AZ Triple Combo Approved as Qternmet XR; Qtern Label Update

AstraZeneca announced FDA approval for its triple combination, Qternmet XR (dapagliflozin+saxagliptin+metformin XR), for improvement of glycemic control in patients with T2DM (Qternmet XR FDA label). Additionally, the Qtern label (dapagliflozin+saxagliptin) was updated with 3 notable changes: 1) eGFR cutoff lowered to 45ml/min/1.73m2 which is now consistent with Farxiga, 2) a new 5mg dapa/5mg saxa strength is now available, and 3) the indication no longer requires dapa failure or concurrent use of dapa and saxa. Below, FENIX provides thoughts on the new triple combination FDC and Qtern label updates.
