STUDY OBJECTIVE
• When oral therapy for type 2 diabetes is ineffective, adding basal insulin improves glycemic control
• However, when glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) remains elevated because of postprandial hyperglycemia, the next therapeutic step is controversial
• We examined the efficacy and safety of lixisenatide in patients with HbA1c still elevated after initiation of insulin glargine

STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS
• This double-blind, parallel-group trial enrolled patients with HbA1c of 7–10% despite oral therapy
• Insulin glargine was added and systematically titrated during a 12-week run-in
• After the run-in period, candidates with fasting glucose ≤7.8 mmol/L and HbA1c 7–9% were randomized to 20 g lixisenatide or placebo for 24 weeks while insulin titration continued
• Primary end point was HbA1c change after randomization

RESULTS
• Randomized population had mean diabetes duration of 9.2 years, BMI 31.8 kg/m2, and daily glargine dosage of 44 units
• HbA1c had decreased during run-in from 8.6 to 7.6%
• Adding lixisenatide further reduced HbA1c by 0.71 vs. 0.40% with placebo
• More participants attained HbA1c <7% with lixisenatide
• Lixisenatide reduced plasma glucose 2 h after a standardized breakfast and had a favorable effect on body weight
• Nausea, vomiting, and symptomatic hypoglycemia <3.3 mmol/L were more common with lixisenatide

CONCLUSIONS
• Adding lixisenatide to insulin glargine improved overall and postprandial hyperglycemia
• Lixisenatide should be considered as an alternative to prandial insulin for patients not reaching HbA1c goals with recently initiated basal insulin
