For a patient to be included in mITT population, both baseline and at least 1 post baseline assessment for at least 1 efficacy variable, were required.

Change From Baseline in Glucose Excursion at Week 24

Time frame · Baseline, Week 24

Glucose excursion = 2-hour PPG minus plasma glucose 30 minutes prior to the standardized meal test, before study drug administration. Change was calculated by subtracting baseline value from Week 24 value. The on-treatment period for this efficacy variable is the time from the first dose of study drug up to the last dosing day of study drug or up to the introduction of rescue therapy, whichever is the earliest. For a patient to be included in mITT population, both baseline and at least 1 post baseline assessment for at least 1 efficacy variable, were required.

Change From Baseline in Average 7-Point Self Monitored Plasma Glucose (SMPG) Profile at Week 24

Time frame · Baseline, Week 24

Patients recorded a 7-point plasma glucose profile measured before and 2 hours after each meal and at bedtime once in a week and the average value for the 7-time points was calculated. The on-treatment period for this efficacy variable is the time from the first dose of study drug up to the last dosing day of study drug or up to the introduction of rescue therapy, whichever is the earliest. For a patient to be included in mITT population, both baseline and at least 1 post baseline assessment for at least 1 efficacy variable, were required.

Change From Baseline in Body Weight at Week 24

Time frame · Baseline, Week 24

Change was calculated by subtracting baseline value from Week 24 value. The on-treatment period for this efficacy variable is the time from the first dose of study drug up to 3 days after the last dose of study drug or up to the introduction of rescue therapy, whichever is the earliest. For a patient to be included in mITT population, both baseline and at least 1 post baseline assessment for at least 1 efficacy variable, were required.

Change From Baseline in Average Insulin Glargine Daily Dose at Week 24

Time frame · Baseline, Week 24

Change was calculated by subtracting the baseline value from Week 24 value. The on-treatment period for this efficacy variable is the time from the first dose of study drug up to the last dosing day of study drug or up to the introduction of rescue therapy, whichever is the earliest. For a patient to be included in mITT population, both baseline and at least 1 post baseline assessment for at least 1 efficacy variable, were required.

Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) at Week 24

Time frame · Baseline, Week 24

Change was calculated by subtracting baseline value from Week 24 value. The on-treatment period for this efficacy variable is the time from the first dose of study drug up to 1 day after the last dose of study drug or up to the introduction of rescue therapy, whichever is the earliest. For a patient to be included in mITT population, both baseline and at least 1 post baseline assessment for at least 1 efficacy variable, were required.

Percentage of Patients With Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) Level Less Than 7% at Week 24

Time frame · Week 24

The on-treatment period for this efficacy variable is the time from the first dose of study drug up to 14 days after the last dose of study drug or up to the introduction of rescue therapy, whichever is the earliest. For a patient to be included in mITT population, both baseline and at least 1 post baseline assessment for at least 1 efficacy variable, were required.

Percentage of Patients With Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) Level Less Than or Equal to 6.5% at Week 24

Time frame · Week 24

The on-treatment period for this efficacy variable is the time from the first dose of study drug up to 14 days after the last dose of study drug or up to the introduction of rescue therapy, whichever is the earliest. For a patient to be included in mITT population, both baseline and at least 1 post baseline assessment for at least 1 efficacy variable, were required.

Percentage of Patients Requiring Rescue Therapy During the Double-blind Period

Time frame · Baseline up to Week 24

Routine fasting SMPG, central laboratory FPG and HbA1c values were used to determine the requirement of rescue medication. If fasting SMPG value exceeded the specified limit for 3 consecutive days, the central laboratory FPG and HbA1c were performed. Threshold values - from baseline to Week 8: fasting SMPG/FPG \>200 milligram/deciliter (mg/dL) (11.1 mmol/L) or HbA1c \>9%, from Week 8 to Week 24: fasting SMPG/FPG \>180 mg/dL (10.0 mmol/L) or HbA1c \>8.5%. For a patient to be included in mITT population, both baseline and at least 1 post baseline assessment for at least 1 efficacy variable, were required.

Change From Baseline in Treatment Satisfaction Score (Sum of Items 1, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 of DTSQ) at Week 24

Time frame · Baseline, Week 24

Change was calculated by subtracting baseline value from Week 24 value. DTSQ: 8-item questionnaire to assess treatment satisfaction and patient perception of hyper and hypoglycemia. Each question (Q) scored on a Likert scale from 0 to 6. Six items (Q1 and 4-8; higher score = more satisfaction) measured treatment satisfaction and were summed to calculate treatment satisfaction score which ranged from 0 (very dissatisfied) to 36 (very satisfied). Two items (Q2 and 3), which were not included, measured perceived hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia, respectively and lower scores represented good perceived blood glucose control. The on-treatment period for this efficacy variable is the time from the first dose of study drug up to 3 days after the last dose of study drug or up to the introduction of rescue therapy, whichever is the earliest. For a patient to be included in mITT population, both baseline and at least 1 post baseline assessment for at least 1 efficacy variable, were required.
