Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

To assess the efficacy of a closed loop glucagon system to prevent and treat hypoglycemia occurring in patients with Post-Bariatric Hypoglycemia (PBH) in response to meals and exercise.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 1/Phase 2

Detailed Description

A control system for sensor-guided delivery was previously developed and tested in a Proof-of-Concept (POC) study in a clinical research setting during 9 mixed meal tolerance tests in 8 unique patients with severe hypoglycemia following bariatric surgery. This optimized algorithm will now be implemented to deliver stable glucagon in a closed-loop system.

A randomized, placebo-controlled, masked trial will be conducted to assess the efficacy of the closed loop system to prevent and treat hypoglycemia occurring in patients with PBH in response to meals (part 1). Part 2 will test whether the closed loop system can also prevent and treat hypoglycemia in patients with PBH in response to exercise. A manufacturing program from our collaborating team at Xeris Pharmaceuticals will continue to produce supplies of glucagon for the clinical trial in a current good manufacturing practice (cGMP) facility, with continued shelf-life stability testing.

  19. Pain Score at Time of First Dose Delivery of Study Drug, Versus Pain Score at Time of First Dose Delivery of Placebo (Comparing First Delivery Pain Scores for Visit Where Participant Received Study Drug vs. Visit Where Participant Received Placebo). [The two study visits where participants were administered either study drug or placebo took place over 2 weeks (there was a 1 to 2 week washout period between visits).]

    Pain score was assessed verbally, 1 is the least pain (none), 10 is the most severe pain. Pain score at the time of the first administration was compared for the visit where the participant received the study drug vs. the visit where the participant received the placebo. A participant could receive 2 doses of the study drug or placebo at each visit. All 12 participants completed both the study drug phase and the placebo phase. The pain scores for the first administration of study drug vs. first administration of placebo for these two visits were compared. Whether the participant was assigned to the study drug glucagon (vs. placebo) at the first or second MMTT was determined by randomization.

Title Time to Alarm During Mixed Meal Testing (Minutes)
Description Time to alarm represents the time for the first alarm to occur during mixed meal testing. Alarms are triggered by hypoglycemia (sensor glucose < 65 mg/dL), or by the algorithm predicting that hypoglycemia will occur in less than 30 minutes (taking into account current sensor glucose level (between 65-150 mg/dL) and the rate of change of a rapidly falling sensor glucose level). In the latter case, the alarm is activated even if glucose levels are within the normoglycemic range to allow early detection and response. During both glucagon and vehicle treatment visits, all participants received either 300 μg of glucagon or the equivalent volume of vehicle with the first alarm.

Title Capillary Glucose at Time of Alarm 1 During Mixed Meal Testing (mg/dL)
Description This is the capillary glucose at which time the first alarm occurred during the mixed meal testing. Alarms are triggered by hypoglycemia (sensor glucose < 65 mg/dL), or by the algorithm predicting that hypoglycemia will occur in less than 30 minutes (taking into account current sensor glucose level (between 65-150 mg/dL) and the rate of change of a rapidly falling sensor glucose level). In the latter case, the alarm is activated even if glucose levels are within the normoglycemic range to allow early detection and response. During both glucagon and vehicle treatment visits, all participants received either 300 μg of glucagon or the equivalent volume of vehicle with the first alarm.
Time Frame Measured following 2 challenges: 1 with glucagon and 1 with vehicle. The second challenge was conducted within two weeks of the first.

Arm/Group Title Study Drug (Glucagon) Phase Placebo / Control Phase
Arm/Group Description This phase represents when the participant received the study drug - glucagon. A participant could receive 2 doses of the study drug at this visit. Each subject had two mixed meal tolerance tests performed. Each was randomized to receive either glucagon or matched placebo during the first testing session. The opposite treatment was given during the second testing session after a 1-2 week washout period. Both participants and the study team were blinded to the intervention being used during each session. glucagon: novel, stable non-aqueous glucagon formulation provided by Xeris Pharmaceuticals Closed loop glucagon pump: a novel closed-loop glucagon system (CLG) incorporating a novel, stable non-aqueous glucagon formulation together with an infusion pump system (Omnipod) guided by real-time continuous glucose monitoring (Dexcom) that is triggered by a hypoglycemia alert algorithm. This phase represents when the participant received the placebo. A participant could receive 2 doses of the placebo at this visit. Each subject had two mixed meal tolerance tests performed. Each was randomized to receive either glucagon or matched placebo during the first testing session. The opposite treatment was given during the second testing session after a 1-2 week washout period.

21. Secondary Outcome
Title Pain Score at Time of First Dose Delivery of Study Drug, Versus Pain Score at Time of First Dose Delivery of Placebo (Comparing First Delivery Pain Scores for Visit Where Participant Received Study Drug vs. Visit Where Participant Received Placebo).
Description Pain score was assessed verbally, 1 is the least pain (none), 10 is the most severe pain. Pain score at the time of the first administration was compared for the visit where the participant received the study drug vs. the visit where the participant received the placebo. A participant could receive 2 doses of the study drug or placebo at each visit. All 12 participants completed both the study drug phase and the placebo phase. The pain scores for the first administration of study drug vs. first administration of placebo for these two visits were compared. Whether the participant was assigned to the study drug glucagon (vs. placebo) at the first or second MMTT was determined by randomization.
Time Frame The two study visits where participants were administered either study drug or placebo took place over 2 weeks (there was a 1 to 2 week washout period between visits).

Adverse Events

Time Frame Adverse event data were collected over the the duration of each individuals participation, a 2 to 3 week period of time, encompassing the time of enrollment, to the completion of visit 5.
Adverse Event Reporting Description Regarding discrepancy between participant flow and number of participants at risk: 18 participants enrolled, however two participants withdrew before the first mixed-meal study visit because of inability to obtain adequate intravenous access. Sixteen participants completed the first mixed-meal study visit; 12 participants completed both mixed meal study visits and were included in analysis.
