Summary

This is a single-center, randomized, open-label, controlled clinical trial to compare the effects of a fixed-ratio combination of insulin glargine 100 U/mL plus lixisenatide (iGlarLixi) versus insulin glargine 100 U/mL (iGlar) on liver fat content in patients with Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM) and Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD). The study includes a 12-week treatment period.

Conditions

  • Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease
  • Diabetes Mellitus Type 2

Interventions

DRUG

iGlarLixi

The iGlarLixi is administered as a subcutaneous injection once daily within 1 hour before breakfast. The starting dose ranges from 0.1 to 0.2 U/kg, with a maximum daily dose of 20 U (equivalent to 20 U iGlar or 20 μg Lixi). Dose titration is guided by fasting self-monitored plasma glucose (SMPG) levels, with the goal of achieving a target range of 4.4-5.6 mmol/L while avoiding hypoglycemia. All participants continue to receive background metformin therapy throughout the treatment period.

DRUG

IGlar U100

The iGlar is administered via subcutaneous injection once daily at a fixed time. The recommended starting dose ranges from 0.1 to 0.2 U/kg. The dose is subsequently titrated to achieve a fasting self-monitored plasma glucose (SMPG) target of 4.4-5.6 mmol/L, with careful attention to avoiding hypoglycemia. Throughout the study, all participants maintain their background metformin therapy
