Remogliflozin etabonate: a novel SGLT2 inhibitor for treatment of diabetes mellitus.
Inhibitors of sodium-glucose co-transporter type 2 (SGLT2) represent a new class of anti-hyperglycemic agents with a unique mechanism of action. These drugs lower blood glucose by increasing urinary glucose excretion. Remogliflozin etabonate (RE) is a prodrug of remogliflozin, an SGLT2 inhibitor under development.. The following article reviews all of the clinical studies published regarding metabolism, drug interaction, safety and efficacy of RE in healthy subjects, patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.. Available data suggest low potential for RE to interact with other drugs affecting the P450 system. Compared with placebo, RE reduces hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels by an average of 0.5 - 1.0% after 12 weeks of therapy in drug-naive patients with type 2 diabetes. Because of its relatively short half-life, RE may be slightly more effective when used twice daily than once daily. One preliminary study also showed that RE decreased plasma glucose levels in type 1 diabetes. Advantages of RE include modest weight loss of ∼ 2 kg, low risk of hypoglycemia, and a trend toward decrease in blood pressure. The commonest adverse effects of RE are genital mycotic infections, urinary tract infections, and dizziness. However, further studies are needed to establish its long-term safety and efficacy, and to determine whether it has specific advantages over currently approved SGLT2 inhibitors.

Remogliflozin etabonate, a selective inhibitor of the sodium-glucose transporter 2, improves serum glucose profiles in type 1 diabetes.
Remogliflozin etabonate (RE), an inhibitor of the sodium-glucose transporter 2, improves glucose profiles in type 2 diabetes. This study assessed safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of RE in subjects with type 1 diabetes.. Ten subjects managed with continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion were enrolled. In addition to basal insulin, subjects received five randomized treatments: placebo, prandial insulin, 50 mg RE, 150 mg RE, and mg RE 500.. Adverse events and incidence of hypoglycemia with RE did not differ from placebo and prandial insulin groups. RE significantly increased urine glucose excretion and reduced the rise in plasma glucose concentration after oral glucose. RE reduced incremental adjusted weighted mean glucose (0-4 h) values by 42-49 mg/dL and mean glucose (0-10 h) by 52-69 mg/dL.. RE can be safely administered with insulin in type 1 diabetes and reduces plasma glucose concentrations compared with placebo.
