Brief Summary:

Primary Objective:

- To assess the effects on glycemic control of lixisenatide in comparison to placebo as an add-on treatment to basal insulin with or without metformin in terms of HbA1c reduction over a period of 24 weeks in insufficiently controlled type 2 diabetic patients.

Secondary Objectives:

  • To assess the effects of lixisenatide over 24 weeks on :

    • percentage of patients reaching HbA1c<7% or ≤6.5%,
    • 2-hour postprandial plasma glucose (PPG) and plasma glucose (PG) excursions during standardized meal challenge test,
    • fasting plasma glucose (FPG),
    • change in 7-point self-monitored plasma glucose (SMPG) profile),
    • body weight,
    • change in daily basal insulin dose.
  • To assess lixisenatide safety and tolerability.
  • To assess anti-lixisenatide antibody development.
