Meta AnalysisCardiovascular safety with linagliptin in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a pre-specified, prospective, and adjudicated meta-analysis of a phase 3 programme.
This study investigated the cardiovascular (CV) safety profile of the dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-4 inhibitor linagliptin versus comparator treatments. ⋯ These results from a large Phase 3 programme support the hypothesis that linagliptin may have CV benefits in patients with T2DM.
