Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Conditions
Brief summary
GIOIA represents a multicenter pragmatic prospective cohort study, aimed at evaluating the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors currently marketed (dapagliflozin, canagliflozin, empagliflozin) on markers of vascular, myocardial and renal damage, in patients with type 2 diabetes not well controlled with metformin and/or basal insulin. The changes of the interest outcomes are compared with those obtained with a comparator glucose lowering class (DPP-4inhibitors) over a follow-up of two years.
Interventions
Dapagliflozin or canagliflozin or empagliflozin add on to metformin ± basal insulin
Sitagliptin or vildagliptin or saxagliptin or linagliptin or alogliptin add on to metformin ± basal insulin
