Once-Weekly Insulin for Type 2 Diabetes without Previous Insulin Treatment
Once-weekly treatment with insulin icodec had glucose-lowering efficacy and a safety profile similar to those of once-daily insulin glargine U100 in patients with type 2 diabetes (NEJM)
Effect of Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 Inhibitors Used in Combination with Insulin Treatment in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
The addition of DPP4i to insulin is associated with a statistically significant reduction in glycemic control as measured by HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose, and 2-h postprandial glucose, without increasing the risk of hypoglycemia and weight gain. These conclusions were also observed in both stable-dose and flexible-dose insulin subgroups (Diabetes Therapy)
Compatibility and Safety of Ultra Rapid Lispro with Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion in Patients with Type 1 Diabetes: PRONTO-Pump Study
URLi was compatible with insulin pump use with a safety profile similar to lispro (Diabetes Technology and Therapeutics)
Impact of a Weekly Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 Receptor Agonist, Albiglutide, on Glycemic Control and on Reducing Prandial Insulin Use in Type 2 Diabetes Inadequately Controlled on Multiple Insulin Therapy
A once-weekly GLP-1RA was able to substitute for prandial insulin in 54% of people, substantially reducing the number of prandial insulin injections; glycemic control improved, with the added benefits of weight loss and less hypoglycemia in the GLP-1RA arm. Replacing prandial insulin with a weekly GLP-1RA can simplify basal plus prandial insulin treatments and achieve better outcomes in type 2 diabetes (Diabetes Care)
Insulin glargine/lixisenatide fixed‐ratio combination (iGlarLixi ) compared to premix or addition of meal‐time insulin to basal insulin in people with type 2 diabetes
iGlarLixi demonstrated similar or improved efficacy and safety versus other intensification choices from BI included in this study, providing a clinically relevant treatment option in people with T2D not well controlled on BI (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)
Switching to Degludec is Associated with Reduced Hypoglycaemia, Irrespective of Definition Used or Patient Characteristics: Secondary Analysis of the ReFLeCT Prospective, Observational Study
These results demonstrate that switching to degludec from other basal insulins was associated with reduced rates of hypoglycaemia, irrespective of the definition used or baseline patient characteristics (Diabetes Therapy)
Patient-Reported Outcomes with Insulin Glargine 300 U/mL in People with Type 2 Diabetes: The MAGE Multicenter Observational Study
The MAGE study indicates that Gla-300, as part of a basal-bolus regimen, results in improved treatment satisfaction and reduced hypoglycemia fear in people with advanced T2DM (Diabetes Therapy)
Sotagliflozin added to optimised insulin therapy leads to HbA1c reduction without weight gain in adults with type 1 diabetes
When added to optimised insulin therapy, sotagliflozin improved glycaemic control and body weight and enabled more adults with T1D to achieve A1c goals without weight gain over 52 weeks, although there was more DKA relative to placebo (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)
Use and validation of a survey tool to measure the perceived effectiveness of insulin‐prescribing safety interventions in UK hospitals
The perceived effectiveness of a variety of insulin‐prescribing safety strategies in UK hospitals was described by leveraging a purposely developed survey tool (Diabetic Medicine)
Clinical Characteristics and Outcomes of Patients With Diabetes and COVID-19 in Association With Glucose-Lowering Medication
C-reactive protein may help to identify patients with diabetes who are at greater risk of dying during hospitalization. Older patients with diabetes were prone to death related to COVID-19. Attention needs to be paid to patients with diabetes and COVID-19 who use insulin. ACEI/ARB use showed no significant impact on patients with diabetes and hypertension who have COVID-19 (Diabetes Care)
Rationale for Timely Insulin Therapy in Type 2 Diabetes Within the Framework of Individualised Treatment: 2020 Update
Timely insulin initiation may prevent diabetes progression, reduce diabetes-related complications and has less serious adverse effects (Diabetes Therapy)
Using Insulin to Treat Poorly Controlled Type 2 Diabetes in 2020
Initiating insulin therapy, is recommended at or near the end of each treatment algorithm (JAMA)
Effects of liraglutide and empagliflozin added to insulin therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes: a randomized controlled study ELLENA‐IT study
Liraglutide addition to ongoing insulin therapy effectively reduced glycated hemoglobin and glycated albumin levels than empagliflozin in patients with inadequately controlled type 2 diabetes (Journal of Diabetes Investigation)
Fixed-Ratio Combination of Insulin and GLP-1 RA in Patients with Longstanding Type 2 Diabetes: A Subanalysis of LixiLan-L
iGlarLixi lowered glycated haemoglobin more versus iGlar regardless of T2D duration, with benefit retained even among patients with the longest T2D duration (Diabetes Therapy)
Hypoglycemia during Short-Term Intensive Insulin Therapy and Its Association with Long-Term Glycemic Remission in Patients with Newly Diagnosed Type 2 Diabetes
Mild hypoglycemic episodes during the continuing insulin dose reduction period indicate a long-term drug-free euglycemic remission in patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes. However, the insulin dosage should be reduced even more quickly in the future treatment to decrease the potential harms (Journal of Diabetes Research)
Effect of Insulin on Proximal Tubules Handling of Glucose: A Systematic Review
Available data points to an important insulin participation in renal glucose handling, including tubular glucose transport, but human studies with reproducible and comparable method are still needed (Journal of Diabetes Research)
Effectiveness and Safety of Insulin Glargine 300 U/mL in Insulin‐Naïve Patients with Type 2 Diabetes after Failure of Oral Therapy in a Real World Setting
Starting a BOT regimen with Gla‐300 allowed about 60% of 721 German and Swiss patients with inadequately controlled type 2 diabetes to achieve glycaemic control within 12 months in daily clinical practice. Glycaemic control was achieved without weight gain or increased risk of nocturnal or severe hypoglycaemia (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)
Strategies to reduce insulin prescribing errors in UK hospitals: results from a national survey
There is potential to optimize the functionality of both electronic and paper‐based prescribing systems to improve the safe prescribing of insulin in hospitals in the UK (Diabetic Medicine)
A review of the NG17 recommendations for the use of basal insulin in type 1 diabetes
Many of the trials used in this analysis were treat‐to‐target, which minimize differences in HbA1c. In the NMAs, statistical significance was severely undermined by the wide credible intervals. Despite these limitations, point estimates of HbA1c were used to rank the insulins and formed the basis of NG17 guidance. This study queries whether such analyses should be used to make specific clinical recommendations (Diabetic Medicine)
