Arm/Group Title LY2963016 Lantus®
Hide Arm/Group Description Insulin naive participants started on 10 units (U) LY2963016 given subcutaneously (SC) once a day (QD) for 24 weeks. Participants-driven titration was supervised by investigators through the course of the study to maintain the fasting blood glucose (FBG) ≤ 100 milligram per deciliter (mg/dL) (5.6 millimoles per litre [mmol/L]) while avoiding hypoglycemia. Participants were allowed to continue oral antihyperglycemic medication (OAM). Insulin naive participants started on 10 U Lantus® given SC QD for 24 weeks. Participants-driven titration was supervised by investigators through the course of the study to maintain the FBG ≤100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L) while avoiding hypoglycemia. Participants were allowed to continue oral OAM.

Title Insulin Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (ITSQ)
Hide Description ITSQ is a validated instrument containing 22 items that assess treatment satisfaction for participants with diabetes and on insulin. Items divided into 5 domains of satisfaction: Inconvenience of Regimen [(IR) 5 items: domain scores range (DSR) 5-35], Lifestyle Flexibility [(LF) 3 items: DSR 3-21], Glycemic Control [(GC) 3 items: DSR 3-21], Hypoglycemic Control [(HC) 5 items: DSR 5-35], Insulin Delivery Device [(IDD) 6 items: DSR 6-42]. All items measured on a 7-point scale: 1 (no bother at all) to 7 (a tremendous bother), with lower scores reflecting better outcomes. ITSQ Total Overall Raw Scores range from 22-154. Both raw domain and overall scores are transformed on a scale of 0-100, where transformed score=100*[(7-mean raw score)/6]. Higher scores indicate better treatment satisfaction. LS mean was calculated by MMRM with baseline, insulin secretagogues at study entry, baseline HbA1c, treatment, time and treatment*time in the model.

Hide Description Number of participants with detectable anti-glargine antibodies were reported.
Time Frame Baseline through 24 weeks
Hide Outcome Measure Data
Hide Analysis Population Description
All randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug. Only participants with detected insulin antibody levels at baseline and at least one non-missing post-baseline were included in analysis.
Arm/Group Title LY2963016 Lantus®
Hide Arm/Group Description:
Insulin naive participants started on 10 U LY2963016 given SC QD for 24 weeks. Participants-driven titration was supervised by investigators through the course of the study to maintain the FBG ≤100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L) while avoiding hypoglycemia. Participants were allowed to continue OAM.

12.Secondary Outcome
Title Rate of Total Symptomatic and Nocturnal Hypoglycemia Events (Adjusted by 1 Year)
Hide Description Hypoglycemic episodes are defined as events that are associated with reported signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia and/or documented blood glucose (BG) concentrations of ≤70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L). The overall yearly rates (events/participant/year) of those hypoglycemic events, calculated as, for each participant, the number of episodes times 365.25 and then divided by the participants treatment duration, will be summarized, and analyzed by a negative-binomial regression model with treatment as fixed effects and log of (participant's treatment duration/365.25) as an offset variable. A nocturnal hypoglycemic event is defined as any total hypoglycemia event that occurred between bedtime and waking.
Time Frame Baseline through 24 weeks
Hide Outcome Measure Data
Hide Analysis Population Description
All randomized participants who received at least one dose of study drug and had evaluable baseline and at least one non-missing post-baseline hypoglycemic event.
