A Trial Comparing Efficacy and Safety of Insulin Degludec/Insulin Aspart and BIAsp 30 in Insulin naïve Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes (BOOST™)

March 13, 2019 updated by: Novo Nordisk A/S

A 26-week, Randomised, Open-label, Multinational, Treat-to-target Trial Comparing Efficacy and Safety of Insulin Degludec/Insulin Aspart (IDegAsp) Twice Daily (BID) and BIAsp 30 BID Both With Metformin in Insulin naïve Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Inadequately Controlled on Metformin Monotherapy or Metformin in Combination With One Additional Oral Antidiabetic Drug (OAD)

This trial is conducted in Africa, Asia and Europe. The aim of the trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of insulin degludec/insulin aspart and BIAsp 30 (biphasic insulin aspart 30) in insulin naïve subjects with type 2 diabetes.

Time Frame: Onset on or after the first day of exposure to investigational product and no later than 7 days after last exposure to investigational product
The pool of severe and minor hypoglycaemic episodes was referred to as confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes, which is presented here. Severe hypoglycaemic episodes were defined as requiring assistance to administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions. Minor hypoglycaemic episodes were defined as able to treat her/himself and plasma glucose below 3.1 mmol/L. Nocturnal hypoglycaemic episodes were defined as occurring between 00:01 and 05:59 am.
Onset on or after the first day of exposure to investigational product and no later than 7 days after last exposure to investigational product
Number of Severe and Minor Treatment Emergent Hypoglycaemic Episodes
Time Frame: Onset on or after the first day of exposure to investigational product and no later than 7 days after last exposure to investigational product
The pool of severe and minor hypoglycaemic episodes was referred to as confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes, which is presented here. Severe hypoglycaemic episodes were defined as requiring assistance to administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions. Minor hypoglycaemic episodes were defined as able to treat her/himself and plasma glucose below 3.1 mmol/L.
Onset on or after the first day of exposure to investigational product and no later than 7 days after last exposure to investigational product
Change From Baseline in Body Weight
Time Frame: Week 0, week 26
Change from baseline in body weight after 26 weeks of treatment.
Week 0, week 26
Responder for HbA1c (Below 7.0%) Without Severe and Minor Treatment Emergent Hypoglycaemic Episodes During the Last 12 Weeks of Treatment Including Only Subjects Exposed for at Least 12 Weeks
Time Frame: Week 26
Responder for HbA1c (<7.0%) without severe and minor treatment emergent hypoglycaemic episodes during the last 12 weeks of treatment. Severe + minor hypoglycaemic episodes = confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes. Severe hypoglycaemic episodes: requiring assistance to administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions. Minor hypoglycaemic episodes: able to treat her/himself and plasma glucose below 3.1 mmol/L.
Week 26
Number of Treatment Emergent AEs (Adverse Events)
Time Frame: Onset on or after the first day of exposure to investigational product and no later than 7 days after exposure to investigational product
A Treatment Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) was defined as an event that had onset date on or after the first day of exposure to randomised treatment and no later than 7 days after the last day of randomised treatment. Severity was assessed by investigator.
Onset on or after the first day of exposure to investigational product and no later than 7 days after exposure to investigational product
