In adults with type 2 diabetes uncontrolled on basal insulin, the median percentage change in triglycerides at week 30 was a 0.3% increase with iGlarLixi versus a 6.5% increase with insulin glargine (P = 0.035; overall).
In plain wordsIn patients with diabetes, triglycerides increased less with iGlarLixi than insulin glargine at week 30.

This analysis investigated the effect of iGlarLixi [insulin glargine U100 (iGlar) and lixisenatide] versus iGlar on lipid profiles in patients with type 2 diabetes uncontrolled on basal insulin.
Data from LixiLan-L were used to estimate changes in fasting lipid levels from baseline to week 30, overall and in patients stratified by achievement of glycaemic targets {2-hour postprandial glucose [≤10, >10 mmoL/L], fasting plasma glucose [≤6.1, >6.1 mmoL/L], HbA1c [≤7, >7% (≤53, >53 mmol/mol)]}.
