Measure
IDegAsp BID
The subjects in this arm received insulin degludec/insulin aspart (IDegAsp) (100 U/mL, 3 mL prefilled pen PDS290) twice daily, subcutaneously in the abdomen, upper arm (deltoid area) or thigh either with breakfast and dinner or with lunch and dinner for 26 weeks. The subjects pre-study medication included a basal insulin regimen (insulin detemir; insulin glargine; insulin NPH) with or without oral anti-diabetic drugs (OADs) (metformin, sulphonylurea (SU), glinide, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, α-glucosidase-inhibitors), for at least 12 weeks prior to visit 1 (screening).
IDeg OD+IAsp
The subjects in this arm received IDeg (100 U/mL, 3 mL prefilled pen PDS290) once daily, subcutaneously in the abdomen, upper arm (deltoid area) or thigh at any time of the day. The subjects in this arm also received IAsp (\[NovoRapid®/NovoLog®\], 100 U/mL, 3 mL, FlexPen®) with the main meals 2-4 times daily, subcutaneously (preferably into the abdominal wall) in accordance with local labelling. The subjects pre-study medication included a basal insulin regimen (insulin detemir; insulin glargine; insulin NPH) with or without OADs (metformin, SU, glinide, DPP-4 inhibitors, α-glucosidase-inhibitors), for at least 12 weeks prior to visit 1.
