  Purpose

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:
  • Change in Glycosylated Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) From Baseline [ Time Frame: Week 0, week 16 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • 9-point SMPG (Self Measured Plasma Glucose) Profile [ Time Frame: Week 16 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    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% [ Time Frame: Week 16 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    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% [ Time Frame: Week 16 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    The percentage of subjects achieving the treatment target for glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) after 16 weeks of treatment

  • Number of Treatment Emergent Hypoglycaemic Episodes [ Time Frame: Weeks 0-16 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    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).

Arms Assigned Interventions
Experimental: BIAsp 30 (2:1)
After discontinuation of previous treatment of once daily biphasic insulin aspart 30 (BIAsp 30) or insulin glargine combined with metformin and glimepiride in trial BIAsp-3756, subjects were adminstered BIAsp 30 twice daily with initial dosage split regimen of 2/3 and 1/3 total daily dose before breakfast and before dinner, respectively combined with metformin administered orally with meals
 Drug: biphasic insulin aspart 30
Administered subcutaneously (under the skin), twice daily with a dosage of 2/3 and 1/3 total daily dose before breakfast and before dinner, in combination with metformin.
Drug: metformin
Tablets 500 mg administered orally with meals. Pre-trial dose and regimen unchanged
Experimental: BIAsp 30 (1:1)
After discontinuation of previous treatment of once daily biphasic insulin aspart 30 (BIAsp 30) or insulin glargine combined with metformin and glimepiride in trial BIAsp-3756, subjects were adminstered BIAsp 30 twice daily with initial dosage split regimen of 1/2 and 1/2 total daily dose before breakfast and before dinner, respectively combined with metformin administered orally with meals
 Drug: biphasic insulin aspart 30
Administered subcutaneously (under the skin), twice daily with a split dosage of 1/2 and 1/2 total daily dose before breakfast and before dinner, in combination with metformin.
Drug: metformin
Tablets 500 mg administered orally with meals. Pre-trial dose and regimen unchanged
