EOS: end of study; HbA1c: glycated hemoglobin; MDI: multiple daily insulin injection; PPPD: per patient per day; SD: standard deviation; STO: standard treatment optimized; TDD: total daily dose; a Cost ($) of diabetes treatment per 1% drop in HbA1c was calculated based on the sample means: WAC costs for all diabetes treatments divided by mean change in HbA1c. Therefore, SD and p-Value were not calculated.
