Abstract

Background: This post hoc analysis assessed continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)-based metrics with basal insulin icodec (icodec) versus once-daily (OD) comparators in insulin-naive and insulin-experienced Japanese individuals from the global, phase 3a ONWARDS 1, 2, and 4 trials. Methods: Double-blinded CGM data were collected from Japanese adults (aged ≥20 years) with type 2 diabetes (T2D) during prespecified assessment periods (weeks 0–4 [ONWARDS 1, 2, and 4], weeks 22–26 [ONWARDS 1, 2, and 4], weeks 48–52 [ONWARDS 1], and weeks 74–78 [ONWARDS 1]). For all assessment periods, percentages of time in range (TIR; sensor glucose [SG] 70–180 mg/dL), time above range (TAR; SG >180 mg/dL and >250 mg/dL), and time below range (TBR; SG
