Tresiba® - insulin degludec Literature Review BEGIN Basal-bolus Type II • Purpose: compare insulin degludec to insulin glargine in efficacy and adverse effect profile • Design: Phase III, randomized, open- label, treat-to-target trial Garber A, et al. Lancet. 2012; 379:1498–507. Tresiba® - insulin degludec Literature Review • Primary endpoint: change from baseline in HbA1c concentration after 52 weeks • Secondary endpoints: change in fasting plasma glucose from baseline, percentage of patients reaching A1c goal of <7% • Safety assessment: hypoglycemia Garber A, et al. Lancet. 2012; 379:1498–507. Tresiba® - insulin degludec Literature Review • Included: Type II diabetics, age >18, diagnosed >6 months, HbA1c 7.0-10.0 with current insulin treatment for at least 3 months • Excluded: Use of GLP-1 or rosiglitazone in last 3 months, CV event within previous 6 months, uncontrolled HTN, pregnancy, impaired renal/hepatic function Garber A, et al. Lancet. 2012; 379:1498–507.

Tresiba® - insulin degludec Literature Review • Intervention: randomize patients (N=1006) at a 3:1 ratio of insulin degludec:insulin glargine once daily • Insulin doses were titrated until patient-reported fasting blood sugars on 3 days previous to appointment averaged 70mg/dL-90mg/dL. • Patients continued for 52 weeks Garber A, et al.

Tresiba® - insulin degludec Literature Review BEGIN Basal-bolus Type II • Conclusion: Insulin degludec is non- inferior to insulin glargine in HbA1c lowering • May have benefit of reduced rates of nocturnal hypoglycemia and hypoglycemia overall Garber A, et al. Lancet. 2012; 379:1498–507. Tresiba® - insulin degludec Summary • Tresiba, insulin degludec, is a new long-acting insulin similar in administration and dosing to Levemir and Lantus. Insulin degludec forms hexamers after injection. • Suggested monitoring with home glucose and A1c are similar to other diabetes agents • Hypoglycemia, injection site reactions, and weight gain are similar to other insulins • Does not have any true drug-drug interactions, caution use with agents which may further lower glucose, offset glucose lowering effect, or mask Sx hypoglycemia • Isulin degludec will be available in early 2016 in 3mL “Flextouch” pens Tresiba® - insulin degludec References 1.
