In adults with type 2 diabetes, baseline HbA1c of 8% or more and metformin plus a second oral drug, HbA1c fell by 1.9% (20 mmol/mol) with iGlarLixi versus 1.6% (17 mmol/mol) with glargine.
In plain wordsIn adults with diabetes and HbA1c of 8% or more, adding lixisenatide reduced HbA1c more than glargine alone.

Source sentences
iGlarLixi demonstrated greater mean reductions from baseline in HbA1c and 2-hour postprandial glucose (PPG) compared with iGlar or Lixi (HbA1c -1.9% vs. -1.6% or -1.0% [-20 vs. -17 or -10 mmol/mol; 2-hour PPG -7.2 vs. -4.6 or -5.5 mmol/L).

The LixiLan-O study (NCT02058147) compared iGlarLixi with iGlar or Lixi in adults with T2D inadequately controlled on metformin ± a second oral antidiabetes drug (OAD).
This exploratory analysis evaluated the LixiLan-O subgroup of participants with baseline HbA1c levels of ≥8% (≥64 mmol/mol) who were receiving metformin plus a second OAD at screening.
