A Trial Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of Insulin Degludec Once Daily in Insulin naïve Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus When Titrated Using Two Different Titration Algorithms (BEGIN™: ONCE SIMPLE USE)
Abstract
This trial is conducted in Europe and the United States of America (USA). The aim of this trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of NN1250 (insulin degludec (IDeg)) once daily in insulin naïve subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus when titrated using two different self-titration algorithms (dose individually adjusted) in combination with metformin.
Conditions: Diabetes, Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2.
Primary outcome: Change in Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c).
Enrollment: 222 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 222 participants or records.
