582

Of the 582 randomised subjects, 42.1% were female, 77.0% were White, 21.1% were Asian, 1.9% were Black/African American and 3.4% were Hispanic/Latino. Their mean baseline characteristics were, age: 44.18 years, HbA1c: 7.61%, FPG: 9.75 mmol/L (175.67 mg/dL), BMI: 26.51 kg/m2, diabetes duration: 19.51 years.

A total of 582 basal-bolus treated subjects with T1D were randomised, 290 in the insulin icodec arm and 292 to insulin degludec. A total of 290 subjects (100%) were exposed to insulin icodec and 292 subjects (100%) were exposed to insulin degludec, while 272 (93.8%) and 283 subjects (96.9%), respectively, completed week 26 visit without permanent discontinuation of trial product. In the extension part, 262 (90.3%) in the insulin icodec arm and 278 (95.2%) subjects in the insulin degludec arm completed the week 52 visit without permanent discontinuation of trial product.

Almost all ADA positive samples were cross-reactive to human insulin. No clinically relevant consequence of ADA on safety or efficacy parameters were identified. -Medication errors incl. misuse and abuse: 18 events in insulin icodec and 8 events in insulin degludec -Most of the events (15 of 18 events) of medication error in the insulin icodec group happened up until and including study day 8 of main phase coinciding with when the patients in the insulin icodec treatment group received a one-time additional dose

Based on this 26-week main phase of the trial comparing once-weekly insulin icodec with once-daily insulin degludec, in type 1 diabetic subjects previously treated with basal-bolus insulin, change in HbA1c for insulin icodec was non-inferior to insulin degludec. There was statistically significant difference in change from baseline to week 52 in HbA1c between two treatment arms in favour of insulin degludec. No new safety issues were identified in relation to insulin icodec in this trial.
