Ozempic’s SUSTAIN-67 study had 3297 patients, 83% of them had prior cardiovascular disease, 39% of them were female, and the median follow-up was 2.1 years.
Rybelsus’ PIONEER 68,9 study had 3183 patients, 85% of them had prior cardiovascular disease, 32% of them were female, and the median follow-up was 1.3 years.
Adlyxin’s ELIXA10 study had 6068 patients, 100% of them had prior cardiovascular disease, 31% of them were female, and the median follow-up was 2.1 years.
Criteria for prior cardiovascular disease may vary between study protocols. Please refer to study descriptions for individual study criteria.
No comparison can be made between GLP-1 RA CVOT outcomes due to differences in study design, population, and key inclusion/exclusion criteria.
*In REWIND, patients without established CV disease had multiple CV risk factors.
†In a study that evaluated the generalizability of the results of GLP-1 RA CVOTs to the overall population of type 2 diabetes patients in the US, key baseline characteristics of four GLP-1 RA CVOTs (EXSCEL, LEADER, REWIND, and SUSTAIN-6) were compared to the characteristics in a reference of the general type 2 diabetes population (primarily from IQVIA database). Based on its criteria, 42.6% of the reference population were eligible for enrollment in REWIND, versus 15.9% in EXSCEL, 13.0% in SUSTAIN-6, and 12.9% in LEADER. None of the trials were fully representative of the reference population, which included commercially insured patients <65 years of age, but may not be aligned to the general population.9

Select Important Safety Information:
Pancreatitis has been reported in clinical trials. Observe patients for signs and symptoms including persistent severe abdominal pain sometimes radiating to the back, which may or may not be accompanied by vomiting. If pancreatitis is suspected, discontinue Trulicity promptly. Do not restart if pancreatitis is confirmed. Consider other antidiabetic therapies in patients with a history of pancreatitis.
Trulicity is the first and only GLP-1 RA to reduce the risk of CV death, nonfatal MI, or nonfatal stroke* in both primary and secondary prevention† patients1

CV indications for GLP-1 RAs‡
A chart compares the cardiovascular (CV) indications of oral or injectable GLP-1 RAs that are marketed in the US, have a cardiovascular outcomes trial (CVOT), and are indicated for risk reduction of major adverse cardiovascular events, which include CV death, nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), and nonfatal stroke for patients with type 2 diabetes.
The five medications in the chart are given a checkmark showing if they are indicated for primary prevention patients with multiple CV risk factors or for secondary prevention patients with established cardiovascular disease (CVD).
Trulicity1 is shown to be indicated for both primary prevention patients with multiple CV risk factors and for secondary prevention patients with established CVD.
Rybelsus11 is shown to be indicated for neither primary prevention patients with multiple CV risk factors nor for secondary prevention patients with established CVD.
Ozempic12 is shown to be indicated for secondary prevention patients with established CVD but not primary prevention patients with multiple CV risk factors.
Victoza13 is shown to be indicated for secondary prevention patients with established CVD but not primary prevention patients with multiple CV risk factors.
Bydureon14 is shown to be indicated for neither primary prevention patients with multiple CV risk factors nor for secondary prevention patients with established CVD.
‡Indicated for risk reduction of major adverse CV events (CV death, nonfatal MI, or nonfatal stroke) for patients with type 2 diabetes.
MI=myocardial infarction
This chart includes oral or injectable GLP-1 RAs that are marketed in the US and have a CVOT.
Trulicity showed a significant reduction of MACE-3,* even with a majority primary prevention patient population†2
Median follow-up was 5.4 years with the Kaplan-Meier curves starting to diverge within the first year.
Trulicity is indicated to reduce the risk of major adverse CV events (cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke) in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.1
- Without established CVD who have multiple CV risk factors
- With established CVD
The primary composite outcome (MACE-3) occurred in 594 (12.0%) participants assigned to Trulicity + standard of care and 663 (13.4%) participants assigned to placebo + standard of care (hazard ratio [HR] 0.88, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.79-0.99; P=.026).
The safety profile of Trulicity was consistent with the GLP-1 receptor agonist class.2 The most common adverse events leading to the discontinuation of Trulicity were gastrointestinal events.15
*MACE-3 is a composite outcome comprising CV death, nonfatal MI, or nonfatal stroke.†Primary prevention: Reducing the risk of ASCVD by preventing or managing risk factors.
Secondary prevention: Reducing the risk of another event in people who have had a serious CV incident or procedure.3
In the Trulicity CVOT, risk reduction was seen even with a relatively well-controlled mean baseline A1C for patients with type 2 diabetes2,4
REWIND participants had lower baseline A1C levels compared to other GLP-1 RA CVOTs 2,4-8,10,16

Trulicity CVOT study description2,4
REWIND was a global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, event-driven study

Trulicity’s cardiovascular outcomes trial (CVOT), REWIND, was a global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, event-driven study. It was designed to include patients1 with type 2 diabetes who are at least 50 years old, have an A1C less than or equal to 9.5%, have cardiovascular disease (CVD) or cardiovascular risk factors, and have been on no more than 2 oral antidiabetic drugs with or without basal insulin for 3 months or longer.
The primary objective was to determine whether treatment with Trulicity (1.5 milligrams once a week) has a lower hazard of cardiovascular events compared with placebo in patients receiving standard of care.
The primary outcome was MACE-3 (composite of CV death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, or nonfatal stroke).
*Criteria listed do not encompass the full inclusion/exclusion criteria of the trial. See the REWIND study description for a more complete representation.
