1884-LB: Real-World Impact of Once-Weekly Injectable Semaglutide (sema OW) vs. Sodium–Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors (SGLT2i) on HbA1c, Weight, and Health Care Resource Utilization (HCRU) Outcomes in Type 2 Diabetes (T2D)—An Observational Study (PAUSE)

Introduction first prescription = index) used data from IQVIA PharMetrics® Plus and Ambulatory Electronic Medical Records databases. Changes in HbA1c, weight, BMI and all-cause medical HCRU outcomes after 1 year were compared among inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) adjusted cohorts. Results: Post-IPTW (sema OW: n=416; SGLT2i: n=1093) a significantly higher proportion of pts in the sema OW cohort had combined reductions in HbA1c/weight outcomes vs SGLT2i (Figure). The sema OW cohort had significantly greater mean decreases in HbA1c (-1.6 vs -1.2%, p0.0001), weight (-4.4 vs -3.4 kg, p0.0001) and BMI (-1.5 vs -1.1 kg/m2, p=0.013) vs SGLT2i. Over 1-yr follow-up, all-cause HCRU was similar between both cohorts (≥1 hospitalization: 6.0 vs 5.7%, p=0.8190; ≥1 ER visit: 15.2 vs 17.6%, p=0.2658; ≥1 physician office visit: 99.7 vs 99.1%, p=0.2134). Conclusion: Sema OW was associated with greater improvements in HbA1c and weight vs SGLT2i, but with similar HCRU after 1 year. Disclosure J. Amamoo: None. R.P. Doshi: None. J.
