Impact of tumor necrosis factor inhibitors and methotrexate on diabetes mellitus among patients with inflammatory arthritis

Abstract: Background To determine whether initiation of a tumor necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) or methotrexate improves hemoglobin A1c in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), or ankylosing spondylitis (AS) who also have diabetes mellitus (DM). Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted in Optum’s de-identified Clinformatics® Data Mart Database, an administrative claims database, using data from 2000 to 2014. Patients with PsA, RA, or AS, w… Show more

“…In the study, HbA1c decreased after initiation of TNFi [median −0.35, interquartile range (IQR) 1.10–0.30] and MTX (median 0.40, IQR 1.20–0.30), and this reduction was about half (~ 0.4 units) the decrease observed after initiation of metformin. 80 …”

“…The pleiotropic nature of TNF- α defines a broad potential for the treatment of autoimmune and immune-mediated disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, refractory asthma, and hidradenitis suppurativa. Strong evidence already supported that modulating the TNF- α pathway in patients with inflammatory rheumatic conditions and T2D could improve insulin sensitivity [ 45 ] and modestly lower HbA1c values [ 46 ].…”

“…Interestingly, biologic DMARDs administration in some JIA cases is associated with a significant improvement of HbA1c and better long-term metabolic control of diabetes. It should probably be recommended instead of GCS when it is possible [ 12 , 39 , 40 ]. Also, the patients receiving biologic DMARDs for JIA require less insulin therapy for diabetes [ 18 ].…”
