Comparison of Two Insulin Aspart Formulations in Healthy Volunteers

February 28, 2017 updated by: Novo Nordisk A/S

A Single Centre, Randomized, Balanced Double-blind, Cross-Over Trial Investigating the Bioequivalence of a Continuous Subcutaneous Infusion of a Marketed NovoRapid Formulation Containing 100 U/ml and a New NovoRapid Formulation Containing 200 U/ml in Healthy Male Volunteers

This trial is conducted in Africa. The aim of this trial is to determine if a new formulation (U200) of insulin aspart containing 200 U/mL is bioequivalent to that of a marketed insulin aspart formulation (U100).

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: U100
Bolus 0.1 U/kg administered simultaneously with a continuous infusion of 0.029 U/kg/h via a programmed insulin pump. A total dose of 0.35 U/kg is delivered to the subject in the 12 hour infusion
Experimental: U200
Bolus 0.1 U/kg administered simultaneously with a continuous infusion of 0.029 U/kg/h via a programmed insulin pump. A total dose of 0.35 U/kg is delivered to the subject in the 12 hour infusion
