Summary

This report describes novel clinical data assessing the pharmacodynamics of insulin glargine/lixisenatide (iGlarLixi) compared with placebo and insulin glargine alone, to determine pharmacokinetics of lixisenatide, and to assess safety of iGlarLixi in Japanese people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In a single-centre, open-label, randomized, placebo-controlled cross-over study, participants received subcutaneous iGlarLixi 5 U/5 μg and 10 U/10 μg, placebo, and 5 U insulin glargine. The primary endpoint was area under the postprandial plasma glucose (PPG) curve (AUC0-2h ). A total of 20 participants completed all study periods. iGlarLixi 5 U/5 μg and 10 U/10 μg reduced mean PPG dose-dependently compared with placebo and insulin glargine 5 U. Both combinations significantly reduced PPG-AUC0-2h dose-dependently compared with placebo (least squares mean difference -7.48 mmol h/L for 5 U/5 μg, -10.75 mmol h/L for 10 U/10 μg; P < 0.0001). iGlarLixi 5 U/5 μg reduced PPG-AUC0-2h significantly compared with insulin glargine 5 U (-0.76 mmol h/L; P < 0.0001). No symptomatic hypoglycaemia occurred during the study. iGlarLixi single subcutaneous injections significantly and dose-dependently reduced PPG compared to placebo or insulin glargine in Japanese participants with T2DM. iGlarLixi was safe and well tolerated, and would be expected to provide the 24-hour plasma glucose-lowering effects of insulin glargine and the postprandial antihyperglycaemic effects of lixisenatide.
