Beneficial effects of once-daily lixisenatide on overall and postprandial glycemic levels without significant excess of hypoglycemia in Type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on a sulfonylurea with or without metformin (GetGoal-S)
AimsTo assess efficacy and safety of lixisenatide once-daily versus placebo in Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients inadequately controlled on sulfonylurea (SU)±metformin.MethodsIn this randomized, double-blind, two-arm, parallel-group, multicenter study, patients received lixisenatide 20μg once-daily or placebo for 24 weeks in a stepwise dose increase on top of SUs±metformin. Primary outcome was change in HbA1c from baseline to Week 24.ResultsLixisenatide provided a significant reduction in HbA1c at Week 24 versus placebo (LS mean: −0.85% vs. −0.10%; p
