PLACEBO COMPARATORInterventions
Liraglutide administered subcutaneously (s.c., under the skin) for 36 weeks combined with insulin therapy.
Liraglutide placebo administered subcutaneously (s.c., under the skin) for 36 weeks combined with insulin therapy.
All subjects will continue their pre-trial insulin therapy (basal, premixed or basal-bolus regimen) during the trial. Insulin dose is fixed for the first 16 weeks and for the subsequent 20 weeks, insulin dose is individually adjusted.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Type 2 diabetes mellitus (diagnosed clinically) for at least 6 months
- Current insulin therapy (basal insulin, premixed insulin or basal-bolus regimen) in addition to diet and exercise therapy for at least 12 weeks prior to trial start. Their therapy is stable and fluctuation of total daily insulin dose is within plus/minus 20% for at least 12 weeks prior to trial start and current total daily insulin dose equal to or greater than 10 (I)U/day
- Glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) between 7.5 and 11.0% (both inclusive)
- Body Mass Index (BMI) below 45.0 kg/m\^2
You may not qualify if:
- Anticipated change in concomitant medication known to interfere significantly with glucose metabolism, such as, but not limited to systemic corticosteroids, beta-antagonists or monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors
- Recurrent severe hypoglycaemia (more than 1 severe hypoglycaemic episode during last 12 months) or hypoglycaemic unawareness as judged by the investigator or hospitalisation for diabetic ketoacidosis during the previous 6 months
- Known proliferative retinopathy or maculopathy requiring treatment according to the investigator
- Treatment with glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist within 12 weeks prior to screening
- Treatment with any oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) within 12 weeks prior to screening
