TARGET AUDIENCE The educational design of this activity addresses the needs of cardiology, endocrinology, and diabetology clinicians involved in the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM).

EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES After completing this activity, the participant should be better able to:

PREAMBLE

• Describe the reciprocal pathophysiologic relationships between T2DM and cardiovascular disease (CVD), heart failure (HF), and chronic kidney disease (CKD), including treatment implications • Compare the designs and results of large-scale cardiovascular outcomes trials with sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors for T2DM • Discuss the mechanistic profiles, evidence for clinical benefits, and safety concerns associated with SGLT2 inhibitors as treatment options for patients with T2DM • Intensify treatment regimens for patients with T2DM based on glycemic targets, cardiovascular and renal risks, recent guideline recommendations, and other clinical parameters

STATEMENT OF NEED/PROGRAM OVERVIEW Diabetes disorders afflict more than 30 million Americans, while another 84 million adult Americans have prediabetes.1 Multisystem consequences of T2DM include CVD, HF, and CKD. The pathophysiologic mechanisms underlying T2DM, CVD, HF, and CKD share common characteristics: metabolic changes, a proinflammatory state, and oxidative stress.2 It is critical for providers to be aware of the heightened risk for poor outcomes in their patients with T2DM. Following several cardiovascular outcomes clinical trials with SGLT2 inhibitors, the American Diabetes Association recommends incorporating these agents (and other antihyperglycemic classes, such as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists), into treatment regimens for T2DM, particularly when CVD risks are elevated.3 The effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on renal glucose reabsorption, along with their ability to lower body weight, cardiac afterload, and blood pressure, translate to a reduction in renal and cardiac adverse events frequently associated with T2DM.4 The established relationships among T2DM, CVD, HF, and CKD necessitate individualized treatment to avoid or mitigate hyperglycemia and these common comorbidities. This live Clinical Issues™ program will address these topics to ensure attendees understand normal glucose homeostasis, the role of maladaptive reabsorption in T2DM, and the benefits SGLT2 inhibitors may have on common comorbidities associated with T2DM as well as their application in clinical practice.
