Change From Baseline in HbA1cBaseline, Week 32HbA1c is the glycosylated fraction of haemoglobin A. HbA1c is measured to identify average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time. Change from baseline in HbA1c was analysed by mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) including fixed effects of treatment, stratification factors (country, BMI group \[\> 30 or ≤ 30\], sulfonylureas use at study entry), visit and treatment by visit interaction and baseline HbA1c as the covariate.

AUC was calculated for individual participants using the participant's Week 32 LY3209590 dose amount and the participant's estimated clearance value.
Rate of Total Documented Symptomatic HypoglycemiaBaseline through week 32The hypoglycemia events were defined by participant reported events with glucose ≤54 mg/dL (3.0 millimole per liter (mmol/L)).

HbA1c is the glycosylated fraction of haemoglobin A. HbA1c is measured to identify average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time. Change from baseline in HbA1c was analysed by mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) including fixed effects of treatment, stratification factors (country, BMI group \[\> 30 or ≤ 30\], sulfonylureas use at study entry), visit and treatment by visit interaction and baseline HbA1c as the covariate.

Time frame: Baseline, Week 32

Population: The data after using rescue medication or stopping study medication were censored. Participants with non-missing baseline value and at least one post baseline value of response were included.
