Treatment Arms

ArmTypeDescription
Combination insulin glargine and sitagliptinEXPERIMENTALInsulin glargine administered once a day, in the evening, at dinner or at bedtime. Starting dose: - last dose administered in the core study for patients previously treated with insulin glargine, - 0.2 U/Kg of body weight for patients previously treated with sitagliptin. Monitoring of blood glucose and titration: all patients, irrespective of their previous treatment group in the core study were empowered to adjust their insulin doses, under strict investigator's supervision. The goal was to achieve through a force titration 70 \< Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) ≤ 100 mg/dL (3.9 \<FPG ≤ 5.5 mmol/L). Sitagliptin: stable dose of 100 mg once a day administered with or without food.
