ABSTRACT
Dasiglucagon is a next-generation glucagon analogue that is stable in aqueous formulation. This dedicated immunogenicity trial to support use as rescue treatment for severe hypoglycemia was conducted to evaluate the immunogenicity of repeated subcutaneous doses of dasiglucagon in subjects with type 1 diabetes. A total of 112 subjects were randomized 1:1 to receive three subcutaneous weekly doses of either 0.6 mg dasiglucagon or 1.0 mg recombinant glucagon (GlucaGen®) according to a double-blind parallel-group trial design. Subjects were followed for 15 weeks, with a multitiered testing approach planned for assessment of antidrug antibody (ADA) formation. For the primary immunogenicity endpoint, the overall ADA incidence was zero, as no subject demonstrated any treatment-induced or treatment-boosted ADA response at any time point in this trial involving three consecutive weekly doses of trial drug. No injection site reactions were reported for subjects receiving dasiglucagon. There were no unexpected safety findings for the trial.
