E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To demonstrate that clinically significant hypoglycemia (defined as blood glucose <54 mg/dL (3.0 mmol/L) or symptoms of severe hypoglycemia) is significantly less frequent following a double dose of insulin peglispro than following a double dose of insulin glargine within 84 hours of double dosing in patients with T2DM. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
1. Evaluate the PK of insulin peglispro and insulin glargine after the double dose.
2. Compare measures of glycemic control for the 84 hours following double doses of insulin peglispro and insulin glargine, including: incidence of hypoglycemia, mean nadir glucose, time to mean nadir glucose, mean duration in minutes (per patient) with glucose ≤70 mg/dL (3.9mmol/L) and fasting blood glucose.
3. Compare measures of glycemic control following a standard dose of insulin peglispro and a double dose of insulin peglispro, including: incidence of hypoglycemic events fasting blood glucose.
4. Compare the effects during the day following the standard dose of insulin peglispro and insulin glargine on, including: glucose area under the concentration-time curve (AUC), Glucose AUC excursion and beta cell function

Pharmacogenetic Evaluations – 06 Jan 2014
Where local regulations allow, a blood sample will be collected for pharmacogenetic analysis. It is a onetime collection, as noted in the Study Schedule. Samples will be stored and analysis may be performed on genetic variants thought to play a role in glucose and insulin regulation, beta cell function, characterization of patients’ responsiveness to insulin peglispro, or diabetes-related metabolic abnormalities.
Nonpharmacogenetic/Biomarker Evaluation – 06 Jan 2014
Samples will be collected for Nonpharmacogenetic biomarker research where local regulations allow. Blood and/or urine samples will be collected at the times specified in the Study Schedule. Samples may be used for research on diabetes progression and/or complications, mechanism of action of insulin peglispro, patients’ response to insulin peglispro, in case future analyses are warranted with regard to safety, or in validating diagnostic tools or assay(s) related to diabetes or related metabolic abnormalities or biomarker response to insulin peglispro.
