Inhaled Mealtime Insulin With the AERx® iDMS Versus Subcutaneous Injected Insulin Aspart Both in Combination With Insulin Detemir in Type 1 Diabetes: A 104 Week, Open-Label, Multicenter, Randomised, Parallel Trial (Followed by a Twelve-Week Re-Randomised Extension) To Investigate Safety and Efficacy
Inhaled Mealtime Insulin With the AERx® iDMS Versus Subcutaneous Injected Insulin Aspart Both in Combination With Insulin Detemir in Type 1 Diabetes: A 104 Week, Open-Label, Multicenter, Randomised, Parallel Trial (Followed by a Twelve-Week Re-Randomised Extension) To Investigate Safety and Efficacy
This trial is conducted in the United States of America (USA) and Canada. The aim of this research is to compare the efficacy (reduction in HbA1c and blood glucose) and pulmonary safety (pulmonary function, chest x-rays) of mealtime inhaled insulin with subcutaneous insulin aspart both in combination with insulin determir in Type 1 Diabetes.
The decision to discontinue the development of AERx® is not due to any safety concerns. An analysis concluded that fast-acting inhaled insulin in the form it is known today, is unlikely to offer significant clinical or convenience benefits over injections of modern insulin with pen devices.
