Treatment responses to basal insulin glargine 300 U/ml and glargine 100 U/ml in newly defined subphenotypes of type 2 diabetes: A post hoc analysis of the EDITION 3 randomized clinical trial

Diabetes Obes MetabPublished Post hoc analysis of the EDITION 3 randomised clinical trial

Authors' conclusion

Both insulins produce comparable outcomes in type 2 diabetes subphenotypes, but in SIDD, add-on treatment to basal insulin is required to achieve glycaemic targets.

Primary result

As reported in the abstract

26 weeks

MARD and MOD: similar HbA1c decrease with both insulins

16-19 mmol/mol

MARD and MOD: similar fasting plasma glucose (FPG) decrease with both insulins

1.4-1.7 mmol/L

SIDD: HbA1c at week 26 suboptimal despite highest basal insulin doses

57-60 mmol/mol/7.3-7.6%

Safety

OutcomeOR (95% CI)
Level 1 nocturnal hypoglycaemia, MOD0.59 (0.36–0.97)
Level 1 nocturnal hypoglycaemia, SIDD0.49 (0.24–0.99)
Level 2 hypoglycaemia at any time, SIDD0.31 (0.13–0.77)
