Efficacy of once‐daily glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist lixisenatide as an add‐on treatment to basal insulin in Asian and white adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus: An individual‐level pooled analysis of phase III studies
Abstract:Aims/Introduction
The prevalence and pathophysiological background of type 2 diabetes mellitus vary across ethnicities, and can affect treatment responses. Adding lixisenatide to basal insulin (BI) in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients has shown improvements in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and postprandial glycemic (PPG) excursions, without increasing hypoglycemic events. We aim to compare the efficacy of lixisenatide in Asian and white patients inadequately controlled with basal insulin.
