    (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, 2018-01-05) Gerstein, Hertzel C.; Colhoun, Helen M.; Dagenais, Gilles R.; Diaz, Rafael; Lakshmanan, Mark; Pais, Prem; Probstfield, Jeffrey; Riddle, Matthew C.; Ryden, Lars; Xavier, Denis; Atisso, Charles M.; Avezum, Alvaro; Basile, Jan; Chung, Namsik; Conget, Ignacio; Cushman, William C.; Franek, Edward; Hancu, Nicolae; Hanefeld, Markolf; Holt, Shaun; Jansky, Petr; Keltai, Matyas; Lanas, Fernando; Leiter, Lawrence A.; Lopez-Jaramillo, Patricio; Cardona-Munoz, Ernesto G.; Pirags, Valdis; Pogosova, Nana; Raubenheimer, Peter J.; Shaw, Jonathan; Sheu, Wayne H-H.; Temelkova-Kurktschiev, Theodora; The REWIND Trial Investigators; Masira
    The aim was to determine the effects of dulaglutide, a synthetic once-weekly, injectable human glucagon-like peptide 1 analogue that lowers blood glucose, body weight, appetite and blood pressure, on cardiovascular outcomes. People with type 2 diabetes, aged ≥50 years, with glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) ≤9.5%, and either a previous cardiovascular event, evidence of cardiovascular disease or ≥2 cardiovascular risk factors were randomly allocated to a weekly subcutaneous injection of either dulaglutide (1.5 mg) or placebo and followed within the ongoing Researching cardiovascular Events with a Weekly INcretin in Diabetes (REWIND) trial every 3 to 6 months. The primary cardiovascular outcome is the first occurrence of the composite of cardiovascular death or non-fatal myocardial infarction or non-fatal stroke. Secondary outcomes include each component of the primary composite cardiovascular outcome, a composite clinical microvascular outcome comprising retinal or renal disease, hospitalization for unstable angina, heart failure requiring hospitalization or an urgent heart failure visit, and all-cause mortality. Follow-up will continue until the accrual of 1200 confirmed primary outcomes. Recruitment of 9901 participants (mean age 66 years, 46% women) occurred in 370 sites located in 24 countries over a period of 2 years. The mean duration of diabetes was 10 years, mean baseline HbA1c was 7.3%, and 31% had prior cardiovascular disease. The REWIND trial's international scope, high proportion of women, high proportion of people without prior cardiovascular disease and inclusion of participants whose mean baseline HbA1c was 7.3% suggests that its cardiovascular and safety findings will be directly relevant to the typical middle-aged patient seen in general practice throughout the world.

    Dulaglutide and cardiovascular outcomes in type 2 diabetes (REWIND): a double-blind, randomised placebo-controlled trial
    (ELSEVIER, 2019-07-13) Gerstein, Hertzel C.; Colhoun, Helen M.; Dagenais, Gilles R.; Diaz, Rafael; Lakshmanan, Mark; Pais, Prem; Probstfield, Jeffrey; Riesmeyer, Jeffrey S.; Riddle, Matthew C.; Rydén, Lars; Xavier, Denis; Messan Atisso, Charles; Dyal, Leanne; Hall, Stephanie; Rao-Melacini, Purnima; Wong, Gloria; Avezum, Alvaro; Basile, Jan; Chung, Namsik; Conget, Ignacio; Cushman, William C.; Franek, Edward; Hancu, Nicolae; Hanefeld, Markolf; Holt, Shaun; Jansky, Petr; Keltai, Matyas Matyas; Lanas, Fernando; Leiter, Lawrence A.; Lopez-Jaramillo, Patricio; Cardona-Munoz, Ernesto German; Pirags, Valdis; Pogosova, Nana; Raubenheimer, Peter J.; Shaw, Jonathan E.; Sheu, Wayne H-H.; Temelkova-Kurktschiev, Theodora; The REWIND Investigators; Everest
    Background Three different glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists reduce cardiovascular outcomes in people with type 2 diabetes at high cardiovascular risk with high glycated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) concentrations. We assessed the effect of the GLP-1 receptor agonist dulaglutide on major adverse cardiovascular events when added to the existing antihyperglycaemic regimens of individuals with type 2 diabetes with and without previous cardiovascular disease and a wide range of glycaemic control. Methods This multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was done at 371 sites in 24 countries. Men and women aged at least 50 years with type 2 diabetes who had either a previous cardiovascular event or cardiovascular risk factors were randomly assigned (1:1) to either weekly subcutaneous injection of dulaglutide (1·5 mg) or placebo. Randomisation was done by a computer-generated random code with stratification by site. All investigators and participants were masked to treatment assignment. Participants were followed up at least every 6 months for incident cardiovascular and other serious clinical outcomes. The primary outcome was the first occurrence of the composite endpoint of non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, or death from cardiovascular causes (including unknown causes), which was assessed in the intention-to-treat population. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01394952. Findings Between Aug 18, 2011, and Aug 14, 2013, 9901 participants (mean age 66·2 years [SD 6·5], median HbA1c 7·2% [IQR 6·6–8·1], 4589 [46·3%] women) were enrolled and randomly assigned to receive dulaglutide (n=4949) or placebo (n=4952). During a median follow-up of 5·4 years (IQR 5·1–5·9), the primary composite outcome occurred in 594 (12·0%) participants at an incidence rate of 2·4 per 100 person-years in the dulaglutide group and in 663 (13·4%) participants at an incidence rate of 2·7 per 100 person-years in the placebo group (hazard ratio [HR] 0·88, 95% CI 0·79–0·99; p=0·026). All-cause mortality did not differ between groups (536 [10·8%] in the dulaglutide group vs 592 [12·0%] in the placebo group; HR 0·90, 95% CI 0·80–1·01; p=0·067). 2347 (47·4%) participants assigned to dulaglutide reported a gastrointestinal adverse event during follow-up compared with 1687 (34·1%) participants assigned to placebo (p<0·0001). Interpretation Dulaglutide could be considered for the management of glycaemic control in middle-aged and older people with type 2 diabetes with either previous cardiovascular disease or cardiovascular risk factors.

    Dulaglutide and renal outcomes in type 2 diabetes. An exploratory analysis of the REWIND randomised, placebo-controlled trial
    (The Lancet, 2019-07-13) Gerstein, Hertzel C.; Colhoun, Helen M.; Dagenais, Gilles R.; Diaz, Rafael; Lakshmanan, Mark; Pais, Prem; Probstfield, Jeffrey; Riesmeyer, Jeffrey S.; Riddle, Matthew C.; Rydén, Lars; Xavier, Denis; Messan Atisso, Charles; Dyal, Leanne; Hall, Stephanie; Rao-Melacini, Purnima; Wong, Gloria; Avezum, Alvaro; Basile, Jan; Chung, Namsik; Conget, Ignacio; Cushman, William C.; Franek, Edward; Hancu, Nicolae; Hanefeld, Markolf; Holt, Shaun; Jansky, Petr; Keltai, Matyas; Lanas, Fernando; Leiter, Lawrence A.; Lopez-Jaramillo, Patricio; Cardona-Munoz, Ernesto German; Pirags, Valdis; Pogosova, Nana; Raubenheimer, Peter J.; Shaw, Jonathan E.; Sheu, Wayne H-H.; Temelkova-Kurktschiev, Theodora; The REWIND Investigators; Everest
    Background: Two glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists reduced renal outcomes in people with type 2 diabetes at risk for cardiovascular disease. We assessed the long-term effect of the GLP-1 receptor agonist dulaglutide on renal outcomes in an exploratory analysis of the REWIND trial of the effect of dulaglutide on cardiovascular disease. Methods: REWIND was a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial at 371 sites in 24 countries. Men and women aged at least 50 years with type 2 diabetes who had either a previous cardiovascular event or cardiovascular risk factors were randomly assigned (1:1) to either weekly subcutaneous injection of dulaglutide (1·5 mg) or placebo and followed up at least every 6 months for outcomes. Urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratios (UACRs) and estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFRs) were estimated from urine and serum values measured in local laboratories every 12 months. The primary outcome (first occurrence of the composite endpoint of non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, or death from cardiovascular causes), secondary outcomes (including a composite microvascular outcome), and safety outcomes of this trial have been reported elsewhere. In this exploratory analysis, we investigate the renal component of the composite microvascular outcome, defined as the first occurrence of new macroalbuminuria (UACR >33·9 mg/mmol), a sustained decline in eGFR of 30% or more from baseline, or chronic renal replacement therapy. Analyses were by intention to treat. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01394952. Findings: Between Aug 18, 2011, and Aug 14, 2013, 9901 participants were enrolled and randomly assigned to receive dulaglutide (n=4949) or placebo (n=4952). At baseline, 791 (7·9%) had macroalbuminuria and mean eGFR was 76·9 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (SD 22·7). During a median follow-up of 5·4 years (IQR 5·1-5·9) comprising 51 820 person-years, the renal outcome developed in 848 (17·1%) participants at an incidence rate of 3·5 per 100 person-years in the dulaglutide group and in 970 (19·6%) participants at an incidence rate of 4·1 per 100 person-years in the placebo group (hazard ratio [HR] 0·85, 95% CI 0·77-0·93; p=0·0004). The clearest effect was for new macroalbuminuria (HR 0·77, 95% CI 0·68-0·87; p<0·0001), with HRs of 0·89 (0·78-1·01; p=0·066) for sustained decline in eGFR of 30% or more and 0·75 (0·39-1·44; p=0·39) for chronic renal replacement therapy. Interpretation: Long-term use of dulaglutide was associated with reduced composite renal outcomes in people with type 2 diabetes.

    Effect of dulaglutide on cognitive impairment in type 2 diabetes: an exploratory analysis of the REWIND trial
    (Elsevier, 2020-07-01) Cukierman-Yaffe, Tali; Gerstein, Hertzel C.; Colhoun, Helen M.; Diaz, Rafael; García-Pérez, Luis-Emilio; Lakshmanan, Mark; Bethel, Angelyn; Xavier, Denis; Probstfield, Jeffrey; Riddle, Matthew C.; Rydén, Lars; Messan Atisso, Charles; Hall, Stephanie; Rao-Melacini, Purnima; Basile, Jan; Cushman, William C.; Franek, Edward; Keltai, Matyas; Lanas, Fernando; Leiter, Lawrence A.; Lopez-Jaramillo, Patricio; Pirags, Valdis; Pogosova, Nana; Raubenheimer, Peter J.; Shaw, Jonathan E.; Sheu, Wayne H-H.; Temelkova-Kurktschiev, Theodora; Everest
    Background Diabetes is an independent risk factor for cognitive impairment. We aimed to investigate the association between the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist dulaglutide and cognitive impairment as an exploratory analysis within the Researching Cardiovascular Events With a Weekly Incretin in Diabetes (REWIND) trial. Methods REWIND is a randomised, double-blind placebo-controlled trial at 371 sites in 24 countries. We included men and women (aged ≥50 years) with either established or newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes and additional cardiovascular risk factors, glycated haemoglobin of up to 9·5% (80 mmol/mol) on a maximum of two oral glucose-lowering drugs with or without basal insulin, and a body-mass index of at least 23 kg/m2. Participants were randomly assigned (1:1) subcutaneous injections once a week of either dulaglutide (1·5 mg) or an equal volume of matching placebo. Randomisation was done using a computer-generated code with stratification by site. Participants and all study personnel were masked to treatment allocation until the database was locked. Participants were followed up at least every 6 months for the composite primary outcome of stroke, myocardial infarction, or death from cardiovascular or unknown causes. Cognitive function was assessed at baseline and during follow-up using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and Digit Symbol Substitution Test (DSST). We present here the exploratory primary cognitive outcome, which was the first occurrence of a follow-up score on MoCA or DSST that was 1·5 SDs or more below the baseline mean score in the participant's country. All analyses were done using an intention-to-treat approach. The REWIND trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT01394952. Findings Between Aug 18, 2011, and Aug 14, 2013, 9901 participants were randomly assigned to either dulaglutide (n=4949) or placebo (n=4952). During median follow-up of 5·4 (IQR 5·1–5·9) years, 8828 participants provided a baseline and one or more follow-up MoCA or DSST scores, of whom 4456 were assigned dulaglutide and 4372 were assigned placebo. The cognitive outcome occurred in 4·05 per 100 patient-years in participants assigned dulaglutide and 4·35 per 100 patient-years in people assigned placebo (hazard ratio [HR] 0·93, 95% CI 0·85–1·02; p=0·11). After post-hoc adjustment for individual standardised baseline scores, the hazard of substantive cognitive impairment was reduced by 14% in those assigned dulaglutide (HR 0·86, 95% CI 0·79–0·95; p=0·0018). Interpretation Long-term treatment with dulaglutide might reduce cognitive impairment in people with type 2 diabetes. Further studies of this drug focused on brain health and cognitive function are clearly indicated.

    Erectile function in men with type 2 diabetes treated with dulaglutide: An exploratory analysis of the REWIND placebo-controlled randomised trial
    (The Lancet, 2021-08-01) Bajaj, Harpreet S.; Gerstein, Hertzel C.; Rao-Melacini, Purnima; Basile, Jan; Colhoun, Helen; Conget, Ignacio; Cushman, William C.; Dagenais, Gilles R.; Franek, Edward; Hanefeld, Markolf; Keltai, Matyas; Lakshmanan, Mark; Lanas, Fernando; Leiter, Lawrence A.; Lopez-Jaramillo, Patricio; Pirags, Valdis; Pogosova, Nana; Probstfield, Jeffrey; Raubenheimer, Peter; Ryden, Lars; Shaw, Jonathan E.; Sheu, Wayne H-H.; Xavier, Denis; Masira
    Background Diabetes is a major risk factor for erectile dysfunction, however, the effect of GLP-1 receptor agonists on erectile dysfunction is unknown. We aimed to assess the incidence, prevalence, and progression of erectile dysfunction in men treated with dulaglutide compared with placebo, and to determine whether dulaglutide's effect on erectile dysfunction was consistent with its effect on other diabetes-related outcomes. Methods The Researching Cardiovascular Events with a Weekly Incretin in Diabetes (REWIND) trial was a double-blind, placebo-controlled randomised trial of the effect of dulaglutide on cardiovascular outcomes. REWIND was done at 371 sites in 24 countries. Men and women aged older than 50 years with type 2 diabetes, who had either a previous cardiovascular event or cardiovascular risk factors, were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either dulaglutide or placebo. Participating men were offered the opportunity to complete the standardised International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) questionnaire at baseline, 2 years, 5 years, and study end. We did an exploratory analysis, in which we included participants who completed a baseline and at least 1 follow-up IIEF questionnaire. The primary outcome for these analyses was the first occurrence of moderate or severe erectile dysfunction following randomisation, assessed by the erectile function subscores on IIEF. This analysis was part of the REWIND trial, which is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT01394952. Findings Between Aug 18, 2011, and Aug 14, 2013, 3725 (70·1%) of 5312 male participants with a mean age of 65·5 years (SD 6·4 years) were analysed, of whom 1487 (39·9%) had a history of cardiovascular disease, and 2104 (56·5%) had moderate or severe erectile dysfunction at baseline. The incidence of erectile dysfunction following randomisation was 21·3 per 100 person-years in the dulaglutide group and 22·0 per 100 person-years in the placebo group (HR 0·92, 95% CI 0·85–0·99, p=0·021). Men in the dulaglutide group also had a lesser fall in erectile function subscore compared with the placebo group, with a least square mean difference of 0·61 (95% CI 0·18–1·05, p=0·006). Interpretation Long-term use of dulaglutide might reduce the incidence of moderate or severe erectile dysfunction in men with type 2 diabetes.
