Clinical Case

  • A 65 year old man with a history of hypertension,

and obesity is hospitalized with NSTEMI

  • Cardiac cath revealed 3 vessel disease, LVEF

40%.

  • During his stay, he was noted to have symptoms
  • f heart failure. He was placed on IV insulin for

persistently elevated glucoses

Other Clinical Data Weight 213 lb Height 70.5 inches BMI = 30.19 LDL=120 mg/dl TG=365 mg/dl HDL=25 mg/dl Laboratory Data Hemoglobin A1c = 8.9% BUN = 23 Creatinine = 1.8 Glucose = 115 eGFR = 40

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
