Overview
This is a randomized, 12-week, open-label, active-controlled, parallel group study that will collect data of real-time continuous glucose monitoring for seven days at baseline and the end of study from adults with Type 2 diabetes mellitus inadequately controlled on oral antidiabetic drugs transiting to their first injectable therapy, iGlarLixi. A total of 40 patients will be recruited in Taipei Veterans General Hospital and randomized to use Mallya or receive standard care. The study is designed to demonstrate the efficacy of Mallya compared to standard care in terms of time in range (glucose level of 70-180 mg/dL), time above range (glucose level ≥180 mg/dL), time below range (glucose level <70 mg/dL), glycemic variability indices, changes in HbA1c and percentage of patients with HbA1c ≤7.0% at endpoint, time to stable dose, and diabetes treatment satisfaction. The result of the current study will provide insights into the utility of Mallya as a treatment monitoring solution to improve glycemic control.
