Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in HbA1c (Glycosylated Haemoglobin) (%)Week 0 to week 16

Percentage point change in glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) from baseline (week 0) to 16 Weeks. Change from baseline summary statistics at week 16 contains only those who had both baseline and week 16 assesment.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incidence of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)After 16 weeks of treatment

A Treatment Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) was defined as an event with onset date on or after the first day of exposure to randomised treatment and no later than 7 days after the last day on randomised treatment.

Number of Hyperglycaemic Episodes (PG Above 14.0 mmol/L (250 mg/dL) Where Subject Looks/Feels Ill With Ketosis (Blood Ketones Above 1.5 mmol/L)After 16 weeks of treatment

The episode of hyperglycaemia was noted when the glucose measurement was 14.0mmol/L or above and the subject looked /felt ill. The ketone meaurement involved an additional finger prick and ketosis was considered present if blood ketones were higher than 1.5mmol/L

Number of Treatment Emergent Nocturnal Confirmed Hypoglycaemic EpisodesAfter 16 weeks of treatment

The confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes occurring between 23:00 and 07:00 were considered for this endpoint

Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucoseweek 0, week 16

Change from baseline in FPG after 16 weeks of treatment. Change from baseline summary statistics at week 16 contains only those who had both baseline and week 16 assesment.

Number of Treatment Emergent Confirmed Hypoglycaemic Episodes (Plasma Glucose (PG) Below 3.1mmol/L (56mg/dL) or Severe Hypoglycaemia)After 16 weeks of treatment

Treatment emergent hypoglycaemic episodes (PG \< 3.1 mmol/L (56 mg/dL) or severe hypoglycaemia).

Confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes were defined as episodes that were either:

1. Severe (i.e. the child is having altered mental status and cannot assist in their care, is semiconscious or unconscious or in coma with or without convulsions and may require parenteral therapy (glucagon or i.v. glucose), or

2. An episode biochemically confirmed by PG value of \<3.1 mmol/L (56 mg/dL), with or without symptoms consistent with hypoglycaemia.

Number of Hyperglycaemic Episodes (PG Above 14.0 mmol/L (250 mg/dL) Where Subject Looks/Feels IllAfter 16 weeks of treatment

The episode of hyperglycaemia was noted when the glucose measurement was 14.0mmol/L or above and the subject looked /felt ill.
