Once‐weekly insulin efsitora alfa: Design and rationale for the QWINT phase 3 clinical development programme

Diabetes Obes MetabPublished Design and rationale review of a phase 3 clinical development programme

Study context

Population
Insulin-naïve adults with T2D (QWINT-1, −2), adults with T2D previously on basal insulin (QWINT-3, −4), adults with T1D (QWINT-5)5 trials
Planned comparison
Once-weekly insulin efsitora alfa vs once-daily basal insulin comparators (insulin glargine U100 or insulin degludec U100)
Primary endpoint
Change in HbA1c from baseline, efsitora vs active comparator
Follow-up
Week 26 or 52
Methodological detailsfive trials (QWINT-1 to QWINT-5), multicentre, randomized, controlled, open-label, treat-to-target, Key secondary objectives: change in fasting glucose, insulin dose, CGM variables and patient-reported outcome questionnaires
