108-LB: Ultrarapid Lispro (URLi) Improved Postprandial Glucose (PPG) Excursion vs. Humalog (HL) in Predominantly Chinese Adult Patients with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D)

URLi is a novel formulation of insulin lispro developed to better match physiological insulin response to a meal that demonstrates faster absorption and onset of action than HL. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of URLi vs. HL in predominantly Chinese adult patients with T2D. It was a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind study, in which patients with T2D randomly received URLi (395 patients) or HL (200 patients) plus glargine or degludec for 26 weeks. The primary endpoint was the treatment difference in the change in HbA1c from baseline to Week 26 (noninferiority margin 0.4%) . The treatment differences in the 1- and 2-hour PPG excursions at Week 26 were assessed as the multiplicity-adjusted endpoints. URLi achieved noninferiority to HL on change in HbA1c with least squares mean difference (95% confidence interval) of 0.07% (-0.07, 0.21) . URLi was superior to HL in controlling 1-hour (4.8 mmol/L vs. 5.6 mmol/L, P Disclosure J. Zhou: n/a. S. Chen: None. J. Cheng: Employee; Eli Lilly and Company. L.
