NCT02715193

Brief Summary

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study to evaluate safety, tolerability and pharmacodynamics of REMD-477 in subjects who have Type 1 diabetes and are currently receiving insulin treatment. This proof of concept study will determine whether glucagon receptor blockade using a single dose REMD-477 can improve short-term glucose homeostasis in people with Type 1 diabetes.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Number of treatment emergent adverse events per subject, including changes in vital signs, physical and neurological examinations, laboratory safety tests and ECGs

    Baseline and 57 days

  • Changes from baseline in 24-hour insulin requirements on Day 1 relative to the two 24 hour periods post-treatment on Days 3 and 4, between the REMD-477 and placebo treated subjects, needed to maintain targeted glycemic control.

    Baseline (24 hour period on Day 1) and Days 3 and 4

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Immunogenicity: Incidence of REMD-477 neutralizing and non-neutralizing antibodies

    Baseline and 57 days

  • Changes from baseline over time of AST.

    Baseline and 57 days

  • Changes from baseline over time of ALT.

    Baseline and 57 days

  • Changes from baseline over time of ALP.

    Baseline and 57 days

  • Changes from baseline over time of total bilirubin.

    Baseline and 57 days

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

  • Females of non-child bearing potential must be ≥1 year post-menopausal (confirmed by a serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels ≥ 40 IU/mL) or documented as being surgically sterile. Females of child bearing potential must agree to use two methods of contraception;
  • Male subjects must be willing to use clinically acceptable method of contraception during the entire study;
  • Body mass index between 18.5 and 26.9 kg/m2, inclusive, at screening;
  • Diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes for greater than 2 years, based on clinical history or as defined by the current American Diabetes Association (ADA) criteria;
  • HbA1c ≥6.0 % but \<9.0 % at screening;
  • Fasting C-peptide \<0.2 ng/mL;
  • Current use of insulin pump and willing to use continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system (e.g. DexCom) throughout the entire study;
  • ALT and/or AST within \<1.5x ULN at screening;
  • Serum amylase and lipase within normal limits at screening;
  • Able to provide written informed consent approved by an Institutional Review Board (IRB).

You may not qualify if:

  • History or evidence of clinically-significant disorder or condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would pose a risk to subject safety or interfere with the study evaluation, procedures, or completion;
  • Significant organ system dysfunction (e.g., clinically significant pulmonary or cardiovascular disease, anemia \[Hemoglobin \<10.0 g/dL\], and renal dysfunction \[eGFR \<90 ml/1.73M2/min\]);
  • Any severe symptomatic hypoglycemic event associated with a seizure or requiring help from other people or medical facility in the past 6 months;
  • Current or recent (within 1 month of screening) use of diabetes medications other than insulin;
  • Use of steroids and/or other prescribed or over-the-counter medications that are known to affect the outcome measures in this study or known to influence glucose metabolism;
  • Smokes tobacco;
  • Known sensitivity to mammalian-derived drug preparations, recombinant protein-based drugs or to humanized or human antibodies;
  • History of illegal drug use or alcohol abuse within the last 6 months or a positive drug urine test result at screening;
  • History of pancreatitis, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors or multiple endocrine neoplasia;
  • History of pheochromocytoma, or family history of familial pheochromocytoma;
  • Known or suspected susceptibility to infectious disease (eg, taking immunosuppressive agents or has a documented inherited or acquired immunodeficiency);
  • Positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibodies, hepatitis B surface antigen (HbsAg), or hepatitis C antibodies (HepC Ab);
  • Participation in an investigational drug or device trial within 30 days of screening or within 5 times the half-life of the investigational agent in the other clinical study, if known, whichever period is longer;
  • Blood donor or blood loss \>500 mL within 30 days of Day 1;
  • Women who are pregnant or lactating/breastfeeding;
  • +3 more criteria
