Detailed Description
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is very commonly associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) 1. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) is a common biomarker used to predict levels of NAFLD. The only class of antidiabetic agents thought to be protective of NAFLD are thiazolidinedione's. Few studies have investigated the effect of other antidiabetic agents on bio markers of fatty liver disease 2. A recent pooled analysis of randomized controlled trials that compared canagliflozin to either placebo or sitagliptin showed significant reductions in ALT in the canagliflozin cohorts, which were fully explained by HbA1c and body weight reductions 3. As well, a study that compared ALT change in patients initiating liraglutide found significant reductions in ALT, which was strongly correlated to reduction in body weight 4. However, the effect of different antidiabetic agents on bio markers of fatty liver disease is not well characterized.
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the change in ALT in patients with T2DM initiating SGLT2 inhibitors, liraglutide, or sitagliptin, compared to a control group of patients who did not initiate a new antihyperglycemic therapy. The hypothesis is that patients using SGLT2i will achieve a greater reduction in ALT compared to the control group.
