Registry summary

Text and fields below are the sponsor's entries at ClinicalTrials.gov, shown as posted.

The purpose of this study is to determine the long-term safety of the study intervention orforglipron as a monotherapy or in combination with oral antihyperglycemic medication. This study includes 3 periods as follows: * screening and lead-in period: up to 4 weeks * treatment period: 52 weeks, including 20 weeks of dose escalation, and * safety follow-up period: 2 weeks.

Interventions

  • OrforglipronDrug

Arms3

  • Experimental

    3 mg Orforglipron

    Participants received once-daily oral orforglipron for 52 weeks. Treatment began with a 1-mg loading dose for the first 4 weeks, followed by the maintenance dose of 3 mg for the remainder of the duration.

  • Experimental

    12 mg Orforglipron

    Participants received once-daily oral orforglipron for 52 weeks. Treatment began with a 1-mg loading dose for the first 4 weeks, followed by dose escalations every 4 weeks to reach the maintenance dose of 12 mg at week 12, which was then continued for the remainder of the duration.

  • Experimental

    36 mg Orforglipron

    Participants received once-daily oral orforglipron for 52 weeks. Treatment began with a 1-mg loading dose for the first 4 weeks, followed by dose escalations every 4 weeks to reach the maintenance dose of 36 mg at week 20, which was then continued for the remainder of the duration.

Primary outcomes1

Outcomes the sponsor listed as primary.

  1. Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    Time frame · Baseline to Week 54

    Registry description

    A TEAE was defined as any adverse event that began on or after the first dose of study drug or began before the first dose of study drug and worsened on or after the first dose of study drug.

Secondary outcomes(12)
  1. Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)

    Time frame · Baseline, Week 52

    Registry description

    HbA1c is the glycosylated fraction of hemoglobin A. It is measured to identify average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time.

  2. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved HbA1c <7.0%

    Time frame · Week 52

    Registry description

    HbA1c is the glycosylated fraction of hemoglobin A. It is measured to identify average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time. The reported values represent model-based estimates. The Mean (SE) is an estimated values from a logistic regression using imputed data by multiple imputation, with percentages derived by combining proportion of participants achieving target in imputed data sets using Rubin's rule.

  3. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved HbA1c ≤6.5%

    Time frame · Week 52

    Registry description

    HbA1c is the glycosylated fraction of hemoglobin A. It is measured to identify average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time. The reported values represent model-based estimates. The Mean (SE) is an estimated values from a logistic regression using imputed data by multiple imputation, with percentages derived by combining proportion of participants achieving target in imputed data sets using Rubin's rule.

  4. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved HbA1c <5.7%

    Time frame · Week 52

    Registry description

    HbA1c is the glycosylated fraction of hemoglobin A. It is measured to identify average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time.

  5. Change From Baseline in Fasting Serum Glucose

    Time frame · Baseline, Week 52

  6. Change From Baseline in Body Weight

    Time frame · Baseline, Week 52

  7. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Weight Loss of ≥5% From Baseline

    Time frame · Week 52

    Registry description

    The reported values represent model-based estimates. The Mean (SE) is an estimated values from a logistic regression using imputed data by multiple imputation, with percentages derived by combining proportion of participants achieving target in imputed data sets using Rubin's rule.

  8. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Weight Loss of ≥10% From Baseline

    Time frame · Week 52

    Registry description

    The reported values represent model-based estimates. The Mean (SE) is an estimated values from a logistic regression using imputed data by multiple imputation, with percentages derived by combining proportion of participants achieving target in imputed data sets using Rubin's rule.

  9. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Weight Loss of ≥15% From Baseline

    Time frame · Week 52

    Registry description

    The reported values represent model-based estimates. The Mean (SE) is an estimated values from a logistic regression using imputed data by multiple imputation, with percentages derived by combining proportion of participants achieving target in imputed data sets using Rubin's rule.

  10. Change From Baseline in Waist Circumference

    Time frame · Baseline, Week 52

  11. Change From Baseline in Body Mass Index (BMI)

    Time frame · Baseline, Week 52

  12. Change From Baseline in Daily Average 7-Point Self-Monitored Blood Glucose (SMBG)

    Time frame · Baseline, Week 52

    Registry description

    SMBG is measured using a glucometer. The SMBG profiles will consist of the following 7-point measurements obtained on a single day: * before 3 main meals, * approximately 2 hours after 3 main meals, and * at bedtime Daily average glucose was calculated as the mean of 7 time point specific averages obtained from up to 2 non-consecutive SMBG profiles within week 52.
