Popis: Aims To investigate the incidence of and risk factors for new-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) developed during chemotherapy that included steroids in cancer patients without DM. Methods This multicenter, prospective, and observational cohort study enrolled 299 cancer patients without DM (aged > 18 years), planning 4–8 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy. The endpoints were the incidence, remission rate, and independent determinants of new-onset DM during chemotherapy. Results Between April 2015 and March 2018, 270 subjects with colorectal cancer or breast cancer (mean age, 51.0 years) completed the follow up (mean 39 months). Of whom, 17 subjects (6.3%) developed DM within a median time of 90 days (range, 17–359 days). Male sex (hazard ratio [HR], 15.839; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.004–125.20) and impaired fasting glucose (IFG) at baseline (HR, 8.307; CI, 1.826–37.786) were independent risk factors. Six months after chemotherapy completion, 11/17 subjects (64.7%) experienced DM remission, associated with a significantly higher C-peptide level at baseline (C-peptide levels, 1.3 ng/mL in subjects with remission and 0.9 ng/mL in subjects without remission, age- and sex-adjusted P = 0.007). Conclusions DM incidence was 6.3% in patients who received chemotherapy with dexamethasone. Close monitoring for hyperglycemia is recommended, especially for men with IFG. Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03062072).
