Shift of Glucose Peak Time During Oral Glucose Tolerance Test is Associated with Changes in Insulin Secretion and Insulin Sensitivity After Therapy with Antidiabetic Drugs in Patients with Type  2 Diabetes
ConclusionExenatide, Humalog Mix25, and OADs improved glycemic metabolism. However, exenatide exhibited superior efficacy in shifting blood glucose peak time to an earlier point, while it improved insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity. Hence, the shift of glucose peak time may be considered an indicator for the evaluation of the effect of hypoglycemic drugs. (Source: Diabetes Therapy)

Study of blood glucose and insulin infusion rate in real-time in diabetic rats using an artificial pancreas system
by Omer Batuhan Kirilmaz, Akshay Radhakrishna Salegaonkar, Justin Shiau, Guney Uzun, Hoo Sang Ko, H. Felix Lee, Sarah Park, Guim Kwon Artificial pancreas system (APS) is an emerging new treatment for type 1 diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study was to develop a rat APS as a research tool and demonstrate its application. We established a rat APS using Medtronic Minimed Pump 722, Medtronic Enlite sensor, and the open artificial pancreas system as a controller. We tested different dilutions of Humalog (100 units/ml) in saline ranged from 1:3 to 1:20 and determined that 1:7 dilution works well for rats with ~500g bodyweigh...

Ultra Rapid Lispro (URLi) Accelerates Insulin Lispro Absorption and Insulin Action vs Humalog ® Consistently Across Study Populations: A Pooled Analysis of Pharmacokinetic and Glucodynamic Data
ConclusionsAcross the studied populations and dose range, URLi consistently demonstrated a faster absorption, reduced late exposure, and overall shorter exposure duration compared with Humalog. Similarly, URLi demonstrated earlier insulin action while reducing late insulin action and shorter insulin action compared with Humalog across the study populations and dose range.Clinical Trial RegistrationNCT02942654 (registered: 21 October, 2016), NCT03286751 (registered: 15 September, 2017), NCT03166124 (registered: 23 May, 2017), and NCT03305822 (registered: 5 October, 2017).

Insulin binding to the analytical antibody sandwich pair OXI ‐005 and HUI‐018: Epitope mapping and binding properties
AbstractThe insulin epitopes for two monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), OXI ‐005 and HUI‐018, commonly used in combination for insulin concentration determination in sandwich assays, were determined using X‐ray crystallography. The crystal structure of the HUI‐018 Fab in complex with human insulin (HI) was determined and OXI‐005 Fab crystal structures were determi ned in complex with HI and porcine insulin (PI) as well as on its own. The OXI‐005 epitope comprises insulin residues 1,3,4,19–21 (A‐chain) and 25–30 (B‐chain) and for HUI‐018 residues 7,8,10–14,17 (A‐chain) and 5–7, 10, 14 (B‐chain). The...

An assessment of physician reasons for prescribing Insulin Lispro 200 units/ml in Germany.
CONCLUSION: Physicians considered IL200 a promising treatment option that reduces the injection burden for patients on MTI. Physicians adopted a patient-centered perspective by aligning IL200 prescribing decisions with each patient's medical needs and non-clinical preferences, with an aim to encourage treatment adherence through resorting to IL200's advantageous attributes.

Pharmacokinetic and Glucodynamic Responses of Ultra Rapid Lispro (URLi) vs Lispro (Humalog ®) Across a Clinically Relevant Range of Subcutaneous Doses in Healthy Subjects.
This study compared the pharmacokinetic and glucodynamic parameters of URLi and Lispro (Humalog®) at 3 dose levels in healthy subjects. METHODS: This randomized, 6-period, subject- and investigator-blind, crossover study included 42 healthy subjects. At each period, subjects received a single subcutaneous dose of 7, 15, or 30 U of URLi or Lispro followed by a 10-h automated euglycemic clamp. Insulin lispro and blood glucose concentrations were measured. FINDINGS: Across all 3 doses, insulin lispro appeared in the serum 2-5 min faster, and exposure was 6- to 8-fold greater in the first 15 min, with URLi v...

Patient characteristics of insulin lispro 200 Units/mL users in real world setting in Germany.
Conclusions: IL200 is prescribed to people with diabetes who need more than 20 U/day of mealtime insulin and tend to be more obese, older, and with multiple comorbidities. Future research should explore how concentrated MTI can impact adherence and long-term glycemia. PMID: 32845743 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher] (Source: Current Medical Research and Opinion)
