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. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

HbA1c < 7.0% without severe hypoglycaemic episodes (yes/no) | ||||||||||||||||||
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 Subjects withdrawn before 32 weeks were handled as non-responders.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.

End point description |
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).
