SOLIQUA 100/33 (insulin glargine)
SOLIQUA 100/33 is a combination of insulin glargine and lixisenatide indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The medication is not recommended for the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis or for use in combination with other GLP-1 receptor agonists. Additionally, its use has not been studied in combination with prandial insulin. This therapy combines a basal insulin analog with a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist to provide a multi-pathway approach to blood sugar management.
How SOLIQUA 100/33 Works
This combination product regulates glucose metabolism through the complementary actions of two active agents. Insulin glargine lowers blood glucose by stimulating peripheral glucose uptake in skeletal muscle and fat while inhibiting the liver's production of glucose. Lixisenatide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, increases glucose-dependent insulin release, suppresses glucagon secretion, and slows the rate of gastric emptying. Together, these mechanisms enhance protein synthesis and inhibit the breakdown of fats and proteins to maintain glycemic control.

- Type 2 Diabetes
- Diabetic Ketoacidosis
SOLIQUA 100/33 Target & Pathway
ProTarget
A hormone released after eating that stimulates insulin secretion, suppresses glucagon, slows gastric emptying, and promotes satiety. GLP-1 receptor agonists mimic these effects, improving blood sugar control and promoting weight loss in diabetes and obesity.

How We Calculate These Metrics
Trial Activity Stage
Measures the current development activity pattern based on trial phases, status, and trends. Important: This measures R&D activity, not commercial lifecycle.
Trial statuses: "Active" means recruiting or ongoing. "Completed" means reached planned endpoint. "Terminated" means stopped early—often due to safety, efficacy, or business reasons.
- Growth: High proportion of early-phase trials (Phase 1/2), active development
- Expansion: Significant Phase 3 activity, approaching or pursuing approvals
- Mature: Substantial Phase 4 post-marketing studies
- Stable: Mixed phase distribution, steady development
- Declining: Low active trial ratio, reduced R&D investment
