NCT ID NCT06671587

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether a combination insulin drug (iGlarLixi) works better than standard insulin (Gla-100) at keeping blood sugar within a healthy range throughout the day. About 678 Chinese adults with type 2 diabetes who are not well controlled on oral medications will use a continuous glucose monitor for 20 weeks. The goal is to see if iGlarLixi helps them spend more time in the target blood sugar zone.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could offer a more effective way to manage blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes, potentially reducing complications.
