Each item is scored on a scale from 1 to either 2, 3, 5, or 6; each item score is then converted to a scale of 0-100, representing the percentage of total possible score achieved and with higher scores indicating a higher health status; items on the same scale are then averaged to obtain the 8 scale scores. Physical component summary (PCS) includes domains 1-4 and mental component summary (MCS) includes domains 5-8. Higher PCS and MCS scores on a scale of 0-100 indicate a higher health status.	Week 0, week 30
Secondary	Change in Scores for Selected Patient Reported Outcomes: Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (DTSQ): Treatment Satisfaction Score (Sum of 6 of 8 Items) and the 8 Items Separately	Change from baseline (week 0) in PRO questionnaire, DTSQ was evaluated at week 30. Results are based on the 'on-treatment without rescue medication' observation period. The DTSQ measures satisfaction with diabetes treatment. The DTSQ consists of 8 items evaluating 6 aspects of treatment satisfaction and 2 perceived recent event rates of hyperglycemia/hypoglycemia. Each item is scored on a 7- point Likert scale ranging from 0 (very dissatisfied) to 6 (very satisfied). Items evaluating 6 aspects (items 3-8) of treatment satisfaction are summed to produce a total treatment satisfaction score; DTSQ status total scores range from 0-36, with higher scores indicating greater satisfaction; the perceived frequency of hyperglycemia/hypoglycemia items are scored separately, with lower scores indicating better perceived blood glucose control.
