Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Change in HbA1c
Time Frame: 6 months
To evaluate the mean changes in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) from baseline to the end of the study in subjects with type 1 diabetes after treatment for 6 months with Viaject in comparison to the mean changes in HbA1c from baseline to end of study in subjects treated with regular human insulin (RHI).
