421-P: Efficacy and Safety of Sodium–Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

2020 
Background: Several large randomized trials suggest SGLT2Is may reduce mortality in addition to lowering A1c in patients with T2D. Treatment algorithms from the ADA and EASD now recommend a SGLT2I be initiated in patients with T2D who have chronic kidney disease or heart failure, regardless of A1c level. To better quantify the efficacy and safety of SGLT2Is, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of all randomized trials of this drug class. Methods: We searched PubMed and Scopus (inception to June 2019) for randomized trials of at least 52 weeks duration enrolling adults with T2D that compared SGLT2Is with placebo. Outcomes included microvascular/macrovascular complications, mortality, change in cardiovascular (CV) risk factors, and adverse events. Continuous outcomes were calculated with standardized mean differences, and binary outcomes were calculated using odds ratios. Pooled analyses were performed with fixed and random effects models. Heterogeneity was assessed with the I2 statistic. Results: See Table for results. Conclusions: Patients who received SGLT2Is when compared to placebo had significantly lower rates of heart failure and A1c. These findings support the current ADA/EASD treatment recommendations. Subsequent cost effectiveness analyses will help further inform healthcare policy decisions. Disclosure J. Alexander: None. E.M. Staab: None. W. Wan: None. M. Franco: None. A.C. Knitter: None. C.C.
