A Pan Asian Trial Comparing Efficacy and Safety of NN5401 and Biphasic Insulin Aspart 30 in Type 2 Diabetes

This trial is conducted in Asia. The aim of this clinical trial is to compare NN5401 (insulin degludec/insulin aspart (IDegAsp)) with biphasic insulin aspart (BIAsp) 30 in patients with type 2 diabetes not optimally controlled on once or twice daily insulin with or without metformin.

  • Subject on basal human or analogue insulin, once daily (OD) or twice daily (BID) with or without metformin for at least 3 months or subject on premixed human or analogue insulin or self-mixed insulin regimen, containing 20-40% fast/rapid-acting component, OD or BID, with or without metformin, for at least 3 months
  • HbA1c 7.0-10.0 % (both inclusive) by central laboratory analysis

Treatment and study plan

insulin degludec/insulin aspart

Drug

Injected subcutaneously twice daily. Dose was individually adjusted.

biphasic insulin aspart 30

Drug

Injected subcutaneously twice daily. Dose was individually adjusted.

Primary outcomes

  1. Change in HbA1c (Glycosylated Haemoglobin) After 26 Weeks of Treatment

    Time frame: Week 0, Week 26

    Change from baseline in HbA1c after 26 weeks of treatment.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Mean of 9-point Self Measured Plasma Glucose Profile (SMPG) at Week 26

    Time frame: Week 26

    Mean of SMPG at 26 weeks of treatment. Plasma glucose measured: before breakfast, 90 minutes after start of breakfast, before lunch, 90 minutes after start of lunch, before dinner, 90 minutes after start of dinner, bedtime, at 4 am and before breakfast.

  2. Rate of Confirmed Hypoglycaemic Episodes

    Time frame: Week 0 to Week 26 + 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.

  3. Rate of Nocturnal Confirmed Hypoglycaemic Episodes

    Time frame: Week 0 to Week 26 + 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 occuring between 00:01 and 05:59 a.m.

  4. Change in Body Weight

    Time frame: Week 0, Week 26

    Change from baseline in body weight after 26 weeks of treatment.
