| Main Objective: To investigate that the effect of insulin detemir on fasting blood glucose between 5.00 am. – 6.30 am. is superior compared to insulin NPH in Type 1 patients with dawn phenomenon.;Secondary Objective: • To compare the incidence of hypoglycaemic episodes during treatment with insulin aspart (IAsp) / Detemir and IAsp / NPH. • To compare the safety profiles of IAsp / Detemir with IAsp / NPH as measured by the occurrence of adverse events during treatment. • To compare the safety profiles of IAsp / Detemir with IAsp / NPH as measured by standard safety parameters (haematology and biochemistry). • To compare the Quality of Life during treatment with IAsp / Detemir and IAsp / NPH. • To compare glycaemic control as measured by HbA1c and blood glucose excursions in patients having dawn phenomenon. • To compare the effect of the Detemir administration at morning and bedtime versus at 12 hours intervals both with mealtime IAsp on the blood glucose rise in the early morning hours. • To evaluate changes in total daily insulin dose, basal insulin dose and the bolus / basal ratio.;Primary end point(s): Changes in early morning glycaemic control (measured as mean FPG, difference between fasting and bedtime values, difference between fasting and 03:00 values) | — |
