Summary

This 24-week study is a safety and efficacy comparison of MK-1293 and Lantus™ in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The primary hypothesis is that after 24 weeks, the mean change in hemoglobin A1c (A1C) from baseline is non-inferior (with margin of 0.4%) in participants treated with MK-1293 compared with that in participants treated with Lantus™.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

MK-1293

MK-1293 (insulin glargine) 100 units/mL administered subcutaneously once daily for 24 weeks. Participants not taking insulin at study entry will initiate MK-1293 at 10 units daily. Participants taking insulin will initiate MK-1293 at an appropriate dose based on prior insulin dosing. After initiation, the dose will be titrated to the suggested target for fasting finger stick glucose. MK-1293 dosing once daily at times other than bedtime will be permitted for participants with a previously established dosing time.

DRUG

Lantus™

Lantus™ (insulin glargine \[rDNA origin\]) 100 units/mL administered subcutaneously once daily for 24 weeks. Participants not taking insulin at study entry will initiate Lantus™ at 10 units daily. Participants taking insulin will initiate Lantus™ at an appropriate dose based on prior insulin dosing. After initiation, the dose will be titrated to the suggested target for fasting finger stick glucose. Lantus™ dosing once daily at times other than bedtime will be permitted for participants with a previously established dosing time.

DRUG

Prandial insulin

Participants taking prandial insulin will continue their current prandial insulin regimen during the insulin glargine titration. After the insulin glargine titration phase, the prandial insulin may be adjusted if the investigator determines it to be necessary for glucose control.
