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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To demonstrate the effect on glycaemic control of once weekly insulin icodec, in combination with non-insulin anti-diabetic drugs, in insulin naive subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D). This included comparing the difference in change from baseline in glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) between insulin icodec and insulin glargine after 52 weeks of treatment to a non-inferiority limit of 0.3%.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The trial was conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki (64th World Medical Association [WMA] general Assembly; Oct 2013) and International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice, including archiving of essential documents, (Current Step 4 version, Nov 2016) and 21 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 312.120

    Insulin icodec
    Arm description
    Subjects received once-weekly subcutaneous injection of insulin icodec at a starting dose of 70 U for 52 weeks using PDS 290 pre-filled injector in combination with non-insulin anti-diabetic drugs. The dose adjustment was based on the three pre-breakfast self-monitored plasma glucose (SMPG) values measured on two days prior to titration and on the day of the contact. If at least one pre-breakfast SMPG value was: < 4.4 millimoles per liter (mmol/L): dose reduced by 20 units (U); 4.4-7.2 mmol/L: no adjustment; > 7.2 mmol/L: dose increased by 20 units.

    Insulin glargine
    Arm description
    Subjects received once daily subcutaneous injection of insulin glargine at a starting dose of 10 U using SoloSTAR pre-filled pen injector in combination with non-insulin anti-diabetic drugs.

    Mean weekly insulin dose from week 50 (V44) to week 52 (V46) is presented. The outcome data was evaluated based on main on treatment period. Main-on-treatment period started with onset date on or after the first dose of trial product and no later than the first date of either the end-date of the on-treatment period or week 52. On-treatment period started with onset date on or after the first dose of trial product and no later than the first date of either the follow-up visit (FU2), the last date on trial product + 5 weeks for once daily insulin and + 6 weeks for once weekly insulin or the end-date for the in-trial period. Safety analysis set included all subjects randomly assigned to trial treatment and who took at least 1 dose of trial product. Number of subjects analysed = Subjects with available data for the endpoint.

    End point description
    Number of clinically significant hypoglycaemic episodes (level 2) (below 3.0 mmol/L (54 mg/dL), confirmed by BG meter) or severe hypoglycaemic episodes (level 3) is presented. Clinically significant hypoglycaemia is defined as plasma glucose value of below 3.0 mmol/L (54 mg/dL). Severe hypoglycaemic episode is defined as hypoglycaemia with severe cognitive impairment requiring external assistance. Outcome data was evaluated based on on-treatment period. On-treatment period started at date of first dose of trial product as recorded on eCRF and ended at the first date of any of the following: End of trial visit (V63), the last date on trial product + 5 weeks for once daily insulin and + 6 weeks for once weekly insulin (corresponding to 5 weeks after the end of dosing interval for both treatment arms) and the end-date for in-trial observation period. Safety analysis set included all subjects randomly assigned to trial treatment and who took at least 1 dose of trial product.

    Adverse event reporting additional description
    Safety analysis set included all randomised subjects who were randomly assigned to trial treatment and who took at least 1 dose of trial product. A treatment-emergent AE (TEAE) was defined as an AE that initiated or worsened on or after the date of first dose of study drug up to the end of trial (week 83). All presented AEs are treatment emergent.

    Insulin glargine
    Reporting group description
    Subjects received once daily subcutaneous injection of insulin glargine at a starting dose of 10 U using SoloSTAR pre-filled pen injector in combination with non-insulin anti-diabetic drugs. The dose adjustment was based on the three pre-breakfast self-monitored plasma glucose (SMPG) values measured on two days prior to titration and on the day of the contact. If atleast one pre-breakfast SMPG value was: < 4.4 mmol/L: the dose was reduced by 3 U; 4.4-7.2: no dose adjustment required and >7.2 mmol/L: dose was increased by 3 U.

    Reporting group description
    Subjects received once-weekly subcutaneous injection of insulin icodec at a starting dose of 70 U for 52 weeks using PDS 290 pre-filled injector in combination with non-insulin anti-diabetic drugs. The dose adjustment was based on the three pre-breakfast self-monitored plasma glucose (SMPG) values measured on two days prior to titration and on the day of the contact. If at least one pre-breakfast SMPG value was: < 4.4 millimoles per liter (mmol/L): dose reduced by 20 units (U); 4.4-7.2 mmol/L: no adjustment; > 7.2 mmol/L: dose increased by 20 units.
