Population Description
Explanation of how the number of participants for analysis was determined. Includes whether analysis was per protocol, intention to treat, or another method. Also provides relevant details such as imputation technique, as appropriate.
FAS=all subjects who took at least 1 dose of study drug and had at least 1 post-baseline measurement. LOCF imputed missing data with any post-baseline visit. Number of subjects with BMI measurements at Baseline and Week 26: inhaled human insulin n=192, insulin glargine n=183.

Reporting Groups
  Description

Insulin Glargine Insulin glargine, label instruction initiation dose (10 units), and individually adjusted doses, per subject's blood glucose, over the six months study, in addition to oral agents.

Certain Agreements:  
Principal Investigators are NOT employed by the organization sponsoring the study.
There IS an agreement between Principal Investigators and the Sponsor (or its agents) that restricts the PI's rights to discuss or publish trial results after the trial is completed.
The agreement is:
unchecked The only disclosure restriction on the PI is that the sponsor can review results communications prior to public release and can embargo communications regarding trial results for a period that is less than or equal to 60 days. The sponsor cannot require changes to the communication and cannot extend the embargo.
unchecked The only disclosure restriction on the PI is that the sponsor can review results communications prior to public release and can embargo communications regarding trial results for a period that is more than 60 days but less than or equal to 180 days. The sponsor cannot require changes to the communication and cannot extend the embargo.


Limitations and Caveats
Limitations of the study, such as early termination leading to small numbers of participants analyzed and technical problems with measurement leading to unreliable or uninterpretable data
Due to cancellation of the EXUBERA program, the collected Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) data were not summarized, and no statistical analyses were performed.
