Effects of Metformin Versus Glipizide on Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients With
Type 2 Diabetes and Coronary Artery Disease. [2012]
OBJECTIVEThe two major classes of antidiabetic drugs, sulfonylureas and
metformin, may differentially affect macrovascular complications and mortality in
diabetic patients. We compared the long-term effects of glipizide and metformin
on the major cardiovascular events in type 2 diabetic patients who had a history
of coronary artery disease (CAD).RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODSThis study is a
multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial...
Dapagliflozin versus glipizide as add-on therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes who have inadequate glycemic control with metformin: a randomized, 52-week, double-blind, active-controlled noninferiority trial. [2011.09]
CONCLUSIONS: Despite similar 52-week glycemic efficacy, dapagliflozin reduced weight and produced less hypoglycemia than glipizide in type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled with metformin. Long-term studies are required to further evaluate genital and urinary tract infections with SGLT2 inhibitors.
Meal fat storage in subcutaneous adipose tissue: comparison of pioglitazone and glipizide treatment of type 2 diabetes. [2010.10]
Treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) with pioglitazone changes abdominal fat in the opposite direction as treatment with glipizide. To determine whether these two medications affect adipose tissue meal fatty acid storage differently we studied 19 T2DM treated with either pioglitazone (n = 8) or glipizide (n = 11) and 11 non-DM control subjects matched for age, BMI, abdominal and leg fat...
Lack of an effect of pioglitazone or glipizide on lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 in type 2 diabetes. [2007.03]
OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of pioglitazone, a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-y agonist with vascular beneficial effects, and glipizide, an insulin secretagogue, on novel inflammatory vascular risk markers in subjects with and without type 2 diabetes... CONCLUSION: Type 2 diabetes is associated with elevated concentrations of the novel vascular risk marker LpPLA2 and inflammatory risk markers e-selectin and VCAM-1. Neither pioglitazone nor glipizide significantly altered LpPLA2, VCAM-1, or highly sensitive C-reactive protein levels after 12 weeks of therapy. In study subjects with type 2 diabetes, e-selectin concentrations declined significantly with pioglitazone therapy, whereas ICAM-1 concentrations decreased significantly with glipizide therapy.
Efficacy and safety of the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, sitagliptin, compared with the sulfonylurea, glipizide, in patients with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on metformin alone: a randomized, double-blind, non-inferiority trial. [2007.03]
AIM: To compare the efficacy and safety of sitagliptin vs. glipizide in patients with type 2 diabetes and inadequate glycaemic control [haemoglobin A(1c) (HbA(1c)) > or = 6.5 and < or = 10%] on metformin monotherapy... CONCLUSIONS: In this study, the addition of sitagliptin compared with glipizide provided similar HbA(1c)-lowering efficacy over 52 weeks in patients on ongoing metformin therapy. Sitagliptin was generally well tolerated, with a lower risk of hypoglycaemia relative to glipizide and with weight loss compared with weight gain with glipizide.
Clinical Trials Related to Glucotrol (Glipizide)
Study to Understand the Genetics of the Acute Response to Metformin and Glipizide in Humans [Recruiting]
The SUGARMGH investigators are studying the influence of inherited gene variants on the
response to two commonly prescribed type 2 diabetes medications, metformin and glipizide.
They hypothesize that variants in genes that are associated with type 2 diabetes or related
traits may impact the effect of anti-diabetic medications. In addition, physiological
responses to an insulin secretagogue or an insulin sensitizer may shed light on the
mechanism of action of reported genetic associations.
A Study of MK-3102 in Participants With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus With Chronic Kidney Disease or Kidney Failure on Dialysis (MK-3102-019 AM2) [Recruiting]
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of MK-3102 in participants
with type 2 diabetes mellitus and moderate or severe chronic renal insufficiency or end
stage renal disease on dialysis with inadequate glycemic control.
Outpatient Discharge Therapy With Saxagliptin+MetforminXR vs GlipizideXL for Type 2 Diabetes With Severe Hyperglycemia [Recruiting]
Saxagliptin + Metformin XR (S+M) will be effective in stabilizing blood glucose (BG) levels
in patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes (T2DM) with severe hyperglycemia (BG levels
300 to 450 mg/dl) and glucose toxicity and with no criteria for inpatient admission or
occurrence of severe hypoglycemia compared to glipizide XL.
The study may provide preliminary evidence to support the role of S+M as a bridging,
stabilizing and safe therapy in patients with severe hyperglycemia
Sitagliptin vs Glipizide in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Chronic Renal Insufficiency [Recruiting]
The purpose of the study is to compare how sitagliptin and glipizide lower blood glucose
levels in patients with moderate and severe renal insufficiency.
Sitagliptin vs Glipizide in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and End-Stage Renal Disease [Recruiting]
The purpose of the study is to compare sitagliptin and glipizide in lowering blood sugar in
patients with end-stage renal disease on dialysis.
