Primary outcomes

  1. Change in Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) From Baseline to 24 Week Endpoint

    Time frame: Baseline, 24 weeks

    Least Squares (LS) means are calculated using mixed model repeating measures (MMRM) with the change from baseline in HbA1c at all post baseline measurement as dependent variables, treatment, country, visit and treatment by visit interaction as fixed effects, baseline HbA1c value as a covariate and participant as a random effect.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change in HbA1c From Baseline to 12 Week Endpoint

    Time frame: Baseline, 12 weeks

    Least Squares (LS) means are calculated using mixed model repeating measures (MMRM) with the change from baseline in HbA1c at all post baseline measurement as dependent variables, treatment, country, visit and treatment by visit interaction as fixed effects, baseline HbA1c value as a covariate and participant as a random effect.

  2. The Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) Less Than or Equal to 6.5% and Less Than or Equal to 7% at 12 Weeks and 24 Weeks

    Time frame: 12 weeks, 24 weeks

    The Percentage of participants achieving a haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) less than or equal (<=) to 6.5% or 7% is defined as 100 multiplied by the number of participants with a HbA1c of the cut-off value (6% or 7%) divided by the number of participants exposed to study drug. Participants with missing HbA1c values at endpoint were treated as not achieving the HbA1c goal.

  3. The 7-point Self-monitored Blood Glucose (SMBG) Profiles at Baseline, 12 Weeks and 24 Weeks.

    Time frame: Baseline, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks

    7-point Self-monitored Blood Glucose (SMBG) Profiles are measures of blood glucose taken 7 times a day at the morning pre-meal, morning 2-hours post-meal, midday pre-meal, midday 2-hours post-meal, evening pre-meal, evening 2-hours post-meal, and 0300 hour [3 am]. Each participant took measures on 3 non-consecutive days and the average was calculated for each of the 7 time points. The mean of the 7-point averages was calculated for all the participants at baseline, Weeks 12 and 24.

  4. Daily Dose of Insulin: Total, Basal, and Prandial

    Time frame: 24 weeks

  5. Change in Body Mass Index (BMI) From Baseline to 12 and 24 Weeks

    Time frame: Baseline, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks

    Body mass index is an estimate of body fat based on body weight divided by height squared. Least Squares (LS) means are calculated using mixed model repeating measures (MMRM) using change from baseline in BMI at all post baseline measurement as dependent variables, treatment, country, visit and treatment by visit interaction as fixed effects, baseline BMI value as a covariate and participants as a random effect.

  6. Daily Dose of Insulin Per Kilogram of Body Weight: Total, Basal and Prandial

    Time frame: 24 weeks

  7. Percentage of Participants With Hypoglycemic Episodes (Incidence)

    Time frame: baseline through 24 weeks

    Incidence of hypoglycemic episodes is defined as 100 multiplied by the number of participants experiencing a hypoglycemic episode divided by the number of participants exposed to study drug. Hypoglycemic episodes are defined as an event which is associated with reported signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia, and/or a documented blood glucose (BG) concentration of <= 70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L).

  8. The Rate of Hypoglycemic Episodes

    Time frame: baseline through 24 weeks

    The rate of hypoglycemic episodes is defined as the mean number of hypoglycemic episodes per 30 days per participant. Hypoglycemic episodes are defined as an event which is associated with reported signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia, and/or a documented blood glucose (BG) concentration of <= 70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L).

  9. Percentage of Participants Experiencing a Severe Hypoglycemic Episode

    Time frame: baseline through 24 weeks

    Severe hypoglycemic episode is defined as any event requiring the assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions. The percentage of participants experiencing a severe hypoglycemic episode is defined as the 100 multiplied by the number of participants experiencing a severe hypoglycemic episode divided by the number of participants exposed to study drug.
