Trial Outcomes & Findings for Safety Follow-up on Children and Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes Treated With Insulin Detemir. An Extension to Trial NN304-1689 (NCT NCT00623194)

NCT ID: NCT00623194

Last Updated: 2016-11-28

Results Overview

Estimated amount of bound antibodies in percent of total antibodies. The primary analysis of cross-reacting antibodies included results from blood samples taken before insulin detemir and less than 3 hours after insulin aspart injection. In addition, an analysis was done including results from samples taken before insulin detemir and less than 2.5 hours after insulin aspart injection.

Participant Flow

29 sites in 11 countries: (Bulgaria (3 sites), Czech Republic (3 sites), Denmark (2 sites), Finland (4 sites), France (1 site), Hungary (2 sites), Macedonia (1 site), Poland (4 sites), Russian Federation (4 sites), Turkey (4 sites) and United Kingdom (1 site)

At entry subjects had finalised 52-weeks treatment with insulin detemir plus insulin aspart (Trial NN304-1689, NCT00435019). Subjects treated with NPH insulin plus insulin aspart in trial NN304-1689 were not offered to continue in this extension trial. Subjects continued treatment with insulin detemir and insulin aspart doses from trial NN304-1689.

Standard deviation-score (SD-score) after 104 weeks. The SD-score for weight was calculated based on a British reference population from 1990. To estimate the growth of children, standardised mean weight values were calculated for each month of age and for each sex. Thus, a child with a weight equal to the mean value for its age and sex has an SD score of 0, while a child with a weight 2 SDs above the mean value for its age and sex has an SD score of +2.
