Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Conditions
Brief summary
This is a randomized, open-label, dulaglutide-controlled, multicenter Phase 3 trial to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of different doses of TG103 injection in combination with metformin in subjects with type 2 diabetes with poor glycemic control treated with metformin monotherapy.
Interventions
TG103 injection, 7.5mg, 15 mg, SC, once a week
Dulaglutide, SC, once a week
