"Glycaemic Efficacy of TZDs"

Prof. Don Chisholm (biography)
English - 2007-11-10 - 22 minutes
(23 slides)

Summary :
The pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes involves both insulin resistance and β-cell dysfunction.

As the United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study showed, in all arms of the study there was a progressive loss of glycaemic control, and a separate analysis showed there was a progressive failure of β-cell function after the first year.

HOMA estimates of ß-cell function and insulin resistance showed significant mean increases in ß-cell function and reductions in insulin resistance among rosiglitazone-treated patients, in a study published by Lebovitz et al. in 2001 (1). Two subsequent major studies, the DREAM (2) and ADOPT (3) studies, looked at the prevention of progression to type 2 diabetes with rosiglitazone in prediabetic subjects, and a comparison of the glycaemic efficacy and durability of rosiglitazone compared to sulfonylurea or metformin.

Prof. Chisholm summarises from the glycaemic point of view the results of these large randomised trials.

Learning objectives :
After viewing this presentation the participant will be able to discuss:

- Data on HOMA estimates of ß-cell function and insulin resistance in rosiglitazone-treated patients with type 2 diabetes (Lebovitz et al. JCEM 2001)
- Reduction in the incidence of type 2 diabetes with rosiglitazone in prediabetic subjects (DREAM trial)
- Glycaemic efficacy and durability data for rosiglitazone compared to sulfonylurea or metformin (ADOPT trial)
