PG - 80 LID - 10.1186/s12933-019-0884-3 [doi] LID - 80 AB - BACKGROUND: Saroglitazar, a novel dual peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR) agonist, in clinical trials, has shown an improvement in lipid and glycemic parameters through the PPAR-alpha and gamma agonist actions, respectively. It was granted marketing authorization in India in 2013 for diabetic dyslipidemia. This review was conducted to summarize the effects of Saroglitazar in patients with diabetic dyslipidemia in real world clinical studies conducted after marketing authorization in India. METHODS: In this review, we selected real world clinical studies of Saroglitazar published as manuscripts and abstracts presented at scientific conferences. In all these studies, patients with diabetic dyslipidemia were treated with Saroglitazar 4 mg once daily for at least 12 weeks and different lipid and glycemic parameters were measured at the baseline and end of the study. RESULTS: In 18 selected studies (5 published manuscripts and 13 abstracts), a total of 5824 patients with diabetic dyslipidemia were prescribed Saroglitazar 4 mg for a duration ranging from 12 to 58 weeks. Across all the studies, mean age of patients ranged from 49.6 to 59.1 years and the proportion of female patients ranged from 22% to 42%. Across all the studies, there was a consistent mean reduction in triglyceride levels (~ 45% to 62%), total cholesterol levels (~ 17% to 26%), non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels (~ 21% to 36%), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels (~ 11% to 27%), and glycosylated hemoglobin levels (~ 0.7% to 1.6%) with an increase in mean high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels (up to 9%) from baseline to end of the study. Saroglitazar also improved alanine aminotransferase levels and fatty liver (evaluated by FibroScan) in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease patients with diabetic dyslipidemia. Body weight remained unchanged and no significant adverse events (AEs) were reported in the studies. CONCLUSION: Saroglitazar effectively improved lipid and glycemic parameters without significant AEs in patients with diabetic dyslipidemia in real-world clinical studies of up to 58 weeks duration.
