About this study

Official title: DOS [Dosing Optimization Study]: Open-label, Single-arm, Proof-of-Concept Dosing Study of Afrezza® in Adult Subjects 18 Years and Older With Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

MKC-TI-191 is a Phase 4, single-arm, multicenter, proof-of-concept clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of Afrezza, administered according to the current Afrezza prescribing information (PI) compared to a titrated dose, in combination with a basal insulin in adult subjects (≥18 years of age) with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Eligible subjects will be on a stable regimen consisting of a basal bolus insulin therapy prior to screening. The study is composed of up to 4 clinic visits (screening, 2 treatment visits, and a follow-up visit). Two individual doses of Afrezza will be administered during a meal challenge at Visits 2 and 3. The duration of each subject's participation in the trial is expected to be approximately 2 weeks.

Read the detailed description

Screening (Visit 1): Informed consent and California Experimental Subjects Bill of Rights will be signed and eligibility confirmed. Eligible subjects will be enrolled at Visit 1.

Subjects will come into the clinic in a fasting state for a meal challenge and individual dose of Afrezza during Visits 2 and 3. At the beginning of each visit, before their dose of Afrezza, subjects will have FEV1 measurements taken in the clinic. Each meal challenge will consist of 1 to 2 bottles of nutritional shake to be fully consumed within 15 minutes. The nutritional shake will contain approximately 240 calories, 41 g carbohydrate, 10 g protein, and 4 g fat per bottle. Each Afrezza dose will be administered at the start of the meal challenge.

Visit 2: The first dose of Afrezza will be based on the dose of subcutaneous (SC) rapid-acting analogue (RAA) insulin that the subject would normally take, converted according to the guidelines provided in the current Afrezza prescribing information. If subject's normal RAA dose is <4 units or 5 units, subject will be asked to consume enough nutritional shake, per their normal I:C ratio, to cover an RAA dose of 4 units or ≥6 units such that their Afrezza dose at Visit 3 is higher than the dose taken at Visit 2. After completing the standardized meal challenge, the Investigator will decide, based on the subject's glucose excursion at Visit 2, if the subject should proceed to Visit 3 where a second dose of Afrezza will be administered.

Visit 3: The second dose of Afrezza will be based on the dose of SC RAA that the subject would normally take, converted by multiplying their RAA dose by 2 and rounding down to the nearest Afrezza cartridge size.

Follow-up Visit (Visit 4): Subjects will return for safety assessments, including a final FEV1 measurement, 24 to 72 hours after their last dose of Afrezza.

What participants receive

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

  • Afrezza Dose 1Combination product

    The first dose of Afrezza will be based on the dose of subcutaneous rapid-acting analogue (RAA) insulin that the subject would normally take for the standardized meal, converted according to the guidelines provided in the current Afrezza U.S. prescribing information.

  • Afrezza Dose 2Combination product

    The second dose of Afrezza will be based on the dose of subcutaneous rapid-acting analogue that the subject would normally take for the standardized meal, converted by multiplying their RAA dose by 2 and rounding down to the nearest Afrezza cartridge size.

What is being measured

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

  1. Post-prandial Glucose Excursion

    Mean glucose change from baseline (or postprandial glucose excursion [PPGE]) based on self-monitored blood glucose (SMBG) at 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 minutes after the dose of Afrezza with baseline defined as SMBG at the time of the dose of Afrezza (t=0)

    Measured: 120 minutes post-dose

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Number of Subjects With at Least 1 Event of Level 1 Hypoglycemia

    Number of subjects with at least 1 event (also referred to as incidence) of Level 1 hypoglycemia (<70mg/dL) within the 120 minutes after Afrezza dosing as confirmed by SMBG.

    Measured: 120 minutes

  2. Percent of Level 1 Hypoglycemia

    Percent of total SMBG measurements <70 mg/dL (Level 1 hypoglycemia) within the 120 minutes after Afrezza dosing.

    Measured: 120 minutes

  3. Number of Subjects With at Least 1 Event of Level 2 Hypoglycemia

    Number of subjects with at least 1 event (also referred to as incidence) of Level 2 hypoglycemia (<54mg/dL) within the 120 minutes after Afrezza dosing as confirmed by SMBG.

    Measured: 120 minutes

  4. Percent of Level 2 Hypoglycemia

    Percent of total SMBG measurements <54 mg/dL (Level 2 hypoglycemia) within the 120 minutes after Afrezza dosing

    Measured: 120 minutes

  5. Number of Subjects With At Least 1 Event of Severe Hypoglycemia

    Number of subjects with at least 1 event (also referred to as incidence) of severe hypoglycemia, defined as events requiring assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions within the 120 minutes after Afrezza dosing.

    Measured: 120 minutes

  6. Change in Percent Predicted Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) Between Two Points, Baseline and 120 Minutes Post-Afrezza Dose

    Change in percent predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) between two points (value at 120 minutes post-Afrezza dose minus value at baseline). Standard deviation was not reported.

    Measured: 120 minutes post-dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Afrezza Dose 1 and Afrezza Dose 2 in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Mannkind Corporation at 2 sites 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 2 inclusion and 15 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 18 Sep 2023. 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 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Sep 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Post-prandial Glucose Excursion (time frame: 120 minutes post-dose). 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 18 Sep 2023.
