Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Baseline Adjusted Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) at Endpoint48 weeks

Least Squares Mean (LSMean) values were adjusted based on a fixed effect linear regression model: HbA1c = Treatment + Country + HbA1c baseline value + Ramadan holiday between Visit 10 (Week 36) and Visit 12 (Week 48) (yes/no) in per-protocol (PP) population.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
7-point Self-monitored Blood Glucose Profiles16 weeks, 32 weeks and 48 weeks
Body Weight Change From Baseline to Endpointbaseline, 48 weeks
Percentage of Patients Achieving HbA1c Less Than or Equal to 6.5% and Less Than or Equal to 7% Over Time16 weeks, 32 weeks and 48 weeks
Incidence of All Self-reported Hypoglycemic EpisodesBaseline to 48 weeks

Percentage of participants with self-reported hypoglycemic episodes at any time during the study. A hypoglycemic episode is defined as any time a participant feels that he/she is experiencing a sign or symptom that is associated with hypoglycemia, or has a blood glucose level of ≤70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L) (Roche plasma glucose) or ≤75 mg/dL (4.2 mmol/L) (IFCC Plasma Values), even if it was not associated with signs, symptoms, or treatment consistent with current guidelines (ADA 2005).

Rate Per 30 Days of All Self-reported Hypoglycemic EpisodesBaseline to 48 weeks

The hypoglycemia rate between two visits will be calculated as the total number of episodes between the two visits divided by the number of days between the visits, and then multiplied by 30 days (rate per patient per 30 days).

Number of Participants With Adverse EventsBaseline to 48 weeks

A summary of serious adverse events (SAEs) and all other non-serious treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) is located in the Reported Adverse Event Module.

TEAEs are defined as events that are newly reported after randomization or reported to worsen in severity from baseline.

Percentage of Participants Using Each Possible Final Insulin Regimen48 weeks

Insulin Regimens:

Lispro: Mid-Mix (MM) before noon; Low-Mix (LM) before evening (PM); MM before noon+LM before PM; LM before morning (AM)+MM before noon + LM before PM; MM before AM +MM before noon+LM before PM Glargine: Glargine once a day (QD); Glargine QD + 1 Lispro (noon or PM); Glargine QD + 2 Lispro (noon and PM); Glargine QD + 3 Lispro.

HbA1c Over Time16 weeks, 32 weeks, and 48 weeks

Least Squares Mean (LSMean) values were adjusted based on a mixed effect linear regression model with a participant specific random effect: HbA1c = Treatment + Country + HbA1c baseline value + Ramadan holiday between Visit 10 (Week 36) and Visit 12 (Week 48) (yes/no) + visit + visit\*treatment in Full Analysis Set (FAS) Population.

Mean Postprandial Blood Glucose ValuesBaseline, 16 weeks, 32 weeks and 48 weeks

Mean postprandial blood glucose values were assessed using GlycoMark, which is an FDA-approved blood test measuring levels of 1,5 anhydroglucitol (1,5 AG) in serum or plasma. When 1,5 AG values decrease, serum glucose levels increase.
