INTRODUCTION: Efficacy and safety of the fixed ratio combination of insulin degludec and liraglutide (IDegLira) has been largely documented. However, long-term data are limited. This study aimed at describing persistence in therapy and the effectiveness at 48 months of IDegLira. METHODS: We conducted an observational study based on retrospective chart review. All patients treated with IDegLira during 2018-2022 were included. Data on treatment approaches and clinical outcomes were collected at the first prescription of IDegLira (T0) and after 6, 12, 24, 36, and 48 months...

AIMS: To evaluate and compare the effectiveness of once-daily insulin degludec/liraglutide (IDegLira) to that of once-daily insulin degludec/insulin aspart (IDegAsp) after switching from basal insulin therapy at 6 months by assessing changes in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), body weight, and insulin doses in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 91 patients with T2D with HbA1c levels exceeding 7.0% were included in this study. Adjusted least square mean changes in HbA1c, body weight, and total insulin doses were compared between the IDegLira group and IDegAsp group...

The progressive nature of type 2 diabetes mellitus leads to the need for insulin therapy in a significant proportion of patients. Very often start of insulin therapy in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with weight gain and a significant increase of hypoglycemia's risk. However, innovative options, such as fixed ratio combinations of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) and basal insulin, minimize weight gain and hypoglycemia risks and allow a greater proportion of patients to achieve individual glycemic control goals without compromising safety parameters...

AIM: The study was designed to generate real-world evidence on IDegLira in the Italian clinical practice in two groups of patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), switching to IDegLira either from a basal only (basal group) or basal-bolus insulin regimen (BB group). MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a non-interventional, multicentre, single-cohort, prospective study assessing the long-term glycaemic control in patients with T2D, who switched to IDegLira from a basal insulin ± glucose-lowering medication regimen with or without a bolus insulin component for approximately 18 months, conducted in 28 Italian diabetes centres...

AIM/INTRODUCTION: Insulin glargine U100/lixisenatide and insulin degludec/liraglutide are fixed-ratio combinations containing basal insulin and a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist capable of reducing both fasting and postprandial blood glucose levels with a single formulation. This study aimed to compare the time in range (TIR) and the time below range (TBR) level 1 using professional continuous glucose monitoring and to establish criteria for the differential use of the fixed-ratio combinations...

AIM: The efficacy of titratable fixed-ratio combination therapy by a combination preparation of insulin degludec and liraglutide (IDegLira) in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes, focusing particularly on the change in Fibrosis-4 index (FIB-4), a noninvasive method for the evaluation of liver fibrosis, was investigated. METHODS: As the full analysis set, 113 patients were treated with IDegLira. The patients were categorized into two groups according to the absence (GLP-1RA-naïve group, n = 72) or presence (GLP-1RA-treated group, n = 41) of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) use before starting IDegLira...

BACKGROUND: The efficacy and safety of fixed-ratio combination insulin degludec/liraglutide (IDegLira) for type 2 diabetes (T2DM) were extensively investigated by the global DUAL trials. However, the evidence on its efficacy and safety in T2DM has not been systematically reviewed. METHODS: Randomized controlled trials published in English that compared IDegLira with placebo or GLP-1 agonists or insulin in patients with T2DM were selected up to December 2022. Data on the study characteristics, efficacy and safety outcomes were extracted...

INTRODUCTION: Fixed ratio combination of insulin degludec and liraglutide (IDegLira) represents an option to revise inappropriate therapies in patients with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to assess the pattern of use and 1-year effectiveness of IDegLira. METHODS: A retrospective chart review was performed to assess changes in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) (primary endpoint), fasting blood glucose (FBG), body weight, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and lipid profile following IDegLira initiation...

BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to provide real-world data on the effectiveness and safety of a new fixed-ratio combination, insulin degludec/liraglutide (IDegLira) injection in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS: The primary endpoint was the change in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level 6 months after the introduction of IDegLira. We also examined the rate of achievement of target HbA1c 7% and the individualized HbA1c targets set for each patient...

OBJECTIVES: IDegLira is a novel fixed-ratio soluble combination of insulin degludec and the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) liraglutide approved for type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients. Individual trials have assessed the clinical profile of IDegLira vs different comparators. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of IDegLira for T2D. METHODS: PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched from inception to August 15, 2023...

INTRODUCTION: This study developed a simple algorithm based on clinical results described in medical literature and which allows one to simplify complex insulin regimes with IdegLira to avoid adverse events related to the complexity of some insulin treatments. METHODS: We conducted a systematic review of the literature that allowed us to identify studies that evaluated the clinical result of simplifying complex insulin regimes. The authors reviewed the common factors these simpler regimes had, including the type of patients who used them...

BACKGROUND: Innovative GLP-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA)-based treatment strategies-such as tirzepatide, GLP-1RA plus basal insulin fixed-ratio combinations [FRC], GLP-1RA plus sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors [SGLT-2i] combinations, and high-dose GLP-1RA-have been listed among the most efficacious options for type 2 diabetes management. However, differences in their glucometabolic effects have not been assessed in dedicated head-to-head trials. In the absence of such trials, we aimed to provide a useful comparison among these treatment strategies to guide clinical practice...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: To assess the cost-effectiveness of utilizing IDegLira in comparison to other treatment regimens ( liraglutide and degludec) in managing type 2 diabetes, taking into account the Chinese healthcare system's perspective. METHODS: The clinical data were obtained from the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of the DUAL I and DUAL II evidence studies that took place in China. To estimate the lifetime quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) and direct medical costs of patients receiving different treatment strategies from a long-term perspective, the IQVIA CORE Diabetes Model version 9...

OBJECTIVE: To assess the effectiveness of GLP-1RAs in managing obese T2DM patients. METHODS: This prospective cohort analysis was conducted at Medicell Institute of Diabetes, Karachi, Pakistan; from July 2019 to July 2021. A total of 97 obese individuals >16 years of age with T2DM and IGT were initially enrolled, and 81 patients who showed up for the follow-up were prescribed one of the three GLP-1RAs available in Pakistan. RESULTS: Out of 81 patients who showed up for the follow-up visit, 43 had received Liraglutide, 25 were taking Dulaglutide, and 13 had been prescribed IDegLira supplemented with oral hypoglycemic medications ± insulin...

OBJECTIVE: In participants with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and HbA1c >9.0-10.0%, guidelines recommend treatment with basal-bolus insulin. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: This randomized trial compared the efficacy and safety of insulin degludec and liraglutide (IDegLira) and basal-bolus among participants with high HbA1c ≥9.0-15.0%, previously treated with 2 or 3 oral agents and/or basal insulin, allocated (1:1) to basal-bolus (n = 73) or IDegLira (n = 72). The primary end point was noninferiority (0...

OBJECTIVES: Achieving glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes is important as it reduces the risk of complications and their related clinical and economic burden. Yet therapeutic inertia due to the fear of hypoglycemia, complex treatment regimens, weight gain, and therapy costs, among others, limits achieving glycemic control. This analysis aims to assess the short-term cost of control (cost per patient achieving treatment goals) with insulin degludec/liraglutide (IDegLira) versus other forms of basal insulin intensification (insulin glargine titration, basal-bolus therapy, and the combination of insulin glargine and lixisenatide: IGlarLixi) in type 2 diabetes patients not controlled with basal insulin in the Mexican private setting...

INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of switching from basal bolus insulin treatment (BBIT) to a fixed combination of insulin degludec and liraglutide (IDegLira) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who had preserved insulin secretion but inadequate glucose control. The study also aimed to assess the feasibility of implementing this therapeutic approach in common clinical practice settings. METHODS: This was a non-randomized, open-label, multicenter, prospective, single-arm study involving 234 patients with T2DM who were receiving BBIT...

UNLABELLED: Fixed-ratio combination injection therapy (FRC) is a fixed-ratio mixture containing basal insulin and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) in a single injection for the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes. The two types of FRC products contain different concentrations and mixing ratios of basal insulin and GLP-1 RA. Both products demonstrated satisfactory blood glucose control throughout the day, with less hypoglycemia and weight gain. However, few studies have examined the differences in the actions of the two formulations...
