ABSTRACT
AIMS:
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of janagliflozin, a selective renal sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor, as monotherapy in drug-naive Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
This Phase 3 trial included a 24-week, multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled period, followed by a 28-week extension period. A total of 432 patients with glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels ≥7.0% (53 mmol/mol) and ≤10.5% (91 mmol/mol) were randomized (111) to receive once-daily placebo, 25 mg or 50 mg janagliflozin. After 24 weeks, patients on placebo were switched and re-randomized (11) to 25 mg or 50 mg janagliflozin, whereas patients on janagliflozin maintained the initial therapy. The primary endpoint was change from baseline in HbA1c after 24 weeks.RESULTS:
At Week 24, the placebo-adjusted least squares mean changes in HbA1c were -0.80% (95% confidence interval [CI] -0.98% to -0.62%)/-8.7 mmol/mol (95% CI -10.7 mmol/mol to -6.8 mmol/mol) and -0.88% (95% CI -1.06% to -0.70%)/-9.6 mmol/mol (95% CI -11.6 mmol/mol to -7.7 mmol/mol), respectively (P < 0.001 for both). A higher proportion of patients achieved HbA1c <7.0% (53 mmol/mol) with janagliflozin 25 mg and janagliflozin 50 mg compared with placebo (47.2%, 49.3%, and 23.5%, respectively). Both janagliflozin doses significantly decreased fasting plasma glucose, 2-hour postprandial glucose, body weight and systolic blood pressure, as well as increased high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and insulin sensitivity compared with placebo (P < 0.05 for all). The trends in improvement of these variables were sustained during the 28-week extension period. Overall incidences of adverse events were 67.8%, 71.5% and 60.7% with janagliflozin 25 mg, janagliflozin 50 mg and placebo, respectively. The incidence of urinary tract infections and genital fungal infections was low. No severe hypoglycaemia or ketoacidosis occurred.CONCLUSIONS:
Janagliflozin 25 mg and 50 mg monotherapy once-daily effectively improved glycaemic control, reduced body weight and blood pressure, improved HDL cholesterol and insulin sensitivity, and was generally well tolerated.Palavras-chave
