About this study
Official title: A Single-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Two-Formulation, Single-Dose, Two-Period Crossover Clinical Trial Comparing Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Human Insulin Injection
A study of Clinical Trial Comparing Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Human Insulin Injection,in Wuhan Pulmonary Hospital (Wuhan Tuberculosis Prevention and Control Institute).To compare the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics properties of a single subcutaneous dose of the human insulin injection (USLIN®R, Zhuhai United Laboratories (Zhongshan) Co., Ltd.) with the reference product (Novolin®R, Novo Nordisk Inc.) in healthy male subjects,and to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of the test formulation versus the reference formulation in healthy male subjects.This single-center, randomized, double-blind, two-formulation, single-dose, two-period crossover study will enroll 32 healthy male subjects randomized 1:1 into two sequence groups (A/B, group A is administered in the sequence of T-R, while group B is in R-T). To evaluate the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of the test preparation and the control preparation in healthy male subjects. Each subject will receive single doses of both test and reference formulations across two periods (with ≥14-day washout), following the predefined sequence allocation table. After completing period 2 pharmacokinetic blood sampling, subjects will administer assigned insulin TID for two consecutive days to assess test-reference immunogenicity differences.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Human Insulin Injection(USLIN®R) and Human Insulin Injection(NOVOLIN®R) in people with Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics, run by Zhuhai United Laboratories Co., Ltd. at 1 site in China.
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 5 inclusion and 25 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 1 Jun 2026. 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 China. 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?
Primary PK Parameters (Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax)) (time frame: 0 to 12 hours). The study lists 4 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 1 Jun 2026.
