Summary

This trial is conducted in Asia. The aim of this trial is to compare efficacy and safety of insulin detemir plus insulin aspart and NPH insulin plus human soluble insulin both in a basal bolus regimen with or without metformin in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes.

Clinical Details

Official title: A 2-week, Randomised, Controlled, Open-label, Two-group Parallel, Multi-centre Trial Comparing Efficacy and Safety of Insulin Detemir Plus Insulin Aspart and NPH Insulin Plus Human Soluble Insulin Both in a Basal Bolus Regimen With or Without Metformin in Chinese Inpatients With Type 2 Diabetes Currently Treated With Insulin Qualifying for Intensified Treatment

Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment

Primary outcome: Change from baseline in mean 8-point plasma glucose (PG)

Secondary outcome:

Change from baseline in fasting plasma glucose (FPG)

Change from baseline in mean 2-hour post prandial plasma glucose (2hPPG) of 3 meals

Change from baseline in mean value of pre-lunch, pre-dinner and bedtime PG

Percentage of subjects achieving PG targets

Change from baseline in fructosamine

Incidence of hypoglycaemic episodes

Eligibility

Minimum age: 18 Years. Maximum age: N/A. Gender(s): Both.

Criteria:

Inclusion Criteria:

- Type 2 diabetes mellitus (diagnosed clinically) for at 12 months or longer

- Currently treated with basal insulin once daily or premixed insulin twice daily for

at least 3 months with or without OAD(s), and total daily insulin dose less than 1. 4 IU (U)/kg (If treated with metformin, unchanged total daily dose of at least 1000 mg for at least 3 months)

- Body Mass Index (BMI) equal to 40 kg/m^2 or below

- HbA1c (glycosylated haemoglobin A1c) between 7. 0% and 10. 0% by central laboratory

analysis

- Plan to be admitted for optimising glycaemic control at least 2 days prior to the

randomisation

Exclusion Criteria:

- Treatment with thiazolidinediones (TZD) or Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor

agonists within the last 3 months prior to the screening

- Anticipated change after the randomisation in concomitant medication known to

interfere with glucose metabolism, such as systemic corticosteroids, beta-blockers and mono amine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors

- Previous participation in this trial. (Participation is defined as randomised.

Re-screening of screening failures is allowed only once within the limits of the recruitment period.)
