    To assess the efficacy and safety of sodium‐glucose co‐transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors plus a dipeptidyl peptidase‐4 (DPP‐4) inhibitor in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), we performed a systematic review and meta‐analysis of 14 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving 4828 patients. Compared with a DPP‐4 inhibitor, SGLT2 inhibitor/DPP‐4 inhibitor combination therapy was significantly associated with a decrease in glycaemic control (HbA1c, −0.71%; fasting plasma glucose [FPG], −25.62 mg/dL; postprandial plasma glucose, −44.00 mg/dL), body weight (−2.05 kg) and systolic blood pressure (−5.90 mm Hg), but an increase in total cholesterol (TC) of 3.24%, high‐density lipoprotein of 6.15% and low‐density lipoprotein of 2.55%. Adding a DPP‐4 inhibitor to an SGLT2 inhibitor could reduce HbA1c by −0.31%, FPG by −8.94 mg/dL, TC by −1.48% and triglycerides by −3.25%. Interestingly, low doses of an SGLT2 inhibitor in the combination has similar or even better efficacy in some aspects than high doses. Similar adverse events were observed for the combination therapy, with the exception of genital infection vs DPP‐4 inhibitor (risk ratio [RR], 5.31) and consistent genital infection vs an SGLT2 inhibitor (RR, 0.61). Further studies are warranted to confirm these results.

    Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors and risk of adverse renal outcomes among patients with type 2 diabetes: A network and cumulative meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
    (Wiley, 2017-08) Tang, Huilin; Li, Dandan; Zhang, Jingjing; Li, Yufeng; Wang, Tiansheng; Zhai, Suodi; Song, Yiqing; Epidemiology, School of Public Health
    Aim To compare the associations of individual sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors with adverse renal outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods PubMed, EMBASE, CENTRAL and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched for studies published up to May 24, 2016, without language or date restrictions. Randomized trials that reported at least 1 renal-related adverse outcome in patients with T2DM treated with SGLT2 inhibitors were included. Pairwise and network meta-analyses were carried out to calculate the odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs), and a cumulative meta-analysis was performed to assess the robustness of evidence. Results In total, we extracted 1334 composite renal events among 39 741 patients from 58 trials, and 511 acute renal impairment/failure events among 36 716 patients from 53 trials. Dapagliflozin was significantly associated with a greater risk of composite renal events than placebo (OR 1.64, 95% CI 1.26-2.13). Empagliflozin seemed to confer a lower risk than placebo (OR 0.63, 95% CI 0.54-0.72), canagliflozin (OR 0.48, 95% CI 0.29-0.82) and dapagliflozin (OR 0.38, 95% CI 0.28-0.51). With regard to acute renal impairment/failure, only empagliflozin was significantly associated with a lower risk than placebo (OR 0.72, 95% CI 0.60-0.86). The cumulative meta-analysis indicated the robustness of our significant findings. Conclusions The present meta-analysis indicated that dapagliflozin may increase the risk of adverse renal events, while empagliflozin may have a protective effect among patients with T2DM. Further data from large well-conducted randomized controlled trials and a real-world setting are warranted.
