Glucagon-like Peptide (GLP) Utilization and Safety
Glucagon-like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) Agonists: Treatment Utilization Patterns and Risk of Acute Pancreatitis
This study will assess the utilization patterns (adherence, source of the index antidiabetic agent (ADA) and treatment modification) of the marketed glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists (exenatide and liraglutide), dipeptidyl-peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors (sitagliptin, saxagliptin, and linagliptin) and other ADAs and the incidence rate of acute pancreatitis among the users of these GLP-1 receptor agonists and users of DPP-4 inhibitors, separately, in comparison to other ADAs.
The proposed study will help in understanding the treatment utilization patterns and the incidence rate of acute pancreatitis among users of the marketed GLP-1 receptor agonists. This study differs from previous observational studies by including both exenatide and liraglutide and follow-up time is expected to be longer in the current study (2005 - 2011).
This study will be a retrospective cohort study conducted in the Truven (Thomson Reuters) commercial health insurance database from 2005-2011.

説明
Inclusion Criteria:
- Subjects aged ≥ 18 and ≤ 64 years as of index date and those who have continuous enrolment for at least 12 months in Truven
- Subjects should have complete medical and pharmacy benefits and continuous enrolment in the health plan for at least 12 months before the index date (pre-index period).
- Subjects should also have at least 1 claim of T2D diagnosis identified using ICD-9 codes 250.x0 or 250.x2 (excluding 250.x1 and/or 250.x3 - Type 1 diabetes and 648.0x - gestational diabetes)
Exclusion Criteria:
- For the objective of evaluating the association between GLP-1 receptor agonists, DPP-4 inhibitors and acute pancreatitis as compared to the association observed between this outcome and the use of other ADAs, subjects having evidence of pancreatic disease (ICD 9 code of 577.xx) in the pre-index period (12 months before the index date) will be excluded.

Type 2 diabetes patients taking antidiabetic agents
Subjects should also have at least 1 claim of T2D diagnosis identified using ICD-9 codes 250.x0 or 250.x2 (excluding 250.x1 and/or 250.x3 - Type 1 diabetes and 648.0x - gestational diabetes).

The GLP-1 receptor agonist users are classified based on the receipt of a GLP-1 receptor agonist at the index date.
GLP-1 receptor agonists included in this study are exenatide and liraglutide
DPP-4 inhibitor users are classified based on the receipt of a DPP-4 inhibitor prescription at the index date.
The DPP-4 inhibitors included in this study are sitagliptin, saxagliptin, linagliptin, combination of sitagliptin and metformin (Janumet), and combination of sitagliptin and simvastatin (Juvisync)
Classes of ADA's other than GLP-1 receptor agonists and DPP-4 inhibitors will be included in the 'other ADA' exposure group

For treatment utilization patterns: adherence will be assessed.
時間枠:6 years

For acute pancreatitis: the study outcome will be the first incidence of acute pancreatitis identified by the ICD-9 code of 577.0 listed as a primary discharge diagnosis on a hospitalization claim.
Adherence to GLP-1 receptor agonists, DPP-4 inhibitors and other ADAs will be measured by Medication Possession Ratio (MPR).
MPR will be calculated at the class-level for each of the classes of ADA until one of the censoring events.
