Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary end point of the study is the day-to-day variability of FPG level as evaluated by the SD of the plasma glucose concentration determined by SMBG before breakfast during the last week of each 4-week treatment period. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end points include (1) the coefficient of variance for the plasma glucose level determined by SMBG before breakfast during the last week of each 4-week treatment period; (2) the intraday glycemic variability calculated from the seven daily measurements of plasma glucose by SMBG or from FGM data during the last week of each treatment period; (3) the frequency of hypoglycemic events; (4) the duration of hypoglycemia determined by FGM; and (5) the administered basal and bolus insulin dose (the mean for the last week of each treatment period). | — |
