Sanofi (SNY) on Wednesday said the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration approved an expanded use for its Soliqua, a
treatment for adults with type 2 diabetes.
Sanofi said the new approval allows Soliqua to be prescribed for
patients whose diabetes is uncontrolled on oral antidiabetic
medicines.
The drug already was approved for use as an add-on to diet and
exercise in adults with type 2 diabetes who are uncontrolled on
long-acting insulin or lixisenatide, the company said.
The approval was based on data from a clinical trial that showed
treatment with Soliqua led to significantly greater reductions in
blood sugar levels compared with insulin glargine and
lixisenatide.
