ABSTRACT
DPP4 inhibitors are widely prescribed as treatments for type 2 diabetes. Because drug responses vary among individuals, we initiated investigations to identify genetic variants associated with the magnitude of drug responses. Sitagliptin (100 mg) was administered to 47 healthy volunteers. Several endpoints were measured to assess clinically relevant responses - including the effect of sitagliptin on glucose and insulin levels during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). This pilot study confirmed that sitagliptin (100 mg) decreased the area under the curve for glucose during an OGTT (p = 0.0003). Furthermore, sitagliptin promoted insulin secretion during the early portion of the OGTT as reflected by an increase in the ratio of plasma insulin at 30 min divided by plasma insulin at 60 min (T30T60) from mean ± SEM 0.87 ± 0.05 to 1.62 ± 0.36 mU/L (p = 0.04). The magnitude of sitagliptin's effect on insulin secretion (as judged by the increase in the T30T60 ratio for insulin) was correlated with the magnitude of sitagliptin-induced increase in the area under the curve for intact plasma GLP1 levels during the first hour of the OGTT. This study confirmed previously reported sex differences in glucose and insulin levels during an OGTT. Specifically, females exhibited higher levels of glucose and insulin at the 90-180 min time points. However, we did not detect significant sex-associated differences in the magnitude of sitagliptin-induced changes in T30T60 ratios for either glucose or insulin. In conclusion, T30T60 ratios for insulin and glucose during an OGTT provide useful indices to assess pharmacodynamic responses to DPP4 inhibitors.
