A Study of Insulin Peglispro in Participants With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Phase 3
Conditions
Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Registration Number
CTRI/2014/09/005054
Lead Sponsor
Eli Lilly and Company
Brief Summary

The main purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of a new basal insulin, insulin peglispro, to insulin glargine in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Both drugs will be given by an injection under the skin. Participants may continue to take oral antihyperglycemic medication (OAM) during the study, as prescribed by their personal physician. The study is expected to last about 12 months for each participant
