Efficacy and Safety of Soliqua Versus Lantus in Ethnically/Racially Diverse Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Inadequately Controlled on Basal Insulin and Oral Antidiabetic Agents

What this study is testing ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03434119 ↗

Description as written by the study sponsor.

Primary Objective: * To demonstrate the superiority of Soliqua 100/33 versus Lantus in the hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) change within the overall population. * To demonstrate the benefit of Soliqua 100/33 versus Lantus in the HbA1c within each ethnic/racial subgroup evaluated (ie, Hispanics of any race, non-Hispanic black/African Americans and non-Hispanic Asians). Secondary Objective: * To assess the effects of Soliqua 100/33 versus Lantus on the secondary efficacy parameters within each ethnic/racial subgroup evaluated. * To assess the change in daily insulin glargine dose within each ethnic/racial subgroup. * To evaluate the safety and tolerability (e.g., gastrointestinal tolerability) of Soliqua 100/33 versus Lantus within each ethnic/racial subgroup.

Treatments tested

• Insulin glargine/Lixisenatide also known as Soliqua 100/33, HOE901/AVE0010 Drug

  Insulin glargine (100 units per milliliter \[U/mL\]) and lixisenatide (33 micrograms per milliliter \[mcg/mL\]) self administered by a subcutaneous injection using a prefilled pen. Dose was individually titrated to achieve target fasting self-monitoring of plasma glucose (SMPG) of 80 to 100 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) (4.4 to 5.6 millimoles per liter \[mmol/L\]) while avoiding hypoglycemia.

• Insulin glargine (HOE901) also known as Lantus, HOE901 Drug

  Insulin glargine 100 U/mL self-administered by a subcutaneous injection using a prefilled pen. Dose was individually titrated to achieve target fasting SMPG of 80 to 100 mg/dL (4.4 to 5.6 mmol/L) while avoiding hypoglycemia.

• Background therapy Drug

  Oral Anti diabetics Drugs (OADs) administered orally according to the locally approved label.
