ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Pulse wave velocity (PWV) and augmentation index (AIx) are indices used to assess arterial stiffness. We aim to compare the effect of empagliflozin, liraglutide and their sequential combination on arterial stiffness indices in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).METHODS:
This was a randomized single blind study evaluating the effect of empagliflozin vs liraglutide in adult patients with T2D. Patients were randomized to liraglutide titrated gradually to 1.8 mg or empagliflozin 25 mg in 11 ratio. Three months later empagliflozin was added to the liraglutide group, and liraglutide was added to the empagliflozin group. Patients were assessed with non-invasive tests for arterial stiffness (i.e., carotid-femoral PWV and AIx of aortic pressure) at baseline, 3-month and 9-month visits (final visit was extended for 3 months from the initial design due to Covid 19 pandemic). The primary outcome was the between-group difference of PWV change (ΔPWV) and ΔAIx at 3 months. Secondary outcomes included the between-group difference of ΔPWV and ΔAIx at 9 months, as well as the ΔPWV and ΔAIx between baseline and 9-month visit when total study population was assessed.RESULTS:
A total of 62 patients with T2D (30 started liraglutide; 32 empagliflozin, mean age 63 years, 25 % with established cardiovascular disease) participated in the study. We failed to show any significant between-group differences of ΔPWV and ΔΑΙx at 3 and 9 months, as well as between-group difference of ΔPWV and ΔAIx for the total study population between baseline and 9-month visit. In contrast, systemic vascular resistance and lipoprotein(a) levels improved, showing better results with liraglutide than empagliflozin. Favorable effects were also observed on body weight, body mass index, body and visceral fat, blood pressure, HbA1c, and uric acid levels.CONCLUSION:
No evidence of a favorable change in arterial stiffness indices was seen with empagliflozin or liraglutide or their combination in this study. Well-designed powerful studies are needed to address any potential effects on arterial stiffness in selected populations.Palabras clave
