Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Overview of Adverse Event Profile (Treatment Emergent Adverse Events) of the One-Step and Two-Step Titration Arms Assessed Through Adverse Events Collection and Vital Signs, Electrocardiogram (ECG) and Laboratory Monitoring
Overview of adverse event profile is reported in terms of percentage of patients with treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) during the 24-week treatment period: any TEAE; any serious TEAE; any TEAE leading to death; and any TEAE leading to permanent treatment discontinuation.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Overview of Adverse Event Profile (Treatment Emergent Adverse Events) of All Patients During On-Treatment Period Assessed Through Adverse Events Collection and Vital Signs, ECG and Laboratory Monitoring
Overview of adverse event profile is reported in terms of percentage of patients with TEAEs during the on-treatment period: any TEAE; any serious TEAE; any TEAE leading to death; any TEAE leading to permanent treatment discontinuation. The on-treatment period was the time from the first dose of study drug up to 3 days after the last dose at Week 76.

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 52 and 76
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 Body Weight for All Patients at Week 52 and 76
Change was calculated by subtracting baseline value from value at week of assessment (Week 52/Week 76). 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 Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) for All Patients at Week 52 and 76
Change was calculated by subtracting baseline value from value at week of assessment (Week 52/Week 76). 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.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the benefits and risks of lixisenatide (AVE0010) used as 2-step initiation regimen and 1-step initiation regimen in Japan, over a period of 24 weeks of treatment, followed by an extension up to Week 76. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of lixisenatide once daily treatment in monotherapy at Week 24 by a descriptive comparison of a 1-step initiation and a 2-step initiation regimen in patients with type 2 diabetes in Japan. The secondary objectives are to assess the overall safety of lixisenatide once daily treatment in monotherapy at Week 52 and Week 76; to assess the effects of lixisenatide on glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) reduction at Week 52 and Week 76, body weight, and fasting plasma glucose (FPG); to assess pharmacokinetics (PK) and anti-lixisenatide antibody development.
