Summary

Primary Objective:

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate non-inferiority of a patient-managed titration algorithm (including blood glucose monitoring) for the addition of a single dose of insulin glulisine at breakfast in Canadian patients with inadequately controlled T2DM after optimization of basal insulin, compared with an HCP-managed titration algorithm. The primary endpoint for assessment of this objective is the percent of patients reaching a target HbA1c \<=7.0% without severe hypoglycemia at the end of the study.

Secondary Objective:

Secondary objectives of the study are to compare the effect of the two different insulin glulisine titration algorithms (patient-managed versus HCP-managed) on the following:

* change in HbA1c, FG, and 7-point glucose profile at Week 24 and Week 36
* satisfaction with treatment (DTSQc for patient and questionnaire for HCP) at Week 36
* change in weight at Week 24 and Week 36
* incidence of hypoglycemia
* insulin doses
* resource utilization (rural/urban, blood glucose meter test strips, lancets, HCP visits, telephone calls, and hospitalizations)
* adherence with the patient-managed monitoring algorithm
