5. Study Description
Brief Summary
Primary Objective:
To test the hypothesis that basal insulin based treatment (G+) is noninferior to twice-daily premixed insulin (PM-2) in term of hemoglobin A1c (glycosylated hemoglobin, HbA1c) reduction from baseline to end of study. The test for superiority can be done if noninferiority is achieved.
Secondary Objectives:
To assess efficacy in terms of percentage of patients achieving HbA1c <7% and HbA1c <7% without hypoglycemia.
To assess efficacy in terms of percentage of patients achieving fasting plasma glucose (FPG) <7 mmol/L and FPG <7 mmol/L without hypoglycemia.
To assess safety in term of occurrence of moderate/severe hypoglycemia.
To assess daily blood glucose (BG) variation.
To assess patient satisfaction.
Detailed Description
The duration of study is approximately 21 months. Each patient will be followed for approximately 27 weeks from screening visit to end-of-study
