Measured: Baseline, Week 24
Percentage of Participants Reaching HbA1c <7% at Week 24
Blood samples were collected at indicated timepoints for analysis of HbA1c. Participants without Week 24 HbA1c value were considered as non-responders. Percentages are rounded off to the tenth decimal place.
Measured: Week 24
Percentage of Participants Reaching HbA1c <7% With no Body Weight Gain at Week 24
Blood samples were collected at indicated timepoints for analysis of HbA1c. Participants without Week 24 HbA1c or body weight value were considered as non-responders. Percentages are rounded off to the tenth decimal place.
Measured: Week 24
Percentage of Participants Reaching HbA1c <7% With no Body Weight Gain at Week 24 and no Hypoglycemia During 24-Week Treatment Period
Blood samples were collected at indicated timepoints for analysis of HbA1c. Participants without Week 24 HbA1c or body weight value were considered as non-responders. During the study, participants were instructed to document the presence of hypoglycemic episodes in their study diary. Hypoglycemia was characterized as per American Diabetes Association (ADA) 2021 recommendations.
- ADA Level 1 hypoglycemia: A measurable glucose concentration <70 milligram/deciliter (mg/dL) (3.9 millimoles/liter [mmol/L]) but >=54 mg/dL (3.0 mmol/L).
- ADA Level 2 hypoglycemia: Blood glucose concentration <54 mg/dL [3.0 mmol/L]; the threshold at which neuroglycopenic symptoms begin to occur and requires immediate action to resolve the hypoglycemic event.
- ADA Level 3 hypoglycemia: A severe event characterized by altered mental and/or physical functioning that requires assistance from another person for recovery.
Percentages are rounded off to the tenth decimal place.
Measured: Baseline up to Week 24
Change in Fasting Plasma Glucose From Baseline to Week 24
Blood samples were collected at fasting state (no food or drinks [except water] for at least 8 hours) at indicated timepoints. Baseline was defined as the last available pre-dose assessment (on or before Day 1).
Measured: Baseline, Week 24
Change in Average 7-Point Self-Monitored Plasma Glucose (SMPG) Profile From Baseline to Week 24
Participants were provided with a glucometer, corresponding supplies, a leaflet, and with diaries in order to perform self-measurement of plasma glucose and its recording and were trained on how to use the glucometer. The 7-point SMPG profile was measured at the following 7-points: pre-prandial (before starting a meal) and 2 hours postprandial each for breakfast, lunch, dinner and at bedtime. Two hours postprandial (breakfast, lunch and dinner) was defined as 2 hours after the start of the meal. The participants performed 7-point SMPG profile measurement over a single 24-hour period on 2 different days in the week. Baseline was defined as the last available pre-dose assessment (on or before Day 1).
Measured: Baseline, Week 24
Percentage of Participants Reaching HbA1c <7% at Week 24 With no Hypoglycemia During 24-Week Treatment Period
Blood samples were collected at indicated timepoints for analysis of HbA1c. Participants without Week 24 HbA1c value were considered as non-responders. Hypoglycemia was characterized as per ADA 2021 recommendations.
- ADA Level 1 hypoglycemia: A measurable glucose concentration <70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L) but >=54 mg/dL (3.0 mmol/L).
- ADA Level 2 hypoglycemia: Blood glucose concentration <54mg/dL [3.0 mmol/L]; the threshold at which neuroglycopenic symptoms begin to occur and requires immediate action to resolve the hypoglycemic event.
- ADA Level 3 hypoglycemia: A severe event characterized by altered mental and/or physical functioning that requires assistance from another person for recovery.
Percentages are rounded off to the tenth decimal place.
Measured: Baseline up to Week 24
Percentage of Participants Reaching HbA1c <7% at Week 24 With no Clinically Relevant Hypoglycemia During 24-Week Treatment Period
Blood samples were collected at indicated timepoints for analysis of HbA1c. Participants without Week 24 HbA1c value were considered as non-responders. Participants who reached the specified target of HbA1c without any clinically significant symptoms of hypoglycemia as defined in ADA Levels 2 or 3 are reported. Percentages are rounded off to the tenth decimal place.
Measured: Baseline up to Week 24
Total Daily Insulin Dose at Week 24
Total daily insulin dose was defined as the sum of the insulin dose from study treatment and non-study treatment (e.g., rescue therapy). It was the average of the last 3 available insulin doses recorded in the electronic case report form in the week before visit.
Measured: Week 24
Percentage of Participants Who Required Rescue Therapy During the 24-Week Treatment Period
Routine HbA1c value was used to determine the requirement of rescue medication. Threshold value was HbA1c >8% at Week 12 or later on despite appropriate corrective actions. Percentages are rounded off to the tenth decimal place.
Measured: Baseline up to Week 24
Change in Fasting C-Peptide From Baseline to Week 24
Blood samples were collected at fasting state (no food or drinks [except water] for at least 8 hours) at indicated timepoints. Baseline was defined as the last available pre-dose assessment (on or before Day 1).
Measured: Baseline, Week 24
Number of Participants With Any Hypoglycemia Event During On-Treatment Period
During the study, participants were instructed to document the presence of hypoglycemic episodes in their study diary. Number of participants who met ADA definition of hypoglycemia during the treatment period are reported.
- ADA Level 1 hypoglycemia: A measurable glucose concentration <70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L) but >=54 mg/dL (3.0 mmol/L).

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Insulin glargine/Lixisenatide, IDegAsp and Metformin in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Sanofi at 60 sites in China.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 29 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Sep 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 60 sites in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 Oct 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Change in HbA1c From Baseline to Week 24: Non-Inferiority Analysis (time frame: Baseline, Week 24). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Sep 2025.
