What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Pharmacokinetics: Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to 24 Hours [AUC(0-24)] of LY2963016 and Lantus

    Time frame: 1 hour predose up to 24 hours postdose in all treatment periods

  2. Pharmacokinetics: Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of LY2963016 and Lantus

    Time frame: 1 hour predose up to 24 hours postdose in all treatment periods

Secondary outcomes

  1. Maximum Glucose Infusion Rate (Rmax)

    Rmax is the maximum infusion rate of glucose administered intravenously needed to maintain target blood glucose level and is used to measure the study drug action over time as measured by the euglycaemic clamp procedure. During the euglycaemic clamp procedure, blood glucose concentrations are held constant after the administration of LY2963016 or Lantus by adjusting the exogenous glucose infusion rate. Data presented were adjusted by the body weight.

    Time frame: 1 hour predose up to 24 hours postdose in all treatment periods

  2. Total Amount of Glucose Infused (Gtot) Over the Duration of Clamp Procedure

    Gtot is the total glucose infusion over the clamp duration and is used to measure the study drug action over time as measured by the euglycaemic clamp procedure. During the euglycaemic clamp procedure, blood glucose concentrations are held constant after the administration of LY2963016 or Lantus by adjusting the exogenous glucose infusion rate. Data presented were adjusted by the body weight.

    Time frame: 1 hour predose up to 24 hours postdose in all treatment periods

Not marked actual or estimatedDates not marked actual or estimated

The record gives a start of Nov 2011, a primary completion of Jul 2012 and a completion of Jul 2012. It does not say whether these dates are actual or estimated.

Results were first posted in Oct 2014, 2 years 3 months after primary completion.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Oct 7, 2014, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
