliptin2.5-5mg PO dailyCrCl ≤ 50: 2.5mgNot studied Sitagliptin100mg PO dailyCrCl 30-50: 50mg CrCl < 30: 25mg Not studiedPatent expires 2017

12 DPP-IV Inhibitors: How do you choose?  Role: intolerance or contraindication to 1 st -line therapies  Similar glycemic efficacy amongst products  Renal dysfunction (CrCl < 30 ml/min): linagliptin  Sitagliptin, saxagliptin, alogliptin all require dose adjustments  Otherwise, choice usually is dictated by payer NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 12 01-13-16

13 GLP-1 Receptor Agonists ↑ glucose-dependent insulin secretion ↑ satiety ↓ glucagon production ↓ gastric emptying NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 13 01-13-16

14 GLP-1 Receptor Agonists  Things to consider: »Frequency of dosing  Twice daily: exenatide (Byetta ® )  Once daily: liraglutide (Victoza ® )  Once weekly: albiglutide (Tanzeum ® ), dulaglutide (Trulicity ® ), exenatide (Bydureon ® ) »Complexity of device/use NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 14 01-13-16

15  Advantages »Less-frequent dosing »Little to no hypoglycemia »Weight loss  Disadvantages »Injectable »GI side effects »Pancreatitis (?) »Medullary thyroid cancer (?) NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 15 01-13-16 GLP-1 Receptor Agonists

16 GLP-1 Receptor Agonists – Weight Loss  Saxenda ® (liraglutide)  Dosing: »Start at 0.6mg daily; titrate up in 0.6 increments to 3mg daily »(T2D: 0.6mg daily; titrate up to max of 1.8mg daily)  Re-evaluate in 16 weeks; D/C if > 4% weight loss  If > 3 doses missed, revert back to 0.6mg and re-titrate NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 16 01-13-16 Novo Nordisk A/S (2014) Saxenda [package insert]. Bagsvaerd, Denmark.

17 GLP1 agonists: Albiglutide example  Must be reconstituted prior to use  “Rock” the pen back-and-forth 5 times  Let the pen sit for 15 minutes, cartridge pointed up  “Rock” the pen back-and-forth 5 more times…  Attach the pen needle & prime  Inject! NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 17 01-13-16 http://www.tanzeum.com/how-to-use.html

18 GLP1 agonists: How do you choose?  Shorter-acting agents (exenatide, liraglutide): »Improved PPG coverage  Longer-acting agents (albiglutide, dulaglultide, exenatide LAR): »More effect on fasting BG (also improve PPG)  Beneficial effects & adverse effects relatively similar…  Ease of use (patient preference) and payer may dictate NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 18 01-13-16 Diabetes Educ 2015;41(1 suppl):32S-46S.

19 SGLT2 Inhibitors ↓ reabsorption of filtered glucose ↓ renal threshold for glucose ↑ urinary glucose excretion NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 19 01-13-16

20  Advantages »Oral »Little to no hypoglycemia »Weight loss »BP lowering »CV benefit (?) »Role in T1D (?)  Disadvantages »Genitourinary infections »Orthostasis »Euglycemic DKA »Decreased bone mass »Brand-name only NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 20 01-13-16 SGLT2 Inhibitors

21 SGLT2 Inhibitors – BP lowering  ↓ SBP : 1-7 mmHg, ↓ DBP: 0-3 mmHg  Effects are seen in ~ 1 week and typically stabilize  Potential mechanism: osmotic diuresis  Concerns »Elderly »Renal impairment »Low SBP NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 21 01-13-16 J Am Soc Hypertens 2014;8(5):330-9.

22 SGLT2 Inhibitors – CV benefit?  Empagliflozin: EMPA-REG study  7020 patients with T2D & CVD  Primary outcome: CV-related death, non-fatal MI, non- fatal stroke »10.5% empagliflozin group (A1C = 7.8%) »12.1% placebo group (A1C = 8.2%) »HR=0.86; p=0.04 for superiority NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 22 01-13-16 N Engl J Med 2015; Sept 17 [epub ahead of print].

23 SGLT2 Inhibitors – T1D treatment?  18-week study of canagliflozin 100mg, 300mg, or placebo added to insulin in T1D »Had to ↓ insulin dose 10-20% prior to initiation  Efficacy:  Significant ↓ A1C by ≥ 0.4% in canagliflozin groups  Safety:  ↑ incidence of ketone-related AE’s (5-9% vs. 0%)  ↑ incidence of DKA (4-6% vs. 0%) NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 23 01-13-16 Diabetes Care 2015; Oct 20 [epub ahead of print].

24 SGLT2 Inhibitors – GU Infections  Females (10%) > males (4%)  Candidiasis (vulvovaginal, balanitis), mycotic infections, cystitis, urosepsis  Questions: »Dose-related? »Does T2D increase risk on its own?

25 SGLT2 Inhibitors – Euglycemic DKA  Euglycemic DKA = DKA with uncharacteristically mild- moderate glucose ↑  20 clinical cases reported in US 03/2013-06/2014 »101 cases in Europe  Concern: »Could be in DKA and not know it based on BG values  delayed treatment NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 25 01-13-16 Diabetes Care 2015;38(9):1638-42.

26 SGLT2 Inhibitors – ↓ bone mass  Specific to canagliflozin (Invokana ® )  New information added to safety information in September 2015  Warning: »Greater ↓ in bone mineral density at the hip »Can occur as early as 12 weeks into treatment NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 26 01-13-16 Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (2015) Invokana [package insert]. Titusville, NJ.

27 SGLT2 Inhibitors – How do you choose?  Glycemic efficacy relatively similar (and relatively weak)  Weight loss comparable  Empagliflozin may have beneficial effects in those with established CVD & is ok to use in patients with hepatic impairment  Canagliflozin may increase risk of bone fracture & must be taken with food NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 27 01-13-16

28 Inhaled insulin NEW DIABETES THERAPIES: PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR OUTPATIENT USE 28 01-13-16  Advantages »Not injectable »Much smaller device than previous version  Disadvantages  Cannot use in asthma or COPD, smokers  Must be used with long- acting insulin in T1D  Only for adults (age ≥ 18)  Lung cancer (?)  Brand-name only
