Purpose
The primary purpose of the protocol is to demonstrate that the new regimen (insulin glargine+regular insulin ) is no worse than the reference regimen (insulin glargine+lys-pro insulin ) in reducing the incidence of severe nocturnal hypoglycemia at the end point; the secondary purpose is to compare the two study regimens as far as the glycemic control (measured by HbA1c), the daily Mean Blood Glucose (MBG) and the mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE index), calculated on the basis of Self Monitoring Blood Glugose (SMBG) data, are concerned and to verify the safety of basal insulinization with Lantus.

Exclusion criteria:
- Diabetes other than type 1 diabetic mellitus
- Type 1 diabetic patients with total insulin dose >= 1 IU/kg/day
- Serum creatinine > 1.5 mg/dl, or history of renal transplantation or current renal dialysis
- Congestive heart failure NYHA class II
- Acute or chronic metabolic acidosis, including diabetic ketoacidosis
- Clinical evidence of active liver disease, or serum ALT/AST 2 times the upper limit of the normal range

- More than one episode of severe hypoglycemia with seizure or coma during the past year
- Likelihood of requiring treatment during the study period with any anti-diabetic drug other than the study drugs
- Failure to use adequate contraception (women of current reproductive potential only)
- Known hypersensitivity to insulin glargine, or any of the excipients
- Malignancy except basal cell carcinoma within the last five years
- Long lasting (> 2 weeks) treatment with systemic glucocorticoid therapy
