Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the study is to assess if the addition of vildagliptin as add-on therapy improves glucose variability in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients inadequately controlled with insulin, with special emphasis in hypoglycemic episodes measured by continuous glucose monitoring.
