A Randomized, Open-Label, Parallel-Arm Study Comparing the Effect of Once-Weekly Dulaglutide With Once-Daily Liraglutide in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes (AWARD-6: Assessment of Weekly AdministRation of LY2189265 in Diabetes-6)
Abstract
The purpose of the study is to assess the benefits and risks of once-weekly dulaglutide compared to once-daily liraglutide in participants with type 2 diabetes who have inadequate glycemic control on metformin.
Conditions: Type 2 Diabetes.
Primary outcome: Change From Baseline to 26 Weeks Endpoint in Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c).
Enrollment: 599 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 599 participants or records.
