Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Change From Baseline in Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) to Week 26: Core Period
Baseline, Week 26

Change in HbA1c was calculated by subtracting baseline value from Week 26 value. Adjusted least squares (LS) mean and standard error (SE) were obtained from Mixed-effect model with repeated measures (MMRM) to account for missing data using all available post baseline data during the 26 week treatment period.

Change From Baseline in Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) to Week 52: Single Arm Extension Period
Baseline, Week 52

Change in HbA1c was calculated by subtracting baseline value from Week 52 value.

Secondary Endpoints

Percentage of Participants Reaching HbA1c <7% or <=6.5% at Week 26: Core Period

Treatment Arms

ArmTypeDescription
Insulin Glargine/Lixisenatide Fixed Ratio Combination (FRC)EXPERIMENTALCore period: FRC injected subcutaneously once daily (QD) for 26 weeks on top of oral anti-diabetic drug (OAD) therapy. Dose individually adjusted. Single arm extension period: Participants who completed core treatment period and met eligibility criteria entered in extension treatment period and received same treatment (FRC injected subcutaneously QD on top of OAD therapy) for 26 weeks (up to Week 52). Dose individually adjusted.
GLP-1 Receptor AgonistACTIVE_COMPARATORCore period: GLP-1 RA receptor agonist (liraglutide QD, exenatide twice daily \[BID\], exenatide extended-release QW, albiglutide QW, or dulaglutide QW) injected subcutaneously for 26 weeks on top of OAD therapy. GLP-1 RAs were administered as per local labeling at the same dose schedule as prior to randomization.

What is liraglutide used for in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus?

Liraglutide is used for the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. It is being developed by Sanofi and is currently in Phase 3 clinical development. The drug is a small molecule and is being studied in a clinical trial to evaluate its efficacy and safety in patients with this condition.

What does liraglutide target?

The specific molecular target of liraglutide is not provided in the available information. Therefore, the mechanism of action for this drug is not described here. Liraglutide is being studied for its effects in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, but the target is not specified.

Who makes liraglutide?

Liraglutide is being developed by Sanofi, a company traded under the ticker SNY. Sanofi is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the drug's efficacy and safety for the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

What phase is liraglutide in?

Liraglutide is in Phase 3 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by regulatory authorities. The drug is being studied in a Phase 3 trial to assess its safety and efficacy in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

What clinical trials is liraglutide in?

Liraglutide is being studied in a Phase 3 clinical trial with the identifier NCT02787551. This trial is titled 'Efficacy and Safety of the Insulin Glargine/Lixisenatide Fixed Ratio Combination (FRC) Versus GLP-1 Receptor Agonist in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes, With a FRC Extension Period'. The trial has been completed and enrolled 514 participants.

Is liraglutide the same as insulin glargine/lixisenatide?

Liraglutide is not the same as insulin glargine/lixisenatide. In the clinical trial NCT02787551, liraglutide is being compared against a fixed ratio combination of insulin glargine and lixisenatide. Liraglutide is a separate drug being evaluated for the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
