Treatment and study plan

Isoglycemic Clamp

Drug

Isoglycemic Clamp, a procedure that includes IV infusion of short-acting Insulin (Part I) and glucose (Part I and 2)

Comparator: insulin glargine

Drug

Insulin glargine at 0.4 U/kg

Other names: LANTUS

Primary outcomes

  1. Part I: The within-subject standard deviation in duration of action of glargine (the difference between onset of action and end of action)

    Time frame: Baseline and 30 hours

  2. Part II: The within-subject coefficient of variation in time-action profile of glargine for AUC-GIR (AUC of glucose infusion rate), GIRmax (maximum level of glucose infusion rate), over the duration of action of glargine

    Time frame: Baseline and 30 hours

Secondary outcomes

  1. Part I: The within-subject coefficient of variation in time-action profile of glargine for AUC-GIR and GIRmax over the duration of action of glargine

    Time frame: Baseline and 30 hours

  2. Part II: The within-subject standard deviation in duration of action of glargine (the difference between onset of action and end of action)

    Time frame: Baseline and 30 hours
