Comparison of NN5401 Versus Insulin Glargine, Both Combined With Metformin Treatment, in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes (BOOST™)

October 26, 2016 updated by: Novo Nordisk A/S

NN5401-3590: A Trial Comparing Efficacy and Safety of NN5401 With Insulin Glargine in Insulin Naive Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes (BOOST™ : START 1) / NN5401-3726: An Extension Trial Comparing Safety and Efficacy of NN5401 With Insulin Glargine in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes (BOOST™: START 1)

This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe and the United States of America (USA). The aim of this trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of NN5401 (insulin degludec/insulin aspart (IDegAsp)) with insulin glargine (IGlar), both as add-on to subject's ongoing treatment with metformin + at least one OAD (oral anti-diabetic drug).

The main period is registered internally at Novo Nordisk as NN5401-3590 while the extension period is registered as NN5401-3726.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Main Trial (Primary Endpoint): Change in Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) After 26 Weeks of Treatment
Time Frame: Week 0, Week 26
Change from baseline in HbA1c after 26 weeks of treatment.
Week 0, Week 26
Extension Trial (Primary Endpoint): Rate of Confirmed Hypoglycaemic Episodes
Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 53 + 7 days follow up
Rate of confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes per 100 patient years of exposure (PYE). Confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes consisted of severe hypoglycaemia as well as minor hypoglycaemic episodes. Severe hypoglycaemic episodes are defined as requiring assistance to administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions. Minor hypoglycaemic episodes are defined as able to treat her/himself and plasma glucose below 3.1 mmol/L.
Week 0 to Week 53 + 7 days follow up
Extension Trial (Primary Endpoint): Rate of Nocturnal Confirmed Hypoglycaemic Episodes
Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 53 + 7 days follow up
Rate of confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes per 100 patient years of exposure (PYE). Confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes consisted of severe hypoglycaemia as well as minor hypoglycaemic episodes. Severe hypoglycaemic episodes are defined as requiring assistance to administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions. Minor hypoglycaemic episodes are defined as able to treat her/himself and plasma glucose below 3.1 mmol/L. Nocturnal hypoglycaemic episodes are defined as occurring between 00:01 and 05:59 a.m.
Week 0 to Week 53 + 7 days follow up
Extension Trial (Primary Endpoint): Rate of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (AEs)
Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 53 + 7 days follow up
Corresponds to rate of AEs per 100 patient years of exposure. Severity assessed by investigator. Mild:no or transient symptoms, no interference with the subject's daily activities. Moderate: marked symptoms, moderate interference with the subject's daily activities. Severe: considerable interference with the subject's daily activities, unacceptable. Serious AE: AE that at any dose results in any of the following: death, a life-threatening experience, in-subject hospitalisation/prolongation of existing hospitalisation, persistent/significant disability/incapacity/congenital anomaly/birth defect
Week 0 to Week 53 + 7 days follow up

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Extension Trial (Secondary Endpoint): Change in Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) After 52 Weeks of Treatment
Time Frame: Week 0, Week 53
Change from baseline in HbA1c after 52 weeks of treatment.
Week 0, Week 53
Main Trial (Secondary Endpoint): Mean of 9-point Self Measured Plasma Glucose Profile (SMPG) at Week 26
Time Frame: Week 26
Mean of SMPG at 26 weeks of treatment. Plasma glucose measured: before breakfast, 90 minutes after start of breakfast, before lunch, 90 minutes after start of lunch, before dinner, 90 minutes after start of dinner, bedtime, at 4 am and before breakfast.
Week 26
