Efficacy and safety of enavogliflozin versus dapagliflozin added to metformin plus gemigliptin treatment in patients with type 2 diabetes: A double-blind, randomized, comparator-active study: ENHANCE-D study

초록

Aims This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of enavogliflozin, a novel sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor, versus dapagliflozin in Korean patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) inadequately controlled with metformin and gemigliptin. Methods In this multicenter, double-blind, randomized study, patients with inadequate response to metformin (≥ 1000 mg/day) plus gemigliptin (50 mg/day) were randomized to receive enavogliflozin 0.3 mg/day (n = 134) or dapagliflozin 10 mg/day (n = 136) in addition to the metformin plus gemigliptin therapy. The primary endpoint was change in HbA1c from baseline to week 24. Results Both treatments significantly reduced HbA1c at week 24 (–0.92% in enavogliflozin group, –0.86% in dapagliflozin group). The enavogliflozin and dapagliflozin groups did not differ in terms of changes in HbA1c (between-group difference: –0.06%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: –0.19, 0.06) and fasting plasma glucose (between-group difference: –3.49 mg/dl [–8.08;1.10]). An increase in urine glucose-creatinine ratio was significantly greater in the enavogliflozin group than in the dapagliflozin group (60.2 g/g versus 43.5 g/g, P < 0.0001). The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events was similar between the groups (21.64% versus 23.53%). Conclusions Enavogliflozin, added to metformin plus gemigliptin, was well tolerated and as effective as dapagliflozin in the treatment of patients with T2DM.
