Eli Lilly and CoLLY and Boehringer Ingelheim revealed their intensions to conduct two outcome studies investigating the diabetes drug, Jardiance, for the chronic heart failure treatment. According to the company, the trials were targeted to commence within the one year and planned to enroll people with a similar kind of ailment with, as well as, without type two diabetes (T2D). Eli Lilly said that JARDIANCE was the first diabetes treatment to exhibit a reduction in the risk of cardiovascular (CV) death in a dedicated CV outcomes trial. The pharmaceutical firm added that this was showcased on top of standard of care, which included glucose-lowering agents and CV drugs, in people with T2D at high risk of CV events.
