The bile acid sequestrant colesevelam has been shown to significantly reduce low-density lipoprotein particle concentration (LDL-P) in adults with primary hyperlipidemia or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
To assess the effect of initial combination therapy with metformin plus colesevelam on lipoprotein particles in patients with T2DM (secondary efficacy variables).
This 16-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study enrolled drug-naïve adults with T2DM, glycated hemoglobin 6.5%-10.0%, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) ≥100 mg/dL, and triglycerides <500 mg/dL. Patients were randomized 1:1 to either open-label metformin (titrated to 1700 mg/day) plus double-blind colesevelam 3.75 g/day or open-label metformin plus double-blind placebo.
In total, 286 patients were randomized (metformin plus colesevelam [n = 145]; metformin plus placebo [n = 141]). Compared with metformin plus placebo, the combination of metformin plus colesevelam significantly reduced LDL-C (mean treatment difference: -16.3%), total cholesterol (-6.1%), non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (-8.3%), and apolipoprotein (apo) B (-8.0%) and significantly increased triglycerides (median treatment difference: 18.6%) and apoA-I (mean treatment difference: 4.4%; all P < .001). Metformin plus colesevelam significantly reduced total LDL-P (mean treatment difference: absolute change -186 nmol/L [percent change -11.7%]; both P < .0001), largely attributable to a reduction in small LDL-P, and increased total very-low-density lipoprotein particle concentration (mean treatment difference: absolute change 6 nmol/L; P = .03 [percent change 8.3%; P = .06]) and total high-density lipoprotein particle concentration (1.0 μmol/L; P = .03 [4.5%; P = .01]) versus metformin plus placebo.
Initial combination therapy with metformin plus colesevelam improved the atherogenic lipoprotein profile of patients with early T2DM by significantly reducing LDL-P. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT00570739.
胆酸螯合剂考来维仑已被证明可显著降低原发性高脂血症或 2 型糖尿病(T2DM)成人的低密度脂蛋白颗粒浓度(LDL-P)。
评估二甲双胍联合考来维仑初始联合治疗对 T2DM 患者脂蛋白颗粒的影响(次要疗效变量)。
这是一项为期 16 周、随机、双盲、安慰剂对照的研究,纳入了未经药物治疗的 T2DM 成年患者,糖化血红蛋白 6.5%-10.0%,低密度脂蛋白胆固醇(LDL-C)≥100mg/dL,且三酰甘油<500mg/dL。患者按 1:1 随机分为二甲双胍(滴定至 1700mg/天)联合考来维仑 3.75g/天的开放标签组或二甲双胍联合安慰剂的双盲组。
共 286 名患者被随机分组(二甲双胍联合考来维仑组[n=145];二甲双胍联合安慰剂组[n=141])。与二甲双胍联合安慰剂相比,二甲双胍联合考来维仑治疗可显著降低 LDL-C(平均治疗差异:-16.3%)、总胆固醇(-6.1%)、非高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(-8.3%)和载脂蛋白 B(-8.0%),并显著增加三酰甘油(中位数治疗差异:18.6%)和载脂蛋白 A-I(平均治疗差异:4.4%;均 P<.001)。二甲双胍联合考来维仑可显著降低总 LDL-P(平均治疗差异:绝对值变化-186nmol/L[百分比变化-11.7%];均 P<.0001),主要归因于小 LDL-P 的减少,同时增加了总极低密度脂蛋白颗粒浓度(平均治疗差异:绝对值变化 6nmol/L;P=.03[百分比变化 8.3%;P=.06])和总高密度脂蛋白颗粒浓度(1.0μmol/L;P=.03[4.5%;P=.01]),与二甲双胍联合安慰剂相比。
二甲双胍联合考来维仑的初始联合治疗通过显著降低 LDL-P,改善了早期 T2DM 患者的致动脉粥样硬化脂蛋白谱。临床试验.gov 标识符:NCT00570739。
