before screening
• One or more episodes of severe hypoglycemia within 6 months before
screening and/or history of hypoglycemia unawareness
• History of proliferative diabetic retinopathy, diabetic maculopathy, or severe

digital fundus photography with specified camera for non-dilated examination,
performed by an ophthalmologist or another suitably qualified healthcare
provider (eg, optometrist) within the following timeframe before screening or
in the period between screening and randomization is required to verify
eligibility criteria:

fundoscopy exam, a fundoscopy exam should be performed within
12 months before screening
− For participants with mild or moderate non-proliferative retinopathy on the
most current fundoscopy exam, a fundoscopy exam should be performed
within 6 months before screening.
If the participant has experienced worsening of visual function since the last
examination, then the examination must be repeated before determining
eligibility for randomization. Refer to Section 8.4.5.3 for details.
Note: Exclusionary glucose-lowering medications can be found in Exclusion
Criteria 224 and 225 below
Note: Participants without a previous diagnosis of T2DM who have an HbA1c ≥
6.5% at screening can be rescreened after 3 months if glycemic status is
controlled and on stable therapy
