China: Dorzagliatin treatment leads to drug-free diabetes remission and stable glycemic control in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) who have not yet received any previous drug treatment, a recent study published in Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism has shown.

Recent findings from the phase 3 studies of dorzagliatin in patients with T2D who experienced inadequate glycaemic control with metformin alone (the DAWN trial) and in drug-naïve patients with type 2 diabetes (the SEED trial) have revealed that a novel allosteric glucokinase (GK) activator can be used as a new class of antidiabetic medicine.

Dorzagliatin acts on the intestinal L cells, pancreatic β-cells, and hepatocytes to reverse the impairment of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secretion and glucose-stimulated insulin, and glucose disposition in type 2 diabetes patients. Jiao'e Zeng, Jingzhou Hospital Affiliated to Yangtze University, Jingzhou, China, and colleagues investigate the post-treatment effect of dorzagliatin in drug-naïve patients with T2D concerning the achievement of stable glycaemic control and drug-free diabetes remission.

The researchers reported the 52-week outcome of the DREAM study and the results from the analysis of the characteristics of the participants who entered the DREAM study and achieved stable glycaemic control and diabetes remission.

The researchers enrolled patients who completed dorzagliatin treatment in the SEED trial and achieved stable glycaemic control in the 52-week study without any antidiabetic medication. Diabetes remission probability at week 52 was determined as the primary endpoint using the Kaplan–Meier method. They analyzed the potential factors that contribute to diabetes remission and stable glycaemic control based on the patient's characteristics before and after dorzagliatin treatment. A post hoc sensitivity analysis of diabetes remission probability was conducted using the American Diabetes Association (ADA) definition.

The study revealed the following findings:

  • At week 52, the Kaplan–Meier remission probability was 65.2%.
  • Based on the ADA definition, the remission probability was 52.0% at week 12.
  • The significant improvements in the insulin secretion index ΔC30/ΔG30 (41.46 ± 77.68), disposition index (1.22 ± 1.65), and steady-state variables of HOMA2-β (11.49 ± 14.58) and HOMA2-IR (−0.16 ± 0.36) during the SEED trial were important factors in achieving drug-free remission.
  • A significant improvement in time in range (TIR), a measure of glucose homeostasis, in the SEED trial from 60% to more than 80% (estimated treatment difference, 23.8%) was observed.

In conclusion, dorzagliatin treatment leads to stable glycaemic control and drug-free diabetes remission in drug-naïve patients with T2D. Improvements in β-cell function and TIR in these patients are important contributors to diabetes remission.
