AACE Diabetes Algorithm

• Guide therapy based on A1C level– Focus on lifestyle intensification at all levels

• Important tenets:

– Target A1C is ≤6.5%• For patients without concurrent serious illness and at low hypoglycemic risk

• Based on associated lower risk of micro- and macrovascular complications

• Recommend monitoring A1C quarterly, along with fasting and postprandial blood glucose, with intensification of therapy until goal A1C is achieved

• Individualize A1C target based on comorbidities

• Patient should monitor fasting and postprandial blood glucose levels

– Use agents with maximal efficacy, associated with lowest risk of hypoglycemia• Sulfonylureas are therefore much lower in algorithm

• Earlier use of incretin mimetics and DPP-4 inhibitors to stimulate insulin secretion without hypoglycemia

A1C = glycated hemoglobin; DPP-4 = dipeptidyl-peptidase 4

Risk of Hypoglycemia

• Plays a significant role in choice of agents in AACE algorithm

• For patients at highest risk of hypoglycemia, may consider close evaluation of agents chosen as well as therapeutic goal

• Patients with type 2 diabetes at highest risk of low blood glucose include those with:– Diabetes duration >15 years

– Advanced macrovascular disease

– Hypoglycemia unawareness

– Limited life expectancy

– Severe comorbidities

A1C = glycated hemoglobin; DPP-4 = dipeptidyl peptidase-4; GLP-1 = glucagon-like peptide-1; SGLT-2 = sodium glucose co-transporter-2; TZD = thiazolidinedione

Algorithm To Achieve Glycemic GoalsBaseline A1C 6.5% - 7.5%

• Monotherapy may be effective in this range

– Metformin first choice for monotherapy if no contraindications

– Consider DPP-4 if PP and FPG, GLP-1 if PP, TZD if metabolic syndrome or NAFLD, AGI if PP

– Do not recommend secretagogue (SU or glinide) in this range due to risk of hypoglycemia; short-lived effect

• If monotherapy is unsuccessful, move on to dual oral rx; often need to augment reduction in PP BG to get to goal in this A1C range

• Dual therapy with metformin provides superior glycemic control over metformin alone.

• If dual oral rx is unsuccessful, consider triple therapy

• If triple oral rx fails to achieve A1C goal, initiate insulin

If patient is asymptomatic with

recent onset of disease and drug naïve, may

consider starting with dual or triple oral

regimens

Once A1C has improved to <7.5%, consider initiation of dual oral therapy with tapering and possible discontinuation of insulin rx

If symptomatic, start insulin

A1C = glycated hemoglobin; FPG = fasting plasma glucose; IFG = impaired fasting glucose; IGT = impaired glucose tolerance; OGTT = oral glucose tolerance test.

The Ticking Clock

Increased risk for both microvascular and macrovasculardisease begins early in the prediabetic state

– Insulin resistance is already present in patients with NGT who later develop T2DM

– Patients with prediabetes already have insulin resistance and significantly decreased beta-cell function

– Diabetic retinopathy, peripheral neuropathy, and nephropathy occur in patients with prediabetes

– Patients with prediabetes have a 2- to 3-fold increase in CHD risk, similar to patients with diabetes

CHD = coronary heart disease; NGT = normal glucose tolerance; T2DM = type 2 diabetes mellitus

Prediabetes Treatment Algorithm

T2DM = type 2 diabetes mellitusBP = blood pressureCVD = cardiovascular diseaseTZD = thiazolidinedioneGLP-1 RA= glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist

• Weight-loss agents orlistat, lorcaserin, phentermine/topiramate and liraglutide can prevent progression to T2DM– Improve BP, triglycerides, and insulin sensitivity

• Metformin and acarbose can reduce progression to T2DM by 25% - 30% – Use for prediabetes is off-label

– Both are safe, confer CVD risk benefit; metformin is well tolerated

• TZDs prevented progression to T2DM in 60% -75% of patients in clinical trials– Associated with adverse outcomes

• GLP-1 receptor agonists may be as effective as TZDs– Promote weight loss, but inadequate safety data
