Abstract
Background: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) and sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2I) are associated with significant cardiovascular benefit in type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, GLP-1RA or SGLT-2I alone may not improve some cardiovascular outcomes in patients with prior cardiovascular co-morbidities.
Aim: To explore whether combining GLP-1RA and SGLT-2I can achieve additional benefit in preventing cardiovascular diseases in T2D.
Methods: The systematic review was conducted according to PRISMA recommendations. The protocol was registered on PROSPERO (ID: 42022385007). A total of 107049 participants from eligible cardiovascular outcomes trials of GLP-1RA and SGLT-2I were included in network meta-regressions to estimate cardiovascular benefit of the combination treatment. Effect modification of prior myocardial infarction (MI) and heart failure (HF) was also explored to provide clinical insight as to when the combination treatment should be considered.
Results: The estimated hazard ratios (HR)GLP-1RA/SGLT-2IvsPlacebo (0.75-0.98) and HRCombinationvsGLP-1RA/SGLT-2I (0.26-0.86) for primary and secondary cardiovascular outcomes suggested that the combination treatment may achieve additional cardiovascular benefit compared with GLP-1RA or SGLT-2I alone. In patients with prior MI or HF, the mono-therapies may not improve the overall cardiovascular outcomes, as the estimated HRMI+/HF+ (0.57-1.52) suggested that GLP-1RA or SGLT-2I alone may be associated with lower risks of hospitalization for HF but not cardiovascular death.
Conclusion: Considering its greater cardiovascular benefit in T2D, the combination treatment of GLP-1RA and SGLT-2I might be prioritized in patients with prior MI or HF, where the monotherapies may not provide sufficient cardiovascular protection.
期刊介绍：
The WJD is a high-quality, peer reviewed, open-access journal. The primary task of WJD is to rapidly publish high-quality original articles, reviews, editorials, and case reports in the field of diabetes. In order to promote productive academic communication, the peer review process for the WJD is transparent; to this end, all published manuscripts are accompanied by the anonymized reviewers’ comments as well as the authors’ responses. The primary aims of the WJD are to improve diagnostic, therapeutic and preventive modalities and the skills of clinicians and to guide clinical practice in diabetes. Scope: Diabetes Complications, Experimental Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Diabetes, Gestational, Diabetic Angiopathies, Diabetic Cardiomyopathies, Diabetic Coma, Diabetic Ketoacidosis, Diabetic Nephropathies, Diabetic Neuropathies, Donohue Syndrome, Fetal Macrosomia, and Prediabetic State.
