In a model of adults with type 2 diabetes failing on basal insulin, IDegLira gave small gains in quality-adjusted life expectancy versus liraglutide added to basal insulin (8.94 vs 8.91 QALYs).
In plain wordsIn a computer model, the insulin degludec and liraglutide combination gave slightly more quality-adjusted life years than liraglutide added to basal insulin.

IDegLira was associated with small improvements in quality-adjusted life expectancy compared with liraglutide added to basal insulin (8.94 vs 8.91 discounted quality-adjusted life years [QALYs]).
2 context sentences(design, population, supporting numbers)
Projections of lifetime costs and clinical outcomes were made using the IMS CORE Diabetes Model.
Treatment effect data for patients receiving IDegLira and liraglutide added to basal insulin were modeled based on the outcomes of a published indirect comparison, as no head-to-head clinical trial data is currently available.
In this study, Liraglutide was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Liraglutide.
