A Comparison of Pharmacodynamics and Pharmacokinetics of Insulin Aspart, Biphasic Insulin Aspart 30, 50 and 70.
Summary
The hypothesis is that an optimal formulation of fast acting and intermediary acting insulin analogues will improve post prandial glycaemic control in patients with type 1 diabetes.
OBJECTIVE:
The objective is to describe pharmacodynamic (PD) and pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles of Insulin Aspart (IAsp), Biphasic Insulin Aspart (BIAsp) 30, 50 and 70 for a period of 12 hours following a standard test meal on four days respectively in subjects with type 1 diabetes.
Description
This trial is a single centre, open-label, randomised 4 period cross-over trial, comparing the pk and pd profiles of IAsp, BIAsp 30, BIAsp 50 and BIAsp 70 after a standard test meal in subjects with type 1 diabetes. The profiles will be derived over a 12-hour period after subcutaneous injection in the abdominal region with a single dose of IAsp, BIAsp 30, BIAsp 50 or BIAsp 70 at a test meal. The trial consists of a screening period of 4-21 days and 4 treatment visits

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2
A subclass of DIABETES MELLITUS that is not INSULIN-responsive or dependent (NIDDM). It is characterized initially by INSULIN RESISTANCE and HYPERINSULINEMIA; and eventually by GLUCOSE INTOLERANCE; HYPERGLYCEMIA; and overt diabetes. Type II diabetes mellitus is no longer considered a disease exclusively found in adults. Patients seldom develop KETOSIS but often exhibit OBESITY.
Prediabetic State
The time period before the development of symptomatic diabetes. For example, certain risk factors can be observed in subjects who subsequently develop INSULIN RESISTANCE as in type 2 diabetes (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 2).
Insulin
A 51-amino acid pancreatic hormone that plays a major role in the regulation of glucose metabolism, directly by suppressing endogenous glucose production (GLYCOGENOLYSIS; GLUCONEOGENESIS) and indirectly by suppressing GLUCAGON secretion and LIPOLYSIS. Native insulin is a globular protein comprised of a zinc-coordinated hexamer. Each insulin monomer containing two chains, A (21 residues) and B (30 residues), linked by two disulfide bonds. Insulin is used as a drug to control insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 1).
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1
A subtype of DIABETES MELLITUS that is characterized by INSULIN deficiency. It is manifested by the sudden onset of severe HYPERGLYCEMIA, rapid progression to DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS, and DEATH unless treated with insulin. The disease may occur at any age, but is most common in childhood or adolescence.
Diabetes, Gestational
Diabetes mellitus induced by PREGNANCY but resolved at the end of pregnancy. It does not include previously diagnosed diabetics who become pregnant (PREGNANCY IN DIABETICS). Gestational diabetes usually develops in late pregnancy when insulin antagonistic hormones peaks leading to INSULIN RESISTANCE; GLUCOSE INTOLERANCE; and HYPERGLYCEMIA.
