Basal insulin peglispro: Overview of a novel long-acting insulin with reduced peripheral effect resulting in a hepato-preferential action.
    Diabetes, obesity & metabolism, 2016, Volume: 18 Suppl 2

    Basal insulin peglispro (BIL) is a novel basal insulin with a flat, prolonged activity profile. BIL has been demonstrated in a dog model, in healthy men and in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) to have significant hepato-preferential action resulting from reduced peripheral activity. In the IMAGINE-Phase 3 clinical trial program, more than 6000 patients were included, of whom ~3900 received BIL. Of the 7 pivotal IMAGINE trials, 3 studies were double-blinded and 3 were in T1D patients. BIL consistently demonstrated a greater HbA1c reduction, less glycaemic variability and a clinically relevant reduction in the rates of nocturnal hypoglycaemia across comparator [glargine and isophane insulin (NPH)] studies. Trials using basal/bolus regimens had higher rates of total hypoglycaemia with BIL due to higher rates of daytime hypoglycaemia. Severe hypoglycaemia rates were similar to comparator among both patients with T1D or type 2 diabetes (T2D). T1D patients lost weight compared with glargine (GL). Patients with T2D tended to gain less weight with BIL than with glargine. Compared to glargine, BIL was associated with higher liver fat, triglycerides and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels, including a higher frequency of elevation of ALT ≥3 times the upper limit of normal, but without severe, acute drug-induced liver injury. Injection site reactions, primarily lipohypertrophy, were more frequent with BIL. In conclusion, BIL demonstrated better glycaemic control with reduced glucose variability and nocturnal hypoglycaemia but higher triglycerides, ALT and liver fat relative to conventional comparator insulin. The hepato-preferential action of BIL with reduced peripheral activity may account for these findings.

Effects of insulin detemir and NPH insulin on renal handling of sodium, fluid retention and weight in type 2 diabetic patients.
    Diabetologia, 2012, Volume: 55, Issue:1

    In type 2 diabetic patients, insulin detemir (B29Lys(ε-tetradecanoyl),desB30 human insulin) induces less weight gain than NPH insulin. Due to the proposed reduction of tubular action by insulin detemir, type 2 diabetic patients should have increased urinary sodium excretion, thereby reducing extracellular volume and body weight when changed from NPH insulin to insulin detemir.. In a randomised, open-labelled, two-way crossover study of 24 patients with type 2 diabetes, patients were first treated with NPH insulin or insulin detemir for 8 weeks. Thereafter, they were changed to the other insulin for 8 weeks. In a third 1 week period, they were changed back to the first insulin.. At the end of 8 weeks, body weight was reduced by 0.8 ± 0.2 kg (mean ± SEM) on insulin detemir compared with NPH insulin (p < 0.01). After insulin detemir treatment, we also observed a significant reduction of lean body mass (0.8 ± 0.2 kg, p < 0.05) and a non-significant reduction of extracellular volume (0.8 ± 0.5 l/1.73 m², p = 0.14). The weight loss occurred after as early as 1 week (0.8 ± 0.2 kg, p < 0.001), with a simultaneous and transient increase of urinary sodium excretion (p = 0.07).. Insulin detemir induces significant and sustained weight loss, which is first observed at 1 week after changing from NPH insulin. The initial weight loss seems to be related to changes in fluid volume and may reflect changed insulin action in the kidneys.

An increased dose of insulin detemir improves glycaemic control and reduces body weight of Japanese patients with diabetes.
    International journal of clinical practice, 2010, Volume: 64, Issue:11

    The aim of study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of insulin detemir as a basal insulin switching from neutral protamine Hagedorn insulin (NPH) and insulin glargine in patients with diabetes on an intensive insulin therapy regimen.. This 6-month multicentre, prospective, treat-to-target [glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA(1c) ) less than 6.5%] trial included 92 people with diabetes (61 type 1, 29 type 2 and two unknown diabetes types). Detemir was administered first with fixed dose and injection times and then adapted to optimal dose after 3 months.. Mean HbA(1c) (%) of all the subjects at months 4 to 6 of the study was improved compared with month 0 (7.34 ± 0.87, 7.28 ± 0.88, 7.25 ± 0.93 vs. 7.55 ± 1.18; p < 0.05 paired t-test). However, significant improvement was seen only among the patients who had previously used NPH as a basal insulin. Twice-daily injection of basal insulin increased among people in the type 1 previously injected insulin glargine. Total insulin dose increased in the type 1 glargine group. The mean body weight change in the highest quartile body mass index (BMI) group was from 70.7 to 69.3 kg over the 6 months. Quality of life (QoL) relating to the patients' glycaemic control tended to improve without a change in frequency of hypoglycaemia.. The results suggest that insulin detemir has a greater effect on glycaemic control in subjects with poor glycaemic control using NPH; can reduce or maintain body weight in obese patients; and obtains perceptive stability for patients with unstable glycaemic control.

Reduced weight gain with insulin detemir compared to NPH insulin is not explained by a reduction in hypoglycemia.
    Diabetes technology & therapeutics, 2008, Volume: 10, Issue:4

    Weight gain often occurs when insulin therapy is initiated. The long-acting insulin analog insulin detemir has been shown to be effective and well tolerated when used in basal-bolus regimens or as an add-on to oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) and causes less weight gain than other insulins. The aim of this exploratory analysis was to investigate any correlations between weight change and occurrence of hypoglycemia with NPH insulin and insulin detemir.. The analysis was based on a 26-week, randomized, multicenter, open-label, parallel-group trial in which glycemic control, hypoglycemia, and weight change were compared between insulin detemir and NPH insulin. A total of 476 insulin-naive patients with type 2 diabetes treated with one or two OADs added insulin detemir (n=237) or NPH insulin (n=239) morning and evening to their current oral treatment. Weight gain data from this study were analyzed as a function of hypoglycemia frequency.. Both groups achieved excellent glycosylated hemoglobin control (insulin detemir, 6.6%; NPH insulin, 6.5% [difference not significant]). Weight gain with insulin detemir was less than half that of NPH insulin (1.2 vs. 2.8 kg, respectively [P<0.001]), and the overall risk of hypoglycemia was 47% lower with insulin detemir (P<0.001). No significant relationship between hypoglycemia and weight gain was seen with insulin detemir (P=0.2), while a statistically significant correlation was found for NPH insulin (P=0.003).. Hypoglycemia is predictive of weight gain with NPH insulin, but the same relationship is not seen with insulin detemir. It is therefore likely that the weight-sparing effect of insulin detemir involves other mechanisms.

Comparison of three multiple injection regimens for Type 1 diabetes: morning plus dinner or bedtime administration of insulin detemir vs. morning plus bedtime NPH insulin.
    Diabetic medicine : a journal of the British Diabetic Association, 2005, Volume: 22, Issue:7

    This trial investigated the efficacy and safety of two different administration-time regimens with insulin detemir (IDet) to that of a conventional basal insulin regimen with NPH insulin (NPH).. This multinational, 16-week, open, parallel group trial included 400 people with Type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM) randomized to IDet either morning and before dinner (IDetmorn+din) or morning and bedtime (IDetmorn+bed), or to NPH morning and bedtime (NPHmorn+bed), all in combination with mealtime insulin aspart (IAsp).. HbA1c was comparable between the three groups after 16 weeks (P = 0.64), with reductions of 0.39-0.49% points. Lower fasting plasma glucose (FPG) was observed with IDetmorn+din and IDetmorn+bed compared with NPHmorn+bed (9.8 and 9.1 vs. 11.1 mmol/l, P = 0.006), whereas the IDet groups did not differ (P = 0.15). Within-person variation in self-measured FPG was significantly lower for both IDet regimens (sd IDetmorn+din 2.5, IDetmorn+bed 2.6 mmol/l) than for NPHmorn+bed (sd 3.1 mmol/l, P < 0.001), but was comparable between the IDet groups (P = 0.48). Ten-point plasma glucose profiles were lower between dinner and breakfast in the IDetmorn+din group (P = 0.043), compared with the two other groups. Risk of overall and nocturnal hypoglycaemia was similar for the three groups. Lower mean bodyweight was observed with IDet compared with NPH after 16 weeks (difference: (IDetmorn+din)-1.3 kg, P < 0.001, (IDetmorn+bed)-0.6 kg, P = 0.050).. Both IDet regimens were well tolerated and provided lower and less variable glucose levels with no, or less, weight gain than NPH at comparable HbA1c. IDet can be administered either at dinner or bedtime, with similar glycaemic control according to the need of the individual person.

Examining and interpreting responsiveness of the Diabetes Medication Satisfaction measure.
    Journal of medical economics, 2009, Volume: 12, Issue:4

    Treatment satisfaction (TS) is an important patient reported outcome (PRO) in diabetes as it is correlated with outcomes necessary for optimal treatment (e.g., compliance, self-management behaviour). The objective of this study was to examine the responsiveness of the DiabMedSat, a disease-specific PRO measure, assessing Overall, Burden, Efficacy and Symptom TS.. The DiabMedSat was included in an open label, observational study of the safety and efficacy of biphasic insulin aspart 30 (NovoMix 30) in routine practice with type 2 diabetes. Responsiveness analyses, examining both internal and external responsiveness, were conducted and minimally important differences (MID) assessed.. In 18,817 patients, all TS scores significantly improved after 26 weeks of treatment (p<0.001). The effect sizes for these changes were above 0.5 indicating that the ability to detect change was moderate-to-large in size. Significant differences were found for all TS scores comparing patients who met their HbA(1c) goal, who improved but did not meet goal and who did not improve (p<0.01), and for patients who experienced a minor hypoglycaemic event and those who did not (p<0.001). DiabMedSat scores were able to detect changes in patients' own global rating of satisfaction (MID ranging from 5.3 to 11.7) and in physician-rated satisfaction with patients' HbA(1c) improvement (MID ranging from 5.3 to 10.2).. In the context of an observational study, the DiabMedSat has been shown to be highly responsive to change and can be considered as an acceptable PRO measure for TS in diabetes.

Insulin detemir improves glycaemic control with less hypoglycaemia and no weight gain in patients with type 2 diabetes who were insulin naive or treated with NPH or insulin glargine: clinical practice experience from a German subgroup of the PREDICTIVE st
    Diabetes, obesity & metabolism, 2007, Volume: 9, Issue:3

    The Predictable Results and Experience in Diabetes through Intensification and Control to Target: An International Variability Evaluation (PREDICTIVE) Study is a large, multi-centre, observational study assessing the safety and efficacy of insulin detemir in everyday clinical practice.. This subgroup analysis of the German cohort of PREDICTIVE evaluates over 3 months, patients with type 2 diabetes who were transferred to insulin detemir +/- oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) from an OAD-only regimen (n = 1321), NPH insulin +/- OADs (n = 251) or insulin glargine +/- OADs (n = 260).. Among all groups, 3 months after starting treatment with insulin detemir, total, daytime and nocturnal hypoglycaemic events/patient were reduced by 84, 80 and 90%, respectively, from baseline. No major hypoglycaemic events were reported during treatment with insulin detemir. HbAlc was significantly reduced from baseline in each of the subgroups (-1.29,-0.60 and-0.59% for patients previously taking OADs only, NPH insulin +/- OADs and insulin glargine +/- OADs respectively; p < 0.0001), as was fasting blood glucose (FBG) (-58.1,-29.1 and-24.6 mg/dl; p < 0.0001) and FBG variability-8.2 mg/dl,-5.7 mg/dl; p < 0.0001 and -5.1 mg/dl; p = 0.0008). All subgroups combined lost an average of 0.9 kg of body weight (p < 0.0001) during the study. Total daily basal insulin dose increased slightly from baseline for those patients on a prior insulin regimen, and in this study 79% of patients used insulin detemir once daily.. These data confirm the short-term safety and efficacy of insulin detemir +/- OADs in a real-world scenario and support the findings of randomized controlled clinical trials with insulin detemir, including its limited effects on body weight.

Effect of insulin on weight loss and tumour growth in a cachexia model.
    British journal of cancer, 1989, Volume: 59, Issue:5

    A comparison has been made between the effects of daily insulin injection and a ketogenic diet on weight loss and tumour weight in an experimental model of cancer cachexia (MAC16). Weight loss associated with the MAC16 tumour was significantly reduced both by a ketogenic diet (80% MCT) and by daily insulin injections without an increase in either food or water consumption. Animals fed the 80% MCT diet had a significantly reduced tumour weight compared with controls fed a normal laboratory diet, while in animals administered 20 U insulin kg-1 day-1 the tumour weight was 50% greater than in saline infused controls. The stimulation of tumour growth by insulin was counteracted by the inclusion of 3-hydroxybutyrate in the drinking water without any alteration in the extent of weight loss. Depletion of both carcass fat and muscle dry weight in animals bearing the MAC16 tumour was reversed in animals administered either insulin or an 80% MCT diet. Animals bearing the MAC16 tumour had a reduced nitrogen balance compared with non-tumour-bearing controls, mainly due to excess urea excretion, and this was reversed towards control values in animals fed an 80% MCT diet, but not in animals administered insulin. These results suggest that a ketogenic diet is more effective than insulin administration in reversing the cachectic process and has the advantage of a concomitant reduction in tumour weight.
