EXCEED 203, a 12-week study of efpeglenatide (0.3, 1, 2, 3, or 4 mg QW) compared with placebo (PBO) and referenced to open-label liraglutide 1.8 mg in uncontrolled T2D (naïve/metformin monotherapy), found significantly improved HbA1c for all doses of efpeglenatide ≥1 mg, and reductions in body weight for efpeglenatide 3 and 4 mg.
