Brief Summary

This study is being done to meet the regulatory requirements ofconducting a Phase 4 clinical trial for Gla-300 with more than 200 Indianparticipants. This India-specific study will evaluate the safety and efficacyof insulin glargine 300 U/mL in insulin naïve participants with T2D.

At present, the most widely used basal insulin is insulin glargine 100U/ml (Gla-100), which has a well-established mode of action, and efficacy and safetyprofile. However, to improve current treatment options, a basal insulinconferring an even lower risk of hypoglycemia would be desirable.

New insulin glargine 300 U/ml (Gla-300) has been developed to optimizeglycemic control, while minimizing the risk of hypoglycemia. After subcutaneous(s.c.) injection, the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic action profiles ofGla-300 were more constant and prolonged compared with those of Gla-100, as a result of a more gradualand extended release of glargine from the s.c. depot. This translates intocontinued blood glucose control beyond 24 h.
