Benefits of technology

The invention is about a new treatment for diabetes that works by inhibiting the kidneys from reabsorbing glucose. The patent describes how to make the medicine and how to use it to treat diabetes. The medicine can be made using existing methods and can be formulated as a salt or solvate. The invention also covers the use of the SGLT-2 inhibitor alone or in combination with other medicines to treat diabetes.

Problems solved by technology

The rising prevalences of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) represent major challenges for global public health.
In addition, the presence of type 2 diabetes mellitus is associated with a two to five fold increase in cardiovascular disease risk.
In addition, even in patients within the intensive treatment arm glycemic control deteriorated significantly over time and this was attributed to deterioration of β-cell function.
Therefore many patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus remain inadequately treated, partly because of limitations in long term efficacy, tolerability and dosing inconvenience of existing antihyperglycemic therapies.
The high incidence of therapeutic failure is a major contributor to the high rate of long-term hyperglycemia-associated complications or chronic damages (including micro- and macrovascular complications such as e.g. diabetic nephrophathy, retinopathy or neuropathy, or cardiovascular complications) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Effects of SGLT2 Inhibition on Oxidative Stress, Vessel Wall Thickness and Collagen Content, and Endothelial Dysfunction in STZ-Induced Diabetes Mellitus (Type I) in Rat

[0463]Type I diabetes in Wistar rats (8 weeks old, 250-300 g) are induced by a single i.v. injection of STZ (60 mg / kg). The blood glucose level is measured 3 days after STZ injection (to test whether diabetes was induced) and on the day of sacrifice. One week after injection empagliflozin (SGLT2-i) was administered with drinking water for additional 7 weeks (10 and 30 mg / kg / d p.o.). Treatment with empagliflozin showed a distinct reduction of blood glucose levels in diabetic rats without influence on loss of weight gain. Isometric tension recordings showed an empagliflozin-dependent normalization of endothelial function in diabetic animals and reduced oxidative stress in aortic vessels and blood, examined by DHE staining of aortic cryosections and PDBu / zymosanA-stimulated chemiluminescence, respectively. Additionally,...

Measurement of Hourly Blood Pressure

[0474]Empagliflozin (10 mg and 25 mg) was administered orally once daily over 12 weeks in hypertensive patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The change from baseline in hourly mean systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) was measured over a 24-hour period afer 12 weeks of treatment compared to the placebo group and is shown in FIGS. 14 and 15.

Treatment of Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus with Elevated Cardiovascular Risk

[0475]The longterm impact on cardiovascular morbidity and mortality and relevant efficacy parameters (e.g. HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose, treatment sustainability) of treatment with empagliflozin in a relevant population of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is investigated as follows:

[0476]Type 2 diabetes patient with elevated risk of cardiovascular events, e.g. as defined below, are treated over a lengthy period (e.g. for between approximately 6 and 8 years) with empagliflozin (optionally in combination with one or more other active substances, e.g. such as those described herein) and compared with patients who have been treated with a placebo on standard of care background medication.

[0477]Empagliflozin is administered orally once daily (10 mg / daily or 25 mg / daily). Patients are diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus, are on diet and exercise regimen and are drug-naïve or pre-treated with an...
