Titration of basal insulin led by either the physician or the patient is not well understood in India. This analysis of Indian subset of Asian Treat to Target Lantus Study (ATLAS) compared effectiveness of patient-led with physician-led titration of once-daily insulin glargine 100 U/mL (Glargine-U-100) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) uncontrolled on oral antidiabetes drug (OAD). In this open-label parallel group study, randomized patients (either physician-led or patient-led [self-titration] group) followed the same dose titration algorithm (fasting blood glucose [FBG] target 110 mg/dL [6.
