About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Open-label, Randomized, Crossover Design Clinical Trial in Healthy Normal Volunteers to Evaluate Insulin Exposure and Effect Following Inhalation of Technosphere® Insulin Inhalation Powder at Multiple Doses Using the Gen2C Inhaler

This is an open-Label, Randomized Study in Healthy Normal Volunteers looking at exposure and effects (PK/PD) of multiple doses of Technosphere® Insulin (TI) using the Gen2C inhaler.

Read the detailed description

Healthy Normal Volunteers will be randomized to a sequence of 4 different doses of Technosphere® Insulin (TI), inhaled using the Gen2C device, and one dose of subcutaneously injected Regular Human Insulin. A euglycemic clamp procedure will be performed at each dosing visit. The purpose of this study is to determine the insulin dose proportionality/linearity of Technosphere® Insulin (TI) Inhalation Powder based on the AUCo-180 after administration of the following doses using the Gen2C inhaler:

  • 10 U (one 10 U cartridge)
  • 30 U (one 10 U and one 20 U cartridge)
  • 60 U (three 20 U cartridges)
  • 80 U (four 20 U cartridges)

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. area-under-the-serum insulin concentration versus time curve (AUC0-240min) for inhaled Technosphere Insulin (TI) post-dosing of a TI dose (10 U, 30 U, 60 U or 80U). Time points: 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 180 and 240 minutes post-TI dosing

    Measured: crossover 4 times over the course of up to 5 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Area-under-the-serum insulin concentration versus time curve (AUC0-240min) for inhaled Technosphere Insulin (TI) compared to that of subcutaneous regular human insulin (RHI)

    Timepoints: 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 180 and 240 minutes after administration of TI dosing; 0, 15, 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240, 300, 360, 480 and 600 minutes after RHI dosing

    Measured: crossover 5 times over the course of up to 6 weeks

  2. Area-under-the-serum glucose infusion rate (GIR AUC0-240min) for TI compared to AUC0-600min for RHI

    Timepoints for TI: 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 180 and 240 minutes after TI dosing Timepoints: 0, 15, 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240, 300, 360, 480 and 600 minutes after RHI dosing

    Measured: crossover 5 times over the course of up to 6 weeks

  3. Safety variables included adverse events (AEs), clinical laboratory tests, vital signs and physical examinations

    Measured: crossover 5 times for up to 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Technosphere Insulin Inhalation Powder using the Gen2C inhaler and Regular Human Insulin in people with Healthy, run by Mannkind Corporation at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 19 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Sep 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

area-under-the-serum insulin concentration versus time curve (AUC0-240min) for inhaled Technosphere Insulin (TI) post-dosing of a TI dose (10 U, 30 U, 60 U or 80U). Time points: 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 180 and 240 minutes post-TI dosing (time frame: crossover 4 times over the course of up to 5 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Sep 2012.
