Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Conditions
Brief summary
Primary Objective: \- To assess the effects on glycemic control of lixisenatide in comparison to placebo as an add-on treatment to basal insulin with or without metformin in terms of HbA1c reduction over a period of 24 weeks in insufficiently controlled type 2 diabetic patients. Secondary Objectives: * To assess the effects of lixisenatide over 24 weeks on : * percentage of patients reaching HbA1c\<7% or ≤6.5%, * 2-hour postprandial plasma glucose (PPG) and plasma glucose (PG) excursions during standardized meal challenge test, * fasting plasma glucose (FPG), * change in 7-point self-monitored plasma glucose (SMPG) profile), * body weight, * change in daily basal insulin dose. * To assess lixisenatide safety and tolerability. * To assess anti-lixisenatide antibody development.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
: \- Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) diagnosed for at least 1 year at the time of the screening visit insufficiently controlled with basal insulin± metformin.
Exclusion criteria
At screening: * Age \< legal age of adulthood. * HbA1c\<7% or \>10.5%. * Basal insulin treatment has not been at a stable regimen for at least 3 months and at a stable dose (± 20%) of at least 15 U/day for at least 2 months prior to screening visit. * If metformin is given, metformin treatment has not been at a stable dose of at least 1.0 g/day for at least 3 months prior to screening visit. * History of hypoglycemia unawareness. * Body Mass Index (BMI) ≤20 kg/m². * Use of other oral or injectable glucose-lowering agents other than basal insulin or metformin within 3 months prior to the time of screening. The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a patient's potential participation in a clinical trial.
