Efficacy and safety of cotadutide, a dual glucagon-like peptide-1 and glucagon receptor agonist, in a randomized phase 2a study of patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

To assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of cotadutide in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease.

Materials and methods

In this phase 2a study (NCT03550378), patients with body mass index 25-45 kg/m² , estimated glomerular filtration rate 30-59 ml/min/1.73 m² and type 2 diabetes [glycated haemoglobin 6.5-10.5% (48-91 mmol/mol)] controlled with insulin and/or oral therapy combination, were randomized 1:1 to once-daily subcutaneous cotadutide (50-300 μg) or placebo for 32 days. The primary endpoint was plasma glucose concentration assessed using a mixed-meal tolerance test.

Results

Participants receiving cotadutide (n = 21) had significant reductions in the mixed-meal tolerance test area under the glucose concentration-time curve (-26.71% vs. +3.68%, p < .001), more time in target glucose range on continuous glucose monitoring (+14.79% vs. -21.23%, p = .001) and significant reductions in absolute bodyweight (-3.41 kg vs. -0.13 kg, p < .001) versus placebo (n = 20). In patients with baseline micro- or macroalbuminuria (n = 18), urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratios decreased by 51% at day 32 with cotadutide versus placebo (p = .0504). No statistically significant difference was observed in mean change in estimated glomerular filtration rate between treatments. Mild/moderate adverse events occurred in 71.4% of participants receiving cotadutide and 35.0% receiving placebo.

Conclusions

We established the efficacy of cotadutide in this patient population, with significantly improved postprandial glucose control and reduced bodyweight versus placebo. Reductions in urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratios suggest potential benefits of cotadutide on kidney function, supporting further evaluation in larger, longer-term clinical trials.

Project description:Background and objectiveCotadutide is a balanced glucagon-like peptide-1 and glucagon receptor dual agonist under development for the treatment of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and type 2 diabetes with chronic kidney disease. We evaluated the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety and immunogenicity of a single dose of cotadutide in individuals with varying degrees of renal impairment.MethodsIn this phase I bridging study, individuals 18-85 years of age, with a body mass index of 17-40 kg/m2 and varying degrees of renal function {end-stage renal disease (ESRD; creatinine clearance [CrCl] < 20 mL/min); severe renal impairment (CrCl ≥ 20 to < 30 mL/min); lower moderate renal impairment (CrCl ≥ 30 to < 44 mL/min); upper moderate renal impairment (CrCl ≥ 45 to < 60 mL/min); normal renal function (CrCl ≥ 90 mL/min)} were treated with a single dose of subcutaneous cotadutide 100 µg under fasted conditions in the lower abdomen. The co-primary endpoints were area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to 48 h (AUC48) and the maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) for cotadutide. Safety and immunogenicity were secondary endpoints. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03235375).ResultsA total of 37 individuals were enrolled in the study (only three enrolled in the ESRD group, therefore this group was excluded from the primary PK analysis). AUC48 and Cmax values for cotadutide were similar across all renal function groups {severe renal impairment vs. normal renal function: AUC48 geometric mean ratio (GMR) 0.99 (90% confidence interval [CI] 0.76-1.29); lower moderate renal impairment versus normal renal function: AUC48 GMR 1.01 (90% CI 0.79-1.30); upper moderate renal impairment versus normal renal function: AUC48 GMR 1.09 (90% CI 0.82-1.43)}. A sensitivity analysis that combined the ESRD and severe renal impairment groups did not show notable changes in the AUC48 and Cmax GMRs. The incidences of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) ranged from 42.9 to 72.7% across all groups and were mostly mild to moderate in severity. Only one patient had a grade III or worse TEAE during the study period. No positive antidrug antibody results were observed.ConclusionsThese results suggest that the PK and tolerability of cotadutide are unaffected by renal function and that dose adjustments may not be required in individuals with renal impairment.

Project description:BackgroundEvidence supporting glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) remains scarce. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GLP-1RAs in this population.MethodsA comprehensive literature search was conducted in the MEDLINE, Embase and Cochrane databases from inception through May 2023. Clinical trials and observational studies that reported on the safety or efficacy outcomes of GLP-1RAs in adult KTRs were included. Kidney graft function, glycaemic and metabolic parameters, weight, cardiovascular outcomes and adverse events were evaluated. Outcome measures used for analysis included pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for dichotomous outcomes and standardized mean difference (SMD) or mean difference (MD) with 95% CI for continuous outcomes. The protocol was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (CRD 42023426190).ResultsNine cohort studies with a total of 338 KTRs were included. The median follow-up was 12 months (interquartile range 6-23). While treatment with GLP-1RAs did not yield a significant change in estimated glomerular filtration rate [SMD -0.07 ml/min/1.73 m2 (95% CI -0.64-0.50)] or creatinine [SMD -0.08 mg/dl (95% CI -0.44-0.28)], they were associated with a significant decrease in urine protein:creatinine ratio [SMD -0.47 (95% CI -0.77 to -0.18)] and haemoglobin A1c levels [MD -0.85% (95% CI -1.41 to -0.28)]. Total daily insulin dose, weight and body mass index also decreased significantly. Tacrolimus levels remained stable [MD -0.43 ng/ml (95% CI -0.99 to 0.13)]. Side effects were primarily nausea and vomiting (17.6%), diarrhoea (7.6%) and injection site pain (5.4%).ConclusionsGLP-1RAs are effective in reducing proteinuria, improving glycaemic control and supporting weight loss in KTRs, without altering tacrolimus levels. Gastrointestinal symptoms are the main side effects.
