AIMS/INTRODUCTION: To evaluate linagliptin prescribing in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with different comorbidities, an expanded Japanese post-marketing surveillance also collected baseline data for patients initiating other glucose-lowering drugs.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients initiating linagliptin monotherapy were enrolled, then the next patient starting monotherapy with another glucose-lowering drug was enrolled (2012-2014). Baseline data were collected and analyzed by the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities system organ class. Analyses were descriptive, and meaningful differences defined as absolute standardized difference >10%.
RESULTS: Over 4,200 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients were enrolled. Most system-organ class comorbidities were more common in patients initiating linagliptin versus other glucose-lowering drugs, with meaningful differences observed for metabolism/nutritional (50.5 vs 45.5%, respectively), cardiac (12.2 vs 8.6%, respectively), vascular (56.4 vs 51.3%, respectively) and renal/urinary disorders (9.9 vs 5.7%, respectively).
CONCLUSIONS: Expanding the linagliptin Japanese post-marketing surveillance revealed linagliptin prescribing to a type 2 diabetes mellitus population with more comorbidities versus other glucose-lowering drugs. Although such preferential prescribing might be expected, as linagliptin requires no dose adjustment or monitoring in renally or hepatically impaired patients, this innovative post-marketing surveillance approach generated important evidence that could only be shown in such a non-randomized comparative study. These data generated insights important for the design and interpretation of observational studies and spontaneous reports, which are key for public health.
