Summary of Research : Efficacy and Safety of the SGLT2 Inhibitor Empagliflozin Versus Placebo and the DPP-4 Inhibitor Linagliptin Versus Placebo in Young People with Type 2 Diabetes (DINAMO): A Multicentre, Randomised, Double-Blind, Parallel Group, Phase 3 Trial

The increasing occurrence of childhood overweight and obesity has been followed by a substantial increase in youth-onset type 2 diabetes (T2D). Pharmacological treatment options for youth-onset T2D remain limited, with a clear unmet need for additional oral agents. This summary of research reports on the efficacy and safety of empagliflozin and linagliptin on glycaemic control in children and adolescents aged 10-17 years with T2D in the randomised, double-blind, parallel group, phase 3 DINAMO trial. Empagliflozin provided a clinically relevant, statistically significant, and durable improvement in glycaemic control; however, linagliptin did not. The safety profile of both empagliflozin and linagliptin was comparable to those observed in studies in adults. These results suggest that empagliflozin could be a new oral therapy option for youth-onset T2D.
