6.1 Clinical Trials Experience
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
Pool of Placebo-Controlled Trials eva luating STEGLATRO 5 and 15 mg
The data in Table 1 are derived from a pool of three 26-week, placebo-controlled trials. STEGLATRO was used as monotherapy in one trial and as add-on therapy in two trials [see Clinical Studies (14)]. These data reflect exposure of 1,029 patients to STEGLATRO with a mean exposure duration of approximately 25 weeks. Patients received STEGLATRO 5 mg (N=519), STEGLATRO 15 mg (N=510), or placebo (N=515) once daily. The mean age of the population was 57 years and 2% were older than 75 years of age. Fifty-three percent (53%) of the population was male and 73% were Caucasian, 15% were Asian, and 7% were Black or African American. At baseline the population had diabetes for an average of 7.5 years, had a mean HbA1c of 8.1%, and 19.4% had established microvascular complications of diabetes. Baseline renal function (mean eGFR 88.9 mL/min/1.73 m2) was normal or mildly impaired in 97% of patients and moderately impaired in 3% of patients.
Table 1 shows common adverse reactions associated with the use of STEGLATRO. These adverse reactions were not present at baseline, occurred more commonly on STEGLATRO than on placebo, and occurred in at least 2% of patients treated with either STEGLATRO 5 mg or STEGLATRO 15 mg.
