NCT01697657

Brief Summary

This trial is conducted in Africa, Europe and Oceania. The aim of this trial is to investigate whether insulin detemir combined with insulin aspart compared to NPH insulin combined with insulin aspart could reduce the frequency of hypoglycaemic episodes whilst maintaining the same degree of glycaemic control subjects with type 1 diabetes.

Interventions

Subjects were dosed according to individual requirements. Injected subcutaneously (s.c. under the skin) twice daily in the morning and at bedtime for 10 weeks after an initial 6-week titration in treatment period 1 followed by 10 weeks after an initial 6-week titration in treatment period 2

Detemir

Subjects were dosed according to individual requirements. Injected subcutaneously (s.c. under the skin) twice daily in the morning and at bedtime for 10 weeks after an initial 6-week titration in treatment period 1 followed by 10 weeks after an initial 6-week titration in treatment period 2

NPH

Subjects were dosed according to individual requirements. Injected subcutaneously (s.c. under the skin) twice daily before meals for 10 weeks after an initial 6-week titration in treatment period 1 followed by 10 weeks after an initial 6-week titration in treatment period 2
