Each item is assessed on a 5-point scale, with higher scores indicating better health status. All items were summed to obtain a total raw score, which was transformed to a scale of 0 to 100 to obtain a total score. The total score range is 0-100, with a higher total score indicating better overall health and well-being, while a lower total score indicates worse health or well-being.

Each domain is scored individually, and information from these 8 domains is further aggregated into 2 health component summary scores, the Physical Component Summary and Mental Component Summary. Scoring of each domain and both summary scores are norm based and presented in the form of T-scores, with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. Higher scores indicate better levels of function and/or better health. Range cannot be specified in norm-based scores.

It includes 5 dimensions of health (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression) that are assessed at 5 levels of response (no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems, and unable to perform or extreme problems). The scores in the 5 dimensions were summarized into a health state index score. A single health-state index value was derived, which ranges from less than 0 (health state equivalent to death, negative values are valued as worse than death) to 1 (perfect health). The EQ VAS rates the participants' perceived health from 0 (the worst imaginable health) to 100 (the best imaginable health). This score provides a composite picture of the respondent's health status.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Insulin Efsitora Alfa and Insulin Degludec in people with Diabetes and Type 2 Diabetes, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 113 sites in 11 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 15 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 May 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 113 sites in United States, China, Japan, Germany, Brazil and 6 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 May 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change From Baseline in HbA1c at Week 52 [Noninferiority Analysis] (time frame: Baseline, Week 52). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05362058, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 May 2025.
