Brief Summary:
The primary objective was to demonstrate a difference between two insulin strategies, one targeting postprandial (PP) hyperglycemia and the other targeting fasting and interprandial hyperglycemia, on time until the first combined adjudicated cardiovascular (CV) event (primary outcome defined as CV death, nonfatal myocardial infarction [MI], nonfatal stroke, coronary revascularization, or hospitalized acute coronary syndrome).

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 Acute Myocardial Infarction Drug: Insulin lispro Drug: Human insulin isophane suspension (NPH) Drug: Insulin glargine Drug: Human insulin isophane suspension Drug: Human insulin 30/70 Phase 4

Detailed Description:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of two different treatment strategies on CV outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes while aiming to achieve and maintain HbA1c <7.0% in both groups. Only patients who have recently experienced an acute MI will be considered for participation in this trial.
