  2. CLASSES OF ORAL ANTIDIABETIC MEDICATIONS

  3. CLASSES OF ORAL ANTIDIABETIC MEDICATIONS Canagliflozin just approved.

  4. METFORMIN French lilac – used in folk medicine for centuries. Synthesized in 1920s In 1950 Metformin was used to treat influenca and noted to lower blood glucose to physiologic levels.

  5. METFORMIN • In 1957 first clinical trial of diabetes treatment was published in France • Approved in 1958 in UK, 1972 in Canada and in 1995 in US.

  6. METFORMIN • Suppression of hepatic gluconeogenesis through activation AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). • Improves glucose uptake in muscle and fat. • Causes weight loss in some individuals. • Improves menstrual cycle and fertility in PCOS • May improve NASH. • May reduce risk of range of different carcinomas

  7. METFORMIN • Comes in 500, 850 and 1000 mg pills. • Extended release pills are available (but more expensive) • Usual dose is 1000 mg twice a day. • Main side effects is abdominal cramping and diarrhea • Metformin extended release is better tolerated by some patients • Even mild renal failure (Cr>1.4 in males and >1.5 in females) is contraindication for use

  8. Metformin – Bottom line • Clearly the first line. • Cheap • Improves physiology • Has other benefits. • Unfortunately, significant proportion of patients has contraindications or cannot tolerate it.

  9. SULPHONYLUREAS • Marcel Janbon and co-workers discovered hypoglycemic effect of sulfonylurea in 1942. • They were studying sulfonamide antibiotics and discovered that the compound sulfonylurea induced hypoglycemia in animals

  10. Sulphonylureas First sulfonylurea for treatment of DM introduced in 1955. General structure:

  11. Sulphonylurea • First generation – Binds to the proteins in the blood. • Tolbutamide • Chlorpropamide • Tolazamide • Acetohexamide • Carbutamide

  12. Sulphonylurea • Second generation – Not bound to serum proteins. • Glipizide • Glyburide (glibenclamide) • Gliclazide • Glibornuride • Gliquidone • Glisoxepide • Glyclopyramide

  13. Sulphonylurea • Third generation • Glimepiride

  14. SUFONYLUREAS

  15. Sulfonylurea • Advantages • Fast acting • Once a day dosing • Gliclazide may be particularly beneficial • Disadvantages • Risk of hypoglycemia • Weight gain • Possible problems with ischemic preconditioning

  16. Glicilizide • Inhibits platelet aggregation • Associated with lower mortality from malignant neoplasms. • Improves repair of DNA damage caused by oxidative stress in tissue cultures.

  17. Sulfonylureas – Bottom line • Fast acting • Older ones are cheap • Do not improve physiology • Hypoglycemia is significant risk • Require strict regime of diet

  18. Meglitinides • Nategelinde • Repaglinide • Act on same potassium channel as sulfonylurea but bind to different part of the molecule. • Short acting – taken 0-30 min before meal. • Risk of hypoglycemia is small

  19. Meglitinides – Bottom line • Useful in small number of patients for relatively short period of time. • Allow for some flexibility in timing of the meals.

  20. TZD-s – actually Pioglitazone • The proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) and to a lesser extent PPAR-α agonist in the muscle, adipose tissue, and the liver. • Pioglitazone reduces insulin resistance in the liver and peripheral tissues. • Pioglitazone decreases the level of triglycerides and increases HDL without changing LDL and total cholesterol.

  21. Pioglitazone • Pioglitazone - 15 - 30 - 45 mg pills • Peripheral edema is main side effect. • More hospitalizations for CHF in studies with all • TZD-s • Effect is maintained when combined with metformin and incretin based therapies.

  22. Thiazolidinediones and bladder cancer. Colmers IN, et al. CMAJ 2012I:10.1503

  23. TZD-s and fracture risk Toulis KA, et al. CMAJ, 2009, 180 (8) 841-842

  24. TZD-s and fractures TZD-s are associated with fractures in females over 50 years of age. In men risk is increased if TZD-s are used with loop diuretic Bilik D, et al. JCEM. 2010 (10) 1210.

  25. Bottom line on Pioglitazone • Benefits are still higher than risks. • There is some evidence that lower dose is not associated with risk of bladder cancer. • However – at this time Metformin and PPD-4 inhibitors are clearly ahead of Pioglitazone as choices for treatment.

  26. Incretins Gut-derived hormones, secreted in response to nutrient ingestion, that potentiate insulin secretion from islet cells in a glucose-dependent fashion, and lower glucagon secretion from islet  cells Two predominant incretins: Glucagon-like peptide–1 (GLP-1) Glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) (also known as gastric inhibitory peptide) Incretin effect is impaired in type 2 diabetes Known as GLP-1 deficiency

  27. Incretin system and DPP-4 physiologic action

  32. Comparison of Incretin Modulators GLP-1=glucagon-like peptide–1; DDP-4=dipeptidyl peptidase–4

  33. DPP – 4 inhibitors • Sitagliptin • Saxagliptin • Linagliptoin • Alogliptin • Vildagliptin – marketed in EU • More in development • Gemigliptin

  34. DPP4 inhibitors • All taken once a day • Sitaglipitin 100 mg daily • 50 mg if Cr 1.7-3.0 for men and 1.5-2.5 for women • 25 mg in ESRD • Saxagliptin 5 mg per day • 2.5 mg in renal impairment • 2.5 if taken with cytochrome P450 inhibitors (ketoconazole) • Linagliptin 5 mg daily

  35. Sitagliptin - example

  36. DPP-4 inhibitors • Side effects are minimal • Acute pancreatitis is seen • Linagliptin 15.2/10.000 patients • Placebo 3.7/10,000 patients • Saxaglipin – No data but some postmarketing cases are reported • Sitagliptin – There is 88 cases in 2.5 years in postmarketing reporting.

  37. DDP-4 inhibitors – Bottom Line • Very well tolerated • Improve physiology • Expensive • So far, no serious adverse effects with long term use. • No increased risk of pancreatic caner.

  38. Alpha-Glucosidase inhibitors • Acarbose - 25, 50 or 100 mg tablets • Miglitol - 25, 50 and 100 mg tablets • They block intestinal enzyme breaking sugars to monosaccharides. • This slows down and blocks some of carbohydrate absorption. • Postprandial peak is diminshed and Hba1c improves.

  39. Alpha-Glucosidase inhibitors

  40. Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors • Taken with each meal. • Side effects are flatulence and diarrhea • This can be diminished with low carb, high fiber diet and slow titration of the dose form 25 mg to 100 mg per day. • Very low risk of hypoglycemia

  41. Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors – Bottom line • Very useful if tolerated • Relatively cheap.

  42. Bromocriptine • Bromocriptine mesylate given within 2 hours of waking up in the morning improves glycemic control by unknown mechanism. • It is given in escalating dose starting with 0.8 mg and increasing by 0.8 mg every week to maximal tolerated dose. • Therapeutic dose is between 1.6 to 4.8 mg per day. • Very low risk of hypoglycemia. • About 25% of patients experience some nausea.

  43. Bromocriptine

  44. Bromocriptine

  45. Bromocriptine – Bottom line • Useful if tolerated. • Still expensive • Many patients are discuoraged by need to use 2-6 pills at once (In US only 0.8 mg pill is available).

  46. Bile acid sequestrants • Colesevelam • Cholestyramine • Colestid • Mechanism is unknown • In db/db mice these drugs increase metabolic utilization of glucose in peripheral tissues which corelates with decrease in muscle long chain acylcarnitine content Meissner M, et al. PLOS 2011 (6)11 e24564.
