Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of the glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) efpeglenatide versus placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled with diet and exercise alone.
Research Design And Methods: AMPLITUDE-M was a phase 3, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter trial that randomized adults with type 2 diabetes suboptimally controlled with diet and exercise alone to once-weekly efpeglenatide (2, 4, or 6 mg) or placebo for up to 56 weeks. The primary objective was to demonstrate the superiority of efpeglenatide versus placebo for HbA1c reduction at week 30.
Objective: SENIOR compared the efficacy and safety of insulin glargine 300 units/mL (Gla-300) with glargine 100 units/mL (Gla-100) in older people (≥65 years old) with type 2 diabetes.
Research Design And Methods: SENIOR was an open-label, two-arm, parallel-group, multicenter phase 3b trial designed to enroll ∼20% of participants aged ≥75 years. Participants were randomized 1:1 to Gla-300 or Gla-100, titrated to a fasting self-monitored plasma glucose of 5.

Objective: The objective of this study was to compare glucose control in participants with type 1 diabetes receiving insulin glargine 300 units/mL (Gla-300) or glargine 100 units/mL (Gla-100) in the morning or evening, in combination with mealtime insulin.
Research Design And Methods: In this 16-week, exploratory, open-label, parallel-group, two-period crossover study (clinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT01658579), 59 adults with type 1 diabetes were randomized (1:1:1:1) to once-daily Gla-300 or Gla-100 given in the morning or evening (with crossover in the injection schedule).
Background: Insulin glargine 300 U/mL (Gla-300) has a more constant and prolonged action profile than insulin glargine 100 U/mL and in clinical studies is associated with similar glycemic control but less hypoglycemia. Whether its effects are altered by variability of injection time was examined in two 3-month substudies.
Materials And Methods: Eligible participants completing 6 months of optimized treatment with Gla-300 in EDITION 1 (n = 109) and EDITION 2 (n = 89), having a mean hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level of 7.
Objective: To compare the efficacy and safety of new insulin glargine 300 units/mL (Gla-300) with glargine 100 units/mL (Gla-100) in people with type 2 diabetes using basal insulin (≥42 units/day) plus oral antihyperglycemic drugs (OADs).
Research Design And Methods: EDITION 2 was a multicenter, open-label, two-arm study. Adults receiving basal insulin plus OADs were randomized to Gla-300 or Gla-100 once daily for 6 months.
Objective: To compare the efficacy and safety of new insulin glargine 300 units/mL (Gla-300) with glargine 100 units/mL (Gla-100) in people with type 2 diabetes on basal insulin (≥42 units/day) plus mealtime insulin.
Research Design And Methods: EDITION 1 (NCT01499082) was a 6-month, multinational, open-label, parallel-group study. Adults with glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) 7.
Aims: To assess efficacy and safety of lixisenatide once-daily versus placebo in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients inadequately controlled on sulfonylurea (SU) ± metformin.
Methods: In this randomized, double-blind, two-arm, parallel-group, multicenter study, patients received lixisenatide 20 μg once-daily or placebo for 24 weeks in a stepwise dose increase on top of SUs ± metformin. Primary outcome was change in HbA1c from baseline to Week 24.
