Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To asses the duration of glucagon’s waning effect on the hepatic glucose production in type 1 diabetes patients;Secondary Objective: To asses the duration of glucagon’s waning effect on the blood glucose concentration in type 1 diabetes patients;Primary end point(s): ?AUCHGP, percentage reduction in the area under the hepatic glucose production rate curve ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Observed for 120 minutes following the second glucagon administration compared to that observed for 120 minutes following the first glucagon administration

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): ?HGPMAX, percentage reduction in the maximum hepatic glucose production rate ?AUCPG, percentage reduction in the area under the plasma glucose concentration curve ?PGMAX, percentage reduction in the maximum plasma glucose concentration AUCPGL, area under the plasma glucagon concentration curve ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Observed following the second glucagon administration compared to that observed following the first glucagon administration Observed for 120 minutes following the second glucagon administration compared to that observed for 120 minutes following the first glucagon administration Observed for 120 minutes following each glucagon administration
