10 mg TirzepatideTirzepatideParticipants received 10 mg tirzepatide administered SC QW.
15 mg TirzepatideTirzepatideParticipants received 15 mg tirzepatide administered SC QW.
5 mg TirzepatideTirzepatideParticipants received 5 milligrams (mg) tirzepatide administered subcutaneously (SC) once weekly (QW).
Insulin GlargineInsulin GlargineParticipants received insulin glargine administered once daily (QD) SC. The starting dose of insulin glargine was 6 Insulin Units (IU)/day at bedtime, titrated to a fasting blood glucose (FBG) between 72-100 milligrams per Deciliter (mg/dL), following a treat-to-target (TTT) algorithm.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mean Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) (10 mg and 15 mg)Baseline, Week 40

HbA1c is the glycosylated fraction of hemoglobin A. HbA1c is measured primarily 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 covariates Baseline + Country + Baseline Oral Antihyperglycemic Medication (OAM) Use (Metformin (Met), Met plus Sulfonylurea (SU)) + Treatment + Time + Treatment\*Time (Type III sum of squares).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants Achieving an HbA1c Target Value of <7.0%Week 40

HbA1c is the glycosylated fraction of hemoglobin A. HbA1c is measured to identify average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time. Imputed data includes observed value and imputed value if endpoint measure is missing.

Mean Change From Baseline in Body WeightBaseline, Week 40

LS mean was determined by MMRM model with Baseline + Country + Baseline OAM Use (Met, Met plus SU) + Baseline HbA1c Group (\<= 8.5%, \>8.5%) + Treatment + Time + Treatment\*Time (Type III sum of squares) as covariates.

Mean Change From Baseline in HbA1c (5 mg)Baseline, Week 40

HbA1c is the glycosylated fraction of hemoglobin A. HbA1c is measured primarily to identify average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time. LS mean was determined by MMRM model with covariates Baseline + Country + Baseline OAM Use (Met, Met plus SU) + Treatment + Time + Treatment\*Time (Type III sum of squares).

Percentage of Participants Achieving an HbA1c Target Value of <5.7%Week 40

HbA1c is the glycosylated fraction of hemoglobin A. Imputed data includes observed value and imputed value if endpoint measure is missing.

Mean Change in Daily Glucose Average From Baseline in 7-Point Self-Monitored Blood Glucose (SMBG) ValuesBaseline, Week 40

The SMBG data was collected at the following 7 time points: Morning Premeal - Fasting, Morning 2-hour Post-meal, Midday Premeal, Midday 2-hour Post-meal, Evening Premeal, Evening 2-hour Post-meal and Bedtime. LS mean was determined by MMRM model with Baseline + Country + Baseline OAM Use (Met, Met plus SU) + Baseline HbA1c Group (\<= 8.5%, \>8.5%) + Treatment + Time + Treatment\*Time (Type III sum of squares) as covariates.

Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction as Measured by the Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire, Change Version (DTSQc) Hyperglycemia, Hypoglycemia and Treatment Satisfaction ScoreBaseline, Week 40

DTSQc, an 8-item questionnaire, assesses relative change in treatment satisfaction perceived frequency of hyperglycemia, and perceived frequency of hypoglycemia from baseline to week 40 or early termination. The treatment satisfaction score ranges from -18 to 18 where the higher the score the greater the improvement in satisfaction with treatment. The lower the score the greater the deterioration in satisfaction with treatment. The hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia scores range from -3 to 3 where negative scores indicate fewer problems with blood glucose levels and positive scores indicate more problems than before. LS mean was determined by ANCOVA model for endpoint measures with Baseline + Country + Baseline HbA1c Group (\<=8.5%, \>8.5%) + Baseline OAM Use (Met, Met plus SU) + Treatment (Type III sum of squares) as covariates.

Mean Change From Baseline in Fasting Serum GlucoseBaseline, Week 40

Fasting serum glucose (FSG) is a test to determine sugar levels in serum sample after an overnight fast. LS mean was determined by MMRM model with Baseline + Country + Baseline OAM Use (Met, Met plus SU) + Baseline HbA1c Group (\<= 8.5%, \>8.5%) + Treatment + Time + Treatment\*Time (Type III sum of squares) as covariates.

Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Weight Loss ≥5%Week 40

Imputed data includes observed value and imputed value if endpoint measure is missing.

Rate of Hypoglycemia With Blood Glucose < 54 mg/dL or Severe HypoglycemiaBaseline through end of safety follow-up (Up To Week 44)

The hypoglycemia events were defined by participant reported events with blood glucose \< 54 mg/dL \[\<3.0 Millimole per Liter (mmol/L)\] or severe hypoglycemia. Severe hypoglycemia is defined as an episode with severe cognitive impairment requiring the assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions. These episodes may be associated with sufficient neuroglycopenia to induce seizure or coma. The rate of post-baseline hypoglycemia was estimated by negative binomial model: Number of episodes = Country + Baseline OAM Use (Met, Met plus SU) + Baseline HbA1c Group (\<= 8.5%, \>8.5%) + Treatment, with log (exposure in days/365.25) as an offset variable.
