DPP-4I and GLP-1 studies insights from Recent CVOT Trials
GLP-1 agonists have larger effects on glycemia control and anciliary CV surrogates such as blood pressure and weight loss and may drive CV benefit through these mechanisms Although efficacy has alluded DPP-4i trials, overall safety in a range of patient populations including CKD may allow their utilization with other agents Together both GLP-1 agonists and DPP-4 inhibitors have a definitive role in the management of patients at high risk for CVD GLP-1 trials demonstrate an important effect on MACE with one trial (LEADER) showing a mortality benefit DPP-4i trials demonstrate safety of these agents. EXAMINE the only trial in high risk ACS patients demonstrating overall safety
