Registration Number
NCT01278160
Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

This trial is conducted in Asia. The aim of the trial is to compare the effect on glycaemic control of biphasic insulin aspart 30 twice daily with two different dosage split regimens for Chinese subjects with type 2 diabetes who did not achieve the treatment target of a glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) below 7% in trial BIASP-3756 (NCT01123980).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Glycosylated Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) From BaselineWeek 0, week 16
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
9-point SMPG (Self Measured Plasma Glucose) ProfileWeek 16

A 9-point SMPG profile included measurements before and 120 minutes after start of breakfast, lunch and main evening meal, measurements prior to bedtime and at 2:00 -4:00 a.m., and one before breakfast the following day

Percentage of Subjects Achieving HbA1c Below 7.0%Week 16

The percentage of subjects achieving the treatment target for glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) after 16 weeks of treatment

Percentage of Subjects Achieving HbA1c Below or Equal to 6.5%Week 16

The percentage of subjects achieving the treatment target for glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) after 16 weeks of treatment

Number of Treatment Emergent Hypoglycaemic EpisodesWeeks 0-16

Treatment emergent hypoglycaemic episodes (hypos): those that happened between treatment and one day after last drug day. Hypos summarised based on American Diabetes Association classification. Severe hypos: episodes requiring another person to actively administer resuscitative actions. Minor hypos: episodes with symptoms with plasma glucose below 3.1 mmol/L (56 mg/dL) handled by the subject, or any asymptomatic plasma glucose below 3.1 mmol/L (56 mg/dL). Diurnal period: between 06:00 and 23:59 (both included). Nocturnal period: between 00:00 and 05:59 a.m. (both included).
