About The Study: In participants with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled by insulin glargine, addition of oral orforglipron significantly improved glycemic control and body weight, without increasing hypoglycemia risk, compared with placebo. Orforglipron is an oral, nonpeptide glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist.
