Measure Type Secondary
Measure Title Rate of All, Non-Nocturnal, and Nocturnal Self-Reported Hypoglycemic Episodes (Adjusted for One Year)
Measure Description Rate of self-reported hypoglycemic episodes, all, non-nocturnal, and nocturnal, at Endpoint (LOCF) and overall. Rate is reported as episodes/participant/365 days. Episode = any time participant feels that he/she is experiencing a sign or symptom that is associated with hypoglycemia or has a blood glucose level of ≤70 mg/dL, even if it was not associated with signs, symptoms, or treatment. Overall=any time during the post-randomization visits within the study period. Nocturnal=Any episode that occurs between bedtime and waking. Non-Nocturnal=Any episode that occurs between waking and bedtime.
Time Frame Baseline to Endpoint (LOCF) up to 24 weeks  
Safety Issue Yes  

Population Description
Explanation of how the number of participants for analysis was determined. Includes whether analysis was per protocol, intention to treat, or another method. Also provides relevant details such as imputation technique, as appropriate.
All randomized participants with at least one post-baseline measurement. Intention to Treat (ITT) population.
