Brief summary

Primary Objective: • To evaluate equivalence of Gan & Lee Insulin Glargine Injection and Lantus® in terms of immunogenicity Secondary Objective: Immunogenicity: • To evaluate the percentage of subjects with negative anti-insulin antibodies (AIA) at baseline who develop confirmed positive AIA up to Week 26, the percentage of subjects with at least a 4-fold increase in titers compared to baseline value, mean change from baseline in AIA titers between treatment groups, the percentage of subjects with confirmed positive AIA who develop any anti-insulin neutralizing antibodies up to visit Week 26, and the percentage of subjects in each treatment group with confirmed positive AIA up to visit Week 26 Safety: • To evaluate the safety of Gan & Lee Insulin Glargine Injection in comparison with that of Lantus® Efficacy: • To evaluate the efficacy of Gan & Lee Insulin Glargine Injection in comparison with that of Lantus®

Inclusion criteria

1. Male or nonpregnant, nonlactating female subjects between the ages of 18 and 75 years, inclusive. 2. Ability to provide written, personally signed, and dated informed consent to participate in the study, in accordance with the ICH GCP Guideline E6 and all applicable regulations, before initiating any study related procedures. 3. Ability to understand and fully comply with all study procedures and restrictions. 4. Subjects with a confirmed diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus who meet one of the following: 1. If insulin-naïve, subjects should have been on at least 2 approved OAMs for at least 12 weeks before screening, and the clinician has decided to add insulin therapy. 2. If already being treated with a basal and/or bolus insulin, subjects should have been treated with insulin for at least 6 months in addition to at least 1 approved OAM, and must not have changed the type or brand of insulin within 6 months prior to screening. 5. HbA1c values as follows: 1. If insulin-naïve, HbA1c ≤ 11.0%. 2. If previously on a basal insulin regimen, HbA1c ≥ 7.0% and ≤ 11.0%. 6. Body mass index (BMI) ≤ 45 kg/m2. 7. Adherence to a prudent diet and exercise regimen recommended by the medical provider, and willingness to maintain these consistently for the duration of the study. 8. Concomitant medications are allowed, provided that no significant dosing changes are anticipated during the study (see the

Outcome results

Primary

Treatment-induced Anti-Insulin Antibody (TI-AIA) is the Primary Endpoint

Subjects were classified as experiencing a TI-AIA or not. A TI-AIA is defined as a subject experiencing a newly confirmed positive AIA status, if they were negative at baseline or a 4-fold increase in their titer values if they were positive. The primary outcome measure is summarized as the percent of subjects experiencing a TI-AIA in the group.

Time frame: Baseline to Week 26

Population: The Safety Analysis Set (SS) was comprised of all subjects whose treatment assignment was randomly assigned who received any of the study treatment, even a partial dose, and had non-missing values.
