A Research Study to Compare Two Types of Insulin: Insulin 287 and Insulin Glargine in People With Type 2 Diabetes Who Have Not Used Insulin Before

Change in HbA1c (Glycated Haemoglobin)

Estimated mean change in HbA1c from baseline (week 0, visit 2) to end of treatment (week 16, visit 18) is presented. The endpoint was evaluated based on the data from the on-treatment without rescue medication observation period, which was the time period when a participant was considered exposed to trial product, excluding any period after initiation of a non-randomised insulin treatment (rescue medication).

Time frame: From baseline week 0 (visit 2) to week 16 (visit 18)

Change in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG)

Estimated mean change in FPG from baseline (week 0, visit 2) to end of treatment (week 16, visit 18) is presented. The endpoint was evaluated based on the data from the on-treatment without rescue medication observation period, which was the time period when a participant was considered exposed to trial product, excluding any period after initiation of a non-randomised insulin treatment (rescue medication).

Time frame: From baseline week 0 (visit 2) to week 16 (visit 18)

Change in Body Weight

Estimated mean change in body weight from baseline (week 0, visit 2) to end of treatment (week 16, visit 18) is presented. The endpoint was evaluated based on the data from the on-treatment without rescue medication observation period, which was the time period when a participant was considered exposed to trial product, excluding any period after initiation of a non-randomised insulin treatment (rescue medication).

Time frame: From baseline week 0 (visit 2) to week 16 (visit 18)

Weekly Insulin Dose

Estimated mean average weekly insulin dose during the last 2 weeks of treatment is presented. The endpoint was evaluated based on the data from the on-treatment without rescue medication observation period, which was the time period when a participant was considered exposed to trial product, excluding any period after initiation of a non-randomised insulin treatment (rescue medication).

Time frame: During the last 2 weeks of treatment (week 15 and 16)

Number of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

A TEAE was defined as an event that had onset date (or increase in severity) during the on-treatment observation period. The on-treatment observation period was the time period from first dose of trial product (week 0, visit 2) until the follow-up visit (week 21, visit 20) or the last date on trial product + 5 weeks for once daily insulin and +6 weeks for once weekly insulin.

Time frame: From baseline week 0 (visit 2) to week 21 (visit 20)

Number of Severe Hypoglycaemic Episodes (Level 3)

Severe hypoglycaemic episodes (level 3) were defined as episodes that were associated with severe cognitive impairment requiring external assistance for recovery. Number of severe hypoglycaemic episodes that occurred from baseline (week 0, visit 2) to end of treatment (week 16, visit 18) are presented.

Time frame: From baseline week 0 (visit 2) to week 16 (visit 18)

Number of Clinically Significant Hypoglycaemic Episodes (Level 2) (Below 3.0 mmol/L (54 Milligrams Per Deciliter [mg/dL]), Confirmed by Blood Glucose (BG) Meter) or Severe Hypoglycaemic Episodes (Level 3)

Clinically significant hypoglycaemic episodes (level 2) were defined as episodes that were sufficiently low to indicate serious, clinically important hypoglycaemia with plasma glucose value of less than (\<) 3.0 mmol/L (54 mg/dL). Severe hypoglycaemic episodes (level 3) were defined as episodes that were associated with severe cognitive impairment requiring external assistance for recovery. Number of clinically significant hypoglycaemic episodes (level 2), confirmed by blood glucose (BG) meter or severe hypoglycaemic episodes (level 3) that occured from baseline (week 0, visit 2) to end of treatment (week 16, visit 18) are presented.

Time frame: From baseline week 0 (visit 2) to week 16 (visit 18)

Number of Hypoglycaemic Alert Episodes (Level 1) (Greater Than or Equal to 3.0 and Below 3.9 mmol/L (Greater Than or Equal to 54 and Below 70 mg/dL), Confirmed by Blood Glucose (BG) Meter)

Hypoglycaemia alert value (level 1) was defined as episodes that were sufficiently low for treatment with fast-acting carbohydrate and dose adjustment of glucose-lowering therapy with plasma glucose value of equal to or above (\>=) 3.0 and \< 3.9 mmol/L (\>= 54 and \< 70 mg/dL) confirmed by BG meter. Number of hypoglycaemic alert episodes (level 1) that occured from baseline (week 0, visit 2) to end of treatment (week 16, visit 18) are presented.

Time frame: From baseline week 0 (visit 2) to week 16 (visit 18)
