Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether glucagon administered by microneedle patch is comparable to glucagon administered by injection pen in the treatment of insulin-induced hypoglycemia.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The purpose of this study is to compare ZP-Glucagon transdermal patch system at doses of 0.5 mg and 1 mg to glucagon by injection at doses of 0.5 mg and 1 mg by means of a 4 way crossover open label design. Eligible subjects giving informed consent will be randomised to a treatment sequence of each of the four treatments in one week intervals. At each treatment visit, subjects will undergo an insulin induction procedure designed to safely induce hypoglycemia, and then have a treatment applied, either by injection or by patch, and then monitored for return to normoglycemia.
