Brief Summary:

This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe, South America, and the United States of America (USA).

The aim of the trial is to investigate efficacy and safety of FIAsp in a basal-bolus regimen versus basal insulin therapy, both in combination with metformin in adult subjects with type 2 diabetes.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: FIAsp and basal insulin + metformin
Subjects will receive FIAsp combined with their pre-trial basal insulin (insulin human, insulin detemir or insulin glargine) treatment in combination with their pre-trial metformin.
 Drug: Faster-acting insulin aspart
Administrated subcutaneously (s.c., under the skin) at each main meal.
Other Name: NN1218

Drug: basal insulin
Administrated subcutaneously (s.c., under the skin) once daily.
Active Comparator: Basal insulin + metformin
Subjects will continue their pre-trial basal insulin (insulin human, insulin detemir or insulin glargine) treatment in combination with their pre-trial metformin.
 Drug: basal insulin
Administrated subcutaneously (s.c., under the skin) once daily.


Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change From Baseline in HbA1c [ Time Frame: Week 0, week 18 ]
    For this endpoint, baseline (week 0) and week 18 data are presented, where week 18 data are the "end of trial" data containing last available measurements.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Self-measured Plasma Glucose (SMPG) 7-point Profile: Post Prandial Plasma Glucose (PPG), Overall 2-hour Mean (of Breakfast, Lunch, Main Evening Meal) [ Time Frame: After 18 weeks of randomised treatment ]
    For this endpoint the "end of trial" data containing last available measurements are presented. PPG measurements were recorded by the subjects at 2 hours after each meal (breakfast, lunch and main evening meal) as part of three 7-point profiles (SMPG) prior to the visits. Individual mean meal PPG (post-breakfast, post-lunch, post-main evening meal) was derived from the three measurements.

  2. Self-measured Plasma Glucose (SMPG) 7-point Profile: Prandial Plasma Glucose (PG) Increment, Overall 2-hour Mean (of Breakfast, Lunch, Main Evening Meal) [ Time Frame: After 18 weeks of randomised treatment ]
    For this endpoint the "end of trial" data containing last available measurements are presented. Prandial PG increment for each meal (breakfast, lunch, main evening meal) was derived from the 7-point profiles (SMPG) as the difference between the PPG value 2 hours after each meal and the PG value before each meal. Individual mean meal PPG (post-breakfast, post-lunch, post-main evening meal) was derived from the three measurements.

  3. Change From Baseline in Body Weight [ Time Frame: Week 0, week 18 ]
    For this endpoint, baseline (week 0) and week 18 data are presented, where week 18 data are the "end of trial" data containing last available measurements.

  4. Number of Treatment Emergent Hypoglycaemic Episodes [ Time Frame: Weeks 0-18 ]
    Plasma glucose (PG) was measured and recorded when a hypoglycaemic episode was suspected. All PG values ≤3.9 mmol/L (70 mg/dL) or >3.9 mmol/L (70 mg/dL) when they occurred in conjunction with hypoglycaemic symptoms were recorded by the subject. Numbers of treatment emergent hypoglycaemic episodes were recorded during 18 weeks of treatment.

  5. Number of Adverse Events [ Time Frame: Weeks 0-18 ]
    All adverse events (AEs) described here refer to treatment emergent adverse events (TEAE). A 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, week 18.
