Insulin glargine + OAM

Arm Description

LY2189265: 0.75 milligrams (mg), administered subcutaneously (SC), once weekly for 26 weeks Participants were to continue on their stable, pre-study, physician-prescribed dose of oral antihyperglycemic medication (OAM) throughout the study. OAMs included sulfonylureas (SU; glibenclamide, gliclazide, or glimepiride) and/or biguanides (BG; metformin or buformin).

Insulin glargine: dose based on targeting fasting blood glucose ≤110 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL), administered subcutaneously (SC), once daily for 26 weeks Participants were to continue on their stable, pre-study, physician-prescribed dose of oral antihyperglycemic medication (OAM) throughout the study. OAMs included sulfonylureas (SU; glibenclamide, gliclazide, or glimepiride) and/or biguanides (BG; metformin or buformin).

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change From Baseline in Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) at 26 Weeks
Least squares (LS) means were calculated using a mixed-effects model for repeated measures (MMRM) analysis with treatment, visit, treatment-by-visit, oral antihyperglycemic medication regimen (sulfonylureas only, biguanides only, or both), and baseline body mass index (BMI) group (<25 or >=25 kilograms per meter squared [kg/m^2]) as fixed effects, baseline HbA1c as a covariate, and participant as a random effect.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) <=6.5% or <7% at 26 Weeks
The percentage of participants achieving HbA1c level less than 7.0% and less than or equal to 6.5% was analyzed with a longitudinal logistic regression model with treatment, visit, treatment-by-visit, oral antihyperglycemic medication regimen (sulfonylureas only, biguanides only, or both), and baseline body mass index (BMI) group (<25 or >=25 kilograms per meter squared [kg/m^2]) as fixed effects, baseline HbA1c as a covariate, and participant as a random effect.
Change From Baseline in Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG) at 26 Weeks
Least squares (LS) means were calculated using a mixed-effects model for repeated measures (MMRM) analysis with treatment, visit, treatment-by-visit, oral antihyperglycemic medication regimen (sulfonylureas only, biguanides only, or both), and baseline body mass index (BMI) group (<25 or >=25 kilograms per meter squared [kg/m^2]) as fixed effects, baseline FBG as a covariate, and participant as a random effect.
Change From Baseline in 8-Point Self-Monitored Blood Glucose (SMBG) at 26 Weeks
Participants were to test and record SMBG concentrations in their study diaries before each meal (breakfast, lunch, and dinner), approximately 2 hours after the start of each meal, at bedtime, and before breakfast the next morning (second pre-morning meal). Least squares (LS) means were calculated using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with treatment, oral antihyperglycemic medication regimen (sulfonylureas only, biguanides only, or both), and baseline body mass index (BMI) group (<25 or >=25 kilograms per meter squared [kg/m^2]) as fixed effects and baseline SMBG as a covariate.
Change From Baseline in Body Weight at 26 Weeks
Least squares (LS) means were calculated using a mixed-effects model for repeated measures (MMRM) analysis with treatment, visit, treatment-by-visit, oral antihyperglycemic medication regimen (sulfonylureas only, biguanides only, or both), and baseline body mass index (BMI) group (<25 or >=25 kilograms per meter squared [kg/m^2]) as fixed effects, baseline body weight as a covariate, and participant as a random effect.
Percentage of Participants With Hypoglycemic Episodes
The percentage of participants with hypoglycemic episodes was calculated by dividing the number of participants with at least one hypoglycemic episode over the 26-week treatment period by the total number of participants analyzed, multiplied by 100%. All classifications of hypoglycemia (documented symptomatic, asymptomatic, severe, nocturnal, non-nocturnal, probable symptomatic, relative, and unspecified) were included, except for episodes of relative hypoglycemia that were not severe. A summary of serious and other non-serious adverse events regardless of causality is located in the Reported Adverse Events module.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this trial is to examine the efficacy and safety of once-weekly LY2189265 (dulaglutide) in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus taking an oral antihyperglycemic medication (OAM).
Detailed Description
Rescue therapy (defined as alternative antihyperglycemic medication use or dose modification of oral antihyperglycemic medication [OAM]) may have been initiated during the planned treatment period if the participant discontinued study drug or met prespecified thresholds for severe, persistent hyperglycemia. Efficacy data, as well as data for hypoglycemic episodes from participants who permanently discontinued study treatment but switched to another diabetes medication and remained in the study, were censored from the point of initiating new treatment onwards.
