You may be eligible if
Participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus diagnosed at least 1 year before screening visit (V1).
Participants treated with basal insulin for at least 6 months.
Participants treated for at least 3 months prior to visit 1 with a stable basal insulin regimen (i.e. type of insulin and time/frequency of the injection). The insulin dose should be stable (± 20%) and ≥20 U/day for at least 2 months prior to visit 1.
Participants treated with basal insulin alone or in combination with 1 to 3 oral anti-diabetic drugs (OADs) that could be: metformin (≥1.5 g/day or maximal tolerated dose), a sulfonylurea (SU), a dipeptidyl-peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, a glinide. The dose of OADs should be stable for at least 3 months prior to visit 1.
Previous treatment with short or rapid acting insulin other than in relation to hospitalization or an acute illness.
Any previous treatment with lixisenatide, or any discontinuation from another glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist due to safety/tolerability issue or lack of efficacy.
At screening, Body Mass Index (BMI) ≤20 or \>40 kg/m\^2.
Weight change of more than 5 kg during the 3 months prior to the screening visit; use of weight loss drugs within 3 months prior to screening.
Within the last 6 months prior to screening: history of myocardial infarction, stroke, or heart failure requiring hospitalization. Planned coronary, carotid or peripheral artery revascularisation procedures.
History of unexplained pancreatitis, chronic pancreatitis, pancreatectomy, stomach/gastric surgery.
At screening resting systolic blood pressure \>180 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure \>95 mmHg.
Personal or immediate family history of medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) or genetic condition that predisposed to MTC (e.g. multiple endocrine neoplasia syndromes).
Contraindication related to metformin (for participant receiving this treatment), insulin glargine, insulin glulisine or lixisenatide.
Participants with severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance less than 30 ml/min) or end-stage renal disease.
At screening, amylase and/or lipase \>3 times the upper limit of the normal laboratory range (ULN).
At screening alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) \>3 ULN.
At screening calcitonin ≥20 pg/ml (5.9 pmol/L).

At screening: age \< legal age of majority.
At screening, HbA1c: \<7.5% and \>10.0% for participants treated with basal insulin alone or in combination with metformin only; \< 7.0% and \> 10.0% for participants treated with basal insulin and a combination of oral anti-diabetic drugs which included a SU and/or a DPP-4 inhibitor and/or a glinide.
Women of childbearing potential with no effective contraceptive method, pregnancy or lactation.
Type 1 diabetes mellitus.
HbA1c \<7.0% or \>9.0%.
7-day mean fasting SMPG \>140 mg/dl (7.8 mmol/L).
Amylase and/or lipase \>3 times ULN.
