Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)Baseline, Week 18

HbA1c is the glycosylated fraction of hemoglobin A. HbA1c is measured to identify average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time.

Least Squares (LS) mean was determined by mixed-model repeated measures (MMRM) model with baseline as a covariate, pooled country, treatment, time, treatment\*time as fixed effects.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants Discontinuing Study Drug Due to Adverse EventsBaseline through Week 18

Adverse event (AE) defined as any unfavorable medical event, newly emerged or a deterioration of a preexisting condition, in other words any untoward medical occurrence in a patient administered a pharmaceutical product, without regard to the possibility of a causal relationship, that occurred after the visit for informed consent and up to the visit for completion of administration, or discontinuation.

Change From Baseline in Fasting Serum Glucose (FSG)Baseline, Week 18

Fasting serum glucose (FSG) is a test to determine how much glucose (sugar) is in a serum sample after an overnight fast. Least Squares (LS) means was determined by MMRM methodology with baseline as a covariate, pooled country, baseline HbA1c strata using \>=8% as cutoff, treatment, time, treatment\*time as fixed effects.

Change From Baseline in Body WeightBaseline, Week 18

Least Squares (LS) mean was determined by mixed-model repeated measures (MMRM) model with baseline as a covariate, pooled country, baseline HbA1c strata using \>=8% as cutoff, treatment, time, treatment\*time as fixed effects.

Rate of Documented Symptomatic HypoglycemiaWeek 18

Hypoglycemic events (HE) were classified as severe, documented symptomatic (defined as an HE with typical symptoms of hypoglycemia and a blood glucose level of ≤3.9 millimoles per liter \[mmol/L\]). Hypoglycemia rate per 30 days was summarized at each visit by treatment group. The rate of hypoglycemia was analyzed using a generalized estimation equations model with a negative binomial distribution and a Log link. LS mean was determined by MMRM methodology with baseline hypoglycemia rate, pooled country, HbA1c at Baseline, treatment, with log of exposure in days divided by 365.25 as the offset.

Pharmacokinetics (PK): The Maximum Drug Concentration at Steady State (Cmax,ss) of Dulaglutide0, 2, 4, 6, 10, 18, 22 weeks and early termination

Plasma samples for PK analysis were combined measure obtained from 0, 2, 4, 6, 10, 18, 22 weeks and until early termination of the visit. Cmax takes all time points post dose into account and one value was reported.

Percentage of Participants With HbA1c of <7.0%Week 18

Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is the glycosylated fraction of hemoglobin A. HbA1c is measured to identify average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time.

Pharmacokinetics: Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve at Steady State From Time Zero to 168 Hours (AUC[0-168], ss) of Dulaglutide0, 2, 4, 6, 10, 18, 22 weeks and early termination

AUC\[0-168h\] is a combined measure obtained from 0, 2, 4, 6, 10, 18, 22 weeks and until early termination of the visit.
