Aims: Effects of DPP-4 inhibitor or SGLT2 inhibitor on human β-cell function are not well understood, and there is no report showing the difference between the two agents. The aim of this study is to compare the effects of these drugs on β-cell function in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Methods: The study protocol was approved by the IRB of Kawasaki Medical School (No. jRCTs061190008). A total of 103 patients met the inclusion criteria (age; 20 to 79 years, HbA1c; ≥7.0% and &lt;9.0%). Subjects were randomly assigned to luseogliflozin (L) group (n=49) or teneligliptin (T) group (n=54) and received 24 wks of intervention followed by 1-2 wks of drug washout. The primary endpoint was the change in log-transformed (Ln) disposition index (DI) 0-120 from baseline. Subjects underwent 75gOGTT before and after treatment.

Results: The main baseline backgrounds of L and T groups were as follows; age: 60.8±11.1 vs. 62.6±11.2 years (p=0.4), diabetes duration: 10.1±7.9 vs. 9.2±7.6 years (p=0.6), BMI: 27.0±4.2 vs. 27.2±5.4 kg/m2 (p=0.8), HbA1c: 7.6±0.4 vs. 7.5±0.5 % (p=0.5), DI 0-120: 0.80±0.60 vs. 0.92±0.59 (p=0.1). HbA1c levels were significantly decreased in both groups, but the amount of change was greater in the T group (-0.2%, p=0.02). Body weight was significantly decreased only in the L group, with a group difference of -2.5 kg (p&lt;0.001). Ln DI 0-120 were improved in both groups: -0.46±0.66 to -0.15±0.59 (p=0.01) in L group and -0.26±0.60 to -0.02±0.60 (p=0.003) in T group. The change in Ln serum proinsulin/CPR ratio, a marker of β-cell dysfunction, was reduced in L group (1.63±0.63 to 1.56±0.68, p=0.16), but rather increased in T group (1.70±0.75 to 1.90±0.51, p=0.01), with significant difference between the 2 groups (-0.27; p=0.004).

Conclusion: Improvement effects on DI 0-120 were almost identical between luseogliflozin and teneligliptin. On the other hand, burden on β-cells was mitigated only in luseogliflozin group.
