Clinical Trial Summary

To compare the frequency of severe hypoglycemia events for 5 dosing algorithms of Lantus®, each of varying intensity and defined by their end-of -study target for self monitored plasma glucose(SMPG), in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus, with inadequate glycemic control (A1C greater than or equal to 7.0%) on oral antidiabetic drug therapy(OAD).

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Cardiac status New York Heart Association (NYHA) III-IV (Appendix A).

2. For subjects treated with metformin (Glucophager, Glucophage XRr, Glucovancer, Metaglipr , or Avandametr) plus a serum creatinine greater than 1.5 mg/dL (133 µmol/L) for males or greater than 1.4 mg/dL (124 µmoL) for females, the inability or unwillingness to discontinue these medications, and to remain off them through the entire study.

3. For subjects on thiazolidinediones, the inability or unwillingness to discontinue these medications and to remain off them through the entire study.

4. Planned pregnancy, pregnancy, or lactation.

5. Serum creatinine greater than 3.0 mg/dL (266 µmol/L).

6. Serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) greater than 2.5 x the upper limit of normal range.

7. Any current malignancy or cancer within the past 5 years (except adequately treated basal cell carcinoma or cervical carcinoma in situ).

8. Diagnosis of dementia or mental condition rendering the subject unable to understand the nature, scope, and possible consequences of the study.

9. Hypersensitivity to Lantus® insulin or any of its components.

10. Any disease or condition, including the abuse of illicit drugs, prescription medicines, or alcohol that, in opinion of the sponsor/investigator, may interfere with the completion of the study.

11. Current (last 2 months) insulin therapy.

12. With the exception of thiazolidinediones (for all potential subjects) and for subjects who are taking metformin and have an exclusionary creatinine level, the ability or unwillingness to continue pre-study anti-hyperglycemia agents at pre-study dosages through the entire study.
