21 Day Comparison of Continuous Insulin Infusion Using HDV Insulin to Standard Insulin in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Single Center, Double Blind, Active Comparator Controlled 2-Way Crossover Multiple Dose Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy Study

This is a single center, double blind, active comparator controlled 2-Way crossover multiple dose safety, tolerability and efficacy study. The study will consist of three periods. Total duration will be approximately nine weeks, including a screening period of up to 14 days, a 7-day run-in period and two 21-day treatment periods. Subjects will be screened and then they will undergo a week of baseline CGM. They will then be randomized to one of two treatment sequences: three weeks of treatment with HDV-lispro followed by three weeks of treatment with insulin lispro diluted with sterile water to match the insulin concentration in HDV-lispro, or the same treatments in the reverse order. A test meal study (standardized liquid test meal) is to be conducted at the beginning of treatment (baseline study) and at the end of each three week treatment period. As noted above, frequent blood samples will be collected for glucose and insulin levels during the first (baseline study) test meal; during the two test meals performed after the two treatment periods the same sampling for glucose and insulin will be performed, with the addition of collecting samples for glucagon levels. Subjects will also perform blinded continuous glucose monitoring throughout the entirety of the study (7 weeks). Throughout study, subjects will be asked to perform frequent self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG), at least 6 times per day (before and 60-90 minutes after each meal) during 3 or more days of each week. This will serve as data for therapeutic decision-making as well as for data collection.
