E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective is to show non-inferiority of the efficacy of a single subcutaneous dose of dasiglucagon batch B relative to that of dasiglucagon batch A for treatment of hypoglycemia in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus |
|

The secondary objective is to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity and PK of 2 different batches of dasiglucagon following a single SC dose administered to patients with T1DM with insulin-induced hypoglycemia |
|
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
Patients will be eligible to be included in the trial only if all of the following criteria apply: 1. Informed consent obtained before any trial-related activities (trial-related activities are any procedures that would not have been performed during normal management of the patient) 2. Female or male patients with T1DM for at least 1 year, diagnostic criteria as defined by the American Diabetes Association (American Diabetes Association, 2017) 3. Treated with insulin for T1DM for at least 1 year and with stable insulin treatment (defined as no more than a 10-unit daily variation in total daily insulin dose) 30 days prior to screening 4. Hemoglobin A1c <10.0% at screening 5. Age between 18 and 75 years, both inclusive, at screening 6. A female subject must meet one of the following criteria: a) Participant is of childbearing potential and agrees to use one of the accepted contraceptive regimens throughout the entire duration of the trial from screening and until last follow-up visit. An acceptable method of contraception includes one of the following: i. Abstinence from heterosexual intercourse (only acceptable if corresponding to the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject) ii. Systemic contraceptives (birth control pills, injectable/implant/ insertable hormonal birth control products, transdermal patch) iii. Intrauterine device (with and without hormones) iv. Condom with spermicide
[Germany only: An acceptable method of contraception includes one of the following: I. Total heterosexual sexual abstinence can be used as a method of contraception if this is the participant's preferred lifestyle and the method is established. Periodic sexual abstinence is not an acceptable method of contraception II. Single method (use only one method): • Intrauterine device (IUD) • Hormone rod inserted under the skin • Male partner's sterilization III. Double method: • Hormone contraception A) estrogen and/or progesterone oral contraceptives, B) transdermal patch, C) vaginal ring, D) injection • In combination with one of the following: a) vaginal cap with spermicide, b) vaginal sponge (only for women who have never given birth), c) condom, d) female condom ]
b) Participant is of non-childbearing potential, defined as surgically sterile (i.e., has undergone complete hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or tubal ligation), or in a menopausal state (at least 1 year without menses). 7. A male subject must meet the following criteria: Surgically sterilized or willing to refrain from sexual intercourse from screening and until last follow-up visit or, if sexually active, uses condom and partner practices contraception during the trial from screening and until last follow-up visit. |

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
Patients are excluded from the trial if any of the following criteria apply: 1. Previous participation in a clinical trial within the dasiglucagon program 2.

Receipt of any investigational medicinal product within 3 months prior to screening 11. Active malignancy within the last 5 years 12. Congestive heart failure, New York Heart Association class II-IV 13. Inadequately treated blood pressure as defined as systolic blood pressure ≥160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg at screening (The Task Force for the management of arterial hypertension, 2013) 14. Current bleeding disorder, including use of anticoagulant treatment 15. Known presence or history of pheochromocytoma (i.e., adrenal gland tumor) or insulinoma (i.e., insulin-secreting pancreas tumor) 16. Use of a systemic beta-blocker drug, indomethacin, warfarin or anticholinergic drugs at screening 17.

Any donation of blood or plasma in the past month, or donation in excess of 500 mL within 12 weeks before screening 21. Surgery or trauma with significant blood loss within the last 2 months before screening 22. A positive result in the alcohol and/or urine drug screen at the screening visit 23. Significant history of alcoholism or non-prescribed opioid misuse as judged by the investigator 24. Patients with mental incapacity or language barriers that preclude adequate understanding or cooperation, who are unwilling to participate in the trial, or who in the opinion of the investigator should not participate in the trial 25.
