Glucagon Ready-to-Use (RTU) for Prevention of Exercise-Induced Hypoglycemia During Aerobic Exercise in Adults With T1D

There were 2 phases of this study: CRC and Outpatient. The initial posting of this study reflected the 3 treatment arms included in the Outpatient Phase of the study, without including the CRC and Outpatient Phases separately.

CRC Phase:

The CRC Phase was comprised of 2 visits that included daytime exercise sessions at the CRC or a comparable setting. Subjects were randomized to receive their first treatment at Visit 3 and crossed over (2 to 28 day washout) to their second treatment at Visit 4. The treatments were a single treatment with 30 microliters of either Glucagon RTU (0.15 mg) or placebo with a 50% insulin pump reduction. Blood glucose was assessed 15 minutes prior to the start of exercise, at the start of exercise, and then 15, 30, 45, 60, and 75 minutes from the start of exercise.

Outpatient Phase:

After completion of the CRC Phase, subjects entered the 12-week Outpatient Phase. Subjects were to maintain a weekly exercise average of 2 to 3 sessions of at least 30 minutes duration. Subjects were assigned randomly in 1:1:1 ratio to administer 30 microliters of one of the following prior to the exercise sessions: Glucagon RTU (0.15 mg) with a 50% insulin pump reduction, placebo with a 50% pump reduction or Glucagon RTU (0.15 mg) without an insulin pump reduction. Blood glucose was assessed 15 minutes prior to the start of exercise, just before exercise, after 30 minutes of exercise, at the end of exercise (if longer than 30 minutes), and 30 minutes post-exercise.
