Frequently asked questions about GEMIGLIPTIN LS15-0444

What is GEMIGLIPTIN LS15-0444 used for?

GEMIGLIPTIN LS15-0444 is an investigational small molecule being developed for the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. It is intended for patients whose blood sugar is not adequately controlled, including as add-on therapy to metformin. It has been studied in a Phase 3 trial in adults with Type 2 Diabetes.

What does GEMIGLIPTIN LS15-0444 target?

GEMIGLIPTIN LS15-0444 targets DPP4, also known as dipeptidyl peptidase-4. It acts as a DPP4 inhibitor. By inhibiting this enzyme, the drug is designed to affect incretin hormones involved in glucose regulation, which is the mechanism explored for lowering blood sugar in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Who is developing GEMIGLIPTIN LS15-0444?

GEMIGLIPTIN LS15-0444 is being developed by Sanofi, which trades under the ticker SNY. Sanofi is the sponsor of the clinical program for this DPP4 inhibitor in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

What phase is GEMIGLIPTIN LS15-0444 in?

GEMIGLIPTIN LS15-0444 is in Phase 3 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by the FDA. The Phase 3 trial for this asset has been completed, and no active trials are currently listed for it.

What clinical trials is GEMIGLIPTIN LS15-0444 in?

GEMIGLIPTIN LS15-0444 has been studied in one Phase 3 clinical trial, NCT02343926. This completed trial compared the efficacy and safety of gemigliptin and vildagliptin as add-on therapy to metformin in people with Type 2 Diabetes inadequately controlled with metformin. It enrolled 443 participants in Russia.

Is GEMIGLIPTIN LS15-0444 the same as gemigliptin?

Yes, GEMIGLIPTIN LS15-0444 is also known as gemigliptin. The identifier LS15-0444 refers to the same DPP4 inhibitor compound being developed by Sanofi for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
