Inclusion Criteria
  • Participants who have had a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus
  • Participants who have been treated with insulin therapy (basal insulin, premixed insulin, or basal/mealtime insulin regimen) with or without 1 or 2 oral antidiabetics (OADs) at stable dose for at least 3 months before screening
  • Participants who have an HbA1c value ≥7.0% and ≤10.5% at screening if the participant is washing out OADs (dipeptidyl peptidase-4 [DPP-4] inhibitors, sulfonylurea [SU], or glinides) or ≥7.5% and ≤10.5% at screening if the participant is not washing out OADs
  • Participants who have stable weight (±5%) ≥3 months prior to screening
  • Participants who have a body mass index (BMI) of 18.5 to 35.0 kilograms per meter squared (kg/m^2)
Exclusion Criteria
  • Participants who have a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes
  • Participants who have previously received therapy with a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist within 3 months prior to screening
  • Participants who have been previously treated with dulaglutide prior to screening
  • Participants who have been treated with 2 of the following at screening: DPP-4 inhibitor, SU, and glinide (ie, DPP-4 inhibitor and SU, or DPP-4 inhibitor and glinide)
  • Participants who have been treated with continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) at screening
  • Participants who have clinically significant gastric emptying abnormality, hepatitis, pancreatitis, renal dysfunction, or thyroid abnormalities
  • Participants who have a history of clinically significant cardiovascular disease, transplanted organ, or active or untreated malignancy

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)Baseline, Week 16

HbA1c is a form of hemoglobin that is measured primarily to identify the average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time. Least square (LS) mean in HbA1c was calculated using a restricted maximum likelihood (REML) based mixed-effects model for repeated measures (MMRM) and adjusted by, baseline HbA1c, treatment, visit, and treatment-by-visit insulin regimen (basal insulin, premixed insulin, or basal/mealtime insulin), where participant treated as a random effect.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Daily Total Insulin DoseBaseline, Week 16

Mean change from baseline in total insulin dose was measured in each treatment groups.

Change From Baseline in Plasma Glucose From 7-Point Self-Monitored Blood Glucose Profiles (SMBG)Baseline, Week 16

The self-monitored plasma glucose (SMBG) data were collected at the following 7 time points: prebreakfast blood glucose (BG), breakfast 2-hour postprandial blood glucose (PPBG), prelunch BG, lunch 2-hour PPBG, predinner BG, dinner 2-hour PPBG, and bedtime BG. LS mean was calculated with fixed effect test of analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model and adjusted by, baseline value, treatment, baseline HbA1c Group (\<8.5%, ≥8.5%), insulin regimen (basal insulin, premixed insulin, or basal/mealtime insulin).

Percentage of Participants With HbA1c <7.0% or ≤6.5%Week 16

Percentage of participants whose HbA1c was \<7.0% or ≤6.5%. HbA1c \<7.0% is presented.

Change From Baseline in Fasting Serum Glucose (FSG)Baseline, Week 16

The LS mean change from baseline in FSG was calculated using a REML based MMRM and adjusted by, baseline value, treatment, visit, treatment-by-visit, baseline HbA1c Group (\<8.5%, \>=8.5%) + insulin regimen (basal insulin, premixed insulin, or basal/mealtime insulin), where participant treated as a random effect.

Change From Baseline in Body WeightBaseline, Week 16

LS mean change from baseline in body weight was calculated using a REML based MMRM and was adjusted by, baseline value, treatment, visit, treatment-by-visit, baseline HbA1c group (\<8.5%, \>=8.5%), insulin regimen (basal insulin, premixed insulin, or basal/mealtime insulin), where participant treated as a random effect.
