About this study

Official title: A 26-week Trial Comparing the Effect and Safety of Once Weekly Insulin Icodec and Once Daily Insulin Degludec, Both With or Without Non-insulin Anti-diabetic Drugs, in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Treated With Basal Insulin

This study compares insulin icodec (a new insulin taken once a week) to insulin degludec (an insulin taken once daily which is already available on the market) in people with type 2 diabetes.

The study will look at how well insulin icodec taken weekly controls blood sugar compared to insulin degludec taken daily. Participants will either get insulin icodec that participants will have to inject once a week on the same day of the week or insulin degludec that participants will have to inject once a day at the same time every day. Which treatment participants get is decided by chance.

Read more

The insulin is injected with a needle in a skin fold in the thigh, upper arm or stomach.

The study will last for about 8 months. Participants will have 17 clinic visits and 13 phone calls with the study doctor. At 8 clinic visits participants will have blood samples taken. At 4 clinic visits participants cannot eat or drink (except for water) for 8 hours before the visit.

Participants will be asked to wear a sensor that measures their blood sugar all the time in 3 periods for a total of 13 weeks (about 3 months) during the study.

Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to become pregnant during the study period.

Being tested
Insulin degludec, Insulin Icodec

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in Glycated Haemoglobin (HbA1c)

    Change in HbA1c from baseline week 0 to week 26 is presented. The outcome data was evaluated based on the in-trial observation period. In-trial observation period started at randomisation and ended at the date of: The last direct participant-site contact, withdrawal for participants who withdrew their informed consent, the last participant-investigator contact as defined by the investigator for participants who were lost to follow-up (i.e., possibly an unscheduled phone visit) and death for participants who died before any of the above.

    Measured: Baseline (Week 0), Week 26

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Change in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG)

    Change in FPG from baseline week 0 to week 26 is presented. The outcome data was evaluated based on the in-trial observation period. In-trial observation period started at randomisation and ended at the date of: The last direct participant-site contact, withdrawal for participants who withdrew their informed consent, the last participant-investigator contact as defined by the investigator for participants who were lost to follow-up (i.e., possibly an unscheduled phone visit) and death for participants who died before any of the above.

    Measured: Baseline (Week 0), Week 26

  2. Percentage of Time in Target-range 3.9-10.0 Millimoles Per Liter (mmol/L) (70-180 Milligrams Per Deciliter [mg/dL]) Using Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System

    The percentage of time in target-range 3.9-10.0 mmol/L (70-180 milligrams per deciliter [mg/dL]) using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system is presented. Time in target range is defined as 100 times the number of recorded measurements in glycaemic target range 3.9-10.0 mmol/L (70-180 mg/dL), both inclusive, divided by the total number of recorded measurements. The outcome data was evaluated based on the in-trial observation period. In-trial observation period started at randomisation and ended at the date of: The last direct participant-site contact, withdrawal for participants who withdrew their informed consent, the last participant-investigator contact as defined by the investigator for participants who were lost to follow-up (i.e., possibly an unscheduled phone visit) and death for participants who died before any of the above.

    Measured: From week 22 to week 26

  3. Change in Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (DTSQs) in Total Treatment Satisfaction

    Change in DTSQs in total treatment satisfaction from baseline (week 0) to week 26 is presented. The DTSQ domain score in total treatment satisfaction was calculated by adding the six item scores of items 1, 4-8. Higher scores indicate higher levels of treatment satisfaction for items 1, 4 -8. For items 2 and 3 a higher score indicates a participant perceived experience of hyperglycaemia and hypoglycaemia. Lower scores indicate a perception of blood glucose levels being unacceptably high (item 2) or low (item 3). The score has a minimum of 0 and a maximum of 36. The outcome data was evaluated based on in-trial observation period. In-trial observation period started at randomisation and ended at the date of: Last direct participant-site contact, withdrawal for participants who withdrew their informed consent, last participant-investigator contact as defined by the investigator for participants who were lost to follow-up and death for participants who died before any of the above.

    Measured: Baseline (Week 0), Week 26

  4. Number of Severe Hypoglycaemic Episodes (Level 3)

    Number of severe hypoglycaemic episodes (level 3) is presented. Severe hypoglycaemia (level 3) is defined as hypoglycaemia with severe cognitive impairment requiring external assistance for recovery. The outcome data was evaluated based on the on-treatment observation period. The on-treatment period started at the date of first dose of trial product as recorded on the electronic case report form (eCRF), and ended at the first date of any of the following: The end of trial visit (V30), the last date on trial product + 5 weeks for once daily insulin and + 6 weeks for once weekly insulin (corresponding to 5 weeks after the end of the dosing interval for both treatment arms) and the end-date for the in-trial observation period. The on-treatment period represented the time period in which a participant was considered exposed to trial product.

    Measured: From baseline (week 0) to week 31

  5. Number of Clinically Significant Hypoglycaemic Episodes (Level 2) (<3.0 mmol/L (54 mg/dL), Confirmed by BG Meter)

    Number of clinically significant hypoglycaemic episodes (level 2) (<3.0 mmol/L (54 mg/dL), confirmed by blood glucose (BG) meter) is presented. Clinically significant hypoglycaemia (level 2) is defined as plasma glucose value of less than (<) 3.0 mmol/L (54 mg/dL) confirmed by BG meter. The outcome data was evaluated based on the on-treatment observation period. The on-treatment period started at the date of first dose of trial product as recorded on the electronic case report form (eCRF), and ended at the first date of any of the following: The end of trial visit (V30), the last date on trial product + 5 weeks for once daily insulin and + 6 weeks for once weekly insulin (corresponding to 5 weeks after the end of the dosing interval for both treatment arms) and the end-date for the in-trial observation period. The on-treatment period represented the time period in which a participant was considered exposed to trial product.

    Measured: From baseline (week 0) to week 31

  6. Number of Clinically Significant Hypoglycaemic Episodes (Level 2) (<3.0 mmol/L (54 mg/dL), Confirmed by BG Meter) or Severe Hypoglycaemic Episodes (Level 3)

    Number of clinically significant hypoglycaemic episodes (level 2) (<3.0 mmol/L (54 mg/dL), confirmed by blood glucose (BG) meter) or severe hypoglycaemic episodes (level 3) is presented. Clinically significant hypoglycaemia (level 2) is defined as plasma glucose value of < 3.0 mmol/L (54 mg/dL) confirmed by BG meter. Severe hypoglycaemia (level 3) is defined as hypoglycaemia with severe cognitive impairment requiring external assistance for recovery. The outcome data was evaluated based on the in-trial observation period. The on-treatment period started at the date of first dose of trial product as recorded on the electronic case report form (eCRF), and ended at the first date of any of the following: The end of trial visit (V30), the last date on trial product + 5 weeks for once daily insulin and + 6 weeks for once weekly insulin (corresponding to 5 weeks after the end of the dosing interval for both treatment arms) and the end-date for the in-trial observation period.

    Measured: From baseline (week 0) to week 31

  7. Percentage of Time Spent < 3.0 mmol/L (54 mg/dL) Using Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System
