• Discuss the rationale, benefits and literature behind combining glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) and basal insulin
• Identify the place in therapy for combination basal insulin and GLP-1RAs

Minimize weight gain
Minimize risk of hypoglycemia
Target treatment to both fasting and postprandial glucose
Eliminate the need for prandial insulin
Reduce insulin requirements
Rationale for Basal Insulin and GLP-1RAs

StudyDesign
• Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled• Primary outcome: change in A1c• Groups: exenatide 10 mcg SQ BID or placebo + insulin
glargine
Results • A1c decreased 1.74% with exenatide and 1.04% in the placebo + insulin group
• Between group difference: -0.69% [CI, -0.93% to -0.46%], p < 0.001
• Weight loss and less insulin required in exenatide group
Applicability • Improved glucose control with addition of GLP-1RA• High incidence of GI AEs with GLP-1RAs

Diamant, et al.
StudyDesign
• Randomized, open-label, noninferiority• Primary outcome: change in A1c• Groups: exenatide 5-10 mcg SQ BID or mealtime insulin
lispro + insulin glargine
Results • Demonstrated noninferiority• Between group difference in A1c was -0.04% [95% CI, -0.18% to 0.11%]• Improved treatment satisfaction in exenatide group,
p < 0.001
Applicability • Support exenatide as a noninsulin addition for patients• Short acting GLP-1RAs may be preferred over bolus
insulin

Rosenstock, et al.
StudyDesign
• Randomized, open label, noninferiority• Primary outcome: change in A1c• Groups: albiglutide 30 mg SQ weekly (titrated up to
50 mg) or mealtime insulin lispro + insulin glargineResults • Demonstrated noninferiority
• Between group difference in A1c was -0.16% [95% CI, -0.32% to 0.00%], p < 0.001• Hypoglycemia occurred twice as much in the insulin
lispro group
Applicability • Once weekly GLP-1RA use simpler and effective• Study limitations

Patient Considerations
Carris, et al. Drugs. 2014;74:2141-2152Trujillo JM and Nuffer W. Pharmacotherapy. 2014;34(11):1174-1186
Need for additional A1c lowering
Desire to avoid prandial insulin
Concern for AEs: weight gain, hypoglycemia
Cost considerations

Initiating GLP-1RA Therapy
Carris, et al. Drugs. 2014;74:2141-2152
Empiric reduction of basal insulin
Dose titration Adverse GI effects
Caution in elderly
Potential renal adjustments
Use of delivery devices

• Combination long acting insulin and GLP-1RA products• Insulin degludec and liraglutide recently
approved in Europe• Insulin glargine and lixisenatide
