Cardiovascular and Renal Outcomes of Newer Anti-Diabetic Medications in High-Risk Patients.
Current Cardiology Reports 2018 June 22
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: We review the cardiovascular and renal outcomes and safety of newer anti-diabetic medications in high-risk patients. We examine the outcomes of the IRIS, EMPA-REG OUTCOME, CANVAS, LEADER, SAVOR-TIMI 53, and EXAMINE trials demonstrating the cardiovascular and renal benefits of thiazolidinediones, SGLT2 inhibitors, GLP-1 agonists, and DPP-4 inhibitors.
RECENT FINDINGS: Diabetes mellitus is a leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease with rising prevalence and disease burden. The microvascular and macrovascular complications of diabetes are well-recognized and include increased risk of cardiovascular disease, myocardial infarction, and stroke. Newer diabetes medications have demonstrated significant cerebrovascular, cardiovascular, renal, and mortality benefits in high risk patients with diabetes. In addition to their glucose-lowering effects, the thiazolidinedione pioglitazone, SGLT2 inhibitors, GLP-1 agonist, and DPP-4 inhibitors have demonstrated significant cerebrovascular, cardiovascular, renal, and mortality effects. The outcomes and safety data of newer diabetes medications from recent trials demonstrate cardiovascular and mortality effects with significant implications for clinical practice.
