The modified intent-to-treat (mITT) analysis, excluding one non-adherent patient, demonstrated non-inferiority of Afrezza to MDI with a between-group difference of 0.370% in HbA1c change, meeting the primary endpoint's threshold of 0.4%. No significant differences in lung function or safety parameters were observed between groups. The company plans to meet with FDA regarding a potential supplemental new drug application (sNDA) submission in first half of 2025.
