Effect of Lixisenatide on Postprandial Plasma Glucose Compared to Sitagliptin in Combination With Insulin Glargine

October 4, 2016 updated by: Sanofi

A Randomized, Multicenter, Open-Label, Parallel-Group, 28 Days Phase IV Study Comparing The Postprandial Plasma Glucose Profile of Lixisenatide With That of Sitagliptin Add-On to Insulin Glargine in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Primary Objective:

To demonstrate significant reduction in postprandial plasma glucose (ΔAUC0:30-4:30h) after a standardized breakfast from baseline to Day 29.

Secondary Objectives:

To demonstrate:

  • Changes from baseline to Day 29 in maximum postprandial plasma glucose excursion, C-peptide and glucagon levels after a standardized breakfast
  • Delaying gastric emptying (13C-acetic acid breath test)
  • Safety and tolerability

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The duration per patient could be minimum of 38 to 47 days depending on screening visit and post-treatment observation allowances.

13C-acetic acid breath test will be conducted only in investigational site which can be implemented (about 40 patients).
