NCT03377699

Brief Summary

The investigators are doing this study to see the effect of insulin degludec in pregnant women with type 1 diabetes, and if it is safe to use. In this study the medicine insulin degludec is compared to another medicine called insulin detemir. Participants will either get insulin degludec or insulin detemir and take it together with a medicine called insulin aspart - which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participants will get pre-filled insulin pens. Participants will need to take blood sugar measurements several times a day. The study will last between 10 and 25 months depending on whether participants are already pregnant when they join the study. The number of visits and the tests ( for example blood and urine samples and ultrasound scans) the participants will have also depends on whether they are pregnant at study start.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Last Planned Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) Prior to Delivery

    Mean of the HbA1c data collected at gestational week (GW) corresponding to last planned visit prior to delivery is presented. This could be either GW 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36. The endpoint was evaluated based on the data from both in-trial and on-treatment observation periods. In-trial observation period started at randomization and ended at the date of trial completion, up to 24 months. The date of trial completion was the date of the final scheduled follow-up visit (delivery + 58 days). For participants who had not attended the follow-up visit, the date of trial completion was the date of the last participant-investigator contact. On-treatment observation period started at the date of first dose of trial product and ended at the date of the last day on trial product, up to 22 months.

    From GW 16 to GW 36

Secondary Outcomes (23)

  • Number of Participants With HbA1c Below or Equal to 6.0% [42 Millimoles Per Mole (mmol/Mol)] From Last Planned HbA1c Prior to Delivery (Yes/no)

    From GW 16 to GW 36

  • Number of Participants With HbA1c Below or Equal to 6.5% (48 mmol/Mol) From Last Planned HbA1c Prior to Delivery (Yes/no)

    From GW 16 to GW 36

  • Last Planned Average Post-prandial Glucose Prior to Delivery (Average of Three Main Meals)

    From GW 16 to GW 36

  • Last Planned Fasting Plasma Glucose Prior to Delivery

    From GW 16 to GW 36

  • Number of Hypoglycaemic Episodes During the Pregnancy Period

    From the first day of pregnancy (date of conception) or randomisation to delivery (maximum 23 months)

  • +18 more secondary outcomes
