Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: -Age 10.5% (at screening visit). -Body mass index (BMI) 40 kg/m^2. -History of T2DM for less than 1 year before screening. -Less than 6 months before screening on OADs treatment and GLP-1 receptor agonist (if taken). -Current or previous insulin use except for a maximum of 8 consecutive days or totally 15 days (eg, acute illness, surgery) during the last year prior to screening. -Initiation of new glucose-lowering medications and/or weight loss drug in the last 3 months before screening visit. -Patient receiving only noninsulin antihyperglycemic drugs not approved for combination with insulin according to local labelling/local treatment guideline. -History of hypoglycemia unawareness or repeated episodes of severe hypoglycemia or metabolic acidosis, including hospitalization for diabetic ketoacidosis during the last 12 months prior to screening. -Unstable proliferative diabetic retinopathy or any other rapidly progressive diabetic retinopathy or macular edema likely to require treatment (eg, laser, surgical treatment, or injectable drugs) during the study period. -End stage renal disease. -Any acute or chronic condition that in the opinion of Investigator would affect the patient safety, compliance, or study results. -Any contraindication to use of Toujeo® or Tresiba® as defined in the national product label, hypersensitivity to Toujeo® or Tresiba® active ingredients or one of the excipients. -Pregnant or breast-feeding women

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To demonstrate the noninferiority in the efficacy of Toujeo® to Tresiba® in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) change.;Secondary Objective: -To assess the effects of the insulin Toujeo® in comparison with insulin Tresiba® on: -Change in Fasting plasma glucose (FPG); -Change in Fasting self-monitored plasma glucose (SMPG) and 4-point SMPG and 8-point SMPG profile; -Percentage of patients reaching HbA1c targets <7% or =6.5%; -Percentage of patients reaching HbA1c targets <7% or =6.5% without severe and/or confirmed hypoglycemia -Percentage of patients requiring rescue therapy. -To assess the frequency of occurrence and diurnal distribution of hypoglycemia by American Diabetes Association (ADA) category of hypoglycemia. -To assess the safety in each treatment group. -To assess the treatment effects in each treatment group on Patient Reported Outcomes (PRO). ;Primary end point(s): Change from baseline in HbA1c;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Baseline to Week 24
