A substantial proportion of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) do not reach their target HbA1c level on metformin. The objective of this retrospective observational cohort study is to better characterize the distance between HbA1c target and patient's actual HbA1c level (the distance to goal), using a target HbA1c of 7.0% (53 mmol/mol), in patients with T2DM who have started metformin monotherapy.

Objective: Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors have been used for the management of type 2 diabetes (T2D) for over a decade; however, there is a limited understanding of the evolution of their use in the real-world setting over this time period. This study evaluated the demographics and clinical characteristics of patients initiating sitagliptin over a 10 year period in the United States.
Research Design And Methods: Quintiles electronic medical records database was used to identify adults with a new prescription of sitagliptin over two 5 year time periods: 2006-2010 (n = 57,604), and 2011-2015 (n = 147,326).
