Efficacy and Safety of Insulin Glargine/ Lixisenatide Fixed Ratio Combination Compared to Insulin Glargine Alone and Lixisenatide Alone on Top of Metformin in Patients With T2DM (LixiLan-O)

Primary Objective:
- To compare the insulin glargine/lixisenatide fixed ratio combination to lixisenatide alone and to insulin glargine alone (on top of metformin treatment) in HbA1c change from baseline to week 30.

Secondary Objective:
- To compare the overall efficacy and safety of insulin glargine/lixisenatide fixed ratio combination to insulin glargine alone and to lixisenatide alone (on top of metformin treatment) over a 30 week treatment period in patients with type 2 diabetes
