Treatment Burden on Once-Weekly Omarigliptin Versus Daily Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitors in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes: Randomized Controlled Trial (ONWARD-DPP4 Study)

ConclusionAlthough this study failed to demonstrate the improvement of DTBQ total score by switching from daily DPP4is to omarigliptin compared with continuing the daily DPP4is, the DTBQ subscale score implementation and flexibility burden score were significantly improved only in the group that switched to omarigliptin, suggesting the possibility of switching from daily DPP4is to omarigliptin to decrease the patients ’ medication burden.Trial RegistrationjRCTs031200437.
