Cardiovascular outcomes associated with prescription of SGLT-2 inhibitors versus DPP-4 inhibitors in patients with diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease.
Cardiovascular outcomes associated with prescription of SGLT-2 inhibitors versus DPP-4 inhibitors in patients with diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease.

AIMS: To determine the association with cardiovascular (CV) outcomes of sodium glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors compared with dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD).MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a population-based cohort study of new users of SGLT-2 inhibitors and DPP-4 inhibitors with T2DM and CKD using data from Optum Clinformatics DataMart. We assembled three cohorts: T2DM/no CKD, T2DM/CKD 1-2, and T2DM/ CKD 3a. Study outcomes were 1) time to first heart failure (HF) hospitalization; and 2) time to a composite CV endpoint comprised of non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI) or stroke. After inverse probability of treatment weighting, we used proportional hazards regression to estimate hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI).RESULTS: New users of SGLT-2 inhibitors versus of DPP-4 inhibitors had lower risks of HF hospitalization in the T2DM/no CKD (HR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.70, 0.82) and T2DM/CKD 1-2 (HR, 0.63; 95% CI, 0.48, 0.84), but no significant association was present in the T2DM/CKD 3a cohort. Compared with prescription of DPP-4 inhibitors, SGLT-2 inhibitors were associated with lower risks of non-fatal MI or stroke of 23% (HR, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.70, 0.85) in the T2DM/no CKD cohort, but no significant associations were present in the T2DM/CKD 1-2 and T2DM/CKD 3a cohorts.CONCLUSIONS: Incident prescription of SGLT-2 inhibitors was associated with lower risks of HF hospitalization but not with non-fatal MI or stroke despite suggesting benefit, relative to prescription of DPP-4 inhibitor across different stages of CKD.
