A Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Glucose Response of G-Pen (Glucagon Injection) in Pediatric Patients With Type 1 Diabetes
This is a sequential efficacy and safety study in pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes.
Subjects will be administered insulin to induce a low normal glycemic state and will then
receive an age-appropriate dose of G-Pen (glucagon injection) in a clinical research center
(CRC) or comparable setting.
Subjects will be administered insulin to induce a low normal glycemic state and will then
receive an age-appropriate dose of G-Pen (glucagon injection) in a clinical research center
(CRC) or comparable setting.
This is an open-label, Phase 3 sequential efficacy and safety study in pediatric patients
ages 2-17 with type 1 diabetes. Patients will complete the screening procedures up to 30 days
before dosing to determine eligibility before enrollment to the treatment phase.
The procedure to evaluate the efficacy of G-Pen (glucagon injection) consists of inducing a
low normal glycemic state by administration of insulin. Subjects ages 2-11 will then be given
a 0.5 mg dose of G-Pen, while subjects ages 12-17 will receive a 1 mg dose of G-Pen. Subjects
ages 12-17 will return for a second visit 1-4 weeks later and will receive a 0.5 mg dose of
G-Pen when in a low normal glycemic stare. Plasma glucose and glucagon levels will be
monitored for 90 and 180 minutes post-dosing, respectively, at all visits.
A follow-up phone call as a safety check will be conducted 3 - 14 days following
administration of the final dose.
