Conditions

T2DM (Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus)

Brief summary

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the comprehensive clinical efficacy, cardiovascular, renal, and hepatic benefits, as well as the safety of adding Chiglitazar to SGLT-2 inhibitor therapy in adult patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) . The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the real-world effectiveness of Chiglitazar, when added to an SGLT-2 inhibitor, on glycemic control? What are the effects of this combination therapy on cardiovascular, renal, and hepatic outcomes? What is the overall safety of this treatment regimen? This is a non-interventional study. Participants will be prescribed Chiglitazar or other oral antidiabetic drugs by their treating physician as part of their routine clinical care. For the purpose of this registry study, data will be collected from their regular medical follow-ups. Participants will: Attend regular follow-up visits as part of their standard diabetes care. Have data collected from their routine clinical assessments.

Interventions

DRUGSGLT-2 inhibitor and Chiglitazar

Prescribed as an add-on therapy to an SGLT-2 inhibitor-based regimen according to the physician's clinical judgment and routine practice

DRUGSGLT-2 inhibitor and Other Oral Antidiabetic Drugs (OADs)

Any oral antidiabetic drug (other than Chiglitazar) prescribed by the treating physician as an add-on therapy to an SGLT-2 inhibitor-based regimen.
