1598-P: HbA1c <7.0% 6 Months after Initiation of Second-Line Therapy in Patients with Uncontrolled Type 2 Diabetes Is Associated with Good Glycemic Control at 3 Years: The DISCOVER Study

Background: DISCOVER is a 3-year, observational study of people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) initiating a second-line glucose-lowering therapy in 38 countries. We assessed glycemic control after 3 years in participants with HbA1c ≥ 9.0% at baseline. Methods: Factors associated with an increased likelihood of having HbA1c Results: Of 14 691 DISCOVER participants from 37 countries, 2233 (15.2%) had sufficient HbA1c data and HbA1c ≥ 9.0% at baseline. The majority of participants were men (58.0%), and the mean age was 54.4 years (SD: 11.2 years). The mean HbA1c at baseline was 10.4% (SD: 1.4%). After 3 years, 626 participants (28.0%) had HbA1c Conclusions: Less than a third of participants with HbA1c ≥ 9.0% at initiation of second-line therapy reached HbA1c Disclosure F.
