| Abstract | BACKGROUND: Exenatide once weekly (QW) is an extended-release formulation of exenatide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist that reportedly improves glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study was to test the hypothesis that exenatide QW is noninferior to insulin glargine, as measured by change in glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA(1c)) from baseline to end point (week 26 [primary end point]) in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes who have inadequate glycemic control with oral antidiabetes drugs. METHODS: In this open-label, parallel-group, multicenter, noninferiority registration study, patients were randomized (1:1) to add exenatide QW (2 mg) or once-daily insulin glargine (starting dose, 4 U) to their current oral antidiabetes drug treatment. The primary analysis was change in HbA(1c) from baseline to end point, evaluated by using a last-observation-carried-forward ANCOVA model, with a predefined noninferiority margin of 0.4%. Secondary analyses (a priori) included analysis of superiority for between-group comparisons of change in weight and the proportion of patients reaching HbA(1c) target levels of ≤7.0% or ≤6.5%. RESULTS: The baseline characteristics of the exenatide QW (215 patients) and insulin glargine (212 patients) treatment groups were similar: mean (SD) age, 57 (10) years and 56 (11) years, respectively; 66.0% and 69.8% male; mean HbA(1c), 8.5% (0.82%) and 8.5% (0.79%); and mean weight, 69.9 (13.2) kg and 71.0 (13.9) kg. Exenatide QW was statistically noninferior to insulin glargine for the change in HbA(1c) from baseline to end point (least squares mean difference, -0.43% [95% CI, -0.59 to -0.26]; P < 0.001), with the 95% CI upper limit less than the predefined noninferiority margin (0.4%). A significantly greater proportion of patients receiving exenatide QW compared with insulin glargine achieved HbA(1c) target levels of ≤7.0% (89 of 211 [42.2%] vs 44 of 210 [21.0%]) or ≤6.5% (44 of 214 [20.6%] vs 9 of 212 [4.2%]) at end point (P < 0.001 for both). Patient weight was reduced with exenatide QW compared with insulin glargine at end point (least squares mean difference, -2.01 kg [95% CI, -2.46 to -1.56]; P < 0.001). Exenatide QW was well tolerated, with a lower risk of hypoglycemia compared with insulin glargine but a higher incidence of injection-site induration. CONCLUSIONS: Exenatide QW was statistically noninferior to insulin glargine for the change in HbA(1c) from baseline to end point; these results suggest that exenatide QW may provide an effective alternative treatment for Japanese patients who require additional therapy to control their diabetes.

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
