| Popis: | Background: This study presents real-world effectiveness of sema OW in a cohort of US commercially insured/Medicare Advantage T2D patients newly initiating a GLP-1 agonist. Methods: Claims and lab result data were used to identify T2D patients who initiated sema OW between 12/1/17 - 6/30/20 (index as first claim). Selected patients had ≥1 A1c result within ≤3 months pre- and ≥3 months post-index. Patients with no claim for any GLP-1 agonist in the 12 months prior to index and persistent on sema OW (those with a sema OW prescription with days supply dispensed overlapping/in proximity of date of post-index A1c) were assessed for A1c changes and stratified by age ( 9%. Results: Of 1,842 patients newly initiating sema OW, 49% were female and 8% were ≥ 65 years of age. The pre/post change in A1c was significant in all patients (-1.3%) and in each age subgroup ( 9%, regardless of age. Attainment of A1c Conclusion: nitiation of sema OW in T2D patients naive to GLP-1 agonists and persistent on sema OW was associated with a significant reduction in A1c and an increase in target attainment of A1c Disclosure N.
