About this study

Official title: A Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Single Dose, Dose Escalation Trial With Insulin 454 in Healthy Male Subjects, Followed by a Two-period Cross-over Trial With Insulin 454 and Insulatard® in Male Subjects With Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (the exposure of the trial drug in the body) and pharmacodynamics (the effect of the investigated drug on the body) of insulin degludec (insulin 454), an explorative formulation, not similar to the proposed commerical formulation.

Being tested
insulin degludec, placebo, isophane human insulin
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1, Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • insulin degludecDrug

    Ascending single doses - 5 dose levels. Escalation to next dose level will be performed following evaluation of safety data.

  • placeboDrug

    Ascending single doses - 5 dose levels

  • insulin degludecDrug

    A single dose corresponding to that of isophane human insulin

  • isophane human insulinDrug

    A single dose of 0.4 IU/kg is administered to subjects with type 1 diabetes while a single dose of 0.6 IU/kg is administered to subjects with type 2 diabetes

What is being measured

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

  1. Frequency of adverse events (trial part 1 only)

  2. Area under the glucose infusion rate curve (trial part 2 only)

    Measured: 0-24 hours after dosing

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Area under the serum insulin concentration curve

    Measured: 0-72 hours after dosing

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing insulin degludec and isophane human insulin in people with Diabetes and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 1 site in Germany.

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 9 inclusion and 5 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 23 Oct 2015. 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 Germany. 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?

Frequency of adverse events (trial part 1 only) (time frame: From day prior to dosing and until 10-14 days after dosing). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 23 Oct 2015.
