NCT ID: NCT01849289
Last Updated: 2017-04-07
Results Overview
Change from baseline in HbA1c (%) after 26 weeks of treatment.
COMPLETED
PHASE3
833 participants
Week 0, week 26

Participant Flow
The trial was conducted at 68 sites in six countries as follows: Brazil: 3 sites; Canada: 7 sites; China: 37 sites; South Africa: 4 sites; Ukraine: 6 sites; United States: 11 sites.
The subjects discontinued their current Oral Antidiabetic drug (OAD) treatment at Visit 2 (randomisation visit) except for metformin, before starting the treatment with trial drugs.
Participant milestones
| Measure |
IDeg OD
Insulin degludec (IDeg) 10U was injected subcutaneously (under the skin) once daily (OD) in the evening (start of main evening meal to bedtime) either in the thigh, upper arm (deltoid area) or abdomen along with metformin given orally for 26 weeks. At last treatment visit (Visit 28) subjects were instructed to switch basal insulin treatment to the intermediate acting insulin NPH until the follow-up visit (Visit 29).
|
IGlar OD
Insulin glargine (IGlar) 10U was injected subcutaneously (under the skin) once daily (OD) in the evening (start of main evening meal to bedtime) either in the thigh, upper arm (deltoid area) or abdomen along with metformin given orally for 26 weeks. At last treatment visit (Visit 28) subjects were instructed to switch basal insulin treatment to the intermediate acting insulin NPH until the follow-up visit (Visit 29).

Confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes consisted of episodes of severe hypoglycaemia as well as minor hypoglycaemic episodes with a confirmed PG value of less than 3.1 mmol/L (56 mg/dL).Minor hypoglycaemic episode is defined as an episode with symptoms consistent with hypoglycaemia with confirmation by full blood glucose \< 2.8 mmol/L (50 mg/dL), or PG \< 3.1 mmol/L (56 mg/dL) and which is handled by the subject himself/herself or any asymptomatic full blood glucose value \< 2.8 mmol/L (50 mg/dL) or PG value \< 3.1 mmol/L (56 mg/dL).
