Other

MeasureTime frameDescription
Confirmed Hypoglycemic EventsDuring the course of the study (82 weeks)Confirmed hypoglycemic events refer to all hypoglycemic events that had a glucose value ≤70 ml/dL or where assistance was required. Symptomatic hypoglycemic events were to be reported as adverse events. Investigator-defined hypoglycaemia adverse events include all events that investigator marked as 'Hypoglycaemic event' in CRFs, regardless of the reported term or blood glucose value. It may include hypoglycemia itself as reported term or any other symptoms that that investigator may have attributed to hypoglycemia (e.g. dizziness, hyperhidrosis, and asthenia).

Confirmed Hypoglycemic Events

Confirmed hypoglycemic events refer to all hypoglycemic events that had a glucose value ≤70 ml/dL or where assistance was required. Symptomatic hypoglycemic events were to be reported as adverse events. Investigator-defined hypoglycaemia adverse events include all events that investigator marked as 'Hypoglycaemic event' in CRFs, regardless of the reported term or blood glucose value. It may include hypoglycemia itself as reported term or any other symptoms that that investigator may have attributed to hypoglycemia (e.g. dizziness, hyperhidrosis, and asthenia).

Time frame: During the course of the study (82 weeks)

Population: Treated set (TS). Treatment assignment as first medication taken.
