Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1

Brief summary

The aim of this study is to demonstrate similar efficacy and safety between MYL-1501D products produced from two manufacturing processes (Process V and Process VI) in combination with insulin lispro in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM).

Detailed description

This is a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, parallel-group Phase 3 study in subjects with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) comparing the efficacy, immunogenicity, and safety of MYL-1501D products from 2 manufacturing processes (Process V and Process VI). After a 2-week screening period, all subjects will be titrated on Lantus® during a 4-week run-in period and shifted from their current mealtime insulin to insulin lispro (Humalog®). Subjects will then be randomized (stratified by time of administration of glargine \[morning and evening\]) to 1 of 2 groups: * MYL-1501D product from Process V * MYL-1501D product from Process VI Treatment with MYL-1501D is for 18 weeks. A follow-up visit is scheduled 2 weeks after last dose of MYL 1501D.

Male and female subjects between the ages of 18 to 65 years, both ages inclusive. 3. Subjects with an established diagnosis of T1DM per ADA 2017 criteria who also fulfil the following criteria: 1. Initiation of insulin treatment within 6 months of T1DM diagnosis 2. Treatment with basal-bolus insulin therapy for at least 1 year before screening 3. Fasting plasma C-peptide \<0.3 nmol/L at screening 4. Subject has been on once daily Lantus® at stable dose (±15% variation in dose) for at least 3 months at screening 4. Body mass index (BMI) of 18.5 to 35 kg/m2 at screening (both values inclusive). 5. Stable weight, with no more than 5 kg gain or loss in the 3 months prior to screening, this information will be collected by subject interview during medical history. 6. Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) ≤ 9.5% at screening. 7. Hemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL at screening. 8. Subject has the capability of communicating appropriately with the investigator. 9. Subject is able and willing to comply with the requirements of the study protocol including the 8-point self-monitored blood glucose (SMBG), completion of subject diary records and following a recommended diet and exercise plan for the entire duration of the study. 10. Female subjects of childbearing potential who are willing to use oral contraception or two acceptable methods of contraception, (e.g., intra-uterine device plus condom, spermicidal gel plus condom, diaphragm plus condom, etc.), from the time of screening and for the duration of the study, through study completion. 1. Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception. 2. Postmenopausal females must have had no regular menstrual bleeding for at least 1 year prior to screening. 3. Female subjects who report surgical sterilization must have had the procedure at least 6 months prior to screening. 4. All female subjects of childbearing potential must have negative pregnancy test results at screening and at clinic visits, as per the SCHEDULE OF ACTIVITIES (SOA). 5. If female subjects have male partners who have undergone vasectomy, the vasectomy must have occurred more than 6 months prior to screening

Exclusion criteria

1. History or presence of a medical condition or disease that in the investigator's opinion would place the subject at an unacceptable risk from study participation. 2. History of hypersensitivity to any of the active or inactive ingredients of the insulin/insulin analogue preparations used in the study, OR history of significant allergic drug reactions. 3. History of use of animal insulin within the last 3 years or use of approved biosimilar insulin glargine at any time prior to study entry, except for subject who previously participated in MYL-1501D studies and were compliant with the study protocols. 4. History of use of a regular immunomodulator therapy in the 1 year prior to screening. 5. History of autoimmune disorders other than T1DM or insufficiently treated autoimmune thyroid disorders judged clinically relevant by the investigator (recorded while collecting subject history). 6. History of ≥1 episodes of diabetic ketoacidosis or emergency room visits for uncontrolled diabetes leading to hospitalization within the 6 months prior to screening. 7. History of clinically significant acute bacterial, viral or fungal systemic infections in the last 4 weeks prior to screening (recorded while collecting subject history). 8. Any clinically significant abnormality in electrocardiogram (ECG) or safety laboratory tests (LFT, RFT, hematology or any other laboratory deemed clinically relevant by the investigator) conducted at screening and considered by the investigator to make the subject ineligible for the study. 9. Serological evidence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B surface antigen (HbSAg) or hepatitis C antibodies (HCVAb) at screening. 10. History of drug or alcohol dependence or abuse during the 1 year prior to screening. 11. Receipt of another investigational drug in the 3 months prior to screening (or as per local regulations), or if the screening visit is within 5 half-lives of another investigational drug received (whichever is longer), or scheduled to receive another investigational drug during the current study period. 12. Subjects with the following secondary complications of diabetes: 1. Active proliferative retinopathy as confirmed by a dilated ophthalmoscopy examination / retinal photography (performed by a person legally authorized to do so) within the 6 months prior to screening. 2. Clinical nephrotic syndrome or diabetic nephropathy with a serum creatinine level \>1.5 times of upper limit of reference range at screening 3. History of severe form of neuropathy or cardiac autonomic neuropathy, recorded while collecting subject history. Subject's with mild or moderate forms of neuropathy will be allowed. 4. Subjects with a history of limb amputation as a complication of diabetes (at any time), or any vascular procedure during the 1 year prior to screening. 5.
