A Research Study, Looking at How Xultophy® Works in People With Type 2 Diabetes in Local Clinical Practice in United Arab Emirates (INTENSIFY)

September 21, 2021 updated by: Novo Nordisk A/S

A Multicenter Prospective Non-interventional Study Investigating the Treatment Effect of Xultophy® Intensification in a Real World Population With Type 2 Diabetes in United Arab Emirates

The purpose of the study is to collect information on how Xultophy® works in patients with type 2 diabetes. The participants will get Xultophy® as prescribed to them by the study doctor. The study will last for about 26-34 weeks. The participants will be asked questions about their health and their diabetes treatment as part of their normal study doctor's appointment.

  • Available and documented glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) value less than or equal to 12 weeks prior to initiation of Xultophy® treatment.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients as specified in the Xultophy® local label.
  • Previous participation in this study. Participation is defined as having given informed consent in this study.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM)
Patients with T2DM treated with any basal insulin or glucagon-Like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) (including once weekly GLP-1 RA) with/without oral antidiabetic drug (OAD) treatment, and with inadequate glycaemic control, for whom the physician had decided to intensify their treatment with Xultophy®
Patients will be treated with Insulin degludec/liraglutide (Xultophy®) at the treating physician's discretion and independent from the decision to include the patient in the study.
