Conditions

Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1

Brief summary

This study has 2 parts. Each participant will receive a daily injection of LY2605541 during one treatment period and a daily injection of insulin glargine during one treatment period. Each treatment period is 2 to 3 weeks and is followed by a procedure to lower blood sugar levels to see how the body recovers after each treatment.
