This meta-analysis compared adherence to injectable GLP-1RAs dosed once weekly vs once daily in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), finding that once weekly dosing was associated with better adherence.
Background Suboptimal medication adherence has been associated with increased resource utilisation and mortality among patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are becoming increasingly important in the treatment of T2D. However, medications in this class differ considerably in their dosing frequency, which may impact adherence. We sought to perform a meta-analysis to compare adherence to injectable GLP-1RAs dosed once weekly vs once daily in patients with T2D. Methods Medline and Scopus were searched from 1/2005 to 7/2020 using keywords and MeSH terms pertaining to adherence and GLP-1RAs. Studies of adults with T2D were included if they compared adherence (as measured by proportion of days covered [PDC]) to injectable GLP-1RAs dosed once weekly vs once daily. A meta-analysis of non-overlapping studies was performed to evaluate the primary outcome of non-adherence, defined as the proportion of patients with a PDC A total of 7 studies evaluating 75 159 patients (range: 2886-30 097) with T2D were included. The follow-up periods of included studies ranged from 6 to 12 months. Injectable GLP-1RAs dosed once weekly were either dulaglutide, albiglutide or exenatide extended release; while liraglutide was the injectable once daily agent evaluated in all included studies. Upon meta-analysis, once weekly GLP-1RA dosing was associated with an 11% lower risk of non-adherence compared to once daily dosing (risk ratio = 0.89; 95% confidence interval = 0.83-0.95; I-2 = 89%). Conclusion Once weekly dosing of injectable GLP-1RAs was associated with better adherence vs once daily dosing among patients with T2D. These findings coupled with the known detrimental consequences of non-adherence suggest that dosing frequency is an important factor to consider when selecting a GLP-1RA.
