Primary outcomePrimary: Main Trial (Primary Endpoint): Change in Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) After 26 Weeks of Treatment — -0.73; -0.68 percentage of glycosylated haemoglobin

Summary

This trial is conducted in Europe, Oceania, and the United States of America (USA). The aim of this clinical trial is to compare NN5401 (insulin degludec/insulin aspart (IDegAsp)) with insulin detemir (IDet) plus insulin aspart in patients with type 1 diabetes (main period) followed by the extension period comparing the long-term safety of NN5401 plus insulin aspart with insulin detemir plus insulin aspart. The main period is registered internally at Novo Nordisk as NN5401-3594 while the extension period is registered as NN5401-3645.
