Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

GIOIA represents a multicenter pragmatic prospective cohort study, aimed at evaluating the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors currently marketed (dapagliflozin, canagliflozin, empagliflozin) on markers of vascular, myocardial and renal damage, in patients with type 2 diabetes not well controlled with metformin and/or basal insulin. The changes of the interest outcomes are compared with those obtained with a comparator glucose lowering class (DPP-4inhibitors) over a follow-up of two years.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
SGLT-2i

Type 2 diabetic patients treated with metformin and/or insulin starting therapy with a SGLT-2 inhibitor: dapagliflozin 10 mg, oral, once daily or canagliflozin 100 mg, oral, daily or empagliflozin 10 mg, oral, daily

Drug: SGLT-2i
Dapagliflozin or canagliflozin or empagliflozin add on to metformin ± basal insulin

DPP-4i

Type 2 diabetic patients treated with metformin and/or insulin starting therapy with a DPP-4 inhibitor: sitagliptin 100 mg, oral once daily or vildagliptin 50 mg, oral, twice daily or saxaglitpin 5 mg, oral, once daily or linagliptin 5 mg, oral, once daily or alogliptin 25 mg, oral, once daily

Drug: DPP-4i
Sitagliptin or vildagliptin or saxagliptin or linagliptin or alogliptin add on to metformin ± basal insulin

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) [24 months]

    Progression (increase in mean CIMT in millimeters [mm]) or regression (reduction > o = 0.020 mm on mean CIMT) after 2 years of follow-up

  2. Myocardial stiffness indexes [24 months]

    Change from baseline in: Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) in percentage (%), Diastolic Left Ventricular Dimension (LVDs) in centimeters (cm) Interventricular Septum thickness (IVS) in cm left vetricular posterior wall thickness (PWs) in cm

  3. Urinary albumin to creatinine ratio excretion [24 months]

    Development of microalbuminuria in normoalbuminuric patients at baseline or development of macroalbuminuria in patients with microalbuminuria at baseline; regression of microalbuminuria to normoalbuminuria or regression of macroalbuminuria to microalbuminuria

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Weight [24 months]

    Change in body weight in kilograms (kg) from baseline

  2. Body mass index (BMI) [24 months]

    Change in body mass index in Kg/mq from baseline

  3. Waist circumference (WC) [24 months]

    Change in waist circumference in cm from baseline

  4. Blood pressure [24 months]

    Change in systolic and dyastolic blood pressure in mmHg from baseline

  5. estimated Glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) [24 months]

    Change in estimated glomerular filtration rate in mI/min/1.73 mq from baseline

Other Outcome Measures

  1. HbA1c [24 months]

    Change in HbA1c in % from baseline

  2. Mean amplitude glucose excursions (MAGE) [24 months]

    Change in MAGE in mmol/L from baseline

  3. Lipid profile [24 months]

    Change in total cholesterol, tryglicerides, HDL-cholesterol, and LDL-cholesterol in mg/dL from baseline
