摘要

背景在已完成的两项2期研究中，每周注射一次的胰高血糖素样肽-1受体激动剂维塞那肽显示出有效的血糖控制和良好的耐受性，且无需剂量滴定。这项多中心 3 期临床研究包括 24 周随机、安慰剂对照、双盲期和 28 周开放标签延长治疗期。年龄≥18岁和≤75岁、糖化血红蛋白（HbA1c）≥7.0%和≤10.5%[≥53.0和≤91.27 mmol/mol]的患者（N = 620）按1:1的比例随机分配，在双盲期每周一次皮下注射维塞那肽150微克或安慰剂。随后，安慰剂组患者转为接受维塞庚那肽治疗（安慰剂→维塞庚那肽组），维塞庚那肽组患者在开放标签延长治疗期内继续接受同样的治疗。研究结果第24周时，维塞那肽的安慰剂调整后最小二乘法均值（LSM）变化为-0.57%（95% CI -0.71至-0.43）（p <0.001）。与安慰剂组相比，维塞那肽组达到 HbA1c <7.0%和≤6.5% [<53 和≤48 mmol/mol]的患者比例更高（115 [40.5%] vs 50 [17.9%]；p <0.001；60 [21.1%] vs 17 [6.1%]；p <0.001）。与安慰剂相比，维塞那肽可显著降低空腹血浆葡萄糖和餐后 2 小时血糖。在开放标签延长治疗期间，这些变量的改善趋势得以保持。在为期52周的研究期间，没有严重胃肠道不良事件或严重低血糖的报道。解释作为二甲双胍治疗的附加疗法，每周注射一次150微克的维培那肽可显著改善二甲双胍单药治疗控制不佳的中国T2DM患者的血糖控制，且耐受性良好。

Efficacy and safety of visepegenatide as an add-on therapy to metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes: a randomised, double-blind, parallel, placebo-controlled, phase 3 study

Background

Visepegenatide, a once-weekly glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist injection, demonstrated effective glycaemic control and good tolerability without the requirement of dose titration in the two completed phase 2 studies. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of visepegenatide in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) inadequately controlled by metformin monotherapy in this phase 3 clinical study.

Methods

This multicentre phase 3 clinical study included a 24-week, randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind period followed by a 28-week open-label extended treatment period. Patients (N = 620) aged ≥18 and ≤75 years with glycated haemoglobin (HbA_1c) ≥7.0% and ≤10.5% [≥53.0 and ≤91.27 mmol/mol], were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive visepegenatide 150-μg or placebo once-weekly subcutaneous injection during the double-blind period. Subsequently, the patients in the placebo group were switched to visepegenatide treatment (placebo→visepegenatide group), and the patients in the visepegenatide group continued the same treatment during the open-label extended treatment period. The primary endpoint was the change in HbA_1c from baseline to week 24.

Findings

At week 24, the placebo-adjusted least squares mean (LSM) change of HbA_1c was −0.57% (95% CI −0.71 to −0.43) with visepegenatide (p < 0.001). The proportion of patients achieving HbA_1c < 7.0% and ≤6.5% [<53 and ≤ 48 mmol/mol] was higher in the visepegenatide group versus the placebo group (115 [40.5%] vs 50 [17.9%]; p < 0.001, and 60 [21.1%] vs 17 [6.1%]; p < 0.001). Visepegenatide demonstrated a significant reduction in fasting plasma glucose and 2-h postprandial glucose compared with placebo. Trends in the improvement of these variables were maintained during the open-label extended treatment period. No severe gastrointestinal adverse event or severe hypoglycaemia was reported during the 52-week study period.

Interpretation

Once-weekly injection of visepegenatide 150 μg as an add-on treatment to metformin therapy significantly improved glycaemic control and was generally well tolerated in Chinese patients with T2DM who were inadequately controlled with metformin monotherapy.
