    Summary
    After 24 weeks, lixisenatide once daily significantly improved HbA1c (-0.56% vs. placebo; p < 0.0001) and increased the proportion of patients achieving HbA1c <7% compared with placebo (52.3% vs. 26.4%, respectively; p < 0.0001) and significantly improved fasting plasma glucose (-0.84 mmol/l vs. placebo; p < 0.0001).
