\"Novo_Nordisk<\/a><\/b><\/span>The\u00a0Endocrinologic and Metabolic Drugs Advisory Committee (EMDAC) of the US\u00a0Food and Drug Administration (FDA) voted 16-0, recommending the approval of Novo Nordisk\u2019s IDegLira for the treatment of adults with type 2 diabetes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

IDegLira is a once-daily, single injection fixed combination of insulin degludec (Tresiba) and liraglutide (Victoza) for the treatment of adults with type 2 diabetes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Based on the data contained in the New Drug Application (NDA) for IDegLira, the FDA asked the panel members to discuss whether Novo Nordisk has provided adequate evidence to establish the efficacy and safety profile of IDegLira for the treatment of adults with type 2 diabetes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The recommendation for approval was based on data from clinical trials of IDegLira, including the DUAL phase 3 clinical trial programme, which involved more than 3,000 adults with type 2 diabetes.\u00a0In addition to the DUAL clinical trial programme, both insulin degludec and liraglutide have been studied extensively in separate clinical trial programmes and the products are commercially available across the globe.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“The unanimous recommendation from the Advisory Committee marks an important step towards making IDegLira available to adults with type 2 diabetes in the US. We look forward to working with the FDA as they complete their review of IDegLira,” said Mads Krogsgaard Thomsen, executive vice president and chief science officer of Novo Nordisk.<\/span><\/p>\n

The NDA for IDegLira was submitted to the FDA in September 2015 under the FDA’s Prescription Drug User Fee Act V (PDUFA V) regulation. In Europe, IDegLira was approved in September 2014 and is marketed under the brand name Xultophy<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
