an administration method study of human regular u-500 insulin (ly041001) in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus

Conditions: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Summary: the main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the study drug known as human regular u-500 insulin (u-500r) administered by continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (csii) versus multiple daily injections (mdi) in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
