Participant Flow

Of 455 participants randomized, 402 received treatment and completed the 24-week phase. Two participants were mistakenly identified as not completing the short-term (ST) treatment period, although they did. The discrepancy was identified after the ST phase database lock. In reality, 404 completed the ST phase.

Population: Randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of double-blind study medication. Participants must also have had both a baseline and at least 1 postrandomization measurement in the 24-week period.

Based on information recorded in the participant's daily diary. The MTDDI was calculated at every visit using the values patients recorded since the last regularly scheduled visit (minimum of 80% of days with a value). At every visit, the MTDDI was compared with the participant's baseline MTDDI (measured during a 4-week lead-in period) to identify any changes in insulin use at that visit compared with insulin use at baseline.

Population: All participants who received at least 1 dose of double-blind study medication.

An AE is any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a preexisting medical condition that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An SAE is any untoward medical event that at any dose: results in death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or drug dependency or abuse; is life-threatening, an important medical event, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect; requires inpatient hospitalization; or prolongs existing hospitalization. Treatment-related=possibly, probably, or certainly related to and of unknown relationship to study treatment.

Timeframe: Baseline and during and up to 14 days after last dose of study drug (in Week 52)

Population: All participants who received at least 1 dose of double-blind study medication.

Marked abnormality=a laboratory value lying outside the predefined criteria and more extreme (farther from the limit)on-treatment than at baseline. ULN=upper limit of normal; LLN=lower limit of normal; prx=pre-RX=pretreatment. Criteria 1: if prx=0 use \>=2, if prx=0.5 or 1 use \>=3, if prx=2 use 4.
