ABSTRACT
In Brief New insulin glargine 300 units/mL (Gla-300) is a formulation of insulin glargine that has a more constant pharmacokinetic profile with a prolonged duration of action. The EDITION clinical trial program showed that the use of Gla-300 leads to glycemic control comparable to that of insulin glargine 100 units/mL in a wide range of populations of people with diabetes. It is associated with comparable to less nocturnal confirmed or severe hypoglycemia and less weight gain, despite requiring a somewhat higher insulin dose than U-100. The distinct pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic and clinical profiles of Gla-300 may benefit a range of people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes.
