Aim: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of once-weekly (QW) efpeglenatide in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) suboptimally controlled with oral glucose-lowering drugs and/or basal insulin (BI).
Materials And Methods: Three phase 3, multicentre, randomized controlled trials compared the efficacy and safety of QW efpeglenatide versus dulaglutide when added to metformin (AMPLITUDE-D), efpeglenatide versus placebo when added to BI ± oral glucose-lowering drugs (AMPLITUDE-L) or metformin ± sulphonylurea (AMPLITUDE-S). All trials were terminated early by the sponsor because of funding rather than safety or efficacy concerns.
Introduction: We compared the efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of biosimilar insulin aspart premix SAR341402 Mix 70/30 (70% intermediate SAR341402 protamine and 30% rapid SAR341402 solution) (SAR-Mix) with its originator NovoMix 30 insulin aspart mix (NN-Mix) in adults with type 1 or type 2 diabetes switching from different premix insulin analogs.
Methods: This phase 3, randomized, open-label, multinational, 26-week trial (GEMELLI M) enrolled 402 participants with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. At randomization, participants switched from their prestudy premix insulin NovoMix 30 (n = 341) or Humalog Mix 25/Liprolog Mix 25 (n = 61) to equivalent (1:1) doses of either SAR-Mix or NN-Mix at least twice daily (1:1 randomization).
Introduction: This study compared the efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of biosimilar insulin aspart premix SAR341402 Mix 70/30 (SAR-Mix) with European-approved insulin aspart mix 70/30 - NovoMix® 30 (NN-Mix) in people with type 1 (T1D) or type 2 diabetes (T2D).
Methods: This 26-week, open-label, phase 3 trial enrolled 402 people with T1D (n = 105) or T2D (n = 297) previously treated with premix insulin, who were randomized (1:1) to SAR-Mix (n = 204) or NN-Mix (n = 198).
Results: After 26 weeks, the least squares (LS) mean [median] change in HbA1c from baseline was similar in both treatment groups (SAR-Mix - 0.
To compare real-world outcomes with newer (insulin glargine 300 U/mL; Gla-300) versus standard of care (SoC) basal insulins (BIs) in the REACH (insulin-naïve; NCT02967224) and REGAIN (basal insulin-treated; NCT02967211) studies in participants with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in Europe and Brazil. In these open-label, parallel-group, pragmatic studies, patients (HbA > 7.0%) were randomized to Gla-300 or SoC BI for a 6-month treatment period (to demonstrate non-inferiority of Gla-300 vs SoC BIs for HbA change [non-inferiority margin 0.

This research presents the first use of a patient-reported outcome measure designed to assess patient-perceived benefits and disadvantages of drugs received during clinical studies.
Methods: The Patient's Qualitative Assessment of Treatment (PQAT) was developed in English and cognitively tested with US (n = 4) and Canadian (n = 3) patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
