Clinical Trial Summary

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this clinical trial is to compare the change in trunk fat mass, assessed by Double Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) after 26 weeks of treatment with insulin detemir or insulin NPH (Neutral Protamine Hagedorn) (both combined with insulin aspart at the main meals) in overweight and obese subjects with type 2 diabetes.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• Subjects with type 2 diabetes who have been treated with 2 or 3 doses of insulin (one of them must be a premix) for at least 3 months prior to inclusion in trial

• Glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) between 7.0-11.0 %

Exclusion Criteria:

• Treatment with any oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) in the last 6 months except metformin (subjects currently treated with metformin within the interval of 1000 - 2550 mg daily may be included in the trial. The dose should have remained unchanged for a period of 2 months prior to randomisation and should be expected to remain unchanged throughout the trial period)

• Use of approved weight lowering pharmacotherapy (e.g. orlistat, sibutramin, rimonabant) or obesity induced by drug treatment (e.g. corticosteroids, Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), tricyclic anti-depressants, atypical anti-psychotics)

• Previous or planned surgical treatment of obesity

• Total daily insulin dose higher or equal 2 IU/kg

• Proliferative retinopathy or maculopathy that has required acute treatment within the last six months

• Receipt of any investigational drug within 1 month prior to this trial

• Cardiac disease defined according to New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III or IV, unstable angina pectoris and/or myocardial infarction within the last 6 months previous to the selection
