New triple therapy aims to tame type 2 diabetes
NCT ID NCT07026968
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This phase 3 trial tests whether adding two new drugs—prusogliptin and dapagliflozin—to standard metformin can improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes. About 815 participants who are not well-controlled on metformin alone will receive either the triple combination or a placebo plus metformin. The main goal is to see if the combo lowers HbA1c (a key blood sugar measure) more effectively after 24 weeks.
