简要总结
The primary objective of this study is to ascertain the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) bioequivalence of a subcutaneous (SC) injection of 1 mg (1 IU) of Glucagon (Fresenius Kabi USA) in comparison to the reference product, GlucaGen® (Bedford Laboratories), 1 mg (1 IU), SC in healthy adult subjects.
详细描述
This investigation will serve as a basis for Fresenius Kabi USA, to obtain regulatory approval of a synthetic version of Glucagon (Fresenius Kabi USA), 1 mg (1 IU), SC. The aim is to conduct direct comparative pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of 1 mg (1 IU) of synthetic Glucagon (Fresenius Kabi USA) with that of GlucaGen® (manufactured by Novo Nordisk A/S, marketed by Bedford Laboratories), 1 mg (1 IU), SC in healthy adult subjects. This study will examine a comparison of the bioavailability pharmacokinetics of 1 mg (1 IU) of Glucagon (Fresenius Kabi USA) by having each subject receive in each period either a single dose of 1 mg (1 IU) of Glucagon (Fresenius Kabi USA) or a single dose of GlucaGen® (Bedford Laboratories), 1 mg (1 IU), via subcutaneous injection. Blood samples will be collected three (3) times starting 2 hours prior to dosing and at intervals over 4 hours post dose. The concentrations of glucagon and glucose will be measured.

- •Receipt of any drug as part of a research study within 30 days prior to dosing.
- •Drug or alcohol addiction requiring treatment in the past 12 months.
- •Donation or significant loss of whole blood (480 ml or more) within 3 months or plasma within 14 days prior to dosing.
- •Positive test results for HIV, Hepatitis B surface antigen or Hepatitis C antibody.
- •Unable, or unwilling to tolerate multiple venipunctures.
- •Has difficulty fasting or consuming the standard meals that will be provided.
- •No prescription medications (other than contraceptives) used within 14 days prior to initial study dosing and throughout the times of sample collection each period.
- •No over-the-counter medications within 14 days prior to each dosing and throughout the times of sample collection each period.
- •No alcohol, caffeine/xanthine or grapefruit containing food or beverages (e.g. chocolate, coffee, tea, cola, Fresca®) ingested within 3 days prior to each dosing and throughout the times of sample collection each period.
- •All subjects will have a saliva/urine test for drugs of abuse at check- in each study period. Subjects with positive results will be withdrawn from the study.
- •All female subjects will be screened for pregnancy at check-in each study period with a urine pregnancy test. Subjects with positive results will be withdrawn from the study.
