After food ingestion
GLP-1 is secreted from theL-cells of the jejunum
& ileum
That in turn…
• Stimulates glucose-dependent insulin secretion
• Suppresses glucagon secretion
• Slows gastric emptying
• Leads to reduction of food intake
• Improves insulin sensitivity
Longtime effects in animal models:
• Increase of β-cell mass and improved β-cell function

Treatment Guidelines for Type 2 Diabetes
*Capillary glucose† May not be achievable with as manyt as 5 anytihypertensive drugs in some individuals; use higher targets where there is a risk of postural hypertension‡With statin treatment for patients>40 y.o. or with evidence of cardiovascular disease§Consider use of fibrates to achieve thee goals once LDL-C is controlled

Pharmacokinetics of Sitagliptin Supports Once-Daily Dosing
• With once-daily administration, trough (at 24 hrs) DPP-4 inhibition is ~80%– ≥80% inhibition provides full enhancement of active incretin
levels• No effect of food on pharmacokinetics • Well absorbed following oral dosing • Low protein binding • Primarily renal excretion as parent drug
– Approximately 80% of a dose recovered as intact drug in urine• No clinically important drug-drug interactions
– No meaningful P450 system inhibition or activation
ADA 2006 Late Breaking Clinical Presentation (Stein).
Incretin based therapy in diabetes
• Incretin hormone secretion and actions are impaired in type 2 diabetes.
• Although β-cell responsiveness to GLP-1 is reduced, exogenous GLP-1 can still restore β-cell sensitivity to glucose and improve glucose-induced insulin secretion.
• A GLP-1 based therapy of type 2 diabetes may therefore be expected to– Reduce hyperglycaemia and HbA1c levels– Improve β-cell function– Improve insulin sensitivity– Improve metabolism

• Neutral effect on body weight– In monotherapy studies, small decreases from baseline (~0.1 to 0.7 kg) with sitagliptin;
slightly greater reductions with placebo (~0.7 to 1.1 kg)– In combination studies, weight changes with sitagliptin similar to placebo-treated patients

– No increase in patients meeting PDLC (> 20% increase and > ULN) for WBC or ANC; no increase in bands/earlier WBC forms

– Small decrease ALT (-1 mIU/mL), small/variable decrease in bili– In Phase II studies – similar reduction in total AP with metformin (-6.4 IUI/mL)

Summary: Mechanism of Action of the Co-administration of Sitagliptin Plus Metformin
• Co-administration of sitagliptin and metformin addresses the 3 core defects of type 2 diabetes in a complementary manner
• Sitagliptin and metformin have different but complementary mechanisms of action– Metformin increases total GLP-1 → likely by enhancing GLP-1 release– By inhibition of DPP-4, sitagliptin increases levels of active GLP-1
• Co-administration of these drugs results in higher GLP-1 levels than when either drug is administered alone
• Co-administration of sitagliptin and metformin results in a more than additive effect on both pre- and post-prandial active GLP-1 concentrations

Summary: Sitagliptin or Glipizide as Add-on Combination With Metformin
Efficacy profile– Comparable efficacy in lowering HbA1c
– Both provided greater HbA1c reductions in patients with the highest baseline HbA1c
Safety profile– Both were generally well tolerated– Adverse event profiles (ie, serious and GI-related adverse events,
those leading to discontinuation) were similar, with the exception of hypoglycaemia
• Significantly lower incidence of hypoglycaemic episodes associated with sitagliptin with metformin
– Body weight significantly decreased for sitagliptin with metformin, but increased for glipizide with metformin

Summary: Initial Combination Therapy With Sitagliptin Plus Metformin Through 54 Weeks
Efficacy profile– Marked reductions in HbA1c for up to 54 weeks– Continued and substantial reductions in FPG and 2-hour PPG concentrations– Improved measures of β-cell function (HOMA-β; proinsulin-to-insulin ratio)– Provided greater HbA1c reductions in patients with the highest baseline HbA1c
Safety profile– Generally well tolerated– Discontinuation due to adverse events was low across
treatment groups – Adverse event profile similar to that observed with metformin
monotherapy, including gastrointestinal adverse events– Weight loss similar to that observed with metformin
monotherapy – Low incidences of hypoglycaemia

• Sitagliptin and metformin have complementary mechanisms of action that address all 3 core defects of type 2 diabetes – Improves HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose and post-prandial glucose
• As initial therapy, compared with metformin monotherapy, co-administration of sitagliptin with metformin provides improved efficacy without increased incidence of weight gain or hypoglycaemia – Provides an additive effect on the reduction of HbA1c
– Improves the markers of β-cell function – Has similar adverse event profile to metformin monotherapy
• Combination of therapy of sitagliptin as an add-on to sulfonylurea or as an add-on to sulfonylurea plus metformin resulted in a reduction in HbA1c and was generally well-tolerated

Efficacy profile– Provided sustained reduction in HbA1c for 24 weeks
Safety profile– Was generally well tolerated– No differences were observed in the incidence of clinical adverse events,
serious adverse events, or adverse events leading to treatment discontinuation between groups
– Provided modest increase in mean body weight in the overall cohort• Weight gain observed when added to glimepiride alone• Small numerical increase when added to the combination of glimepiride
and metformin– As expected, the incidence of hypoglycaemia increased when glimepiride,
a sulfonylurea, was co-administered with sitagliptin

63.9 ± 7.9%
72.6 ± 7.2%
Conclusions
In patients with CAD, metabolic manipulation with DPP4-inhibition to prevent degradation of GLP-1 can protect the heart from ischemic LV dysfunction during dobutamine stress and mitigate post- ischemic stunning. Global and regional wall LV performance was greater following sitaglipitin at peak stress and at 30 minutes into recovery compared to control .
Conclusions
The rise in plasma insulin was also reduced by sitagliptin which suggests that the beneficial effect on the heart was due to GLP-1 and not to insulin. At peak stress, sitagliptin improved both global function assessed by ejection fraction and mitral annular Vs, and regional wall function assessed by Vs, strain and strain rate. This was primarily driven by increasing the performance of the ischemic segments.
Conclusions
In the recovery period, there was evidence of post- ischemic stunning in the control scans with reduced global and regional wall function compared to baseline. However, sitagliptin protected the heart from ischemia and mitigated this effect.
Conclusions
The inhibition of DPP-4 augmented plasma levels of GLP-1 (7-36) which improved global and regional wall LV function during dobutamine stress and mitigated post-ischemic stunning in the recovery period. This was predominantly driven by a cardioprotective effect on ischemic segments and was independent of insulin.
Conclusion
• Incretin Based therapy in diabetes• can be used as monotherapy or in combination
therapy with other hypoglycemic agents• Safe, effective, provides long term glucose control• Benefits beyond glucose control• weight neutral or weight loss• probable CV benefits and beta cell mass
