Thirty-five of the abstracts will be presented as part of the Boehringer Ingelheim-Lilly Diabetes alliance. "The Scientific Sessions are an important opportunity for researchers and healthcare and industry professionals to come together and share learnings and advances in diabetes care," said David Kendall, M.D., vice president of Medical Affairs, Lilly Diabetes. "We look forward to communicating significant new data that showcase the full range of our diabetes portfolio." Among the data being presented at this year's Scientific Sessions are: Basal Insulin Peglispro Lilly will share new efficacy and safety data for its investigational basal insulin peglispro (BIL), including two late-breaking abstracts and the first data presentations from the seven Phase III IMAGINE trials in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
