However, information regarding the effects of switching DPP-4 inhibitors is limited, especially in older patients.Research Design and Methods: We investigated whether switching from linagliptin to teneligliptin decreases blood glucose in older (≥ 65 years) T2D patients. In total, 164 patients with T2D who switched from linagliptin to teneligliptin for > 12 weeks were included and the primary outcome was glycemic changes.Results: Switching from linagliptin to teneligliptin ameliorated fasting blood glucose (148.1 ± 47.1 to 139.6 ± 43.4 mg/dL), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c; 7.9 ± 1.3 to 7.5 ± 1.2%), and postprandial blood glucose (224.8 ± 77.4 to 205.8 ± 70.8 mg/dL) levels (all P < 0.05). Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration was reduced while liver and kidney functions were maintained. Subgroup analysis showed that glucose control improved more in patients with uncontrolled hyperglycemia (HbA1c > 8.0%) and chronic kidney disease (estimated glomerular filtration rate < 90 mL/min/1.73m2). Multiple logistic analysis indicated higher baseline HbA1c was the strongest predictor of teneligliptin switching response.Conclusion: Switching from linagliptin to teneligliptin helps maintain kidney function and reduce blood glucose safely in older patients with T2D.Keywords: dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitor, linagliptin, teneligliptin, type 2 diabetes mellitus, older patients, chronic kidney disease |
