Efficacy and safety of switching to insulin glargine 300 U/mL in people with type 2 diabetes uncontrolled on basal insulin in China: A post hoc subpopulation analysis of the INITIATION study.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of insulin glargine 300 U/mL (Gla-300) in people with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes (T2D) switching from another basal insulin (BI).

Materials and methods

INITIATION was an interventional, single-arm, phase IV study conducted in China. In this post hoc subpopulation analysis, the efficacy and safety of switching to Gla-300 was investigated in individuals with uncontrolled T2D (HbA1c 7.5%-11.0% [58-97 mmol/mol]) with previous BI. The primary endpoint was HbA1c change at week 24. Other measures of glycaemia, hypoglycaemia, insulin dose and weight change were assessed.

Results

Three hundred and two participants switched to Gla-300 from another BI, including 232 from insulin glargine 100 U/mL (Gla-100) and 55 from insulin degludec (
