Brief Summary

The present study is designed to compare the pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic and safety characteristics of UBLIN® (test product) and NovoRapid® (reference product) in healthy male participants. The treatment consists of one single dose of the test or reference product, administered during each of the two study periods, separated by 7 days between dosing. A total of 44 participants will be enrolled in this trial and randomized in a 1:1 ratio into two groups (A/B), stratified by race (Asian, non-Asian).
