Background

A1chieve® was a noninterventional study evaluating the clinical safety and efficacy of biphasic insulin aspart 30, insulin detemir, and insulin aspart.

Methods

Korean type 2 diabetes patients who have not been treated with the study insulin or have started it within 4 weeks before enrollment were eligible for the study. The patient selection and the choice of regimen were at the discretion of the physician. The safety and efficacy information was collected from the subjects at baseline, week 12, and week 24. The number of serious adverse drug reactions (SADRs) was the primary endpoint. The changes of clinical diabetic markers at week 12 and/or at week 24 compared to baseline were the secondary endpoints.

Results

Out of 4,058 exposed patients, 3,003 completed the study. During the study period, three SADRs were reported in three patients (0.1%). No major hypoglycemic episodes were observed and the rate of minor hypoglycemic episodes marginally decreased during 24 weeks (from 2.77 to 2.42 events per patient-year). The overall quality of life score improved (from 66.7±15.9 to 72.5±13.5) while the mean body weight was slightly increased (0.6±3.0 kg). The 24-week reductions in glycated hemoglobin, fasting plasma glucose and postprandial plasma glucose were 1.6%±2.2%, 2.5±4.7 mmol/L, and 4.0±6.4 mmol/L, respectively.

Conclusion

The studied regimens showed improvements in glycemic control with low incidence of SADRs, including no incidence of major hypoglycemic episodes in Korean patients with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract PDF

Recently type 1 diabetes with acute onset and no evidence of islet autoantibodies have been showed as "fulminant type 1 diabetes" and as novel subtype of type 1B diabetes. The study was made progress in Japan. We report a typical case of fulminant type 1 diabetes. A 24 years old male to be in good condition visited our hospital because of flu-like symptom, diarrhea, and abdominal discomfort. He has no medical history and family history of diabetes. The level of plasma glucose is 962 mg/dL, serum ketone body 5.8 mmol/L, arterial blood pH 7.111 and he was diagnosed as diabetic ketoacidosis. Anti-GAD antibody and islet cell antibody were negative and HbA1c is 5.5%. All of them were compatible with the diagnostic criteria of fulminant type 1 diabetes. After the patient has been treated with insulin, his symptoms were improved and abnormal laboratory data were normalized. We report this case with a review of the literature.
