Introduction: Diabetes mellitus is a progressive disease with cardiovascular complications. We evaluated the impact of a glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist and sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors dapagliflozin and empagliflozin on renal and cardiac function in type 2 diabetes patients with renal impairment. Materials and methods: A total of 156 patients referred with suboptimal glycemic control were assigned to Group G (GLP-1): n = 72 or Group S (SGLT-2 inhibitor)—dapagliflozin ( n = 52) or empagliflozin ( n = 32). Renal function was assessed every 3 months for 36 months. Cardiovascular parameters were evaluated every 12 months for 36 months. Results: Compared with baseline, HbA1c and systolic blood pressure significantly decreased in both groups ( p < 0.05). The estimated glomerular filtration rate decreased, but without significance. Albuminuria decreased significantly in both groups and then subsequently increased after 30 months in Group S. Diastolic cardiac function, assessed by E/e′ or left atrial volume index, decreased only in Group G at 36 months. Conclusions: The GLP-1 receptor agonist and SGLT-2 inhibitors were effective for glycemic and blood pressure control and for maintaining renal function. The GLP-1 receptor agonist improved diastolic function at 36 months.

Liraglutide–-a once-daily human glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist for treatment of Type 2 diabetes–-provides effective glycemic control with a lower incidence of hypoglycemia than therapies such as glimepiride and exenatide, and reduces body weight and systolic blood pressure. This article briefly discusses efficacy and safety results from the Liraglutide Effect and Action in Diabetes (LEAD) program, before considering practical issues of identifying and educating patients who may be suitable for liraglutide therapy.
