Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary outcome: "To demonstrate the superiority of a strategy with insulin glargine in comparison with a strategy including the premixed insulin in term of percentage of patients reaching HbA1c below 7% at the end of the treatment period and who do not experience documented symptomatic hypoglycemia (confirmed by a Plasma Glucose (PG) ≤56 mg/dL (3.1 mmol/L)) over the treatment period, in Type 2 diabetes patients failing lifestyle management and oral agents." Timepoint: 24 weeks

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To assess the effect of insulin glargine in comparison with premixed insulin on Evolution of HbA1c level during the treatment period Timepoint: During the study duration of 24 weeks
