Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Hypoglycemia
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1
Interventions
Drug: Nasal Glucagon
Drug: Intramuscular Glucagon
Registration Number
NCT03339453
Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare a needle-free treatment of hypoglycemia with nasal glucagon (study drug) to a marketed glucagon administered by the intramuscular (IM) route, in participants with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants Achieving Treatment Success During Controlled Insulin-Induced HypoglycemiaPre-dose up to 30 minutes post each glucagon administration

Treatment success is defined as an increase in plasma glucose to greater than or equal to (≥) 70 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) or an increase of ≥20 mg/dL from plasma glucose nadir, without receiving additional actions to increase the plasma glucose concentration. Nadir is defined as the minimum plasma glucose concentration at the time of or within 10 minutes following glucagon administration.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Pharmacodynamics (PD): Change From Baseline in Maximal Blood Glucose (BGmax)Pre-dose; 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 90 minutes after glucagon administration
PK: Time to Maximum Concentration (Tmax) of Baseline Adjusted GlucagonPre-dose; 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 90, 120, and 240 minutes after glucagon administration
PD: Time to Maximum Concentration (Tmax) of Baseline-Adjusted GlucosePre-dose; 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 90 minutes after glucagon administration
Pharmacokinetics (PK): Area Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time Zero to Tlast (AUC[0-tlast]) of Baseline Adjusted GlucagonPre-dose; 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 90, 120, and 240 minutes after glucagon administration
PK: Maximum Change From Baseline Concentration (Cmax) of GlucagonPre-dose; 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 90, 120, and 240 minutes after glucagon administration
