Abstract

The fixed-ratio combination of insulin glargine plus lixisenatide (iGlarLixi) improved derived time-in-range (dTIR) by 25.7% compared to 15.8% for insulin glargine alone.

  • iGlarLixi showed greater improvements in dTIR from baseline to end of treatment compared to insulin glargine, lixisenatide, and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists.
  • At the end of treatment, the derived time-below-range (dTBR) was low across all treatment groups, with iGlarLixi showing a dTBR of 0.71%.
  • Improvements in LS means dTIR were consistent in participants younger than 65 years and those aged 65 years or older when treated with iGlarLixi.
  • The findings suggest iGlarLixi may be associated with favorable glucose control in individuals with type 2 diabetes.
