To determine the effect of benfluorex on glycaemic control in obese insulin-requiring Type 2 diabetes, 76 patients (aged 53.8 +/- 12.8 years) receiving insulin (> or = 0.5 IU/kg) and an appropriate low-calorie diet were evaluated after a 1-month run-in followed by a 3-month double-blind treatment period (3 tablets daily) with benfluorex (B; n = 37) vs placebo (P; n = 39). At inclusion, the B and P groups respectively did not differ in body weight (80.9 +/- 10.3 vs 77.2 +/- 9.1 kg), body mass index (BMI) (30.1 +/- 4.6 vs 29.0 +/- 2.3 kg/m2) or fasting blood glucose (11.22 +/- 4.33 vs 10.35 +/- 4.42 mmol/l). However, daily insulin dose and HbA1c levels were higher in the B group (59.9 +/- 18.6 vs 50.4 +/- 12.8 IU, p = 0.012; and 7.72 +/- 1.60 vs 6.96 +/- 1.27%, p = 0.025, respectively). After 3 months of treatment, the decrease in daily insulin dose was greater in the B group (8.7 +/- 10.1 vs 2.7 +/- 8.1 IU; p = 0.032), with a decrease in HbA1c (-0.73 +/- 1.74%, p = 0.026), vs no change in the P group (+0.01 +/- 1.65%, NS) and a tendency towards a greater decrease in fasting blood glucose (-1.43 +/- 5.41 vs +0.42 +/- 3.78 mmol/l respectively). Body weight and BMI were also lower in the B group (1.77 ñ 2.27 vs 0.21 ñ 2.68 kg, p = 0.013; and 0.64 +/- 0.84 vs 0.07 +/- 1.07 kg/m2, p = 0.019, respectively) in parallel with the decrease in insulin dose. Triglycerides decreased in the B group vs an increase in the P group (-0.54 +/- 2.04 vs +0.21 +/- 0.70 mmol/l p = 0.06). Total cholesterol decreased within the B group (-0.47 +/- 1.01 mmol/l; p = 0.013) and vs the P group (intergroup p = 0.006). Adverse events were reported in 11 patients in the B group vs 5 in the P group (NS), causing dropout in only one case (intercurrent illness, P group). Addition of benfluorex in obese insulin-requiring Type 2 diabetes thus enhances glycaemic control and lowers both daily insulin requirement and body weight. Benfluorex + insulin is a valid alternative for obese patients who remain poorly controlled despite insulin or who require high doses of insulin.
为确定苯氟雷司对肥胖的需用胰岛素治疗的2型糖尿病患者血糖控制的影响,对76例患者(年龄53.8±12.8岁)进行了评估,这些患者接受胰岛素治疗(≥0.5IU/kg)并采用适当的低热量饮食,经过1个月的导入期后,进入为期3个月的双盲治疗期(每日3片),其中37例患者服用苯氟雷司(B组),39例患者服用安慰剂(P组)。纳入时,B组和P组在体重(80.9±10.3 vs 77.2±9.1kg)、体重指数(BMI)(30.1±4.6 vs 29.0±2.3kg/m²)或空腹血糖(11.22±4.33 vs 10.35±4.42mmol/L)方面无差异。然而,B组的每日胰岛素剂量和糖化血红蛋白(HbA1c)水平较高(分别为59.9±18.6 vs 50.4±12.8IU,p = 0.012;以及7.72±1.60 vs 6.96±1.27%,p = 0.025)。治疗3个月后,B组每日胰岛素剂量的减少幅度更大(8.7±10.1 vs 2.7±8.1IU;p = 0.032),HbA1c降低(-0.73±1.74%,p = 0.026),而P组无变化(+0.01±1.65%,无统计学意义),且空腹血糖有更大幅度降低的趋势(分别为-1.43±5.41 vs +0.42±3.78mmol/L)。与胰岛素剂量的减少相一致,B组的体重和BMI也较低(分别为1.77±2.27 vs 0.21±2.68kg,p = 0.013;以及0.64±0.84 vs 0.07±1.07kg/m²,p = 0.019)。B组甘油三酯降低,而P组升高(-0.54±2.04 vs +0.21±0.70mmol/L,p = 0.06)。B组总胆固醇降低(-0.47±1.01mmol/L;p = 0.013),且与P组相比也降低(组间p = 0.006)。B组有11例患者报告了不良事件,P组有5例(无统计学意义),仅1例导致退出研究(并发疾病,P组)。因此,在肥胖的需用胰岛素治疗的2型糖尿病患者中加用苯氟雷司可增强血糖控制,降低每日胰岛素需求量和体重。对于尽管使用胰岛素但控制不佳或需要高剂量胰岛素的肥胖患者,苯氟雷司+胰岛素是一种有效的替代方案。
