Results from this study2

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone2

In this study, Liraglutide was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Liraglutide.

    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.

    Summary
    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]).

    Summary · context
    Projections of lifetime costs and clinical outcomes were made using the IMS CORE Diabetes Model.
    Summary · context
    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.

    In a model of adults with type 2 diabetes failing on basal insulin, IDegLira was associated with mean lifetime cost savings of $17,687 versus liraglutide added to basal insulin.

    Summary
    IDegLira was associated with mean costs savings of $17,687 over patient lifetimes vs liraglutide added to basal insulin, resulting from lower treatment costs and cost savings as a result of complications avoided.
