The document discusses sitagliptin, a novel dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor for treating type 2 diabetes. It describes how DPP-4 inhibition increases levels of active incretin hormones GLP-1 and GIP, improving glycemic control. Clinical trials showed sitagliptin is a potent, selective, and reversible DPP-4 inhibitor. It provides >80% inhibition of DPP-4 with once-daily dosing, increasing active incretin levels and insulin secretion while decreasing glucagon. Sitagliptin treatment was well-tolerated and improved glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Sitagliptin is an oral antidiabetic drug that works by inhibiting the enzyme DPP-4, preventing the breakdown of the incretin hormones GLP-1 and GIP. This allows GLP-1 and GIP to increase insulin secretion and decrease glucagon secretion in a glucose-dependent manner, lowering blood glucose levels. Sitagliptin is used as monotherapy or in combination with other oral antidiabetics like metformin to improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. It has fewer side effects like hypoglycemia and weight gain compared to other antidiabetic drugs. Dosage adjustments are recommended for patients with renal impairment based on their creatinine clearance.
Recent studies have highlighted the growing global burden of type 2 diabetes, with over 600 million people projected to have the disease by 2045. In particular, Egypt will face explosive growth in cases. While control of blood sugar levels is important for reducing complications, most patients do not achieve treatment goals. Intensifying treatment in a timely manner when blood sugar is poorly controlled can reduce cardiovascular risks. Inertia on the part of both physicians and healthcare systems often limits timely treatment changes needed to improve outcomes for patients with type 2 diabetes.

Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors are a class of drugs for treating diabetes that work by blocking the DPP-4 enzyme, allowing glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) to remain active. GLP-1 stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin and less glucagon in response to food intake, lowering blood sugar levels. There are currently three DPP-4 inhibitors approved for use: sitagliptin, saxagliptin, and vildagliptin. DPP-4 inhibitors are effective at lowering blood sugar while having a low risk of hypoglycemia and not causing weight gain.

This document summarizes several new antiemetic treatments for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). It discusses studies on palonosetron, casopitant, olanzapine, midazolam, and gabapentin. Palonosetron was shown to be as effective as ondansetron for CINV from cisplatin and more effective than ondansetron/dolasetron for moderately emetogenic chemo. Casopitant and olanzapine show promise for controlling CINV when added to standard antiemetics. Midazolam helped reduce refractory acute CINV. Further research is still needed on the roles of these new antiemetics.

38 use of drugs in children with impaired renal functionDang Thanh Tuan
The document discusses several key issues regarding drug dosing in pediatric patients with impaired renal function:
1) Most drug studies are performed on adults and two-thirds of drugs are excreted by the kidneys, so dosing children with renal impairment requires careful consideration.
2) Factors like a child's absorption, distribution, and developmental physiology must be accounted for in dosing, as well as the drug's pharmacokinetic properties and metabolism.
3) Guidelines provide recommendations for adjusting drug dosages based on a child's renal function and monitoring drug levels, but balancing specificity and generalizability remains challenging.
This randomized, double-blind, Phase 3 clinical trial compared the efficacy and safety of tofacitinib (5mg or 10mg twice daily) to methotrexate (MTX) for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in patients who had not previously received MTX. The study found that tofacitinib was associated with greater improvements in signs/symptoms of RA and less progression of structural damage compared to MTX. Tofacitinib also increased some lab abnormalities like cholesterol and reduced white blood cell counts. The results demonstrated that tofacitinib is an effective alternative treatment for RA patients who have failed or are intolerant to MTX.

The document discusses various treatment options for managing vaginal dryness and sexual pain in cancer survivors. It includes both nonprescription options like lubricants and moisturizers as well as prescription therapies. Nonprescription options are used as needed for sexual activity or to maintain vaginal moisture. Prescription therapies include topical lidocaine, which provides temporary pain relief, and topical estrogen, which is the most effective but has safety concerns for some cancer survivors. Other options discussed include laser therapy, vaginal dilators, and cognitive behavioral therapy.
1) Fenugreek seeds contain antioxidants like flavonoids that may lower blood pressure. This study examined if fenugreek could help reduce blood pressure in those with prehypertension when used as an adjunct to the NCEP step 1 diet.
2) 51 subjects with prehypertension were randomized to receive either fenugreek seed powder or a placebo daily for 12 weeks in addition to the NCEP diet.
3) At the end of the study, systolic and diastolic blood pressures were significantly reduced from baseline in the fenugreek group but not the placebo group, suggesting fenugreek seeds may help lower blood pressure when used along with the NCEP diet.
This document presents a case study of a 21-year-old male patient admitted to the hospital with duodenal ulcer. Objective findings from examinations confirmed the diagnosis of duodenal ulcer seen on endoscopy. The patient's history of irregular eating habits and skipping meals contributed to ulcer development. A treatment plan was developed using pantoprazole, sucralfate, tramadol, ondansetron, and magnesium hydroxide to treat the ulcer and relieve symptoms while monitoring for drug toxicity and therapeutic response through follow-up endoscopy. Patient education focused on the disease, medication use, and importance of regular eating.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.
This document discusses hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), including its causes, symptoms, and consequences. It notes that hypoglycemia is a common side effect of insulin therapy that can lead to emergency hospitalizations. Episodes of hypoglycemia have been associated with increased levels of inflammatory markers and acute cardiovascular events. The symptoms of hypoglycemia involve abnormalities in heart rhythms and electrical activity. Over time, frequent hypoglycemia can cause patients to lose awareness of their symptoms, increasing risk. The body's natural defenses against falling blood sugar, such as hormone releases, are reduced during sleep, increasing risk of nighttime hypoglycemia. Many episodes go unnoticed by patients. The fear of hypoglycemia tends to increase with its
This document provides an overview of the clinical profile and long-term data of GLP-1 receptor agonists for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. It summarizes recommendations for anti-hyperglycemic therapy based on BMI levels and stages of treatment. It also outlines the mechanisms by which various antidiabetic agents act to reduce hyperglycemia. Finally, it compares the pharmacokinetic profiles of short-acting and long-acting GLP-1 receptor agonists, noting differences in half-life and time to maximum concentration.
Combining insulin and GLP-1 receptor agonists like Victoza provides complementary benefits for managing type 2 diabetes. Studies show adding Victoza to basal insulin regimens results in: improved glycemic control as shown by greater reductions in HbA1c levels of around 1%; weight loss or weight neutral effects compared to weight gain with insulin alone; and a low risk of hypoglycemia. The combination helps address insulin's limitations of weight gain and variability in glucose lowering by enhancing insulin's effects and reducing glucagon secretion from Victoza. Overall, combining these therapies provides effective glycemic control while minimizing side effects.
This document discusses the complications of diabetes mellitus. It begins by defining diabetes and describing the different types. It then explains the acute and chronic complications that can occur, including microvascular complications affecting the eyes, kidneys, and nerves, as well as macrovascular complications increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease. The document outlines the main mechanisms behind these complications, such as the accumulation of sorbitol and the glycation of proteins, which can cause tissue damage. Finally, it discusses the importance of glycemic control through diet, exercise and medication in managing diabetes and preventing associated health issues.
1) Exenatide once weekly (QW), also known as Bydureon, provides glycemic control through reductions in HbA1c of 1.3-1.9% over 24-30 weeks according to clinical trials.
2) Head-to-head trials show Exenatide QW results in similar or greater HbA1c reductions and more weight loss compared to other GLP-1 receptor agonists such as liraglutide.
3) Exenatide QW has been shown to maintain glycemic control over the long term with reductions in HbA1c of 1.5% maintained out to 6 years, along with significant and sustained weight loss from
This document summarizes information about the basal insulin Toujeo and compares it to Lantus. It discusses Toujeo's flat and prolonged activity profile, its ability to lower HbA1c levels similarly to Lantus while reducing hypoglycemic events and weight gain. Real-world evidence shows patients switching to Toujeo experienced an average 0.96% drop in HbA1c without changing their basal insulin dose. Toujeo provides flexibility in dosing time and has the potential to improve glycemic control while minimizing side effects for patients.

In the field of pharmacokinetics, the area under the curve
(AUC) is the area under the curve (mathematically known
as definite integral) in a plot of concentration of drug in
blood plasma against time. This is useful when trying to
determine whether two formulations of the same dose (for
example a capsule and a tablet) release the same dose of
drug to the body.
Cmax is a term used in pharmacokinetics refers to the
maximum (or peak) serum concentration that a drug
achieves in a specified compartment or test area of the
body after the drug has been administrated and prior to
the administration of a second dose.
Tmax is the term used in pharmacokinetics to describe the
time at which the Cmax is observed.

24. The primary goal:
To Achieve Glycemic Control
Improved Toleability Improved Pill Burden
Improved HbA1C
The proportion of patients that achieved the HbA1C<7 goal was largest in the group that received fixed dose combination therapy
The proportions of patients with an HbA1c <7% at week 104 were 60, 45, 45, 28 and 32% for the higher dose coadministration,
lower dose co-administration, higher dose metformin, lower dose metformin and sitagliptin groups,
respectively.
JANUET XR is a fixed-dose combination (FDC) product that contains sitagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, in combination with an extended release formulation of the biguanide metformin (metformin XR), which provides for convenient once-daily dosing.
Approval of JANUET XR is based on bioequivalence studies and clinical studies evaluating the efficacy and safety of combination therapy with sitagliptin and metformin as separate tablets.
Tablet Design:
JANUET XR tablets consist of an extended-release metformin core tablet coated with an immediate-release layer of sitagliptin and are formulated to gradually release metformin to the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract . The sitagliptin layer is coated with a soluble polymeric film.
The tablet absorb water from the stomach. This process results with a slow and controlled release of metformin into the GI tract, while the tablet stays in the stomach. A slow and controlled release results with absorption of most of the metformin into the bloodstream.
Comparisons for the Plasma Pharmacokinetic Parameters of Sitagliptin after Administration of a Single Januet XR 50 mg/500 mg
or administration of a Single Januet 50 mg/500 mg Tablet in Healthy Adult Subjects.
The AUC0-∞ and Cmax for sitagliptin after administration of a single Januet XR 50 mg/500 mg tablet and administration of a single Januet 50 mg/500 mg tablet are similar.
Comparisons for the Plasma Pharmacokinetic Parameters of Metformin after administration of a Single Januet XR 50 mg/500 mg
Tablet or Administration of a Januet 50 mg/500 mg Tablet in Healthy Adult Subjects.
The AUC0-∞ for metformin after administration of a single Januet XR 50 mg/500 mg tablet and administration
of a single Januet 50 mg/500 mg tablet are similar. After administration of a single Januet XR 50 mg/500 mg tablet, the mean Cmax value for metformin is 30% lower and the median Tmax value occurs 4 hours later compared
with corresponding values after administration of a single Januet 50 mg/500 mg tablet, which is consistent with the expected modified-release characteristics for metformin associated with the Januet XR formulation.
Significant (P <0.001) reductions in mean A1C concentrations were observed by week 12 in all treatment groups. A1C
levels continued to decline until week 20 and were maintained for the duration of the study (left). The mean changes in
A1C concentrations from baseline to end point in all extended-release metformin groups were noninferior to those in the
immediate-release metformin group.
The reduction in HbA 1c in the Metformin XR 2000 mg q.d. group was greater than for the other groups, indicating greater efficacy at higher doses, which may be related to the linearity of the dose proportionality data for Metformin XR.
Adherence is influenced by many factors. Here we will show how Januet XR can improve adherence in two forms:
Improved dosing regime
Improved tolerability
היעילות בהורדת A1C צפויה להיות זהה, אך מכיוון שההיענות לטיפול גבוהה יותר, זה עשוי להוביל לאיזון גליקמי טוב יותר, וליותר חולים שיגיעו למטרה.
היענות החולה לטיפול יורדת ככל שמספר הנטילות של התרופה עולה. במחקר שבוצע בחולי סוכרת בהולנד (כ-90 חולים) נצפתה היענות של כ-2/3 בלבד במטופלים תחת משטר נטילה של 3 פעמים ביום- כלומר כשליש מהכדורים לא נצרכו. בקרב מטופלים תחת משטר נטילה של פעם ביום ההיענות היתה כמעט מלאה.
Frequency of gastrointestinal adverse events reported in ≥ 1% of 205 patients taking immediate-release metformin (metformin-IR) before switching to metformin-XR. For this analysis, only those symptoms reported in the first year of therapy with immediate-release metformin were compared to the symptoms reported during the year following a switch to metformin-XR.
There was a statistically significant reduction in GI AE in patients switched to metformin XR.
