The PDY6797 study evaluated efficacy, safety and pharmacodynamics of lixisenatide in Japanese and Caucasian patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) insufficiently controlled with sulphonylureas with/without metformin.
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial comprised a single-dose assessment of lixisenatide 5 and 10 µg, and a 5- to 6-week repeated dose-escalation assessment of lixisenatide 5 to 30 µg once (QD) or twice daily (BID).
