Durability of Combination of Insulin and GLP-1 Receptor Agonist or SGLT-2 Inhibitors Versus Basal Bolus Insulin Regimen in Type 2 Diabetes (BEYOND)

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2020-10-20

Summary

BEYOND represents an open-label, parallel, three-arm randomized controlled trial, aimed at evaluating the effects of combination therapy of fixed ratio basal insulin/GLP-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) or basal insulin/SGLT-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) on the durability of the glycemic control, as compared with the basal bolus insulin regimen, in people with type 2 diabetes failing to achieve glycemic targets with injective therapy. The potential benefits for participants in the study include the possibility of improving the glyco-metabolic control with drugs that have been evaluated as safe and protective for the heart and the kidneys. The primary outcome of the study is the mean HbA1c change between groups at six months. Participants in the study will be followed for subsequent 18 months in order to evaluate the durability of glycemic control and the chenge of other secondary outcomes.
