Oral Semaglutide Superior to Trulicity in Japanese Subjects (PIONEER 10)
Here is a brief preview of this blast: Novo Nordisk announced positive topline results from the PIONEER 10 study evaluating oral semaglutide vs. Trulicity in Japanese T2DM patients. Below is an updated PIONEER data summary table including available data from PIONEER 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and now 10. FENIX also provides thoughts on PIONEER 10 including Novo’s potential opportunity to leverage PIONEER 10 data to model a “SUSTAIN 7-like” trial (oral sema vs. Trulicity 1.5mg) for western markets. Furthermore, PIONEER 10 will likely help Novo’s GLP-1RA market position in Japan where Victoza now trails Trulicity (discussed below).
