2008 FDA Guidance and the Focus on Atherosclerotic CV Events

Guidance for IndustrySponsors should establish an independent cardiovascular endpoints committee to prospectively adjudicate, in a blinded fashion, cardiovascular events during all phase 2 and phase 3 trials. These events should include cardiovascular mortality, myocardial infarction, and stroke, and can include hospitalization for acute coronary syndrome, urgent revascularization procedures, and possibly other endpoints.

• For patients with T2D and active CVD, if already on dual therapy or multiple glucose-lowering therapies but not an SGLT2 inhibitor or a GLP-1 receptor agonist, consider switching to one of these agents for the proven CV benefit

• Further, even if patients with comorbid T2D and CVD are already at goal A1C, introduce an SGLT2 inhibitor or a GLP-1 receptor agonist for the CV benefit independent of A1C

Patient Case

Mary is a 57-year-old office manager. It has been 3 months since her last office visit. During that time, she presented to the ED with substernal chest discomfort and non-STEMI.

She underwent stenting of her RCA and was noted to have a 70% lesion of her LAD artery. She completed cardiac rehab and is feeling well, but she notes some intermittent ankle edema.

A transthoracic echocardiogram showed an EF of 45% with some inferior wall hypokinesis. She denies dyspnea, but states she is still fatigued and not yet back to baseline.

B. Switch from DPP-4i to a GLP-1RA

C. Switch from DPP-4i to a SGLT2i

D. Increase the insulin dose

What would be your preferred approach to addressing Mary’s T2D treatment regimen?

GLP-1RA is the better choice1,2

• eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m2

• Lower limb ulcers present?

• Frequent genital mycotic infections or UTI

• More A1C reduction needed

• Patient preference

SGLT2i is the better choice1,2

• HF or CKD predominates

• Active gallbladder disease or pancreatitis

• Personal or FH of medullary thyroid cancer

• Patient preference

What Factors Should We Consider in Choosing between a GLP-1RA and an SGLT2i?

Either class of agent potentially could be used by many patients1
