Evaluating iGlarLixi for managing Type 2 Diabetes in Chinese patients

A 20-week, Multicenter, Prospective, Parallel-group Treatment, Open-label, 2-Arm, Phase 4, Randomized Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of iGlarLixi Versus Gla-100 on Glycemic Time in Range (TIR) From Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) in Chinese Insulin Naïve Patients With Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) Inadequately Controlled With Oral Antidiabetics

Phase 4 Interventional Sanofi · NCT06671587

This study is testing whether a new diabetes treatment called iGlarLixi can help Chinese patients with Type 2 Diabetes better control their blood sugar compared to a standard medication.

What this trial studies

This open-label, randomized, active-controlled study aims to compare the effects of iGlarLixi and Gla-100 on glycemic control in Chinese patients with Type 2 Diabetes who are inadequately controlled on oral antidiabetic medications. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatment groups and monitored over a 20-week period using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices. The study will include 14 visits, with a combination of on-site and phone consultations to ensure comprehensive data collection and patient support throughout the treatment duration.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are Chinese individuals diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes for at least one year, currently on stable doses of metformin or a combination of metformin and another oral antidiabetic drug.

Not a fit: Patients with severe renal dysfunction, short life expectancy, or a history of significant pancreatitis may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide a more effective treatment option for managing Type 2 Diabetes in patients who are not adequately controlled with oral medications.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promising results with similar GLP-1 receptor agonist approaches, indicating potential for success in this trial.
