Summary: Background: Improvements in glycemic outcomes have stalled since 2010 in several international surveys. We previously reported improvements in glycemic control in 2007-2014 in Hong Kong coinciding with primary care reforms, use of dipeptidyl-peptidase 4 inhibitors (DPP-4is) and metformin. The aim of this study was to estimate more recent trends in drug use and glycemic outcomes following introduction of newer classes of glucose-lowering drugs (GLDs). Methods: Using population-based data from the Hong Kong Diabetes Surveillance Database, we explored age-specific trends in proportion of patients reaching glycemic targets and incidence rates of severe hypoglycemia (SH) in 963,612 adults with diabetes in 2002-2019. We further assessed patterns of GLDs utilisation by presence of atherosclerotic-cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), heart failure, and estimated-glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Findings: Following rapid decline in HbA1c from 7·7% to 7·2% in 2005-2014 (annual percentage change [APC]= -0·8, 95% CI:-1·0,-0·6), standardized mean HbA1c plateaued since 2014 (HbA1c 7·2% in 2019, APC=0·0, 95% CI:-0·2, 0·2). The incidence rates of SH declined from 3·4 to 0·7 events per 100-person years, but improvements levelled off since 2014. Use of metformin steadily increased (41·1 to 58·7%), sulfonylureas decreased (52·2 to 31·1%) while insulin remained static in 2002-2019. Adoption of DPP-4is slowed following initial rapid uptake in 2007-2011. DPP-4is remained the most widely prescribed newer GLD in all ages (14·3% in 2019). Use of glucagon-like-peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RAs) and sodium glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) increased rapidly in 2015-2019 with 0·5% and 6% of users respectively in 2019. Interpretation: Following rapid improvement in 2007-2014, glycemic control and SH rates had plateaued despite changing patterns of newer GLDs use in Hong Kong.
