Abstract
Aim: Premixed insulin (premix) , conventionally administered twice daily, is often used in the US to treat T2D that is suboptimally controlled with BI, particularly for people with consistent eating patterns who require affordable treatment. This analysis evaluated use of once daily iGlarLixi vs. premix on T2D outcomes. Method: This retrospective analysis of the US Optum Clinformatics database compared outcomes in adults (≥18 y) with T2D who previously received BI and newly initiated iGlarLixi or premix. Persistence (primary endpoint) , adherence, healthcare resource utilization (HRU) , costs, any hypoglycemia, and HbA1c change were assessed at 12 months. Results: After propensity score matching, cohorts (n=834 each) were well balanced with respect to age, HbA1c, use of oral agents, BI, and HRU. The primary endpoint was met with persistence being statistically significantly higher for iGlarLixi vs. premix at 12 months. Adherence and HbA1c reduction were similar between groups, whereas hypoglycemia rates, HRU, and costs were numerically lower for iGlarLixi (Table) . Conclusion: In this observational study, once daily iGlarLixi was an effective post-BI treatment with higher treatment persistence than premixed insulin, with similar adherence and HbA1c reduction, and numerically lower hypoglycemia rates, HRU, and costs.
