Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Treatment Emergent Severe or BG Confirmed Symptomatic Hypoglycaemic Episodes During the Maintenance PeriodAfter 16 weeks of treatment, in each treatment period (Week 16-32 and Week 48-64)
Severe or blood glucose (BG) confirmed symptomatic hypoglycaemic episodes were defined as episodes that were severe and/or BG confirmed by a plasma glucose value of \<56 mg/dL (3.1 mmol/L), with symptoms consistent with hypoglycaemia. Treatment emergent hypoglycaemic episode was defined as an event with onset date on or after the first day of exposure to randomised treatment and no later than the last day of randomised treatment.
SecondaryNumber of Treatment Emergent Severe or BG Confirmed Symptomatic Nocturnal Hypoglycaemic Episode During the Maintenance PeriodAfter 16 weeks of treatment, in each treatment period (Week 16-32 and Week 48-64)
Severe or BG confirmed symptomatic nocturnal hypoglycaemic episodes were defined as episodes that were severe and/or BG confirmed by a plasma glucose value of \<56 mg/dL (3.1 mmol/L), with symptoms consistent with hypoglycaemia and with time of onset between 00:01 and 05.59 a.m., both inclusive. Treatment emergent hypoglycaemic episode was defined as an event with onset date on or after the first day of exposure to randomised treatment and no later than the last day of randomised treatment.
SecondaryProportion of Subjects With One or More Severe Hypoglycaemic Episodes During the Maintenance PeriodAfter 16 weeks of treatment, in each treatment period (Week 16-32 and Week 48-64)
Percentage of subjects who experienced one or more severe hypoglycaemic episodes during the maintenance period. Severe hypoglycaemia (according to the American Diabetes Association 2013 definition): A hypoglycaemic episode requiring assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or take other corrective actions. Plasma glucose values may not be available during an event, but neurological recovery following the return of plasma glucose to normal is considered sufficient evidence that the event was induced by a low plasma glucose concentration.
SecondaryIncidence of Treatment Emergent Adverse EventsDuring 32 weeks of treatment for each treatment periodTreatment emergent adverse event was defined as an event with onset date on or after the first day of exposure to randomised treatment and no later than the last day of randomised treatment.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in HbA1c (Glycosylated Haemoglobin)Week 32, Week 64
Change from baseline in HbA1c (glycosylated haemoglobin) at week 32 (treatment period 1) and at week 64 (treatment period 2). Week 32 HbA1c value was considered as baseline for calculating change from baseline in HbA1c at week 64.
SecondaryFPG (Fasting Plasma Glucose)week 32, week 64Fasting plasma glucose values at week 32 and week 64.
