Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To investigate if BIAsp 50-50-50(30) and BIAsp 70-70-70(30) is non-inferior, and superior in the event of non-inferiority, compared with BIAsp 30-30 all in combination with metformin with respect to glycaemic control as measured by HbA1c after 36 weeks of treatment in subjects with type 2 diabetes;;Secondary Objective: Compare BIAsp 70-70-70(30) and BIAsp 50-50-50(30) with BIAsp 30-30 with regards to: 1. Glycaemic control 2. Safety profiles 3. Changes in body weight and total daily insulin dose 4. Treatment Satisfaction and Well Being 5. Prandial and average prandial blood glucose increments over each of the 3 main meals Percentages of subjects achieving...: 6. HbA1c < 6.5 % 7. HbA1c < 7.0 % 8. a HbA1c reduction of more than 1.0 % from baseline 9. the treatment target of HbA1c < 6.5 % without experiencing hypoglycaemic episodes during the last 12 weeks of treatment 10. the treatment target of HbA1c < 7.0 % without experiencing hypoglycaemic episodes during the last 12 weeks of treatment Compare BIAsp 70-70-70(30) and BIAsp 50-50-50(30) with regards to: 11. Percentages of subjects switching the dinner injection to BIAsp 30 Compare BIAsp 70-70-70(30), BIAsp 50-50-50(30) and BIAsp 30-30 with regards to: 12. Percentages of subjects reaching a pre-breakfast PG = 7.0 mmol/L;Primary end point(s): • HbA1c assessed by central laboratory
