Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Brief summary

This is a two-period study of participants with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). In each period, participants will receive once daily injections of stable dose LY2605541 or insulin glargine for 28 to 35 days followed by procedures to look at how the body uses or stores fats and sugars. Participants will continue to use meal time insulin throughout the study. Healthy participants will also enroll in the study. They will not receive any study medication.

Sleep Respiratory Quotient (RQ) in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM)

Lipid or glucose metabolism was assessed by the measurement of respiratory quotient (RQ) during sleep using whole room calorimetry. RQ is a calculation of basal metabolic rate (BMR) when estimated from carbon dioxide production. It is calculated from the ratio of carbon dioxide produced by the body to oxygen consumed by the body using whole room calorimetry (WRC).

Time frame: Day 30 post dose, overnight period (0000 to 0600 hours)

Population: All randomized participants with T1DM that received at least 1 dose of study drug. Data from 2 participants could not be used: one due to uncontrolled blood glucose and one due to an increase in thyroid medication.
