Comparison of Biphasic Insulin Aspart 30 Twice Daily With Two Different Initial Dosage Split Regimens in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes: An Extension to Trial BIASP-3756

This trial is conducted in Asia. The aim of the trial is to compare the effect on glycaemic control of biphasic insulin aspart 30 twice daily with two different dosage split regimens for Chinese subjects with type 2 diabetes who did not achieve the treatment target of a glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) below 7% in trial BIASP-3756 (NCT01123980).

Treatment and study plan

biphasic insulin aspart 30

Drug

Administered subcutaneously (under the skin), twice daily with a dosage of 2/3 and 1/3 total daily dose before breakfast and before dinner, in combination with metformin.

metformin

Drug

Tablets 500 mg administered orally with meals. Pre-trial dose and regimen unchanged

Primary outcomes

  1. Change in Glycosylated Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) From Baseline

    Time frame: Week 0, week 16

Secondary outcomes

  1. 9-point SMPG (Self Measured Plasma Glucose) Profile

    Time frame: Week 16

    A 9-point SMPG profile included measurements before and 120 minutes after start of breakfast, lunch and main evening meal, measurements prior to bedtime and at 2:00 -4:00 a.m., and one before breakfast the following day

  2. Percentage of Subjects Achieving HbA1c Below 7.0%

    Time frame: Week 16

    The percentage of subjects achieving the treatment target for glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) after 16 weeks of treatment

  3. Percentage of Subjects Achieving HbA1c Below or Equal to 6.5%

    Time frame: Week 16

    The percentage of subjects achieving the treatment target for glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) after 16 weeks of treatment

  4. Number of Treatment Emergent Hypoglycaemic Episodes

    Time frame: Weeks 0-16

    Treatment emergent hypoglycaemic episodes (hypos): those that happened between treatment and one day after last drug day. Hypos summarised based on American Diabetes Association classification. Severe hypos: episodes requiring another person to actively administer resuscitative actions. Minor hypos: episodes with symptoms with plasma glucose below 3.1 mmol/L (56 mg/dL) handled by the subject, or any asymptomatic plasma glucose below 3.1 mmol/L (56 mg/dL). Diurnal period: between 06:00 and 23:59 (both included). Nocturnal period: between 00:00 and 05:59 a.m. (both included).
