Effectiveness of GLP-1 Receptor Agonists and SGLT-2 Inhibitors Combination Therapy in Type 2 Diabetes: A Real-World Experience

Endocr PractPublished Retrospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

Combination therapy with GLP-1RA and SGLT2-I improves glucose control in a substantial proportion of subjects with T2D. Integrating baseline glycaemic burden with longitudinal metabolic changes may support individualized clinical decision-making.

Study context

Population
Adults with T2D treated with combined GLP-1 RA and SGLT2i therapy
Participants
549 adults
Outcome
Response: achieving drug-specific expected HbA1c reduction threshold
Follow-up
6-9 months

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

Achieved expected HbA1C reduction (drug-specific thresholds)

Subjects achieving the expected HbA1C reduction

41.9%

Baseline HbA1C, strongest predictor of response: OR per 1% [≈11 mmol/mol] increase

6.60

Observational data: associations, not effects.

Further findings

Predictors of response

Baseline HbA1c, strongest predictor of response: OR per 1% [≈11 mmol/mol] increase
6.60
Follow-up reductions in FPG and BMI, and increases in HDL-C, also associated with response

Decision curve analysis

Baseline and extended models gave higher net benefit than treat-all and treat-none strategies
