Interventions
Drug: Insulin degludec and liraglutide (IDegLira)
Registration Number
NCT04666987
Lead Sponsor

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Glycated Haemoglobin (HbA1c)From baseline (V0, month 0) to 6 months after initiation.

Percent (%) point

Baseline is defined as the time of Xultophy® initiation (V0); if the endpoint variable is unavailable at (V0), the most recent value within 3 months prior to Xultophy® initiation will be used.

(This definition of baseline applies to all outcome measures.)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Reason for switching to Xultophy® (precoded question list)At baseline (V0, month 0)

Percentage of patients

HbA1c levels less than 7% (yes/no)At end of study (V3, 18 ±3 months)

Percentage of patients - yes

Number of self-reported nocturnal nonsevere hypoglycaemic episodes (defined based on the patient's perception of whether or not it was night) based on recollectionReported at enrolment (V1 - month 0), intermediate visits (V2.X - 0-17 months) and at end of study (V3, 18 ±3 months). Number of episodes occurring in the 4 weeks prior to study visit

Number of episodes

Change in Xultophy® daily doseFrom baseline (V0, month 0) to end of study (V3, 18 ±3 months)

Dose steps/day

Change in HbA1cFrom baseline (V0, month 0) to end of study (V3, 18 ±3 months)
HbA1c levels less than 7% without hypoglycaemic episodes (yes/no)At end of study (V3, 18 ±3 months)

Percentage of patients - yes

Number of self-reported non-severe hypoglycaemia episodes (defined as an episode with symptoms and/or self monitored blood glucose (SMBG) value less than or equal to 3.9 mmol/L) based on recollectionReported at enrolment (V1 - month 0), intermediate visits (V2.X - 0-17 months) and at end of study (V3, 18 ±3 months). Number of episodes occurring in the 4 weeks prior to study visit

Number of episodes

Treatment simplification (decrease in insulin dose or number of concomitant OADs) (yes/no)At end of study (V3, 18 ±3 months)

Percentage of patients with treatment simplification

Number of self-reported severe hypoglycaemic episodes (Defined as an episode of hypoglycaemia requiring assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon or take other corrective action) based on recollectionReported at enrolment (V1 - month 0), intermediate visits (V2.X - 0-17 months) and at end of study (V3, 18 ±3 months). Number of episodes occurring in the 4 weeks prior to study visit

Number of episodes

Treatment intensification (addition of prandial insulin, increase in total insulin dose or number of concomitant oral antidiabetics (OADs)) (yes/no)At end of study (V3, 18 ±3 months)

Percentage of patients with treatment intensification
