Abstract
Aims/Introduction
PIONEER REAL Japan was a non-interventional prospective study of oral semaglutide in adults with type 2 diabetes in Japanese clinical practice.
Materials and Methods
Adults naïve to injectable glucose-lowering therapies initiated oral semaglutide in routine clinical practice and were followed for 34–44 weeks. The primary endpoint was change in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) from baseline to end of study; the co-primary endpoint was number of adverse events (AEs). Secondary endpoints included change in bodyweight from baseline to end of study. Analyses were also carried out for subgroups aged <75 and ≥75 years.
Results
A total of 624 participants initiated oral semaglutide; 578 completed the study. Mean baseline HbA1c and bodyweight were 7.7% and 72.4 kg, respectively. At end of study, estimated change (95% confidence interval [CI]) in HbA1c from baseline was −0.7 percentage points (−0.77, −0.61) overall, −0.8 percentage points (−0.86, −0.67) in the <75 years subgroup and −0.5 percentage points (−0.68, −0.41) in the ≥75 years subgroup (all P < 0.0001). Estimated change (95% CI) in bodyweight was −2.8 (−3.19, −2.50) kg overall, −2.9 (−3.38, −2.49) kg in the <75 years subgroup and − 2.7 (−3.18, −2.14) kg in the ≥75 years subgroup (all P < 0.0001). AEs occurred in 161 (25.8%) participants: 99 of 423 (23.4%) and 62 of 201 (30.8%) participants in the <75 and ≥75 years subgroups, respectively. Gastrointestinal AEs were the AEs most frequently leading to oral semaglutide discontinuation.
Conclusions
In routine clinical practice, HbA1c and bodyweight were significantly reduced from baseline in adults initiating oral semaglutide, including those aged ≥75 years, with no new safety concerns.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Diabetes Investigation is your core diabetes journal from Asia; the official journal of the Asian Association for the Study of Diabetes (AASD). The journal publishes original research, country reports, commentaries, reviews, mini-reviews, case reports, letters, as well as editorials and news. Embracing clinical and experimental research in diabetes and related areas, the Journal of Diabetes Investigation includes aspects of prevention, treatment, as well as molecular aspects and pathophysiology. Translational research focused on the exchange of ideas between clinicians and researchers is also welcome. Journal of Diabetes Investigation is indexed by Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE).
