Descriptive Information

• Brief Title: Effectiveness and Safety of Treatment of Insulin Glargine in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Following Glucagon-like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) Failure
• Official Title: A Multicenter, Open-label, Single-arm, 24 Week Phase IV Study Evaluating the Effectiveness and Safety of Treatment of Insulin Glargine in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Following Glucagon-like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) Failure

Brief Summary

Primary Objective:

• To assess the efficacy of insulin glargine as measured by changes of HbA1c levels from baseline in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients following GLP-1 failure.

Secondary Objective:

• To determine the change in glycemic control, safety, and treatment satisfaction in insulin glargine use in patients following GLP-1 failure.

• Detailed Description: 1-2 weeks screening period, 24 weeks treatment period, 1 week follow-up period
• Study Type: Interventional
• Study Phase: Phase 4
• Study Design: Allocation: N/A; Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment; Masking: None (Open Label); Primary Purpose: Treatment
• Condition: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Intervention

Drug: INSULIN GLARGINE HOE 901

Pharmaceutical form:solution Route of administration: subcutaneous

Study Arms

Experimental: insulin glargine

Insulin glargine will be administered once a day, in the morning, at initial dose of 4 units/day. Titration of insulin dose will be performed referred with the median fasting plasma glucose value for the last 3 consecutive days according to the titration algorithm

Intervention: Drug: INSULIN GLARGINE HOE 901
