    Summary
    Patients treated with 1.5 mg DU weekly versus IG daily for 1 year had a lower risk of ≥40% eGFR decline or ESKD events in the overall study population (5% versus 11%; hazard ratio, 0.45; 95% CI, 0.20 to 0.97; P=0.04).

    Participants with T2DM and CKD categories 3-4 were randomized (1:1:1) to 0.75 or 1.5 mg DU weekly or IG daily as basal therapy, with titrated insulin lispro, for 1 year.

    Summary
    Most events occurred in the subset of patients with macroalbuminuria, where risk of the composite outcome was substantially lower for 1.5 mg DU versus IG (7% versus 22%; hazard ratio, 0.25; 95% CI, 0.10 to 0.68; P=0.006).

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, Dulaglutide (Trulicity) 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 Dulaglutide (Trulicity).
