DPP-4 Inhibitors Recommended by ADA/EASD as Second Line Option for Type 2 Diabetes
SUMMARY
Pancreatic - and -cell dysfunction coupled with insulin resistance play an important role in the development of hyperglycemia in T2DM.
Incretins (GLP-1 and GIP) are gut hormones released in response to an oral glucose meal.
GLP-1 and GIP both stimulate insulin secretion from the pancreas in a glucose-dependent manner. GLP-1 also suppresses glucagon secretion in a glucose-dependent manner. DPP-4 inhibition is one therapeutic strategy to prolong the physiologic effects of incretins. DPP-4 inhibitors are now recommended by ADA/EASD as second line agents for T2DM, reflecting their increasing relevance in achieving adequate glucose control.

Dose reduction when administered with a sulfonylurea. Saxagliptinb Pooled analysis of five placebo-controlled studies demonstrated a small decrease in absolute lymphocyte count. Clinical significance unknown. Linagliptinc Administration with a potent inducer of P-glycoprotein (eg Rifampicin) resulted in a 39.6% decrease in linagliptin AUC, 43.8% decrease in Cmax and 30% decreased DPP-4 inhibition at trough.
Though still clinically efficacious, full efficacy might not be achieved.

The increase in intact GLP-1 during the first 2 hours (GLP1 AUEC0-2h) was numerically greater with Linagliptin. However, the reduction in plasma glucose AUEC0-3h was numerically greater with Sitagliptin.
SUMMARY
DPP-4 inhibitors differ in terms of their metabolism, dosing, elimination, specificity, and clinical usage. In the head-to-head trial of Sitagliptin versus Saxagliptin, Sitagliptin produced numerically greater reduction in HbA1c and FPG. Trials comparing the effect of Sitagliptin versus Vildagliptin on glycemic variability produced inconsistent results.
In the trial comparing Linagliptin versus Sitagliptin and placebo, Sitagliptin produced numerically greater reduction in weighted mean glucose and FPG despite a lower baseline.

DPP-4 Inhibitors in Type 2 Diabetes
SUMMARY
In elderly patients with T2DM, treatment with Sitagliptin led to rapid and sustained glucose-lowering over 24 weeks with clinically significant effects as early as day 3. Among diabetic patients who skip meals, Sitagliptin is associated with less risk for hypoglycemia compared to SU. Among patients already on insulin, addition of Sitagliptin is associated with better glycemic control versus insulin uptitration with a lower risk for hypoglycemia and weight gain. In diabetic patients with CKD, Sitagliptin demonstrated similar efficacy with Glipizide without accelerating renal disease progression and lower incidence of hypoglycemia.

SUMMARY
Pooled safety analysis of patients exposed to Sitagliptin from 19 clinical trials did not show an increased incidence of any adverse events of interest including pancreatitis, cancer and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE).
In an updated analysis which included 25 clinical trials, Sitagliptin was not associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Cardiovascular outcome trials are now ongoing to investigate if incretin-based therapies can reduce CV events among patients with T2DM.
