Background: This phase 3 study compared once-weekly dulaglutide (DU) to titrated daily insulin glargine (IG), both combined with insulin lispro, in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients with moderate-tosevere chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 3-4.

Methods: Participants were randomised (1:1:1) to DU 1.5mg or DU 0.75mg or IG.

Objective: To demonstrate DU noninferiority for A1c change from baseline at 26 weeks.

Results: Baseline characteristics (N = 576) included: [mean ± SD] age 64.6 ± 8.6years, A1c 8.6 ± 1.0%, eGFR 38.3 ± 12.8mL/min/1.73m2, BMI 32.5 ± 5.2kg/m2, daily insulin dose 58.2 ± 31.8 units. DU was non-inferior to IG for A1c change from baseline at 26 weeks (LSM (SE); -1.2 (0.1)% DU 1.5mg and -1.1 (0.1)% DU 0.75mg, versus -1.1 (0.1)% IG; 1-sided p < 0.001 for both DU doses versus IG); similar results were observed at 52 weeks. Body weight decreased with DU and increased with IG (at 52 weeks: -2.7 (0.5)kg DU 1.5mg and -1.7 (0.4)kg DU 0.75mg, versus +1.6 (0.4)kg IG, 2-sided p < 0.001). The hypoglycaemia rate (glucose ≤ 70 mg/dL) was lower with DU 1.5mg and 0.75mg versus IG (at 52 weeks: 5.8, 7.6 versus 14.4 events/participant/year; p < 0.001, p = 0.004, respectively). Severe hypoglycaemia was less in DU 1.5mg compared to IG (0 in DU 1.5mg, 5 [2.6%] in DU 0.75mg, and 13 [6.7%] in IG). Nausea, vomiting and diarrhea were more common with DU 1.5mg (19.8%, 13.5%, 17.2%) and 0.75mg (14.2%, 8.4%, 15.8%) versus IG (4.6%, 4.6%, 7.2%).

Conclusions: DU produced comparable glycaemic control, greater weight loss, and lower hypoglycaemia rate versus IG in T2D patients with CKD stage 3-4, with the anticipated gastrointestinal side effects.

BP-2 DULAGLUTDE TREATMENT IS ASSOCIATED WITH LESS EGFR DECLINE AND GREATER REDUCTION IN ALBUMINURIA IN TYPE 2 DIABETES AND CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE STAGE 3-4 (AWARD-7)

Introduction: In short-term studies, dulaglutide (DU) reduced albuminuria and did not change estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients with normal kidney function. Methods: The AWARD-7 phase 3 trial compared weekly DU (1.5 or 0.75 mg) to daily insulin glargine (IG), both with insulin lispro, in participants with T2D and chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 3-4. Results: Baseline (BL) characteristics (N = 576) were: eGFR CKD-Epidemiology Collaboration: 38 ± 13 mL/min/1.73 m2 (mean ± SD), urine albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR, mean [median]): 847.2 mg/g (209.3 mg/g), age: 65 ± 9 years, A1c: 8.6 ± 1.0%, duration of T2D: 18 ± 9 years. After 52 weeks, glycemic control was similar for the three treatment arms, both doses of DU proving noninferior to IG for the change in A1c. Mean eGFR (mL/min/1.73 m2 [95% confidence interval]) was not statistically different from BL with DU 1.5 mg (-1.1 [-2.04, 0.2]), while it decreased with DU 0.75 mg (-1.5 [-2.08, -0.2], 2-sided p300 mg/g (N = 258). Conclusion: In participants with T2D and CKD stages 3-4, overall effects on eGFR and UACR were mainly driven by lesser eGFR decline and greater UACR reduction in the DU 1.5 mg group vs IG in participants with UACR > 300 mg/g.

Background Dulaglutide (DU), a GLP-1 receptor agonist with a half-life of ~5 days, is administered once weekly in patients with type 2 diabetes. In this post hoc analysis of AWARD-3, the sustainability of DU glycemic effect over a 7-day interval at steady state (attained between 2-4 weeks of dosing) was assessed. AWARD-3 was considered for this analysis as it was the only monotherapy study of DU. Methods Within 1 week prior to the Week 26 visit, patients were asked to collect 8-point self-monitored blood glucose (SMBG) profiles on any 2 non-consecutive days. All evaluable SMBG profiles with valid dosing dates were segregated according to Days 1-7 of a dosing interval. SMBG data on DU peak (Day 2/3) and trough (Day 6/7) plasma concentration days were tested for equivalence. A mixed effect model with random intercept and the time of SMBG collection (peak/trough) as a single covariate, was fitted for statistical analysis. Results Mean daily SMBG concentrations were found to be equivalent between DU peak and trough days for both doses (Table). Model-predicted DU concentrations (90% prediction interval) also remained above the minimum effective concentration throughout the 7-day period. Conclusion Throughout the weekly dosing interval at steady state, DU has a similar effect on blood glucose control during peak and trough plasma concentration days, as assessed by the change in mean daily SMBG concentrations.
