Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to compare the pharmacokinetics (i.e. the course of the blood concentrations of the administered trial drug) of faster-acting insulin aspart (faster aspart), and the currently marketed formulation of insulin aspart (NovoRapid®) when given as a bolus using an insulin pump in people with type 1 diabetes. The pharmacodynamic response (i.e. the course of the blood sugar lowering effect of the administered trial drug) and the safety and tolerability of faster aspart and NovoRapid® will also be assessed.

The participants will be in the study for approx. 21 days. Each participant will have 5 visits to the clinic, with an overnight stay at both dosing visits. Participants will have a number of tests, and they will have to give blood and urine samples.

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Faster aspart followed by insulin aspart

Each participant will have 2 dosing visits (faster aspart and insulin aspart), the order decided by lottery

Drug: Faster-acting insulin aspart
In a euglycaemic clamp setting each participant will receive a priming dose of 0.08 U/kg body weight, followed by a continuous basal rate of 0.02 U/kg body weight/h and finally a bolus dose of 0.15 U/kg body weight on top of the basal rate

Drug: Insulin aspart
In a euglycaemic clamp setting each participant will receive a priming dose of 0.08 U/kg body weight, followed by a continuous basal rate of 0.02 U/kg body weight/h and finally a bolus dose of 0.15 U/kg body weight on top of the basal rate
