The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said Monday it approved a treatment made by Novo Nordisk A/S to treat pediatric patients with type 2 diabetes.
The FDA said Novo's Victoza, or liraglutide, injection is the first non-insulin drug approved to treat type 2 diabetes in pediatric patients since 2000. The treatment was approved for pediatric patients 10 years or older with type 2 diabetes, and has been approved to treat adult patients with type 2 diabetes since 2010.
Lisa Yanoff, acting director of the Division of Metabolism and Endocrinology Products in the FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, said: "Victoza has now been shown to improve blood sugar control in pediatric patients with type 2 diabetes. The expanded indication provides an additional treatment option at a time when an increasing number of children are being diagnosed with this disease."
