Impact of Time of Injection on the Efficacy and Safety of iGlarLixi Versus IDegAsp in Chinese People With Type 2 Diabetes: Exploratory Analysis of the Soli‐D Study

Diabetes Obes MetabPublished Exploratory analysis of the Soli-D randomised trial

Authors' conclusion

Once-daily iGlarLixi, injected before breakfast, was associated with improved HbA1c control and greater average 2-h PPG reductions compared with IDegAsp, regardless of injection time, in Chinese adults with T2D suboptimally controlled with OADs.

Primary result

As reported in the abstract

HbA1c reduction from baseline, by IDegAsp injection time · Week 24

Least squares mean difference

−0.24 %

−2.3 mmol/mol

iGlarLixi vs IDegAsp lunch · greater reduction with iGlarLixi

Least squares mean difference

−0.29 %

−3.2 mmol/mol

iGlarLixi vs IDegAsp dinner · greater reduction with iGlarLixi

Least squares mean difference

−0.12 %

−1.3 mmol/mol

iGlarLixi vs IDegAsp breakfast · slightly greater reduction with iGlarLixi

Further findings

Average 2-h PPG reduction

Greater with iGlarLixi than IDegAsp, regardless of injection time

Body weight and total insulin dose

Reduced body weight and lower total insulin doses with iGlarLixi vs IDegAsp in all injection-time subgroups

Safety

Less hypoglycaemia risk with iGlarLixi vs IDegAsp in all injection-time subgroups
