Notes: One-step titration: 10 μg once daily for 1 week (GetGoal-Mono) or 2 weeks (GetGoal-F1), before reaching the target dose of 20 μg; two-step titration: 10 μg once daily for 1 week followed by 15 μg for 1 week, before reaching the target dose of 20 μg. A lixisenatide target dose of 20 μg once daily was used in all studies. The GetGoal-X study applied an exenatide target dose of 10 μg twice daily.

Abbreviation: AE, adverse event.
