About this study

Official title: A Trial Investigating the Pharmacokinetic Properties of Insulin Icodec in Subjects With Various Degrees of Hepatic Impairment

Participants will receive one insulin icodec dose, which will be administered in the morning of the day of dosing.

The study will last for about 8 weeks. Participants will have 8 visits with the study doctor in the clinical research unit.

Read more

Insulin icodec will be injected into a skin fold with a small needle (subcutaneous application) using a pen injector prefilled with a volume of 3 mL (about a spoonful).

Participants must not participate if they meet certain conditions called exclusion criteria, such as an age of below 18 years or above 70 years, if participants are over- or underweight, using certain medicines, or have serious health conditions (other than impaired liver function ).

Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or planning to become pregnant during the study period.

What participants receive

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

  • Insulin icodecDrug

    Insulin icodec will be investigated in participants with impaired liver function and subjects with normal liver function. Administered as a single dose subcutaneously (under the skin) The study will last for about 8 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. AUC,Ico,0-inf,SD, Area under the serum insulin icodec concentration-time curve after a single dose

    From 0 hours until infinity after trial product administration (pmol*h/L)

    Measured: Day 1

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Cmax,Ico,SD, Maximum observed serum insulin icodec concentration after a single dose

    From 0 hours until last measurement time after trial product administration (pmol/L)

    Measured: Day 1

  2. tmax,Ico,SD, Time to maximum observed serum insulin icodec concentration after a single dose

    From 0 hours until last measurement time after trial product administration (hours)

    Measured: Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Insulin icodec in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 2 sites in 2 countries.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 12 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Czechia, Slovakia. 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?

AUC,Ico,0-inf,SD, Area under the serum insulin icodec concentration-time curve after a single dose (time frame: Day 1). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04597697, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 12 Jul 2024.
