    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated real-world clinical outcomes of patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) initiating or transferring to insulin glargine 300 U/mL (Gla-300) vs insulin glargine 100 U/mL (Gla-100). METHODS: This is a retrospective cohort study using data from the Canadian LMC Diabetes Patient Registry. The 4 following cohorts were analyzed: 1) insulin-naïve patients with T2D who initiated Gla-300 or Gla-100, 2) patients with T2D who switched from neutral protamine Hagedorn (NPH) or detemir to Gla-300 or Gla-100, 3) patients with T2D who switched from Gla-100 to Gla-300 and 4) patients with T1D who switched from Gla-100, NPH or detemir to Gla-300. RESULTS: Of 376 propensity score-matched insulin-naïve patients, 6-month reduction in glycated hemoglobin (A1C) was similar between Gla-300 (-1.78%±1.85%; p<0.001) and Gla-100 (-1.74%±1.87%; p<0.001). In 114 propensity score-matched patients who switched from NPH or detemir, 6-month reduction in A1C was similar between Gla-300 (-0.78%±1.14%) and Gla-100 (-0.70%±1.57%). The 396 patients who switched from Gla-100 to Gla-300 had a significant reduction in A1C (-0.45%±1.39%; p<0.001). In 196 patients with T1D who switched from Gla-100, NPH or detemir to Gla-300, there was a significant reduction in A1C of -0.17%±1.19% (p=0.04). CONCLUSIONS: In a real-world clinical setting, insulin-naïve patients who initiated Gla-300 or Gla-100 showed similar changes in A1C and weight. Patients with T1D or T2D using Gla-300 transferred from another basal insulin had significant reductions in A1C with no change in weight or insulin dose.
