- Change in HbA1c [ Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 16 ]Change from baseline in Glycosylated Haemoglobin after 16 weeks of treatment
- Proportion of subjects reaching HbA1c targets [ Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 16 ]HbA1c <7% or HbA1c ≤6.5%
- Change in FPG [ Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 16 ]Change from baseline in FPG after 16 weeks of treatment
- 9-point SMPG profiles [ Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 16 ]Mean plasma glucose, Postprandial and nocturnal increments, Fluctuation of 9-point SMPG. Plasma glucose measured: before breakfast, 120 minutes after start of breakfast, before lunch, 120 minutes after start of lunch, before dinner,120 minutes after start of dinner, before bedtime, at 4 am and before breakfast.
- Pre-breakfast SMPG [ Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 16 ]Mean plasma glucose, Within-subject variability of pre-breakfast SMPG.
- Titration target [ Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 16 ]Proportion of subjects and time reaching titration targets
- Numbers of hypoglycaemic episodes according to 2017 ADA/EASD classfication [ Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 16 ]Classification of hypoglycaemia: Level 1(glucose level below 3.9 mmol/L), Level 2(glucose level below 3.0 mmol/L) and Level 3(Severe hypoglycemia, denotes severe cognitive impairment requiring external assistance for recovery).
- Numbers of injection site reactions [ Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 16 ]The injection site reactions was assessed during the treatment period of 16 weeks.
- Frequency and severity of adverse events [ Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 16 + 14 days follow-up ]Severity assessed by investigator. Mild: no or transient symptoms, no interference with subject's daily activities, no or minimal medical treatment. Moderate: marked symptoms, interference with subject's daily activities,and medical treatment for alleviation without grave or permanent injury to the subject. . Severe: considerable interference with subject's daily activities, and intensive treatment and intervention needed.
- Anti-drug Antibodies: Anti-INS068 Antibodies [ Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 16+14 days follow-up ]Number of Participants Positive or Negative for Anti-INS068 Antibodies were reported.
- Changes in Body Weight [ Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 16 ]Change of body weight was evaluated from Week 0 to Week 16
- Changes in Body Mass Index [ Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 16 ]Change of Body Mass Index was evaluated from Week 0 to Week 16
- Change in Health Related Quality of Life Questionnaire (SF -36) [ Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 16 ]Change from baseline in scores of Health-Related Quality of Life Questionnaire after 16 weeks of treatment. The questionnaire contains 36 items across 8 domains and 2 summary scores. Score range: 0 (worst score) to 100 (best score)
- Serum INS068 concentration [ Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 16 ]To evaluate PK of INS068
