Participants by arm
| Arm | Count |
|---|---|
| Inhaled Human Insulin (Exubera®) Pre-prandial inhaled insulin regimen administered three times a day (TID) using Exubera® Inhaler device; insulin packaged as 1 or 3 milligram (mg) dry powder insulin. Initial daily dose determined based on subject's body weight and divided into 3 doses administered prior to major meals. Pre-meal doses modified based on meal size and pre-prandial blood glucose readings. Subjects combined 1 and 3 mg doses before each meal to control post-prandial glycemia in addition to continuing their usual oral (PO) drugs at the pre-study doses unless clinical need justified a dose modification. | 135 |
| Insulin Glargine (Lantus®) Insulin glargine (Lantus®) 10 International Units (IU) injected subcutaneously (SC) once daily (QD) at the same time of day (morning dose recommended) for the duration of the study (26 Weeks) using a pen device where available. Daily dose of insulin glargine modified based on glucose measurements at the discretion of the treating physician. Insulin glargine added initially to subject's usual oral regimen and was to be continued at pre-study doses unless clinical need justified a dose modification. | 122 |
