  1. 01HumanRandomized controlled trialEfficacy outcome

    In patients with type 2 diabetes receiving basal insulin, lixisenatide significantly reduced glucose standard deviation, MAG, MAGE, HBGI, and fasting glucose AUC versus placebo.

    In plain wordsLixisenatide reduced the listed blood sugar variability measures more than placebo in patients receiving basal insulin.

    Summary
    Values for s.d., MAG level, MAGE, HBGI, and AUC-F significantly decreased with LIXI vs placebo, while LBGI values were unchanged.

    Summary · context
    We conducted a pooled analysis of patient-level data from three 24-week, randomized, phase III clinical trials to evaluate the impact of lixisenatide (LIXI) on glycaemic variability (GV) vs placebo as add-on to basal insulin.

    In patients with type 2 diabetes receiving basal insulin, low blood glucose index was unchanged with lixisenatide versus placebo.

    In plain wordsThe low blood sugar index did not change with lixisenatide compared with placebo in patients receiving basal insulin.
