INGELHEIM, Germany & INDIANAPOLIS, Ind - Tuesday, September 17th 2013 [ME NewsWire]
(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Ex - US & Ex - UK Medical Media Only
Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly and Company today announced they will feature five oral and 12 poster presentations for linagliptin and the investigational compound empagliflozin* at the 49th Annual Meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) which will take place in Barcelona, from 23 – 27 September. The presentations will add to the already existing body of data on safety and efficacy of these two compounds.
Empagliflozin Data A total of eight clinical and pre-clinical abstracts for the investigational agent empagliflozin will be presented. Empagliflozin is a member of the sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor class of drugs and is being investigated for the reduction of blood glucose levels in adults with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D).
Details of clinical empagliflozin presentations and published abstracts are as follows:1
Tuesday, 24 September, 12:30–13:30 CET, General Poster Session

Safety and Efficacy of Empagliflozin Monotherapy in a 52-Week Study in Japanese Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (Presenting Author: H. J. Woerle) [Poster No. 930]
Metabolic Response to Sodium Glucose Transporter 2 (SGLT2) Inhibition with Empagliflozin in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) (Presenting Author: E. Ferrannini) [Poster No. 932]

Design of the Empagliflozin Cardiovascular Outcome Event Trial in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (Presenting Author: S. E. Inzucchi) [Poster No. 944]
Wednesday, 25 September, 12:30–13:30 CET, General Poster Session

Thursday, 26 September, 15:00 – 16:30 CET, Oral Presentation
The Sodium Glucose Co-Transporter-2 (SGLT2) Inhibitor Empagliflozin Improves Glycemic Control in Patients with Type 1 Diabetes: a Single-Arm Clinical Trial (Presenting Author: B. A. Perkins) [Oral Presentation No. 183]
* Empagliflozin is an investigational compound. Its safety and efficacy have not been established.
Linagliptin Data A total of nine clinical and pre-clinical abstracts for linagliptin will also be presented. Linagliptin is an inhibitor of the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4), which breaks down the incretin hormones glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) that are involved with regulating blood glucose.2
Details of all clinical presentations and published abstracts are as follows:1
Wednesday, 25 September, 10:45 – 12:15 CET, Oral Presentation
Baseline Characteristics of Participants Enrolled in the Cardiovascular Outcome Study of Linagliptin versus Glimepiride in Early Type 2 Diabetes (CAROLINA) (Presenting Author: J. Rosenstock) [Oral Presentation No. 73]
Wednesday, 25 September, 12:30 – 13:30 CET, General Poster Session
Efficacy and Safety of Linagliptin as Add-On Therapy to Basal Insulin and Metformin in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes (Presenting Author: S. Durán-Garcia) [Poster No. 892]
Wednesday, 25 September, 15:00 – 16:30 CET, Oral Presentation
Cardiovascular (CV) Safety of Linagliptin in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D): A Pooled Comprehensive Analysis of Prospectively Adjudicated CV Events in Phase 3 Studies (Presenting Author: O. E. Johansen) [Oral Presentation No. 112]
Linagliptin and the Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker Telmisartan Show Comparable Efficacy but Different Renoprotective Pathways in Rats with 5/6 Nephrectomy (Presenting Author: B. Hocher) [Oral Presentation No. 143]
Thursday, 26 September, 10:45 – 12:15 CET, Oral Presentation
Insights into the Mechanism of Action of Linagliptin in Reducing Ischaemic Brain Damage Following Stroke in Diabetic and Non-Diabetic Mice (Presenting Author: V. Darsalia) [Oral Presentation No. 152]
Thursday, 26 September, 12:30 – 13:30 CET, General Poster Session
Renal Safety and Outcomes with Linagliptin: Meta-Analysis of Individual Data for 5466 Patients with Type 2 Diabetes (Presenting Author: M. von Eynatten) [Poster No. 913]
Linagliptin versus Placebo followed by Glimepiride in Type 2 Diabetes Patients with Moderate to Severe Renal Impairment (Presenting Author: P-H. Groop) [Poster No. 914]
Thursday, 26 September, 13:45 – 14:45 CET, General Poster Session
Safety and Tolerability of Linagliptin in 7400 Patients with Type 2 Diabetes: A Pooled Comprehensive Analysis of Prospective Safety Reporting in Placebo-Controlled Studies (Presenting Author: M. Lehrke) [Poster No. 986]
Renal Safety of Linagliptin in Elderly Patients with Type 2 Diabetes: Analysis of Pooled Patient Data From 7 Phase 3 Clinical Trials (Presenting Author: A. H. Barnett) [Poster No. 926]
Linagliptin, which is marketed as Trajenta® 5mg tablets in Europe, is a once-daily tablet used along with diet and exercise to improve glycaemic control in adults with Type 2 Diabetes. Linagliptin should not be used in patients with Type 1 Diabetes or for the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis (increased ketones in the blood or urine). Linagliptin is the only approved DPP-4 inhibitor that does not require dose adjustments regardless of renal or hepatic function.
