Aims/Introduction  We recently reported the beneficial effect of the combination of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor and dipeptidyl peptidase‐4 inhibitor on daily glycemic variability in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Additional favorable effects of combination therapy were explored in this secondary analysis.    Materials and Methods  The CALMER study was a multicenter, open‐label, prospective, randomized, parallel‐group comparison trial for type 2 diabetes mellitus involving continuous glucose monitoring under meal tolerance tests. Patients were randomly assigned to switch from teneligliptin to canagliflozin (SWITCH group) or to add canagliflozin to teneligliptin (COMB group). The continuous glucose monitoring metrics, including time in target range, were investigated.    Results  All 99 participants (mean age 62.3 years; mean glycated hemoglobin 7.4%) completed the trial. The time in target range was increased in the COMB group (71.2–82.7%,  P  < 0.001). The extent of the reduction in time above target range was significantly larger in the COMB group compared with the SWITCH group (−14.8% vs −7.5%,  P  < 0.01). Area under the curve values for glucose at 120 min after all meal tolerance tests were significantly decreased in the COMB group compared with the SWITCH group ( P  < 0.05).    Conclusions  Sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor combined with dipeptidyl peptidase‐4 inhibitor improved the quality of glycemic variability and reduced postprandial hyperglycemia compared with each monotherapy.
