95-LB: LixilanONE CAN: Randomized Trial Comparing a Daily vs. Weekly Titration Algorithm for Switching from Basal Insulin to iGlarLixi Fixed-Ratio Combination in People with T2DM in Canada

The combination of basal insulin with a GLP-1 RA may be helpful for people with T2DM to achieve and maintain HbA1c targets compared with each used individually. This randomized, 26-week, multicenter Phase 3 study (NCT03767543) in people with T2DM included participants with HbA1c ≥7.5% and ≤10.5%, and on basal insulin for ≥6 months (dose of ≤40 units/day). In addition to background oral glucose lowering medications, all participants received once-daily iGlarLixi, a fixed-ratio combination given within 1 hour prior to their first meal of the day, and were randomized 1:1 with instructions to titrate daily using a 1 unit per day algorithm or the traditional once-weekly titration (2 or 4 units per week) with target FPG of 4.4 to 5.6 mmol/L (79.2 to 100.8 mg/dL). Daily titration of iGlarLixi was superior to a weekly titration for the primary endpoint of change from baseline in HbA1c at week 26. The proportion of participants experiencing ≥1 gastrointestinal event(s) (27.9% daily vs. 27.8% weekly titration) and incidence of hypoglycemic events (84% daily vs. 81% weekly titration) were similar between the two arms. In this randomized trial, a daily titration algorithm for iGlarLixi was demonstrated as a safe alternative to the traditional weekly titration, while allowing patients to reach their maintenance dose earlier.
