E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that LY2605541 is noninferior to insulin glargine for the change in HbA1c from baseline to 52 weeks of treatment in insulin-naïve
patients with T2DM using a noninferiority margin (NIM) of 0.4%. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
Gated:
Secondary gated objectives are to demonstrate that LY2605541 is superior to glargine for:
1. Nocturnal hypoglycemia rate during 52 weeks of treatment
2. Proportion of patients with HbA1c <7.0% at 52 weeks and no nocturnal hypoglycemia during 52 weeks of treatment
3. HbA1c change from baseline after 52 weeks of treatment
4. Proportion of patients with HbA1c <7.0% after 52 weeks of treatment
5. Total hypoglycemia rate during 52 weeks of treatment
6. Fasting serum glucose (FSG) by laboratory measurement after 52 weeks of treatment
Secondary non-gated objectives are listed on pages 19-20 of the protocol. |

Addendum (1.1): Continuous Glucose Monitoring Addendum (2-Sep-2011)
In order to better understand the impact of LY2605541 on glucose metabolism as well as within- and between-patient variability, especially during the nocturnal time period, in patients with type 2 diabetes, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) will be performed in a subpopulation of approximately 189 patients enrolled in study I2R-MC-BIAJ. The primary objective of this addendum is to compare the duration (in minutes) spent with a blood glucose ≤70 mg/dL (in a hypoglycemic state) during the nocturnal period defined as midnight to 06:00 in patients taking LY2605541 versus insulin glargine at 52 weeks.
Pharmacogenetic Evaluations (26 June 2011, see protocol section 10.4.2.1)
Where local regulations allow, a blood sample will be collected for pharmacogenetic analysis. It is a onetime collection, as noted in the Study Schedule. Samples will be stored and analysis may be performed on genetic variants thought to play a role in glucose and insulin regulation, beta cell function, characterization of patients’ responsiveness to LY2605541, or diabetes- related metabolic abnormalities.
Nonpharmacogenetic/Biomarker Evaluation (26 June 2011, see protocol section 10.4.2.2)
Samples will be collected for nonpharmacogenetic biomarker research where local regulations allow. Blood and/or urine samples will be collected at the times specified in the Study Schedule. Samples may be used for research on diabetes progression and/or complications, mechanism of action of LY2605541, patients’ response to LY2605541, in case future analyses are warranted with regard to safety, or in validating diagnostic tools or assay(s) related to diabetes or related metabolic abnormalities or biomarker response to LY2605541.
