Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Type 2 Diabetes
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT04867785
Lead Sponsor
Eli Lilly and Company
Brief Summary

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of LY3437943 in participants with type 2 diabetes (T2D) who failed to achieve adequate glycemic control on diet and exercise alone or on a stable dose of metformin. This study will last about 43 weeks.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)Baseline, 24 Weeks

Change in HbA1c (%) from baseline in LY3437943 relative to placebo. HbA1c is the glycosylated fraction of hemoglobin A. HbA1c is measured primarily to identify average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time. Least squares (LS) mean was calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) for post-baseline measures: Variable = Treatment\*Time + Strata\*Time + Baseline\*Time.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Body WeightBaseline, 36 Weeks

Change in body weight from baseline in LY3437943 relative to placebo and dulaglutide. LSMean was calculated using MMRM for post-baseline measures: Variable = Treatment\*Time + Baseline HbA1c Group (\<=8.5%, \>8.5%)\*Time + Baseline BMI Group (\<30kg/m2, \>=30kg/m2)\*Time + Baseline\*Time.

Percentage of Participant Reaching HbA1c <7.0%Week 36

Percentage of participants reaching HbA1c \<7.0% in LY3437943 relative to placebo and dulaglutide. Estimated percentage was determined by logistic regression model with an intercept term, treatment group, baseline BMI stratum \[\<30 kg/m2, ≥30 kg/m2\] as fixed effects, and baseline HbA1c value as a covariate.

Change From Baseline in Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG)Baseline, 36 Weeks

Change in FBG from baseline in LY3437943 relative to placebo and dulaglutide. LSMean was calculated using MMRM for post-baseline measures: Variable = Treatment\*Time + Baseline HbA1c Group (\<=8.5%, \>8.5%)\*Time + Baseline BMI Group (\<30kg/m2, \>=30kg/m2)\*Time + Baseline\*Time.

Change From Baseline in HbA1cBaseline, 36 Weeks

Change in HbA1c (%) from baseline in LY3437943 relative to placebo and dulaglutide. LSMean was calculated using MMRM for post-baseline measures: Variable = Treatment\*Time + Baseline HbA1c Group (\<=8.5%, \>8.5%)\*Time + Baseline Body Mass Index (BMI) Group (\<30 kilograms/square meter (kg/m2), \>=30 kg/m2)\*Time + Baseline\*Time.

Percentage of Participants Reaching HbA1c <7.0%Week 24

Percentage of participants reaching HbA1c \<7.0% in LY3437943 relative to placebo and dulaglutide. Estimated percentage was determined by logistic regression model with an intercept term, treatment group, baseline BMI stratum \[\<30 kg/m2, ≥30 kg/m2\] as fixed effects, and baseline HbA1c value as a covariate.

Population PK: Average Steady-State Plasma Concentration (Cav,ss) of LY3437943Predose: Week 0, 1, 4, 12, 24, 30; Postdose: Week 2, 8, 16, 20, 36

The average steady-state plasma concentration of LY3437943 was evaluated using sparse sampling methodology/Population PK (PopPK) modeling.
