    Summary
    After insulin optimization during run-in, lixisenatide was superior to placebo in mean change from baseline (7.9% [standard deviation {s.d.}, 0.66] and 7.9% [0.70], respectively) to week 24 in HbA1c (least squares mean [standard error {s.e.}] change -0.62% [0.09] vs -0.11% [0.09]; P < .0001, respect…
