Summary

Primary objective:

The primary objective of this trial is:

* To evaluate the efficacy of initiating Lantus in combination with oral antidiabetics drugs compared to oral antidiabetic treatment optimised by enhancing hygienic and dietary measures in type 2 diabetics whose blood glucose control is acceptable but not optimal on maximum oral treatment, based on the number of patients achieving a HbA1c value \< 7% at the end of treatment.

Secondary objectives:

The secondary objectives of this trial are to compare between the two treatment groups:

* The variation in HbA1c between baseline and end of trial.
* The frequency of episodes of symptomatic hypoglycaemia (diurnal and nocturnal), severe hypoglycaemia (diurnal and nocturnal) and asymptomatic hypoglycaemia.
* Mean blood glucose levels at different times of the day.
* The variation in weight and lipid in each group between baseline and end of trial.
* The incidence of adverse events.
