Current Primary Outcome MeasuresIncidence of Adverse Events (AEs) [Time Frame: The first drug administration through 7 days after the last drug administration, up to 382 days] [Designated as safety issue: Yes]The number of patient with any AEs, patients with severe AE, patients with AEs leading to discontinuation of trial drug, and patients with Hypoglycaemic events
Current Secondary Outcome MeasuresGlycosylated Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) [Time Frame: Baseline and 52 weeks] [Designated as safety issue: No]The change from baseline in HbA1c after 52 weeks of treatment. When the HbA1c after 52 weeks treatment was missing, the value from the measurements at the closest preceding visit replaced the missing value.
