A Study of LY2963016 Compared to Lantus® in Adult Chinese Participants With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

The purpose of this study is to compare long-acting basal insulin analog LY2963016 to Lantus® in insulin naïve adult Chinese participants with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) on 2 or more oral antihyperglycemic medications (OAMs). Participants will continue their OAMs throughout the study.

Primary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) (LY2963016 to Lantus®)

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 24

    HbA1c is the glycosylated fraction of hemoglobin A. HbA1c is measured primarily to identify average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time. Least square (LS) mean was calculated by mixed-effects model for repeated measures (MMRM) with baseline, insulin secretagogues at study entry, treatment, visit and treatment*visit in the model.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in HbA1c (Lantus® to LY2963016)

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 24

    HbA1c is a form of hemoglobin that is measured primarily to identify the average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time. LS mean was calculated by MMRM with baseline, insulin secretagogues at study entry, treatment, visit and treatment*visit in the model.

  2. Change From Baseline in 7-Point Self-Monitored Blood Glucose (SMBG) Values

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 24

    Seven-point SMBG are completed at the following timepoints: Before Morning Meal, 2 Hours After Morning Meal, Before Mid-Day Meal, 2 Hours After Mid-Day Meal, Before Evening Meal, 2 Hours After Evening Meal and Bed Time. LS mean was calculated by MMRM with baseline, insulin secretagogues at study entry, baseline HbA1c, treatment, time and treatment*time in the model.

  3. Percentage of Participants With HbA1c <7% at Week 24

    Time frame: Week 24

    The percentage of participants was calculated by dividing the number of participants reaching target HbA1c by the total number of participants analyzed, multiplied by 100.

  4. Percentage of Participants With HbA1c ≤6.5% at Week 24

    Time frame: Week 24

    The percentage of participants was calculated by dividing the number of participants reaching target HbA1c by the total number of participants analyzed, multiplied by 100.

  5. Change From Baseline in Glycemic Variability of Fasting Blood Glucose

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 24

    Glycemic variability is measured by the intra-participant standard deviation (SD) value of fasting blood glucose as measured by the actual morning and daily pre-meal blood glucose value from the 7-point self-monitoring blood glucose [SMBG] profiles. LS mean was calculated by MMRM with baseline, insulin secretagogues at study entry, baseline HbA1c, treatment, time and treatment*time in the model.

  6. Basal Insulin Dose Units Per Day

    Time frame: At Week 24

    Units of basal insulin dose taken per day (U/day). LS mean was calculated by MMRM with baseline, insulin secretagogues at study entry, baseline HbA1c, treatment, time and treatment*time in the model.

  7. Change From Baseline in Basal Insulin Dose Units Per Day

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 24

    Units of basal insulin dose taken per day (U/day). LS mean was calculated by MMRM with baseline, insulin secretagogues at study entry, baseline HbA1c, treatment, time and treatment*time in the model.

  8. Change From Baseline in Body Weight

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 24

    Change from baseline in body weight was evaluated. LS mean was calculated by MMRM with baseline, insulin secretagogues at study entry, baseline HbA1c, treatment, time and treatment*time in the model.

  9. Insulin Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (ITSQ)

    Time frame: At Week 24

    ITSQ is a validated instrument containing 22 items that assess treatment satisfaction for participants with diabetes and on insulin. Items divided into 5 domains of satisfaction: Inconvenience of Regimen [(IR) 5 items: domain scores range (DSR) 5-35], Lifestyle Flexibility [(LF) 3 items: DSR 3-21], Glycemic Control [(GC) 3 items: DSR 3-21], Hypoglycemic Control [(HC) 5 items: DSR 5-35], Insulin Delivery Device [(IDD) 6 items: DSR 6-42]. All items measured on a 7-point scale: 1 (no bother at all) to 7 (a tremendous bother), with lower scores reflecting better outcomes. ITSQ Total Overall Raw Scores range from 22-154. Both raw domain and overall scores are transformed on a scale of 0-100, where transformed score=100*[(7-mean raw score)/6]. Higher scores indicate better treatment satisfaction. LS mean was calculated by MMRM with baseline, insulin secretagogues at study entry, baseline HbA1c, treatment, time and treatment*time in the model.

  10. Number of Participants With Detectable Anti-Glargine Antibodies

    Time frame: Baseline through 24 weeks

    Number of participants with detectable anti-glargine antibodies were reported.

  11. Rate of Total Symptomatic and Nocturnal Hypoglycemia Events (Adjusted by 1 Year)

    Time frame: Baseline through 24 weeks

    Hypoglycemic episodes are defined as events that are associated with reported signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia and/or documented blood glucose (BG) concentrations of ≤70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L). The overall yearly rates (events/participant/year) of those hypoglycemic events, calculated as, for each participant, the number of episodes times 365.25 and then divided by the participants treatment duration, will be summarized, and analyzed by a negative-binomial regression model with treatment as fixed effects and log of (participant's treatment duration/365.25) as an offset variable. A nocturnal hypoglycemic event is defined as any total hypoglycemia event that occurred between bedtime and waking.
