Brief summary

This trial is conducted in Africa, North and South America, Asia and Europe. The purpose of the trial is to compare the effect of once-weekly dosing of two dose levels of semaglutide versus insulin glargine once-daily on glycaemic control after 30 weeks of treatment in insulin-naïve subjects with type 2 diabetes.

Interventions

DRUGsemaglutide

Injected subcutaneously (under the skin) once weekly. Following 4 doses (4 weeks) of 0.25 mg semaglutide weekly subjects will receive 0.5 mg semaglutide weekly for 26 weeks.

DRUGinsulin glargine

Injected subcutaneously (under the skin) once daily. Subjects will start on 10 IU once daily and the dose will be adjusted according to fasting plasma glucose.

Inclusion criteria

* Male or female, 18 years or older at the time of signing informed consent * Insulin-naïve subjects diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and on stable diabetes treatment with metformin or metformin and SU (metformin 1500 mg or higher or maximum tolerated dose and SU half of maximum allowed dose according to national label or higher) for at least 90 days before screening. Stable is defined as unchanged medication and unchanged dose * HbA1c 7.0 - 10.0% (53 - 86 mmol/mol) both inclusive

Exclusion criteria

An exception is short-term treatment (7 days or less in total) with insulin in connection with intercurrent illness * History of chronic or idiopathic acute pancreatitis * Screening calcitonin value greater than or equal to 50 ng/L * Personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome 2 * Severe renal impairment defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) less than 30 mL/min/1.73 m\^2 per modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) formula (4 variable version) * Acute coronary or cerebrovascular event within 90 days before randomisation * Heart failure, New York Heart Association Class IV * Known proliferative retinopathy or maculopathy requiring acute treatment according to the opinion of the investigator * Diagnosis of malignant neoplasm in the previous 5 years (except basal cell skin cancer or squamous cell skin cancer) * Mental inability, unwillingness or language barrier precluding adequate understanding of or compliance with study procedures

PRO questionnaire (SF-36v2™) measured the HRQoL on 8 domains on individual scale ranges. The scores 0-100 (where higher scores indicated a better HRQoL) from the SF-36 were converted to a norm-based score using a T-score transformation in order to obtain a direct interpretation in relation to the distribution of the scores in the 1998 U.S. general population.

This questionnaire contained 8 components and measured the treatment for diabetes (including insulin, tablets and/or diet) in terms of convenience, flexibility and general feelings regarding treatment. The value presented is the 'Treatment Satisfaction' summary score, which is the sum of 6 of the 8 items of the DTSQs questionnaire. Response options range from 6 (best case) to 0 (worst case). Total scores for treatment satisfaction range from 0-36. Higher scores indicate higher satisfaction. The values displayed are the estimated mean change from baseline to week 30.

Participants by arm

ArmCount
Semaglutide 0.5mg/Week
Subjects on semaglutide followed a fixed dose-escalation. The maintenance dose of 0.5 mg was to be reached after 4 doses (4 weeks) of 0.25 mg semaglutide. Doses could not be changed during the trial after the maintenance dose had been reached. One test pen was to be supplied per subject at the screening visit in order to ensure the subject's willingness and ability to self-inject. The test pen contained semaglutide placebo, solution for injection, 1.5 mL prefilled PDS290 pen-injector and was to be administered once. The PDS290 pen-injector for semaglutide is a prefilled pen integrated with a 1.5 mL cartridge containing semaglutide 1.34 mg/mL and is designed to be used with NovoFine®, NovoFine® Plus and NovoTwist® disposable needles. Once weekly (same day of the week) administered by s.c. injection in thigh, abdomen or upper arm, at any time of the day.
362
Semaglutide 1.0 mg/Week
Subjects randomised to semaglutide followed a fixed dose-escalation regimen. The maintenance dose of 1.0 mg was to be reached after 4 doses (4 weeks) of 0.25 mg, followed by 4 doses (4 weeks) of 0.5 mg semaglutide. Doses could not be changed during the trial after the maintenance dose had been reached. One test pen was to be supplied per subject at the screening visit in order to ensure the subject's willingness and ability to self-inject. The test pen contained semaglutide placebo, solution for injection, 1.5 mL prefilled PDS290 pen-injector and was to be administered once.

Insulin Glargine
Subjects on insulin glargine were to start on 10 IU s.c. injected OD. The insulin dose adjustment had to aim to reach a pre-breakfast FPG of 4.0 to \<5.5 mmol/L (71- \<100 mg/dL). Once daily solution for injection in a 3 mL pre-filled SoloStar® pen to be administered in the thigh, abdomen or upper arm, at any time of the day
