Highlights of EASD presentations by Sanofi and Novo Nordisk
The 52nd Annual Meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) is now taking place in Munich, Germany, and included some notable new data presentations.
Among these, French pharma major Sanofi (Euronext: SAN) announced today that adults with type 2 diabetes treated with Toujeo (insulin glargine 300 Units/mL) experienced a consistently lower rate of confirmed or severe hypoglycemia both at night and at any time of the day compared with those treated with Lantus (insulin glargine 100 Units/mL), at all levels of HbA1c (average blood glucose over the previous three months) achieved at month 6.
Sanofi is conducting three large, randomized clinical trials - ACHIEVE, REACH and REGAIN CONTROL - evaluating in real-life conditions the effect of Toujeo in people with type 2 diabetes. These trials will provide an important evaluation of the effectiveness of Toujeo's disease-management strategy that could be particularly relevant to healthcare professionals, diabetes educators and payers.
