Primary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline to Week 26 in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 26

    Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is a test that measures a participant's average blood glucose level over the past 2 to 3 months. Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using a mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) analysis adjusting for treatment, stratification factors (region, sulfonylureas/meglitinide use, baseline Low-Density Lipoprotein [LDL-C], visit, treatment-by-visit interaction, and baseline HbA1c as fixed effects and participants as the random effect. P-value is from MMRM with terms for treatment, visit, treatment-by-visit interaction, stratification, and baseline HbA1C.

Secondary outcomes

  1. 30-Day Adjusted Rate of Total and Nocturnal Hypoglycemic Events

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 26

    Hypoglycemia Events (HE) occurs when blood glucose level ≤ 70 milligram per deciliter (mg/dL) (<3.9 micromoles per liter [mmol/L]). Nocturnal HE includes any total HE that occurred between bedtime and waking. Group mean rates of nocturnal hypoglycemia (per 30 days) are presented and were calculated from negative binomial regression models with treatment, baseline sulfonylurea/meglitinide use, baseline total hypoglycemia event rate, log (exposure/30 days) as the offset in the model. Group Mean is estimated by taking the inverse link function on individual participant covariates first and then averages over all participants.

  2. Fasting Serum Glucose (FSG)

    Time frame: Weeks 0 and 26

    LS means were calculated using MMRM analysis adjusting for baseline, treatment, stratification factor (region, HbA1c, LDL-C, and sulfonylurea [SU]/meglitinide use), visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction.

  3. Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG)

    Time frame: Weeks 0 and 26

    LS Means were calculated using MMRM analysis adjusting for baseline, treatment, stratification factor (region, HbA1c, LDL-C, and SU/meglitinide use), visit and treatment-by-visit interaction.

  4. Change From Baseline to Week 26 in Body Weight

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 26

    LS Means were calculated using MMRM analysis adjusting for baseline, treatment, stratification factor (region, HbA1c, LDL-C, and SU/meglitinide use), visit and treatment-by-visit interaction.

  5. 9-Point Self-Monitored Blood Glucose (SMBG)

    Time frame: Week 0 and Week 26

    LS means were calculated using MMRM analysis adjusting for baseline, treatment, stratification factor (region, HbA1c, LDL-C, and SU/meglitinide use), visit and treatment-by-visit interaction. The 9-point SMBG are measured at: Pre-morning meal, 2 hours(hr) post morning meal, pre-midday meal, 2 hr post midday meal, pre-evening meal, 2 hr post pre-evening meal, bedtime, 0300 hr, and pre-morning meal next day, and should be performed on 2 non-consecutive days.

  6. Percentage of Participants With HbA1c ≤6.5%

    Time frame: Week 26

    Percentage of participants with HbA1c ≤6.5% at Week 26 were made using a logistic regression model for endpoint used last observation carried forward (LOCF) method including treatment, baseline HbA1c value.

  7. Insulin Dose Per Kilogram (kg) of Body Weight

    Time frame: Week 26

    LS means were calculated using MMRM analysis adjusting for baseline, treatment, stratification factor (region, HbA1c, LDL-C, and SU/meglitinide), visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction.

  8. Percentage of Participants Achieving Steady-State of Basal Insulin Dose at 26 Weeks (Time to Steady State for Basal Insulin [Stable Maximum Dose])

    Time frame: Week 26

  9. Concentration of Triglycerides, Total Cholesterol, Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL-C), and High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL-C) at Week 26

    Time frame: Week 26

    LS means were calculated using MMRM analysis adjusting for baseline, treatment, stratification factor (region, HbA1c, LDL-C, and SU/meglitinide use), visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction.

  10. Percentage of Participants With Detectable Anti-Insulin Peglispro Antibodies at Week 26

    Time frame: Week 26

    For participants with detectable anti-insulin peglispro antibody level, the percentage of participants with positive cross-react with endogenous insulin was summarized.

  11. Change From Baseline of European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions - 3 Levels (EuroQoL-5D-3L ) Index Score and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Health State Score at Week 26

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 26

    The EuroQoL-5D-3L questionnaire is a generic, multidimensional, health-related, quality-of-life instrument. The profile allows participants to rate their health state in 5 health domains: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression using a 3-level scale of 1 to 3 (no problem, some problems, and extreme problems). These combinations of attributes are converted into a weighted health-state Index Score according to the United States population-based algorithm. Scores ranged from -0.11 to 1.0 where a score of 1.0 indicates perfect health. Overall health state score was self-reported using a VAS marked on a scale of 0 to 100 (0 indicates worst imaginable health state and 100 indicates best imaginable health state. LS means were calculated using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) for actual measures and changes from baseline at endpoint using LOCF method: adjusting for treatment, stratification factors (region, HbA1c and SU/meglitin.

  12. Insulin Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (ITSQ) Score

    Time frame: Week 4 and 26

    The Insulin Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire is a validated instrument containing 22 items that assessed treatment satisfaction for participants with diabetes on insulin. The questionnaire measures satisfaction from the following 5 domains: Inconvenience of Regimen, Lifestyle Flexibility, Glycemic Control, Hypoglycemic Control, and Insulin Delivery Device. Data presented are the transformed score on a scale of 0-100, where a higher score indicate better treatment satisfaction. LS means was achieved using a MMRM model for post-baseline measures with stratification factors (country, HbA1c, and SU/meglitinide use) treatment, visit, treatment-by-visit as fixed effects. ITSQ was assessed at Week 4 (baseline) and Week 26.

  13. Change From Baseline to 26 Weeks in Adult Low Blood Sugar Survey (LBSS) Scores

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 26

    LBSS is a validated, participant-reported 33-item questionnaire with items rated on a 5-point Likert scale, where 0 = never and 5 - always. The LBSS measures behaviors to avoid hypoglycemia and its negative consequences (15 items) and worries about hypoglycemia and its negative consequences (18 items). Total score is the sum of all items (range 0 to 132). Higher total scores reflect greater fear of hypoglycemia. Least Squares (LS) means of change from baseline were calculated using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with country, treatment and metformin use as fixed effects and baseline score as a covariate. LBSS was assessed during screening visit (baseline) and again at Week 26.

  14. Intra-Participant Variability of the Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG)

    Time frame: Week 26

    Intra-participant variability of Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG), which was measured by Self Monitored Blood Glucose (SMBG), was assessed by the standard deviation of the FBG measurement at the Week 26 visit. LS means were calculated using a MMRM with baseline fasting blood glucose measurement, stratification factors (country, HbA1c, LDL-C [< 100 mg/dL and ≥ 100 mg/dL], and SU/meglitinide use), treatment, visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction as fixed effects.

  15. Change From Baseline to 12 Weeks in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

    Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is a test that measures a participant's average blood glucose level over the past 2 to 3 months.LS means were calculated using a MMRM with baseline HbA1C measurement, stratification factors (country, HbA1c, LDL-C [< 100 mg/dL and ≥ 100 mg/dL], and SU/meglitinide use), treatment, visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction as fixed effects.

  16. Percent Hemoglobin A1c at Week 26

    Time frame: Week 26

    HbA1c is a test that measures a participant's average blood glucose level over the past 2 to 3 months. LS means were calculated using a MMRM with baseline HbA1C measurement, stratification factors (country, HbA1c, LDL-C [< 100 mg/dL and ≥ 100 mg/dL], and SU/meglitinide use), treatment, visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction as fixed effects.

  17. Percentage of Participants With Total and Nocturnal Hypoglycemic Events (HE)

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 26

    Percentage of participants with hypoglycemic events (total or nocturnal) to Week 26 based on BG Threshold 70mg/dL.
