Efficacy and safety of the once-daily GLP-1 receptor agonist lixisenatide in monotherapy: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in patients with type 2 diabetes (GetGoal-Mono).

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To assess efficacy and safety of lixisenatide monotherapy in type 2 diabetes.

Research design and methods

Randomized, double-blind, 12-week study of 361 patients not on glucose-lowering therapy (HbA(1c) 7-10%) allocated to one of four once-daily subcutaneous dose increase regimens: lixisenatide 2-step (10 μg for 1 week, 15 μg for 1 week, and then 20 μg; n = 120), lixisenatide 1-step (10 μg for 2 weeks and then 20 μg; n = 119), placebo 2-step (n = 61), or placebo 1-step (n = 61) (placebo groups were combined for analyses). Primary end point was HbA(1c) change from baseline to week 12.

Results

Once-daily lixisenatide significantly improved HbA(1c) (mean baseline 8.0%) in both groups (least squares mean change vs. placebo: -0.54% for 2-step, -0.66% for 1-step; P < 0.0001). Significantly more lixisenatide patients achieved HbA(1c) <7.0% (52.2% 2-step, 46.5% 1-step) and ≤ 6.5% (31.9% 2-step, 25.4% 1-step) versus placebo (26.8% and 12.5%, respectively; P < 0.01). Lixisenatide led to marked significant improvements of 2-h postprandial glucose levels and blood glucose excursions measured during a standardized breakfast test. A significant decrease in fasting plasma glucose was observed in both lixisenatide groups versus placebo. Mean decreases in body weight (∼2 kg) were observed in all groups. The most common adverse events were gastrointestinal-nausea was the most frequent (lixisenatide 23% overall, placebo 4.1%). Symptomatic hypoglycemia occurred in 1.7% of lixisenatide and 1.6% of placebo patients, with no severe episodes. Safety/tolerability was similar for the two dose regimens.

Conclusions

Once-daily lixisenatide monotherapy significantly improved glycemic control with a pronounced postprandial effect (75% reduction in glucose excursion) and was safe and well tolerated in type 2 diabetes.

Project description:ObjectiveTo examine the efficacy and safety of lixisenatide (20 μg once daily, administered before the morning or evening meal) as add-on therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes insufficiently controlled with metformin alone.Research design and methodsThis was a 24-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in 680 patients with inadequately controlled type 2 diabetes (HbA1c 7-10% [53-86 mmol/mol]). Patients were randomized to lixisenatide morning (n = 255), lixisenatide evening (n = 255), placebo morning (n = 85), or placebo evening (n = 85) injections.ResultsLixisenatide morning injection significantly reduced mean HbA1c versus combined placebo (mean change -0.9% [9.8 mmol/mol] vs. -0.4% [4.4 mmol/mol]; least squares [LS] mean difference vs. placebo -0.5% [5.5 mmol/mol], P < 0.0001). HbA1c was significantly reduced by lixisenatide evening injection (mean change -0.8% [8.7 mmol/mol] vs. -0.4% [4.4 mmol/mol]; LS mean difference -0.4% [4.4 mmol/mol], P < 0.0001). Lixisenatide morning injection significantly reduced 2-h postprandial glucose versus morning placebo (mean change -5.9 vs. -1.4 mmol/L; LS mean difference -4.5 mmol/L, P < 0.0001). LS mean difference in fasting plasma glucose was significant in both morning (-0.9 mmol/L, P < 0.0001) and evening (-0.6 mmol/L, P = 0.0046) groups versus placebo. Mean body weight decreased to a similar extent in all groups. Rates of adverse events were 69.4% in both lixisenatide groups and 60.0% in the placebo group. Rates for nausea and vomiting were 22.7 and 9.4% for lixisenatide morning and 21.2 and 13.3% for lixisenatide evening versus 7.6 and 2.9% for placebo, respectively. Symptomatic hypoglycemia occurred in 6, 13, and 1 patient for lixisenatide morning, evening, and placebo, respectively, with no severe episodes.ConclusionsIn patients with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on metformin, lixisenatide 20 μg once daily administered in the morning or evening significantly improved glycemic control, with a pronounced postprandial effect, and was well tolerated.

Project description:IntroductionWe assessed the effect of the prandial state on the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of single and multiple doses of orforglipron (LY3502970), an oral, non-peptide glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA), in two studies (A and B).MethodsStudy A and study B were phase 1, randomized, crossover studies in healthy adults aged 18-65 years and 21-70 years, respectively. Participants received single (3 mg, study A) or multiple (16 mg, study B) oral doses of orforglipron under fasted and fed conditions. Blood samples were collected pre- and postdose to assess area under the concentration-time curve (AUC), maximum observed drug concentration (Cmax), time of Cmax (tmax), and half-life (t1/2) associated with terminal rate constant. AUC and Cmax were analyzed using a linear mixed-effects model. Treatment differences were presented as ratios of geometric least squares means (GLSM). Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), adverse events of special interest, and serious adverse events were assessed.ResultsStudy A included 12 participants (mean age 45.0 years; male 66.7%); study B included 34 participants (mean age 42.8 years; male 88.2%). GLSM AUC and Cmax were lower by 23.7% and 23.2% in study A, and 17.6% and 20.9% in study B, in the fed versus fasted states, respectively. In both studies, t1/2 and median tmax were comparable between fed and fasted states. The majority of TEAEs in both studies were gastrointestinal tract-related conditions. No serious adverse events or deaths were reported in either study.ConclusionThe observed pharmacokinetic differences due to the prandial state are unlikely to contribute to clinically meaningful differences in the efficacy of orforglipron. The safety profile was consistent with the known profiles of other GLP-1 RAs. Given the absence of prandial restrictions, orforglipron may emerge as a convenient oral treatment option for patients with type 2 diabetes or obesity.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov identifiers, NCT03929744 and NCT05110794.
