Title: Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes (ACCORD)
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to prevent major cardiovascular events (heart attack, stroke, or cardiovascular death) in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus using intensive glycemic control, intensive blood pressure control, and multiple lipid management.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease secondary to diabetic nephropathy in stages 3 and 4 (moderate and severe nephropathy, corresponding to glomerular filtration rate of 15-59 ml/min/1.73m²) will be included in the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients with systemic neoplasias,
* HIV, chronic kidney disease or nephropathy from other etiologies,
* severe psychiatric disorders
* pregnant women.
B: Inclusion criteria:

1. Diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus prior to informed consent
2. Male or female patients on diet and exercise regimen who are drug naive or pre treated with any background therapy. Antidiabetic therapy has to be unchanged for 12 weeks prior to randomization.
3. Glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) of \>= 7.0% and \<=10% for patients on background therapy or HbA1c \>= 7.0% and \<= 9.0% for drug naive patients
4. Age \>= 18 years
5. Body Mass index \<= 45 at Visit 1
6. Signed and dated informed consent
7. High cardiovascular risk

Exclusion criteria:

1. Uncontrolled hyperglycaemia with a glucose level \>240 mg/dl (\>13.3 mmol/L) after an overnight fast during placebo run-in and confirmed by a second measurement (not on the same day)
2. Indication of liver disease, defined by serum levels of either alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase ALT or alkaline phosphatase above 3 x upper limit of normal (ULN) as determined at screening and/or run in.
3. Planned cardiac surgery or angioplasty within 3 months
4. Impaired renal function, defined as Glomerular Filtration Rate \<30 ml/min (severe renal impairment, Modification of Diet in Renal Disease formula) during screening or run in.
5. Bariatric surgery within the past two years and other gastrointestinal surgeries that induce chronic malabsorption
6. Blood dyscrasias or any disorders causing haemolysis or unstable Red Blood Cell (e.g. malaria, babesiosis, haemolytic anemia)
7. Medical history of cancer (except for basal cell carcinoma) and/or treatment for cancer within the last 5 years
8. Contraindications to background therapy according to the local label
9. Treatment with anti-obesity drugs (e.g. sibutramine, orlistat) 3 months prior to informed consent or any other treatment at the time of screening (i.e. surgery, aggressive diet regimen, etc.) leading to unstable body weight
10. Current treatment with systemic steroids at time of informed consent or change in dosage of thyroid hormones within 6 weeks prior to informed consent or any other uncontrolled endocrine disorder except type 2 diabetes mellitus
11. Pre-menopausal women (last menstruation \<+ 1 year prior to informed consent) who:

    * are nursing or pregnant or
    * are of child-bearing potential and are not practicing an acceptable method of birth control, or do not plan to continue using this method throughout the study and do not agree to submit to periodic pregnancy testing during participation in the trial. Acceptable methods of birth control include tubal ligation, transdermal patch, intra uterine devices/systems, oral, implantable or injectable contraceptives, sexual abstinence, double barrier method and vasectomised partner
12. Alcohol or drug abuse within the 3 months prior to informed consent that would interfere with trial participation or any ongoing condition leading to a decreased compliance to study procedures or study drug intake
13. Participation in another trial with an investigational drug within 30 days prior to informed consent
14. Any other clinical condition that would jeopardize patients safety while participating in this clinical trial
15. Acute coronary syndrome, stroke or TIA within 2 months prior to informed consent
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus, as determined by the new American Diabetes Association guidelines, which include a fasting plasma glucose level greater than 126 mg/dl (7.0 mmol/l), or a 2-hour postload value in the oral glucose tolerance test of greater than 200 mg/dl, with confirmation by a retest
* For participants aged 40 years or older, history of CVD (heart attack, stroke, history of coronary revascularization, history of peripheral or carotid revascularization, or demonstrated angina)
* For participants aged 55 years or older, a history of CVD is not required, but participant must be considered to be at high risk for experiencing a CVD event due to existing CVD, subclinical disease, or 2+ CVD risk factors
* HbA1c 7.5%-9% (if on more drugs) or 7.5%-11% (if on fewer drugs)
D: Inclusion criteria :

* Patients with type 2 diabetes insufficiently controlled (HbA1c \>7%) with current (≥6 months) "standard of care" basal insulin therapy (including insulin glargine U100, Levemir, NPH, or Tresiba) with or without oral agents (metformin, sulfonylurea, thiazolidinedione, DPP-4 inhibitor, SGLT-2 inhibitor, glinides, α glucosidase inhibitors) and with or without use of a GLP-1 receptor agonist.
* Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) \>130 mg/dL (7.2 mmol/L).
* Adult patients who have signed Informed Consent Form (ICF) and privacy form(s).

Exclusion criteria:

* HbA1c ≤7%, no upper bound.
* Age \<18 years.
* Type 1 diabetes mellitus.
* Any clinically significant abnormality identified on physical examination, laboratory tests, or vital signs at the time of screening, or any major systemic disease resulting in short life expectancy that in the opinion of the Investigator would restrict or limit the patient's successful participation for the duration of the study.
* Use of any product containing short or rapid acting insulin since the time of diagnosis with type 2 diabetes mellitus other than temporary use during a pregnancy or hospitalization.
* Use of any product containing short or rapid acting insulin occurring within 3 months prior to the time of screening.
* Use of oral hypoglycemic agents other than those noted in the inclusion criteria, GLP-1 receptor agonists not approved for use with insulin, or any investigational agent (drug, biologic, device) within 3 months prior to the time of screening.
* All contraindications to "standard of care" insulin therapy or warnings/precautions of use as displayed in the respective National Product labeling for these products.
* Hypersensitivity to insulin glargine or Toujeo excipients.
* Pregnancy or lactation.
* Women of childbearing potential with no effective contraceptive method.
