Brief summary

The purposes of this study are to determine: * Part A * How quickly your body absorbs, breaks down and gets rid of the different formulations of insulin lispro compared to insulin lispro alone formulation. * The safety of insulin lispro in different formulations and any side effects that might be associated with it. * Part B: * How much insulin lispro from different dose ranges is found in the bloodstream using a test insulin lispro formulation (selected from Part A). * The safety of insulin lispro in different formulations and any side effects that might be associated with it. Participants may only enroll in one part. The study is expected to last up to 10 weeks for each part.

Pre-assignment details

Part A was a 5-period crossover study and Part B was a 4-period crossover study. A washout of 72 hours was observed between doses with a follow up within 7 to 14 days after the last dose.

Participants by arm

ArmCount
Part A Participants
Each participant received a single SC dose of 7.0 U insulin lispro (Reference) and 4 doses of different test insulin lispro formulations (7.28 U; Tests A, B, C, and D) in one of five periods according to assigned treatment sequence 1, 2, or 3. Sequence 1: Test A, D, C, Reference, B Sequence 2: Test B, A, Reference, C, D Sequence 3: Test Reference, Test C, B, D, A.

Part B Participants
Each participant received a single dose of lispro SC in one of four periods according to assigned treatment sequence 1, 2, or 3. Participants received test formulation B containing 7.28 U (Units) of insulin lispro given as a single SC injection or test formulation B containing 15.47 U of insulin lispro given as a single SC injection or test formulation B containing 30.03 U of insulin lispro given as a single SC injection. Sequence 1: 30.03 U, 7.28 U, 15.47 U, 7.28 U Sequence 2: 7.28 U, 15.47 U, 30.03 U, 15.47 U Sequence 3: 15.47 U, 30.03 U, 7.28 U, 30.03 U

Outcome results

Primary

Part A and Part B: Pharmacokinetics (PK): Area Under The Concentration Curve Zero to Infinity (AUC[0-∞])

Primary outcome measure is based on the PK area under the concentration curve from 0 to infinity with a measurable concentration.

Time frame: -30, 0 (Predose), 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 70, 90, 120, 150,180, 240, and 300 Minutes

Population: All randomized participants who were completers and had evaluable PK data.
