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.

Active substance

prusogliptin, dapagliflozin, and metformin

What this could lead to

If successful, this triple-drug combination could offer a new, more effective option for managing blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes who don't get enough help from metformin alone.

What could go wrong

This is a phase 3 trial, but results are not yet available. The combination may not prove significantly better than existing treatments, and side effects from multiple drugs could be a concern.
