Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This trial is conducted globally. The aim of the trial is to confirm the efficacy and safety of liraglutide as adjunct therapy to insulin in the treatment of type 1 diabetes. The total trial duration per subject is approximately 58 weeks.

Experimental: Liraglutide 0.6 mg + insulin
|
Drug: liraglutide
Subjects randomised to 0.6 mg liraglutide treatment or liraglutide placebo as an add-on to their pre-trial insulin treatment will remain on this dose throughout the study (52 weeks). Administered subcutaneously (s.c., under the skin) once daily.
|
Experimental: Liraglutide 1.2 mg + insulin
|
Drug: liraglutide
Subjects randomised to 0.6 mg liraglutide treatment or liraglutide placebo as an add-on to their pre-trial insulin treatment will remain on this dose throughout the study (52 weeks). Administered subcutaneously (s.c., under the skin) once daily.
|
Experimental: Liraglutide 1.8 mg + insulin
|
Drug: liraglutide
Subjects randomised to 0.6 mg liraglutide treatment or liraglutide placebo as an add-on to their pre-trial insulin treatment will remain on this dose throughout the study (52 weeks). Administered subcutaneously (s.c., under the skin) once daily.
|
Placebo Comparator: Liraglutide placebo 0.6 mg + insulin
|
Drug: placebo
Subjects randomised to 0.6 mg liraglutide treatment or liraglutide placebo as an add-on to their pre-trial insulin treatment will remain on this dose throughout the study (52 weeks). Administered subcutaneously (s.c., under the skin) once daily.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change From Baseline in HbA1c (Glycosylated Haemoglobin) [Week 0, week 52]
Change from baseline in HbA1c at week 52. Missing values were handled by using a mixed model for repeated measurements (MMRM).
- Change From Baseline in Body Weight [Week 0, week 52]
Change from baseline in body weight at week 52. Missing values were handled by using a MMRM.
- Change From Baseline in Total Daily Insulin Dose [Week 0, week 52]
Change from baseline in total daily insulin dose at week 52. Change from baseline was represented in terms of ratio to baseline for insulin dose i.e. Total daily insulin dose at week 52/total daily insulin dose at baseline. Missing values were handled by using a MMRM.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Number of Treatment-emergent Symptomatic Hypoglycaemic Episodes [Weeks 0-52]
This is a confirmatory secondary endpoint. Symptomatic hypoglycaemic episodes were defined as: 1) Severe according to the American Diabetes Association (ADA) classification: An episode requiring assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or take other corrective actions. OR 2) Self-monitoring of plasma glucose value of <3.1 mmol/L, with symptoms consistent with hypoglycaemia. A treatment emergent episode is defined as an episode with onset date (or increase in severity) on or after first day of exposure to randomised treatment and up to last dose + 7 days.

Title | Number of Treatment-emergent Symptomatic Hypoglycaemic Episodes |
---|---|
Description | This is a confirmatory secondary endpoint. Symptomatic hypoglycaemic episodes were defined as: 1) Severe according to the American Diabetes Association (ADA) classification: An episode requiring assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or take other corrective actions. OR 2) Self-monitoring of plasma glucose value of <3.1 mmol/L, with symptoms consistent with hypoglycaemia. A treatment emergent episode is defined as an episode with onset date (or increase in severity) on or after first day of exposure to randomised treatment and up to last dose + 7 days. |
