Study Arms:
- Canakinumab 5 mg + Metformin (Type: EXPERIMENTAL): In 4-Month Dose-finding period, patients visited the clinic monthly and had 5 mg Canakinumab injected in the clinic at each visit and continued on a stable dose of metformin ≥ 1000 mg daily (or lower dose if required by local regulations). During this period, patients with consecutive morning fasting glucose \>200 mg/dL were treated with a daily injection of insulin glargine as add-on therapy.~The intermediate period began after patients completed their 4-month visit and lasted until the primary analysis was completed and the optimal dose was selected. Patients continued on their randomized treatment and made brief visits to the clinic every month. From this point onward, patients with consecutive HbA1c \>7.5% were treated with a daily injection of insulin glargine as add-on therapy.
- Canakinumab 15 mg + Metformin (Type: EXPERIMENTAL): In 4-Month Dose-finding period, patients visited the clinic monthly and had 15 mg Canakinumab injected in the clinic at each visit and continued on a stable dose of metformin ≥ 1000 mg daily (or lower dose if required by local regulations). During this period, patients with consecutive morning fasting glucose \>200 mg/dL were treated with a daily injection of insulin glargine as add-on therapy.~The intermediate period began after patients completed their 4-month visit and lasted until the primary analysis was completed and the optimal dose was selected. Patients continued on their randomized treatment and made brief visits to the clinic every month. From this point onward, patients with consecutive HbA1c \>7.5% were treated with a daily injection of insulin glargine as add-on therapy.
- Canakinumab 50 mg + Metformin (Type: EXPERIMENTAL): In 4-Month Dose-finding period, patients visited the clinic monthly and had 50 mg Canakinumab injected in the clinic at each visit and continued on a stable dose of metformin ≥ 1000 mg daily (or lower dose if required by local regulations). During this period, patients with consecutive morning fasting glucose \>200 mg/dL were treated with a daily injection of insulin glargine as add-on therapy.~The intermediate period began after patients completed their 4-month visit and lasted until the primary analysis was completed and the optimal dose was selected. Patients continued on their randomized treatment and made brief visits to the clinic every month. From this point onward, patients with consecutive HbA1c \>7.5% were treated with a daily injection of insulin glargine as add-on therapy.
- Canakinumab 150 mg + Metformin (Type: EXPERIMENTAL): In 4-Month Dose-finding period, patients visited the clinic monthly and had 150 mg Canakinumab injected in the clinic at each visit and continued on a stable dose of metformin ≥ 1000 mg daily (or lower dose if required by local regulations). During this period, patients with consecutive morning fasting glucose \>200 mg/dL were treated with a daily injection of insulin glargine as add-on therapy.~The intermediate period began after patients completed their 4-month visit and lasted until the primary analysis was completed and the optimal dose was selected. Patients continued on their randomized treatment and made brief visits to the clinic every month. From this point onward, patients with consecutive HbA1c \>7.5% were treated with a daily injection of insulin glargine as add-on therapy.
- Placebo + Metformin (Type: PLACEBO_COMPARATOR): In 4 month dose finding period as well as during intermediate period, patients received one injection of canakinumab matching placebo monthly and continued on a stable dose of metformin ≥ 1000 mg daily (or lower dose if required by local regulations).

Based on this trial design, predict the completion outcome and termination type (if applicable).
