A "Real World" Trial to Determine Efficacy and Health Outcomes of Toujeo Compared to "Standard of Care" Basal Insulin in Patients Already Using Basal Insulin

Summary

Primary Objective: To demonstrate noninferiority of Toujeo versus "standard of care" basal insulin therapy as measured by glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) change Secondary Objectives: * To demonstrate superiority of Toujeo versus "standard of care" basal insulin if non-inferiority criterion is met, measured by HbA1c change. * To compare Toujeo to other "standard of care" basal insulin in terms of patient persistence with assigned basal insulin therapy with or without intensification. * Risk of hypoglycemia including documented, symptomatic hypoglycemia (≤70 mg/dL) or severe (according to ADA Working Group). * Change in fasting plasma glucose (FPG). * Change in body weight. * Differences in patient reported outcomes measured by Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire Status and Change versions (DTSQs and DTSQc). * Change in hypoglycemic control subscale (HCS). * Healthcare resource utilization including hospitalizations and emergency department or other health care provider visits and healthcare costs.
