Abstract

Aims: Demonstrate superiority of insulin glargine (+/- glulisine) strategy versus premixed insulin strategy for percentage of patients reaching HbA1c <7% (<53 mmol/mol) at study end without any documented symptomatic hypoglycemia (bloof glucose [BG] <= 3.1 mmol/L) in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients failing oral agents.
