Recent prospective randomized studies have shown that sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors had renal protective effects compared to placebo. In this study, we compared the renal composite outcomes between patients with diabetes treated with SGLT2 inhibitors and those treated with dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitors using real-world clinical data. This retrospective observational study used the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership Common Data Model (OMOP-CDM) database at four different university hospitals (Soonchunhyang university hospitals in Seoul, Bucheon, Chunan, and Gumi) in Korea. Subjects prescribed SGLT2 inhibitors or DPP4 inhibitors for at least 90 days were included in the SGLT2 inhibitor or DPP4 inhibitor group, respectively. Subjects prescribed GLP-1 receptor agonist or insulin were excluded in both groups. Renal composite outcomes included a 30% decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) compared to baseline or creatinine doubling or dialysis or death from any cause. After propensity score matching, clinical characteristics in each group at each hospital were well balanced at baseline. Our results from hospitals in Seoul, Bucheon, and Gumi have shown that SGLT2 inhibitor decreased renal composite outcomes compared to DPP4 inhibitor (hazard ratio (HR) 0.644, p=0.020; HR 0.560, p<0.001; HR 0.657, p=0.010, respectively). Furthermore, when all the data were combined, renal composite outcomes were significantly lower in the SGLT2 inhibitor group compared to the DPP4 inhibitor group (HR 0.659, p<0.001). In conclusion, SGLT2 inhibitors effectively reduce renal composite outcomes compared to DPP4 inhibitors in real-world clinical practice. Presentation: Thursday, June 15, 2023
