IDegLiraInsulin Degludec/Liraglutide (IDegLira: 100 U/3.6 mg per mL) was injected subcutaneously once daily (OD) for a duration of 26 weeks. IDegLira was supplied in a 3 mL pre-filled PDS290 pen-injector with a fixed IDeg/liraglutide ratio of 100 units/3.6 mg per mL solution. IDegLira treatment was initiated at 16 dose steps (containing 16 units IDeg /0.6 mg liraglutide) and adjusted twice weekly based on the mean of three pre-breakfast self-measured plasma glucose (SMPG) values measured on the days of the titration and the two days prior to the titration (target SMPG: 4.0-5.0 mmol/L \[72- 90 mg/dL\]).The maximum daily dose was 50 dose steps (50U IDeg /1.8 mg Lira). All subjects continued with metformin at pre-trial doses (≥ 1500 mg or the maximum tolerated dose), unless there was a safety concern.–12 / 25284 / 252
IGlar + IAspSubjects received insulin glargine plus prandial insulin aspart subcutaneously for duration of 26 weeks. A stable pre- trial OD dose of IGlar (20-50 units, in a 3 mL pre-filled Solostar®) was continued with metformin therapy (≥ 1500 mg or the maximum tolerated dose). IAsp was added to the IGlar therapy with a start dose of 4U using a 3 mL pre-filled FlexPen®, as prandial insulin treatment before each main meal. The dose of IGlar was adjusted twice weekly based on the mean of three pre-breakfast SMPG values measured on the days of the titration and the two days prior to the titration (target SMPG: 4.0-5.0 mmol/L \[72- 90 mg/dL\]). The dose of IAsp was titrated twice weekly based on pre-prandial and bedtime SMPGs, obtained on the three previous days (target SMPG: 4.0 - 6.0 mmol/L).–10 / 25379 / 253
