Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The primary objective is to investigate the long-term safety and tolerability of NN1250. This is done by comparing NN1250 to insulin glargine after 104 weeks of treatment (52 weeks of treatment in NN1250-3579 plus 52 weeks of treatment in this extension trial) in terms of the listed safety assessments from which endpoints will be calculated: • Adverse events • Hypoglycaemic episodes • Clinical evaluation • Laboratory assessments • Body weight • Insulin dose;Secondary Objective: The secondary objective is to compare the efficacy between NN1250 and insulin glargine after 104 weeks of treatment, in terms of the listed efficacy assessments from which endpoints will be calculated: • HbA1c (central laboratory) • Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) measured at a central laboratory • 9-point self measured plasma glucose (SMPG) profile • Self measured plasma glucose for dose adjustments;Primary end point(s): • Number of treatment emergent adverse events with an onset on or after the first day of exposure to randomised trial drug and no later than 7 days after last exposure to randomised trial drug • Number of severe and minor treatment emergent hypoglycaemic episodes with an onset on or after the first day of exposure to randomised trial drug and not later than 7 days after last exposure to randomised trial drug • Change from baseline in insulin antibodies after 104 weeks of treatment
