Abstract

TROPHIES was a 24-month, prospective, non-comparative, observational study in adult patients with T2D initiating their first injectable glucose-lowering treatment with once-weekly dulaglutide (DU; N=1,014) or once-daily liraglutide (LIRA; N=991) in France, Germany, and Italy. Primary objective: to assess the time patients remained on their first GLP-1 RA without a significant treatment change due to treatment- or diabetes-related factors. Kaplan-Meier (KM) probability (95% CI) of no significant treatment change at 24 months was 0.71 (0.68-0.74) and 0.53 (0.49-0.56) in the DU and LIRA cohorts, respectively (Figure) . Two-hundred and eighty-six (28.2%) and 448 (45.2%) patients receiving DU and LIRA, respectively, had a significant treatment change. The main driver of treatment change in the DU and LIRA cohorts was intensification with an add-on therapy (insulin or OAD) and intensification with dose increase of GLP-1 RA, respectively. KM probability (95% CI) of GLP-1 RA persistence at 24 months was high in both cohorts: DU 0.82 (0.80-0.85) ; LIRA 0.75 (0.72-0.78) . In summary, the probabilities of no significant treatment change over 24 months were estimated as higher in the DU cohort than in the LIRA cohort in this non-comparative analysis, with good persistence in both cohorts.
