  Purpose

This trial is conducted in the United States of America (USA) and Canada. The aim of this research is to compare the efficacy (reduction in HbA1c and blood glucose) and pulmonary safety (pulmonary function, chest x-rays) of mealtime inhaled insulin with subcutaneous insulin aspart both in combination with insulin determir in Type 1 Diabetes.

Arms Assigned Interventions
Experimental: A Drug: inhaled human insulin
Treat-to-target dose titration scheme, inhalation.
Drug: insulin detemir
Injection s.c., 50% of daily dose
Other Name: Levemir, NN304
Active Comparator: B Drug: insulin detemir
Injection s.c., 50% of daily dose
Other Name: Levemir, NN304
Drug: insulin aspart
Treat-to-target dose titration scheme, injection s.c.

Detailed Description:

The decision to discontinue the development of AERx® is not due to any safety concerns. An analysis concluded that fast-acting inhaled insulin in the form it is known today, is unlikely to offer significant clinical or convenience benefits over injections of modern insulin with pen devices.
