Introduction: Saxagliptin (see drug summary box) is a glucose-lowering agent that belongs to the class of Dipeptidylpeptidase-4 (DDP-4) inhibitors used in the treatment of T2DM. Clinical efficacy of saxagliptin as single agent as well as in combination with other medications used for the treatment of T2DM has been well established in several randomized trials. Treatment with saxagliptin is effective, generally safe and well tolerated, apart from a small increase in the incidence of infections such as nasopharyngitis. Its use is not associated with increase risk of hypoglycemia and it is weight neutral. Saxagliptin can be used safely in renal failure (with dose adjustment) and in hepatic impairment. When saxagliptin is used in combination with a strong inhibitor of CYP3A4/A5, reduction in the daily dosage is recommended. Areas covered: This paper briefly discusses efficacy and pharmacokinetics of saxagliptin. The paper highlights in detail saxagliptin-Associated adverse effects, drug interactions, its use in patients with renal and hepatic disease and long-term safety concerns. Expert opinion: Saxagliptin has comparable efficacy with other DPP-4 inhibitors. It is generally safe and well tolerated; however, it requires dose adjustment in renal disease as well as when used with drugs that are strong inhibitor or inducer of CYP3A4/A5 isoforms. Future safety questions regarding immune system and development of cancer still remain to be completely answered.

<abstract_text><p>In this work, different chemometric calibration models were developed and validated for the purpose of determining of ternary mixture of oral antidiabetic drugs; vildagliptin (VDG), saxagliptin (SAX) and sitagliptin phosphate (STG). The used models were Partial least squares (PLS) and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). However, on these various models the impact of genetic algorithm (GA) as a form of variable selection was also investigated. The UV spectral data was used as basis in the quantitative study of the drugs analyzed in bulk and product formulations. The concentration range of the calibration curves of VDG, SAX and STG were 10-22 mu g mL(-1), 24-40 mu g mL(-1) and 82-130 mu g mL(-1), respectively. The calibration set included nineteen mixtures and the others six were used as a validation set to test the predictability of the developed multivariate models. The validation parameters of the evaluated methods were statistically determined. For the analysis of drugs studied in laboratory-prepared mixtures and their dosage forms, PLS-1, GA-PLS-1, ANN, and GA-ENN were successfully employed. The results obtained by the developed methods were compared to those given by a reported method and there were no statistically significant differences regarding accuracy and precision.

A simple, sensitive and specific hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionization mass spectrometric (HILIC–MS) method was developed and validated to determine the plasma concentrations of metformin, saxagliptin and 5-hydroxy saxagliptin simultaneously in clinical studies. Plasma samples were first acidified and then protein precipitated with acetonitrile. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a HILIC Chrom Matrix HP amide column (5?μm, 3.0?×?100?mm I.D.). The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile and 5?mM ammonium formate buffer containing 0.1% formic acid. Multiple reaction monitoring transitions were performed on triple quadrupole mass spectrometric detection in positive-ion mode with an electrospray ionization source. The calibration curves showed good linearity (r?≥?0.999) over the established concentration range of 1.0–1000?ng/mL for metformin and 0.1–100?ng/mL for saxagliptin and its active metabolite 5-hydroxy saxagliptin. The extraction recovery for all of the analytes was >92% and the matrix effect ranged from 91.0 to 110.0%. After validation, the method was successfully applied to a bioequivalence study with a single-pill combination (SPC) consisting of 5?mg saxagliptin and 500?mg metformin in 10 healthy Chinese subjects.

The Saxagliptin Assessment of Vascular Outcomes Recorded in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus (SAVOR)-Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) 53 trial randomized trial of 16 492 patients (placebo, n = 8212; saxagliptin, n = 8280) treated and followed for a median of 2.1 years afforded an opportunity to explore whether there was any association with cancer reported as a serious adverse event. At least one cancer event was reported by 688 patients (4.1%): 362 (4.3%) and 326 (3.8%) in the placebo and saxagliptin arms, respectively (p = 0.13). There were 59 (0.6%) deaths adjudicated as malignancy deaths with placebo and 53 (0.6%) with saxagliptin. Stratification by gender, age, race and ethnicity, diabetes duration, baseline glycated haemoglobin and pharmacotherapy did not show any clinically meaningful differences between the two study arms. The overall number of cancer events and malignancy-associated mortality rates were generally balanced between the placebo and saxagliptin groups, suggesting a null relationship with saxagliptin use over the median follow-up of 2.1 years. Multivariable modelling showed that male gender, dyslipidaemia and current smoking were independent predictors of cancer. These randomized data with adequate numbers of cancer cases are reassuring but limited, by the short follow-up in a trial not designed to test this hypothesis.

Qternmet XR (R) (FDA approval, May 2019) is a multitarget anti-diabetic drug combination composed of metformin (MET), saxagliptin (SAX) and dapagliflozin (DAP). To our present knowledge, no analytical reports were found in the scientific databases for the simultaneous quantification of MET, SAX and DAP in their ternary combined tablets, moreover, no articles have attempted the simultaneous estimation of the cited drugs in any matrix using high-performance liquid chromatography with diode-array detection (HPLC-DAD) or high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) technique. The current work represents a comparative study on two developed and validated chromatographic methods for the simultaneous determination of the ternary mixture (MET, SAX and DAP) in pure form and in combined tablet dosage form. The first method is reversed-phase HPLC using Agilent C18 column (4.6 x 250 mm, 5 mu m p.s.) with a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and acidic aqueous phase pH 3 with a photodiode array detection at 230 nm. The second method is HPTLC in which drug solutions were applied to Merck HPTLC silica gel plates developed with a mixture of chloroform:methanol:water:acetic acid (7.4:2.6:0.5:0.01, v/v) and scanned at 224 nm. Both methods were fully validated following the ICH guidelines in terms of linearity, accuracy, precision, selectivity and robustness.

AimsRecent reports in the literature have suggested that glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)-based therapies may lead to increased risk of pancreatic pathology leading to chronic pancreatic injury and pancreatic neoplasia. Extensive non-clinical and clinical safety testing was conducted to support the global development of exenatide twice daily, exenatide once weekly and saxagliptin. Our aim was to integrate these non-clinical data obtained with both mechanisms of GLP-1-based drugs to provide complementary data regarding the potential for drug-induced pancreatic safety signals.

Background: Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors are widely used as second-option medications when metformin fails. Variance of the glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) response to DPP-4 inhibitions in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has been observed, but the characteristics which predict the response to DPP-4 inhibitor therapy are unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the characteristics of a- and b-cell functions which might predict the efficacy of saxagliptin and facilitate personalization of treatment. Methods: We studied 60 patients with T2DM who had inadequate glycemic control [HbA1c7.0-13.0% (53-119 mmol/mol)) with metformin alone. The patients were treated with saxagliptin (5 mg, daily) and metformin (1000-2000 mg as former) for 12 weeks. Oral glucose tolerance tests were carried out at baseline and endpoint to evaluate a- and b-cell functions, and blood C-peptide, insulin, glucagon levels were tested. Blood glucose, HbA1c and weight were also observed. Results: Significant reduction of weight, HbA1c and glucagon was observed after 12-week treatment, while C-peptide, insulin and homeostasis model assessment-b increased (P\0.05). Linear regression and receiver operating characteristic analysis showed that baseline HbA1c and 30 min-glucagon were correlated with the HbA1c response to saxagliptin, while the weight loss was correlated with gender, age and fasting-insulin level. Further analysis showed the 30 min-glucagon of 49.1 pmol/L was the optimal cutoff value to predict the efficacy of saxagliptin. Conclusions: Saxagliptin added to metformin significantly improved glycemic control and a-and b-cell function. Blood glucagon level was a good predicting factor for the HbA1c response to saxagliptin, and it will help appropriate patient selection.
