Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Time of Glucose Concentration Within the Target Range of Greater Than or Equal to (>=) 70 to Less Than or Equal to (<=) 180 Milligrams Per Deciliter: Non-inferiority Analysis

    Time frame: During Week 10 up to Week 12

    The Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) system combined frequent interstitial glucose measurements (every 5 minutes) with ability to analyze glucose levels in real time. Adjusted least square (LS) means and standard error (SE) were obtained using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model on data obtained from the multiple imputations during Week 10 to Week 12.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Glucose Total Coefficient of Variation (CV%)

    Time frame: During Week 10 up to Week 12

    CV% was a measure of spread of variability relative to mean of population. For CGM glucose values, CV% was measure of glycemic variability across 20 days and calculated as ratio of standard deviation of glucose values to mean of glucose values. LS means and SE were obtained using ANCOVA model using fixed categorical effects of treatment groups (Toujeo, Tresiba), randomization stratum of screening HbA1c (<8.0% versus >=8.0%), and the continuous fixed covariate of Baseline value.

  2. Percentage of Time of Glucose Concentration Within the Target Range of >=70 to <=180 Milligrams Per Deciliter: Superiority Analysis

    Time frame: During Week 10 up to Week 12

    The CGM system combined frequent interstitial glucose measurements (every 5 minutes) with ability to analyze glucose levels in real time. Adjusted LS means and SE were obtained using ANCOVA model on data obtained from the multiple imputations during Week 10 to Week 12.

  3. Glucose Within-day CV% and Between-day CV%

    Time frame: During Week 10 up to Week 12

    CV% was a measure of spread of variability relative to mean of population. For CGM glucose values, CV% was measure of glycemic variability across 20 days and calculated within day and between days as ratio of standard deviation of glucose values to mean of glucose values. LS mean and SE were obtained from ANCOVA model including fixed categorical effects of treatment groups (TOUJEO, TRESIBA), randomization stratum of screening HbA1c (<8.0% versus >=8.0%), and as well as, the continuous fixed covariate of Baseline value.

  4. Change From Baseline in Glycated Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) at Week 12

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

    Change in HbA1c at Week 12 was analyzed using an ANCOVA model including the fixed categorical effects of treatment groups (Toujeo, Tresiba), and the continuous fixed covariate of Baseline HbA1c value.

  5. Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) at Week 12

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

    Change in FPG was analyzed using an ANCOVA model including the fixed categorical effects of treatment groups (Toujeo, Tresiba) and the randomization stratum of HbA1c at screening (<8.0%, >=8.0%) and the continuous fixed covariate of Baseline FPG value.

  6. Percentage of Time With Glucose Level <70 Milligrams Per Deciliter (All Time and During the Night)

    Time frame: During Week 10 up to Week 12

    The CGM system combined frequent interstitial glucose measurements (every 5 minutes) with ability to analyze glucose levels in real time. "All time" represent the time between 00.00 hour to 23.59 hours and "night" represent the time between 00.00 hour to 05.59 hours. LS means and SE were obtained using ANCOVA model using fixed categorical effects of treatment groups (Toujeo, Tresiba), randomization stratum of screening HbA1c (<8.0% versus >=8.0%), and the continuous fixed covariate of Baseline value.

  7. Mean Hours Per Day With Glucose Level <70 Milligrams Per Deciliter (All Time and During the Night)

    Time frame: During Week 10 up to Week 12

    "All time" represent the time between 00.00 hour to 23.59 hours and "night" represent the time between 00.00 hour to 05.59 hours. Mean hours per day with glucose level <70 milligrams per deciliter during "all time" and only "during night" for the duration of Week 10 to Week 12 is reported in this outcome measure.

  8. Percentage of Time With Glucose Level >180 Milligrams Per Deciliter

    Time frame: During Week 10 up to Week 12

    The CGM system combined frequent interstitial glucose measurements (every 5 minutes) with ability to analyze glucose levels in real time. LS means and SE were obtained using ANCOVA model using fixed categorical effects of treatment groups (Toujeo, Tresiba), randomization stratum of screening HbA1c (<8.0% versus >=8.0%), and the continuous fixed covariate of Baseline value.

  9. Mean Hours Per Day With Glucose Level >180 Milligrams Per Deciliter

    Time frame: During Week 10 up to Week 12

    Mean hours per day with glucose level >180 milligrams per deciliter for the duration of Week 10 to Week 12 is reported in this outcome measure.

  10. Number of Participants With at Least One Hypoglycemic Event During the On-treatment Period

    Time frame: From the first injection of IMP up to 2 days after the last injection of IMP (i.e., up to 86 days)

    Severe hypoglycemia was an event in which the participant required the assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions, because the participant was not capable of helping self. Documented symptomatic hypoglycemia was an event during which typical symptoms of hypoglycemia were accompanied by a measured plasma glucose concentration of <3.9 millimoles per liter (mmol/L) (<70 milligrams per deciliter). On-treatment period was defined as the time from the first injection of IMP (included) up to 2 days after the last injection of IMP.

  11. Number of Hypoglycemic Events Per Participant Year During the On-treatment Period

    Time frame: From the first injection of IMP up to 2 days after the last injection of IMP (i.e., up to 86 days)

    Number of hypoglycemia events (any, severe and documented) per participant-year of exposure were reported. Severe hypoglycemia was an event in which the participant required the assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions, because the participant was not capable of helping self. Documented symptomatic hypoglycemia was an event during which typical symptoms of hypoglycemia were accompanied by a measured plasma glucose concentration of <3.9 mmol/L (<70 milligrams per deciliter). On-treatment period was defined as the time from the first injection of IMP (included) up to 2 days after the last injection of IMP. Total participant years = The sum of the duration of exposure for all participants, expressed in participant years.
