The purpose of this study was to determine the important predictors of the efficacy of naïve use of DPP-4 inhibitors in Taiwanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D).Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted. Of the T2D patients, 193 (122 men) naïve DPP-4 inhibitor users with an age of 58.0 ± 12.6 years, disease duration 5.4 ± 4.7 years, body mass index (BMI) 26.1 ± 4.3 kg/m2, and estimated glomerular filtration rate 95.9 ± 27.0 mL/min/1.73M2 were assessed for △HbA1c in 6 months.Results: After 6 months of DPP-4 inhibitors use, mostly second or third line of OADs (2.8 ± 0.7 kinds of OADs), 193 T2D patients (mean baseline HbA1c: 8.4 ± 1.4%) had △HbA1c 1.1 ± 1.2% on average (P < 0.01). The group with a higher baseline HbA1c level had more effective efficacy (△HbA1c ≥0.5%) in lowering HbA1c. Single regression analysis showed that the change in HbA1c after 6 months of treatment was positively associated with the baseline HbA1c level (R = 0.71, P < 0.001). In addition, multiple regression analysis showed that contributors to decrease HbA1c level after 6 months were high baseline HbA1c level, low BMI, short T2D duration, and fewer kinds of OADs.Conclusion: Our study suggested that high baseline HbA1c level, low BMI, short T2D duration, and fewer kinds of OADs are the predictors of the efficacy of DPP-4 inhibitors in Taiwanese patients with T2D. The baseline HbA1c level, in particular, played the most important role in effective efficacy (△HbA1c ≥0.5%).Keywords: dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, type 2 diabetes, HbA1c, predictor of efficacyLin YHHuang HDove Medical Pressarticledipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitortype 2 diabeteshba1cpredictor of efficacySpecialties of internal medicineRC581-951ENDiabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy, Vol Volume 12, Pp 2725-2733 (2019)
