Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This trial is conducted in Africa, Asia, Europe, and the United States of America (USA).

The aim of this clinical trial is to compare NN1250 (insulin degludec (IDeg)) with insulin glargine (IGlar) plus insulin aspart (IAsp) with/without metformin and with/without pioglitazone in subjects with type 2 diabetes (main period) followed by investigating the long-term safety in terms of comparing NN1250 with insulin glargine plus insulin aspart with or without metformin and with or without pioglitazone in subjects with type 2 diabetes.

All oral anti-diabetic drug (OAD) treatment will be discontinued, if applicable, when trial participant enters the trial (NN1250-3582) with the exception of metformin and pioglitazone.

Subjects who consent to participate in the extension trial (NN1250-3667) will continue to receive the treatment to which they were randomly allocated in the 52 week trial NN1250-3582.

The main period is registered internally at Novo Nordisk as NN1250-3582 while the extension period is registered as NN1250-3667.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Main Trial (Primary Endpoint): Change in Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) After 52 Weeks of Treatment [Week 0, Week 52]

    Change from baseline in HbA1c after 52 weeks of treatment

  2. Extension Trial (Primary Endpoint): Rate of Confirmed Hypoglycaemic Episodes [Week 0 to Week 78 + 7 days follow up]

    Rate of confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes per 100 patient years of exposure (PYE). Confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes consisted of severe hypoglycaemia as well as minor hypoglycaemic episodes. Severe hypoglycaemic episodes are defined as requiring assistance to administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions. Minor hypoglycaemic episodes are defined as able to treat her/himself and plasma glucose below 3.1 mmol/L.

  3. Extension Trial (Primary Endpoint): Rate of Nocturnal Confirmed Hypoglycaemic Episodes [Week 0 to Week 78 + 7 days follow up]

    Rate of confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes per 100 patient years of exposure (PYE). Confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes consisted of severe hypoglycaemia as well as minor hypoglycaemic episodes. Severe hypoglycaemic episodes are defined as requiring assistance to administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions. Minor hypoglycaemic episodes are defined as able to treat her/himself and plasma glucose below 3.1 mmol/L. Nocturnal hypoglycaemic episodes are defined as occurring between 00:01 and 05:59 a.m.

  4. Rate of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) [Week 0 to Week 78 + 7 days follow up]

    Corresponds to rate of AEs per 100 patient years of exposure. Mild AEs: no or transient symptoms, no interference with subject's daily activities. Moderate AEs: marked symptoms, moderate interference with subject's daily activities. Severe AEs: considerable interference with subject's daily activities, unacceptable. Serious adverse event (SAE): AE that at any dose results in any of the following: death, a life-threatening experience, in-subject hospitalization/prolongation of existing hospitalisation, persistent/significant disability/incapacity/congenital anomaly/birth defect.

Some sites did not enroll subjects in the extension period. One site from United States was closed.
Pre-assignment Detail All subjects who completed the 52-week main trial (NN1250-3582, NCT00972283) and were found to be eligible for the extension trial were offered to participate in the 26-week extension trial (NN1250-3667). The total duration of treatment was up to 78 weeks (52 weeks + 26 weeks).
Arm/Group Title IDeg OD IGlar OD

The regimen was given for a treatment duration of 52 weeks in the main period and for an additional 26 weeks in the extension period. Insulin glargine (IGlar) was given subcutaneously once daily (OD), according to labelling instructions with insulin aspart (IAsp) as mealtime insulin with or without subject's pre-trial metformin with or without pioglitazone. IGlar was given for a treatment duration of 52 weeks in the main period and for an additional 26 weeks in the extension period.

Arm/Group Title IDeg OD IGlar OD
Arm/Group Description Insulin degludec (IDeg) was given subcutaneously once daily (OD) with main evening meal with insulin aspart (IAsp) as mealtime insulin with or without subject's pre-trial metformin with or without pioglitazone. The regimen was given for a treatment duration of 52 weeks in the main period and for an additional 26 weeks in the extension period. Insulin glargine (IGlar) was given subcutaneously once daily (OD), according to labelling instructions with insulin aspart (IAsp) as mealtime insulin with or without subject's pre-trial metformin with or without pioglitazone.

Description Rate of confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes per 100 patient years of exposure (PYE). Confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes consisted of severe hypoglycaemia as well as minor hypoglycaemic episodes. Severe hypoglycaemic episodes are defined as requiring assistance to administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions. Minor hypoglycaemic episodes are defined as able to treat her/himself and plasma glucose below 3.1 mmol/L. Nocturnal hypoglycaemic episodes are defined as occurring between 00:01 and 05:59 a.m.

Title Rate of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (AEs)
Description Corresponds to rate of AEs per 100 patient years of exposure. Mild AEs: no or transient symptoms, no interference with subject's daily activities. Moderate AEs: marked symptoms, moderate interference with subject's daily activities. Severe AEs: considerable interference with subject's daily activities, unacceptable. Serious adverse event (SAE): AE that at any dose results in any of the following: death, a life-threatening experience, in-subject hospitalization/prolongation of existing hospitalisation, persistent/significant disability/incapacity/congenital anomaly/birth defect.
