BEIJING and BRIDGEWATER, N.J., Oct. 14 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Gan & Lee Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Gan & Lee) 
(Shanghai: 603087.SH), is pleased to announce the completion of two randomized, 
multicenter, phase 3 studies that compare proposed biosimilar Gan & Lee insulin 
glargine (GL-GLA) to a reference biologic. The two studies were conducted 
separately in subjects with type 1 (n=576) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (n=567).

The primary purpose of these 26-week studies was to assess the equivalence in 
treatment-induced (TI) immunogenicity between GL-GLA and the reference biologic 
using pre-specified similarity margins. The secondary objectives were to assess 
the equivalence in efficacy and evaluate safety. Both studies concluded there 
was equivalent TI immunogenicity. Efficacy estimates between groups were within 
pre-specified similarity margins and concluded to be equivalent. Safety 
endpoints were comparable between GL-GLA and the reference biologic.
