Brief Summary:
This trial is conducted globally. The aim of this trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of insulin degludec/liraglutide (IDegLira) versus insulin degludec (IDeg) and liraglutide (Lira) in subjects with type 2 diabetes. Subjects are to continue their pre-trial treatment with metformin or metformin + pioglitazone throughout the entire trial.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Diabetes Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 Drug: insulin degludec/liraglutide Drug: insulin degludec Drug: liraglutide Phase 3

Arms and Interventions
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: IDeg Drug: insulin degludec
Insulin degludec treatment will be initiated with 10 U and titrated (individually adjusted) twice weekly according to the mean SMPG (fasting). Insulin degludec is injected subcutaneously (under the skin) once daily.
Experimental: IDegLira Drug: insulin degludec/liraglutide
Insulin degludec/liraglutide treatment will be initiated and titrated (individually adjusted) twice weekly according to the mean self measured plasma glucose (SMPG) (fasting). Insulin degludec/liraglutide is injected subcutaneously (under the skin) once daily.
Experimental: Lira Drug: liraglutide
Liraglutide will be started with 0.6 mg and subsequent 0.6 mg weekly dose escalation to 1.8 mg. Liraglutide dose of 1.8 mg/day will be continued for the remaining part of the trial. Liraglutide is injected subcutaneously (under the skin) once daily.


Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Mean Change From Baseline in HbA1c (Glycosylated Haemoglobin) at Week 26. [ Time Frame: Week 0, week 26 ]
    Values of mean change in HbA1c.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Mean Change From Baseline in Body Weight at Week 26 [ Time Frame: Week 0, Week 26 ]
    Values of mean change in body weight.

  2. Number of Hypoglycaemic Episodes [ Time Frame: Weeks 0-26 ]
    Reported hypoglycemaic episodes are number of hypoglycemic events per 100 patient years of exposure.

  3. Change From Baseline in Incremental Area Under the Curve 0-4h (iAUC0-4h) Derived From the Glucose Concentration Profile During Meal Test [ Time Frame: Week 0, Week 26 ]
    Values of mean change in normalised iAUC0-4h values based on LOCF data derived from the glucose concentration profiles during a meal test. The meal test was performed at selected sites at baseline and after 26 weeks of treatment in the main trial period. The incremental AUC was calculated using the trapezoidal method and the resulting area was divided length of the observation period to yield the (normalised) prandial increment in mmol/L using the available valid glucose observations and the associated actual elapsed time point.

  4. Mean Actual Daily Insulin Dose [ Time Frame: Week 26 ]
    Mean of the actual doses recorded at visit 28 (Week 26).

Accordingly, when approximately 50% of the randomised subjects have a HbA1c above 8.3%, the remaining subjects randomised must have a HbA1c of below or equal to 8.3%, or when approximately 50% of the randomised subjects have a HbA1c of below or equal to 8.3%, the remaining subjects randomised must have a HbA1c above 8.3%
  • Male or female, age 18 years or above (Taiwan: 20 years or above for a site 653 in Taiwan: Taichung Veterans General Hospital)
  • Subjects on stable dose of 1-2 OADs (metformin [at least 1500 mg or max tolerated dose] or metformin [at least 1500 mg or max tolerated dose] + pioglitazone [at least 30 mg]) for at least 90 days prior to screening
  • Body Mass Index (BMI) maximum 40 kg/m^2

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Treatment with insulin (except for short-term treatment due to intercurrent illness at the discretion of the Investigator)
  • Treatment with GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonists (eg exenatide, liraglutide), sulphonylurea or dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitors within 90 days prior to trial
