  2. Mission and Vision Our Vision To be a world class referral hospital in the provision of innovative and specialised healthcare Mission To provide accessible specialised quality healthcare, facilitate medical training, research and to participate in national health planning and policy

  3. Outline • Introduction • Classification of oral agents • Newer agents • New Type 2 DM care guidelines

  4. Introduction Type 2 DM • Chronic disease defined by hyperglycemia • Is a syndrome of insulin resistance, insulin deficiency and ,↑hepatic glucose output • It’s a ‘moving target’ • Medications designed to correct one or more disorders • Difficult to achieve Rx targets

  5. Classification of oral agents There are 7 agents available: • Sulphonylureas(SU) • Biguanides • Meglitinides • Thiazolidinediones(TZD) • Alpha-Glucosidase inhibitors • Dipeptidyl peptidase -4 inhibitors(DPP4) • Glucagon -like peptide-1 analogues(GLP-1), Gastric inhibitory polypeptide(GIP)

  6. SULPHONYLUREAS • In use since the 1950s • Very widely used to date • Insulin secretagogues • Progressive failure as DM advances

  7. SU Classes; • 1st generation: Tolbutamide & chlorpropamide Both have fallen out of favour due to an excess of hypo complication • 2nd Generation: Glibenclamide, Gliclazide, Glipizide and Glimepiride

  8. MEGLITINIDES • These are insulin secretagogues. Bind to SU receptors but at a different site • Repaglinide and Nateglinide • Need β-cell function • Faster onset and shorter duration of action • Reduce HbA1C by 0.5 - 2% • Can be used in renal failure

  9. THIAZOLIDINEDIONES • Act as insulin sensitizers at peripheral sites • Only Pioglitazone licensed for use • Act through intracellular enzyme systems • Very slow onset , optimal action takes 2-3 months, • Used in combination therapy with SU, metformin • Emerging reports of Ca bladder with pioglitazone

  10. Incretins • Gut hormones secreted in response to oral glucose • There are 2, GLP-1 and GIP • Regulate glucose disposal • They have common pancreatic effects • Deactivation by DPP4 enzymes • GLP1 is insulinotropic in T2DM • GIP is ineffective in T2DM which is detrimental

  11. GLP-1 agonists • Available since 2005, • Glucagon-like mimetic Exenatide • Given by subcut injection . • Potent long acting agonist of GLP-1 receptor • In combination with SUs/Metformin

  12. Exenatide • Good alternative to insulin • Risk of hypoglycemia • GI side effects are common • Long term safety unknown

  13. Dipeptidyl peptidase -4 inhibitors • Sitagliptin and Vildagliptin are examples • Increase insulin secretion and reduce glucagon levels • Used in combination with SU, Metformin or TZD • Only Sitagliptin is licensed for use with insulin • GI side effects

  14. New IDF Guidelines • ADA issued in April 2012 newT2DM guidelines • tailoring treatment to individual patient • Due to many agents there is confusion on optimal Rx • There is uncertainty over micro-, Macrovascular dx vs intensive Rx

  15. Recommendations • Reduce HbA1C to <7.0% • Target A1C 6-6.5% in ; - new onset diabetes, - longer life expectancy & no CVD • Target A1C 7.5-8% in - @ risk of hypoglycemia - shorter life expectancy

  16. Recommendation • New cases with A1C< 7.5% and motivated give 3-6/12 of intensive lifestyle Rx first
