Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43857   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).

    Clinical Trial Results:
    A 32-week randomised, multinational, treat-to-target, open label, parallel group comparison of stepwise insulin intensification of biphasic insulin aspart (BIAsp) 30 and basal-bolus therapy with insulin glargine and insulin aspart in insulin naïve type 2 diabetic patients inadequately controlled on oral anti-diabetic therapy

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To compare the effect of intensification with BIAsp 30 versus intensification with basal bolus insulin analogues (insulin glargine [IGlar] and insulin aspart [IAsp]) on glycaemic control.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The trial was conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki (2013) and ICH Good Clinical Practice (1996) and FDA 21 CFR 312.120.
    Background therapy
    Pre-trial treatment with metformin and sulphonylurea (SU) were continued as background treatment throughout the entire trial.

    Arm title
    BIAsp 30
    Arm description
    Subjects received subcutaneous (s.c.) injection of biphasic insulin aspart 30 (BIAsp 30 - a mixture of soluble IAsp 30% and protaminated IAsp 70%) during a 32-week treatment period (divided into 4 periods of 8 weeks each). Subjects started treatment with 1 daily injection of BIAsp 30 (starting dose 12 unit) with the largest meal. Insulin titration: Subjects underwent a weekly insulin dose titration during the entire treatment period in order to achieve the pre-meal self-measured plasma glucose (SMPG) target of 4.4−6.1 mmol/L (80−110 mg/dL). Insulin intensification: At the end of each 8-week period, insulin treatment was intensified in a stepwise manner by adding an additional injection of BIAsp 30 depending on whether subjects achieved the pre-defined glycaemic target (haemoglobin A1c [HbA1c]) <7.0%). Subjects had the possibility of receiving up to 3 daily injections of BIAsp 30. Subjects continued pre-trial treatment with metformin and SU throughout the trial.

Insulin titration: Subjects underwent a weekly insulin dose titration during the entire treatment period in order to achieve the pre-meal SMPG target of 4.4−6.1 mmol/L (80−110 mg/dL). Insulin intensification: At the end of each 8-week period, insulin treatment was intensified in a stepwise manner by adding an additional injection of IAsp depending on whether subjects achieved the pre-defined glycaemic target (HbA1c <7.0%). Subjects had the possibility of receiving 1 daily injection of IGlar plus up to 3 daily injections of IAsp. Subjects continued their pre-trial treatment with metformin and SU throughout the trial.

    End point description
    Percentage of subjects with HbA1c below 7.0% after 32 weeks of randomised treatment without treatment emergent severe hypoglycaemic episodes during the last 12 weeks of treatment. Subjects withdrawn before 32 weeks were handled as non-responders. Severe hypoglycaemic episode was defined as an episode requiring assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or take other corrective actions. Plasma glucose (PG) concentrations may not be available during an event, but neurological recovery following the return of PG to normal is considered sufficient evidence that the event was induced by a low PG concentration. Analysis was performed on the full analysis set.

    Hypoglycaemic episodes were classified as severe, Asymptomatic, Documented symptomatic, Pseudo, and Probable symptomatic as per ADA classification. As symptoms of hypoglycaemia occur below a PG level of 3.1 mmol/L, (56 mg/dL) Novo Nordisk classification included hypoglycaemia with plasma glucose (PG) levels below 3.1 mmol/L (56 mg/dL) in the definition of blood glucose confirmed hypoglycaemia. Hence, Novo Nordisk classification included following types of hypoglycaemia in addition to ADA classification: Severe hypoglycaemia, Symptomatic blood glucose confirmed hypoglycaemia, Asymptomatic blood glucose confirmed hypoglycaemia, Severe or blood glucose confirmed symptomatic hypoglycaemia, Blood glucose confirmed hypoglycaemia, and Severe or blood glucose confirmed hypoglycaemia. Reported data represents total of all hypoglycaemic episodes. Analysis was performed on the safety analysis set (all subjects receiving at least one dose of the investigational product or its comparator).

    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    From first randomised treatment (week 0) to last randomised treatment (week 32) + 7 days.
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    Safety analysis set included all subjects receiving at least one dose of the investigational product or its comparator. All the adverse events mentioned here were treatment emergent (an event that has an onset date on or after the first day of exposure to randomised treatment, and no later than 7 days after the last day of randomised treatment).

    Reporting groups
    Reporting group title
    BIAsp 30
    Reporting group description
    Subjects received s.c. injection of BIAsp 30 (a mixture of soluble IAsp 30% and protaminated IAsp 70%) during a 32-week treatment period (divided into 4 periods of 8 weeks each). Subjects started treatment with 1 daily injection of BIAsp 30 (starting dose 12 unit) with the largest meal. Insulin titration: Subjects underwent a weekly insulin dose titration during the entire treatment period in order to achieve the pre-meal SMPG target of 4.4−6.1 mmol/L (80−110 mg/dL). Insulin intensification: At the end of each 8-week period, insulin treatment was intensified in a stepwise manner by adding an additional injection of BIAsp 30 depending on whether subjects achieved the pre-defined glycaemic target (HbA1c <7.0%). Subjects had the possibility of receiving up to 3 daily injections of BIAsp 30. Subjects continued their pre-trial treatment with metformin and SU throughout the trial.

    Reporting group title
    Basal-bolus
    Reporting group description
    Subjects received s.c. injections of IGlar during a 32-week treatment period (divided into 4 periods of 8 weeks each). Subjects started with 1 daily injection of IGlar (administrated at same point of time every day) with starting dose of 10 units. Insulin titration: Subjects underwent a weekly insulin dose titration during the entire treatment period in order to achieve the pre-meal SMPG target of 4.4−6.1 mmol/L (80−110 mg/dL). Insulin intensification: At the end of each 8-week period, insulin treatment was intensified in a stepwise manner by adding an additional injection of IAsp depending on whether subjects achieved the pre-defined glycaemic target (HbA1c <7.0%). Subjects had the possibility of receiving 1 daily injection of IGlar plus up to 3 daily injections of IAsp. Subjects continued their pre-trial treatment with metformin and SU throughout the trial.
