Low within- and between-day variability in exposure to new insulin glargine 300 U/ml

Aims To characterize the variability in exposure and metabolic effect of insulin glargine 300 U/ml (Gla‐300) at steady state in people with type 1 diabetes (T1DM). Methods A total of 50 participants with T1DM underwent two 24‐h euglycaemic clamps in steady‐state conditions after six once‐daily admin...

Description
Summary:Aims To characterize the variability in exposure and metabolic effect of insulin glargine 300 U/ml (Gla‐300) at steady state in people with type 1 diabetes (T1DM). Methods A total of 50 participants with T1DM underwent two 24‐h euglycaemic clamps in steady‐state conditions after six once‐daily administrations of 0.4 U/kg Gla‐300 in a double‐blind, randomized, two‐treatment, two‐period, crossover clamp study. Participants were randomized to receive Gla‐300 as a standard cartridge formulation in the first treatment period, and as a formulation with enhanced stability through polysorbate‐20 addition in the second treatment period, or vice versa. This design allowed the assessment of bioequivalence between formulations and, subsequently, within‐ and between‐day variability. Results The cumulative exposure and effect of Gla‐300 developed linearly over 24 h, and were evenly distributed across 6‐ and 12‐h intervals. Diurnal fluctuation in exposure (within‐day variability) was low; the peak‐to‐trough ratio of insulin concentration profiles was
