Boan Biotech announced that it has completed patient enrolment in its phase III clinical trial for BA5101, its proposed biosimilar to Eli Lilly’s Trulicity® (dulaglutide) used in patients with insufficiently controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus. Boan’s clinical trial will compare the clinical efficacy, safety, immunogenicity and pharmacokinetics of BA5101 with Trulicity® in Chinese adult patients with type 2 diabetes.
Two weeks ago, Boan’s parent company Luye Pharma announced that it commenced a phase III clinical trial for its Prolia®/Xgeva® (denosumab) biosimilar.
