Conditions

Primary objective:To investigate the effect of liraglutide 1.8 mg once daily compared to placebo for 24 weeks on change in HbA1c in patients with type 1 diabetes as an add-on therapy to insulin. Secondary objectives:To investigate the effect of liraglutide as an add-on therapy to insulin compared to placebo on change in:Weight, insulin dose,hypoglycaemic events, CGM, BMI, body composition, quality of life, treatment satisfaction,food preferences, meal test, CIMT, PWV and 24 hour blood pressure.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To investigate the effect of liraglutide 1.8 mg once daily compared to placebo for 24 weeks on change in HbA1c in patients with type 1 diabetes as an adjunctive therapy to insulin treatment. ;Secondary Objective: To investigate the effect of liraglutide as an adjunctive therapy to insulin treatment compared to placebo on change in: Weight, insulin dose, hypoglycaemic events, glycaemic excursions (time spent in hypo- and hyperglycaemia as measured by CGM), BMI, body composition, quality of life and treatment satisfaction, food preferences, VAS score for appetite, standardised liquid meal test for postprandial glucagon levels and glycaemic excursions, gastric emptying via serum paracetamol measurements, CIMT, PWV and 24 hour blood pressure.;Primary end point(s): Change in HbA1c from visit 1 to the end of treatment after 24 weeks of intervention. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At the end of treatment after 24 weeks of intervention.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Changes from visit 1 to the end of treatment after 24 weeks of intervention in: • Weight • Insulin dose • Hypoglycaemic events • Glycaemic excursions (time spent in hypo- and hyperglycaemia as measured by CGM) • BMI • Lean body mass and fat mass composition as determined by Dual-Energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan • Quality of life and treatment satisfaction • Food preferences • VAS score for appetite • Standardised liquid mixed meal test for postprandial glucagon levels and glycaemic excursion • Gastric emptying via serum paracetamol measurements • Carotis intima media thickness • Pulse wave velocity • 24 hour blood pressure and pulse rate;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At the end of treatment after 24 weeks of intervention.
