  1. 01HumanRandomized controlled trialEfficacy outcome

    In adults with type 2 diabetes, IDegLira (insulin degludec plus liraglutide) gave a greater proportion of SMBG values within target ranges than insulin degludec alone.

    In plain wordsIn adults with type 2 diabetes, adding liraglutide to insulin degludec put more blood glucose readings in the target range than insulin degludec alone.

    Summary
    Compared with IDeg, IDegLira resulted in a greater proportion of subjects with SMBG values within target ranges (3.9-9.0 mmol/L) than IDeg for all pre- and postprandial values, and for the full nine-point profile (P < 0.05 for all).

    Summary · context
    We analyzed nine-point self-monitored blood glucose (SMBG) profiles from two randomized trials involving IDegLira in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data from a subset of patients in one of these trials to assess glycemic fluctuation and day-to-day variability.
