摘要

Blood glucose-lowering agents that exert their therapeutic effect through the incretin hormone system are emerging as effective and well-tolerated therapies for type 2 diabetes. Due to their glucose-dependent mode of action these agents are associated with minimal hypoglycemic risk, and do not cause weight gain, thus avoiding limitations associated with many existing treatments that may threaten treatment adherence. Of the two classes of incretin therapies currently available, the GLP-1 receptor agonists have shown the ability to decrease HbA1c to a greater extent than DPP-4 inhibitors, and GLP-1 agonists may also reduce cardiovascular risk through modification of certain known risk factors, including via weight loss. This article explains the rationale behind using incretin-based therapies, summarizes key data from clinical trials of the GLP-1 agonists exenatide and liraglutide, and licensed DPP-4 inhibitors including sitagliptin and saxagliptin, and provides practical guidance on the use of these agents in clinical practice. Introduction Diabetes mellitus is currently a foremost public health concern, with the most recent data indicating that 23.6 million people in the United States (7.8% of the population) have a diagnosis of diabetes (1). Despite continuous advances in treatment, approximately 44% of patients in 2003–2004 were still failing to reach the hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) target of <7% currently recommended by the American Diabetes Association (2,3).Despite the wide range of treatment options available, a solution to the inevitable decline in beta cell function that underpins the progression of type 2 diabetes remains elusive, and treatment intensification, including the addition of insulin, becomes necessary in many patients (4). While insulin is essential in patients with insufficient beta cell reserve, its use is associated with increased risk of hypoglycemia and weight gain, both of which can reduce treatment adherence (5,6). Despite the fact that weight gain itself is a recognized risk factor for type 2 diabetes, emphasis on weight management is often trumped by the need to prioritize glycemic control. Importantly however, weight loss of just 5–10% can reduce HbA1c by 0.5% (7). Since weight loss can improve glycemic control, reduce cardiovascular risk and reduce the use of medications (8), it remains an essential goal of treatment. The ideal diabetes treatment would therefore provide effective, sustained glycemic control with negligible risk of hypoglycemia, while improving cardiovascular risk and avoiding weight gain. The crowning glory would be the ability to modify the disease trajectory by forestalling the decline in beta cell mass. With these concerns in mind, incretin-based therapies offer a practical strategy for glucose control, with many associated metabolic benefits, for patients with sufficient beta cell reserve. The physiology of the incretin systemInsulin secretion is greater following oral glucose intake than after an intravenous glucose bolus (the incretin effect) (Figure 1; 9,10), an effect mediated by incretin hormones that may be responsible for up to 70% of the insulin response to a meal (9).
