A Bioequivalence Study Comparing Two Different Strengths Formulations of Insulin Lispro in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes

September 19, 2025 updated by: Sanofi

A Randomized, Double-blind, Single-dose, 2-treatment, 2-period, 2-sequence Crossover Bioequivalence Study Comparing Two Different Strengths Formulations of Insulin Lispro Using the Euglycemic Clamp Technique, in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Primary Objective:

To demonstrate bioequivalence between insulin lispro given as SAR342434, 200 Units/ml test formulation (T) and insulin lispro 100 Units/ml reference formulation (R) after a single subcutaneous (SC) dose

Secondary Objectives:

  • To assess the pharmacodynamic profiles and further pharmacokinetic characteristics of the test formulation (T) in comparison to the reference formulation (R) after a single SC dose
  • To assess the safety and tolerability of the test and the reference formulation of insulin lispro

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Study duration per participant is approximately 62 days including a screening period up to 28 days before first dose, 2 periods of 2 days, a wash out period of 5 to 18 days (preferred7 days) and an end of study visit 7 to 14 days after the last dose

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 64 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

  • Glycohemoglobin (HbA1c) ≤75 mmol/mol (≤9%) at screening

  • More than 1 episode of severe hypoglycemia resulting in coma/seizures or requiring assistance of another person, and/or hospitalization for diabetic ketoacidosis in the last 6 months before screening visit.
  • Frequent headaches and/or migraine, recurrent nausea and/or vomiting (for vomiting only, more than twice a month).
  • Symptomatic postural hypotension, irrespective of the decrease in blood pressure, or asymptomatic postural hypotension defined as a decrease in systolic blood pressure ≥20 mmHg within 3 minutes when changing from supine to standing position.
  • Presence or history of drug hypersensitivity, or allergic disease diagnosed and treated by a physician.
  • Likelihood of requiring treatment during the study period with drugs not permitted by the clinical study protocol
