Combination therapy of Elecoglipron and Dapagliflozin in adults with type 2 diabetes

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Parallel-group Phase III Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Elecoglipron and Dapagliflozin in Combination, Compared With Elecoglipron Alone and Dapagliflozin Alone, in Adults With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (Eluminate-5)

Run by AstraZeneca · NCT07662109 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This trial tests whether the combination of Elecoglipron and Dapagliflozin works better than each drug alone to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults with type 2 diabetes for at least 90 days, HbA1c 7–10.5%, BMI ≥23, and stable body weight on or off background glucose-lowering therapy.

Probably not a fit

Patients with type 1 diabetes, major GI disorders, recent severe hypoglycemia, or other disqualifying conditions may not benefit from this combination.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

In this Phase 3 study, adults with type 2 diabetes who are not adequately controlled with lifestyle changes or existing glucose-lowering medications will be randomized to receive Elecoglipron, Dapagliflozin, or their matched-placebo combinations. The goal is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of the combination versus the single agents. Key outcomes include changes in HbA1c and other safety measures over a defined treatment period. Eligible participants have stable weight, BMI ≥23, and HbA1c between 7% and 10.5%. Exclusion criteria include type 1 diabetes, significant GI conditions, and recent severe hypoglycemia. The study is sponsored by AstraZeneca with locations in Huntsville, Mobile, and Sheffield, Alabama.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, patients could experience better blood sugar control with a combination therapy that may offer added benefit over each drug alone.

How similar studies have gone: Previous studies of similar combinations have shown promise in improving glycemic control, but this specific combined approach is under investigation in a Phase 3 setting.
