Participant Flow
Recruitment Details | |
Pre-assignment Details | At screening visit and during the 4-week run-in phase subjects received subcutaneous insulin regime of 2 to 3 daily doses (QD) of regular insulin-/short-acting insulin analog (lispro or aspart) and 1 or 2 doses QD of intermediate or long-acting insulin (neutral protamine hagedorn [NPH] insulin or Ultralente®) or insulin glargine QD at bedtime. |
Arm/Group Title | Inhaled Insulin (Exubera®) | Subcutaneous Insulin |

Pre-prandial inhalable short-acting insulin (INH) regime (packaged as 1 mg and 3 mg inhalation blister packs) plus a single bedtime dose or 2 daily doses of either Ultralene® or NPH insulin, or insulin glargine once daily (QD) at bedtime. | Subcutaneous (SC) insulin: 2 to 3 daily doses of regular insulin or short-acting insulin analog (lispro or aspart) plus 1 or 2 daily doses of an intermediate to long-acting insulin (NPH insulin or Ultralene®), or insulin glargine QD at bedtime. |
