GLP-1 Receptor Agonist Lixisenatide in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes for Glycemic Control and Safety Evaluation in Monotherapy (GETGOAL-MONO Japan LTS)

Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the benefits and risks of lixisenatide (AVE0010) used as 2-step initiation regimen and 1-step initiation regimen in Japan, over a period of 24 weeks of treatment, followed by an extension up to Week 76. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of lixisenatide once daily treatment in monotherapy at Week 24 by a descriptive comparison of a 1-step initiation and a 2-step initiation regimen in patients with type 2 diabetes in Japan. The secondary objectives are to assess the overall safety of lixisenatide once daily treatment in monotherapy at Week 52 and Week 76; to assess the effects of lixisenatide on glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) reduction at Week 52 and Week 76, body weight, and fasting plasma glucose (FPG); to assess pharmacokinetics (PK) and anti-lixisenatide antibody development.
