Recruitment details
Enrollment of patients started on October 26, 2010 and the study was completed on May 7, 2012. Patients were screened in 60 centers in the United States of America, of which 59 centers randomized patients.
Pre-assignment details
A total 623 patients were screened of whom 405 insulin naïve patients were randomized for the crossover phase. The most common reason for non randomization was glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) value out of range at the screening visit as defined per protocol.
