About this trial
The present 24-week, prospective, open-label, randomized, multicenter, parallel group trial is carried to investigate and evaluate the efficacy and safety of Liraglutide in combination with prandial insulin therapy vs insulin glargine in combination with prandial insulin therapy in overweight / obese patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes.

Patients with type 2 diabetes who met the World Health Organization (who) diagnostic criteria (1999).
Newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients with HbA1c ≥ 9.0%;or patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes (HbA1c ≥ 7.5% ) who have received at least two types of oral hypoglycemic drugs (the dose of each drug needs to reach the second largest dose or more), or only insulin (excluding basal-bolus insulin therapy), or insulin with oral hypoglycemic drugs.

Treatments tested in this trial
Liraglutide
DrugPatients will receive adding Liraglutide to prandial insulin Lispro. The starting liraglutide dose was 0.6mg/day, then 1.2mg/day after 1 week and 1.8mg/day after a further week. The dose was maintained until study completion. Dose of insulin Lispro will be instructed on a titration schedule, adjusted every 3 days.
insulin glargine
DrugIndividuals randomized to adding insulin Glargine to prandial insulin Lispro will be instructed on a titration schedule, adjusted every 3 days. Patients subcutaneously self-injected once-daily at approximately the same time each day.
Treatment groups
