Lower risk for severe hypoglycaemia with insulin glargine 300 u/ml vs glargine 100 u/ml in participants with type 1 diabetes: A meta‐analysis of 6‐month phase 3 clinical trials

Danne T, Matsuhisa M, Sussebach C, et al. - Researchers conducted this post‐hoc meta‐analysis to analyze the risk of severe hypoglycaemia (SH) with insulin glargine 300 U/mL (Gla‐300) vs glargine 100 U/mL (Gla‐100) in a pooled population with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) from three randomised, multicentre, 6‐month similarly designed phase 3 trials: EDITION 4, EDITION JP 1, and EDITION JUNIOR. Incidence and time to first occurrence of SH were included endpoints. HbA1c reductions were identical among 629 and 626 candidates randomized to the Gla‐300 and Gla‐100. With Gla‐300 vs Gla‐100, the SH event rates were numerically lower from baseline to Month 6 and from baseline to Week 8. Thus, particularly during the titration period, Gla‐300 showed similar glycaemic control with lower risk of SH vs Gla‐100.
