Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Change From Baseline in HbA1c After 24 Weeks

Time Frame: Baseline and 24 weeks

HbA1c is measured as a percentage. Adjusted for treatment, baseline HbA1c, categorical renal function impairment and concomitant Oral antidiabetic drugs (OAD)

  • Number of Patients Lowering HbA1c by at Least 0.5 Percent(24 and 52 weeks)
  • Change From Baseline in HbA1c by Visit at Week 6(Baseline and 6 weeks)
  • Change From Baseline in HbA1c by Visit at Week 12(Baseline and 12 weeks)
  • Change From Baseline in HbA1c by Visit at Week 18(Baseline and 18 weeks)
  • Change From Baseline in HbA1c by Visit at Week 32(Baseline and 32 weeks)
  • Change From Baseline in HbA1c by Visit at Week 40(Baseline and 40 weeks)
  • Change From Baseline in HbA1c by Visit at Week 52(Baseline and 52 weeks)
  • Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) at 24 Weeks of Treatment(Baseline and 24 weeks)
  • Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) After 52 Weeks of Treatment(Baseline and 52 weeks)
  • Change From Baseline in FPG(Baseline, 6, 12, 18, 24, 32 and 40 weeks)
  • Change From Baseline in Mean Insulin Dose at 52 Weeks of Treatment(Baseline and 52 weeks)
  • Change From Baseline in Weighted Mean Daily Glucose After 24 and 52 Weeks of Treatment(Baseline, 24 and 52 weeks)
