Study summary

The study purpose is to assess adverse events in patients with Type 2 diabetes who have newly been prescribed Forxiga for the management of glycemic control

Read the detailed description

Observational Model: Other: A post-marketing evaluation of the safety of Forxiga through an observational prescription adverse event monitoring program (registry-based monitoring program) is warranted to assess real-world incidence of adverse events in routine clinical practice

Groups and cohorts

  • T2DM patients newly prescribed Forxiga

    A post-marketing evaluation of the safety of Forxiga (10 mg tablets, orally once daily for 6 months) through an observational prescription adverse event monitoring program (registry-based monitoring program) is warranted to assess real-world incidence of adverse events in routine clinical practice.

    Drug: Forxiga

Interventions

  • DrugForxiga

    FORXIGA is a prescription medicine used with diet, exercise and sometimes other medicines (which may include metformin; insulin; a sulfonylurea medicine such as gliclazide, glimepiride and glibenclamide; or a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor \[DPP 4 inhibitor\] such as sitagliptin or saxagliptin) to control the levels of blood sugar (glucose) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

    Also known as: Dapagliflozin

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence rates of adverse events, specifically genital infections, urinary tract infections, increased haematocrit, renal impairment, hepatic impairment, bone fractures and cancers, in particular breast, bladder, and prostate cancers

    Assessed in patients with Type 2 diabetes who are treated with Forxiga in routine Australian clinical practice

    Time frame: Up to 6 months

  2. Any early adverse effects as a result of drug interactions in patients with Type 2 diabetes who are treated with Forxiga in routine Australian clinical practice

    Time frame: Up to 6 months

  3. Incidence rates of spontaneously reported hypoglycaemia in patients with Type 2 diabetes who are treated with Forxiga in routine Australian clinical practice

    Time frame: Up to 6 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Rate of prescribing of Forxiga after its introduction to routine Australian clinical practice

    Time frame: Upto 6 months

  2. Indication for prescription of Forxiga in routine Australian clinical practice

    Time frame: Upto 6 months

  3. Change in efficacy and safety variables after treatment with Forxiga for at least 3 months

    Including: * HbA1c * Weight * Systolic blood pressure * Diastolic blood pressure * Heart rate * Serum creatinine * Estimated glomerular filtration rate * Liver function tests \[Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), or bilirubin\]

    Time frame: Baseline and 3 months

  4. Subgroup analyses may be conducted for selected safety parameters

    Subgroups to be evaluated will include gender, age, diabetes duration, concomitant medication, past medical history, and measured laboratory variables (if available)

    Time frame: Upto 6 months
