Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage Change From Baseline in Glycosylated Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) After 24 Weeks of TreatmentBaseline and week 24

Percentage change from baseline, that is, \[\[(HbA1c after 24 weeks of treatment) - (HbA1c at baseline)\] / (HbA1c at baseline)\] \*100%, where baseline refers to the last observation prior to the start of randomised study drug, including the observation prior to the placebo run-in.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) After 24 Weeks of TreatmentBaseline and week 24

Change from baseline in Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) after 24 weeks of treatment.

Change From Baseline in 2-hour (2-h) Postprandial Plasma Glucose (PPG) After 24 Weeks of TreatmentBaseline and week 24

Change from baseline in 2-hour (2-h) postprandial plasma glucose (PPG) after 24 weeks of treatment.

Percentage of Participants With HbA1c on Treatment <7.0 Percentage (%) After 24 Weeks of Treatment24 weeks

Percentage of participants with HbA1c on treatment \<7.0 percentage (%) after 24 weeks of treatment. Participants with baseline HbA1c \<7.0% were excluded from the analysis.

Percentage of Participants With HbA1c on Treatment < 6.5% After 24 Weeks of Treatment24 weeks

Percentage of participants with HbA1c on treatment \< 6.5% after 24 weeks of treatment. Participants with baseline HbA1c \<6.5% were excluded from the analysis.

Percentage of Participants With HbA1c Lowering by at Least 0.5% After 24 Weeks of Treatment24 weeks

Percentage of participants with HbA1c lowering by at least 0.5% after 24 weeks of treatment.

Percentage of Participants With Any Investigator-defined Hypoglycaemic Adverse Event (AE) With Plasma Glucose (PG) ≤70 mg/dL24 weeks

Incidence of investigator-reported hypoglycaemic events confirmed by a measured blood glucose ≤70 mg/dL (≤3.9 Millimoles Per Litre (mmol/L)). Severe hypoglycaemic AE = hypoglycaemic event requiring the assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon or other resuscitative actions.

Percentage of Participants With Any Severe Hypoglycaemic AE24 weeks

Incidence of severe hypoglycaemic events (requiring active assistance by another person, or fatal). Severe hypoglycaemic AE = hypoglycaemic event requiring the assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon or other resuscitative actions.
