- Registration Number
- NCT02128932
- Lead Sponsor
- Novo Nordisk A/S
- 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.

- 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.

- Any disorder which, in the opinion of the Investigator might jeopardise subject's safety or compliance with the protocol
- Treatment with any glucose lowering agent(s) other than stated in the inclusion criteria in a period of 90 days before screening. An exception is short-term treatment (7 days or less in total) with insulin in connection with intercurrent illness

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in HbA1c From Baseline Week 0, week 30 Change in HbA1c from baseline to week 30.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in Body Weight From Baseline Week 0, week 30 Change in body weight from baseline to week 30.
Change in Fasting Plasma Glucose From Baseline Week 0, week 30 Change in fasting plasma glucose from baseline to week 30.
Change in Diastolic Blood Pressure. Week 0, week 30 Change in diastolic blood pressure from baseline to week 30.
Change in Systolic Blood Pressure. Week 0, week 30 Change in systolic blood pressure from baseline to week 30.
Change in Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) Questionnaire, Questionnaire SF-36v2™ Week 0, week 30 The Short Form (SF)-36v2™ patient reported outcomes (PRO) questionnaire was used to assess the subject's overall health related quality of life (HRQoL. 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. The (SF-36v2™) values displayed are the estimated mean change from baseline to week 30.
Change in Patient Reported Outcome Questionnaires. (PROs), Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (DTSQs) Week 0, week 30 The Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (DTSQs) questionnaire was to be used to assess a subject's treatment satisfaction. 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.
