| Main Objective: The primary study objective is to compare the rate of "all hypoglycemia" between children treated with insulin glargine and NPH insulin.;Primary end point(s): Event rate of "all hypoglycemia" during treatment with study drugs, which consists of: CGMS glucose <70 mg/dL (3.9mM) , Self-Monitored Blood Glucose values <70 mg/dL (3.9mM), symptomatic hypoglycemia episodes.;Secondary Objective: Secondary objectives are to compare insulin glargine and NPH in terms of: - rates of specific types of hypoglycemia: symptomatic, severe, nocturnal, nocturnal symptomatic, and severe nocturnal symptomatic hypoglycemia - HbA1c change from baseline to end-of-treatment, and HbA1c at end-of-treatment - percentage of patients reaching HbA1 less than 7.5% (target value) at end-of-treatment - average blood glucose over whole trial and at end of trial, as estimated by CGMS. | — |
