Efficacy Assessment of Insulin Glargine Versus LiraglutidE After Oral Agent Failure

Primary objective:

To demonstrate the superiority of insulin glargine over liraglutide in terms of percentage
of patients reaching a Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) < 7% at the end of the comparative
period (24 weeks) in Type 2 diabetic patients failing lifestyle management and oral agents

Secondary objectives of the comparative period (24 weeks):

>To assess the effect of insulin glargine in comparison with liraglutide on:

- HbA1c level

- Percentage of patients whose HbA1c has decreased but remains >= 7% at the end of the
comparative period

- Percentage of patients whose HbA1c has increased at the end of the comparative period

- Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG)

- 7-point Plasma Glucose (PG) profiles

- Hypoglycemia occurrence

- Body weight

- Adverse events

Objectives of the extension period (24 weeks):

>To assess the effect of insulin glargine in patients not adequately controlled with
liraglutide on:

- HbA1c level

- FPG

- 7-point PG profiles

- Hypoglycemia occurrence

- Body weight

- Adverse events
