Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to novel compositions, combinations and methods for increasing subcutaneous insulin absorption and/or treating diabetes and/or treating or preventing hyperglycemia in a patient in need thereof.
  • Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disease that is characterised by high glucose levels in the blood (hyperglycemia). Depending on the type of diabetes, the organism does not produce insulin (type 1) and/or has difficulty reacting to its signal (type 2).
  • Insulin is a hormone produced by beta pancreatic cells and its secretion is mainly stimulated by an increase of glucose in the blood, but also by free fatty acids, amino acids, incretins, and other factors. Insulin controls hyperglycemia by stimulating the capting of glucose by the tissues. In other words, insulin activates energy storage and simultaneously inhibits the release of energy reserves.
  • T1D type 1
  • T2D type 2
  • SAIA Short-acting insulin analogues
  • RHI regular human insulin
  • SAIA are insulins with a reduced tendency to self-associate, providing faster absorption, lesser within- and between-subjects variability and better reproducibility. Accordingly, rises in plasma and expected hypoglycemic responses are more rapid.
  • these studies were conducted in normal weight healthy subjects or in subjects with T1D; accordingly, only small dosages of insulin were assessed.
  • SAIA therapy is essentially based on the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) data of the above small-dosage studies conducted in subjects with T1D, normal weight or moderately obese subjects.

  • SAIA are also sometimes referred to as “Rapid Acting Insulin Analog”. The expressions can be used interchangeably herein.
  • vasoactive agents for use herein should be appropriate to cause a local increase of blood flow in subcutaneous adipose tissue (ATBF), it would be desirable that the vasoactive agents: 1) is operative in diabetic patients 2) provide a sufficient stability into the subcutaneous adipose tissue in the patient and/or 3) be compatible (i.e. not detrimental) for use in patients.

  • said vasoactive agent is prostacyclin IP 1 receptor agonist, such as iloprost, epoprostenol or treprostinil; especially iloprost.
  • Vasoactive agents for use herein are used at dosages typically substantially lower than typical doses approved by health and medical authorities. Such dosages can be used in the present method because the vasoactive agent locally provides an immediate action where insulin is administered. At body scale the dose injected is minimal (about 9 to 140 times inferior with regard to i.v. doses) although at local site, this dose is pharmacologically active. It is believed that the use of lower doses may offer advantages such as reducing side effects normally encountered by effective systemic doses. It is also believed that subcutaneous administration reduces the bioavailability of the agents compared to the doses delivered by i.v. bolus.

  • the disappearance of 133 Xe is reflected in the decrease in quantity of the gamma emissions which is cumulated every 20 sec.
  • the negative slope of the time every 10 min is therefore converted to an ATBF value (ml/100 g tissuemin) (see Karpe, F. et al. J Physiol 2002; 540(Pt 3):1087-93; Martin, E. et al. Can J Physiol Pharmacol 2011; 89(6): 383-91; Sotornik, R. et al. Methods Enzymol. 2014; 537:227-42).
  • OT2D subjects participated to experiments in which one vasoactive agent dose or saline was injected as a volume of 300 ⁇ l (corresponding to the volume of 30 U of insulin) and the ATBF was recorded for 120 min.
  • Each result (n) corresponds to the incremental area under the curve (iAUC) of the 40-min post-injection ATBF monitoring period for the more effective dose of each vasoactive agent in 100 ⁇ l: iloprost 1 nmol, papaverine 8.65 ⁇ mol, isoproterenol 10 nmol, and sildenafil 100 nmol.
  • Each result (n) corresponds to the incremental area under the curve (iAUC) of the 120-min post-injection ATBF monitoring period for the more effective dose of each vasoactive agent in 300 ⁇ l: iloprost 1 nmol, papaverine 8.65 ⁇ mol, isoproterenol 10 nmol, and sildenafil 100 nmol.
  • FIG. 3 represents the ATBF in control normal weight subjects (circles) and OT2D subjects (squares) after subcutaneous iloprost administration.
  • the baseline corresponds to the 1-hour monitoring mean of fasting ATBF.
  • the ATBF under stimulation is express as the mean of the 3 higher values.
  • Three incremental doses of iloprost have been applied (0.01, 0.1 and 1 nmol) and the effects on ATBF were monitored over 40-min periods. Group's means are indicated in boxes and fold increase factors of stimulated ATBF are compared to unstimulated ATBF.
  • the baseline corresponds to the 1-hour monitoring mean of fasting ATBF.
  • the ATBF b represents the average of the 3 last values (before 0) out of the 6 obtained during the one-hour basal measurement because they are the most stable.
  • ATBF max the response of ATBF to a vasoactive agent
  • the multiplication factor of a vasoactive agent corresponds to the ratio ATBF max /ATBF b .
  • the AUC were calculated by the trapezoidal method: the iAUC (incremental USC) of the response to a vasoactive agent was calculated from the values of ATBF minus the ATBF b for the dose-response test (iAUC 0-40 min ) or the tests of 120 min (iAUC 0-120 min ).
  • Blood samples (2 ml) for specific determination of lispro were collected at 10-min intervals for the first 3 hours, and at 20-min intervals thereafter, in tubes containing sodium-citrate and a cocktail of protease inhibitors. Samples were then immediately centrifuged, frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at ⁇ 80° C. until assayed. ⁇ Study procedures ended around 4 PM. Subjects received a meal and self-injected a personalised insulin dose as prescribed by the endocrinologist. Subjects were allowed to leave when glucose levels were stabilised over 6 mmol/L.
  • Plasma lispro was measured by an ultra-specific radioimmunoassay (Linco Research Inc.) Detection limit is 18 pmol/L, intra-assay CV is 2.5% in our hands (Gagnon-Auger M, et al. Diabetes Care 2010; 33(12):2502-7).
  • OT2D subjects participated to these experiments in which 10 and 30 U of lispro f iloprost were tested.
  • PK profiles were obtained from blood samples collected during the 8-hour euglycemic clamp PD profiles are the glucose infusion rates needed to maintain plasma glucose levels stable and correspond to the hypoglycemic effect of insulin.
  • FIG. 5 represents the mean plasmatic lispro concentrations over the 8-hour euglycemic clamp following its administration in OT2D subjects with a A 1c >8%.
  • FIG. 6 represents the 2 first hours of mean plasmatic lispro concentrations of the 8-hour euglycemic clamp following its administration in OT2D subjects with a A 1c >8%.
  • FIG. 7 represents fractional AUCs of plasmatic lispro concentrations at 10, 20, 30, and 40 min following its administration in OT2D subjects with a A 1c >8%.
  • FIG. 8 represents the 2 first hours of mean glucose infusion rate of the 8-hour euglycemic clamp following lispro administration in OT2D subjects with a A 1c >8%.
  • FIG. 9 represents the total glucose infusion at 30, 40, 50, and 60 min following lispro administration in OT2D subjects with a A 1c >8%.
  • the fractional plasmatic lispro AUCs were calculated by the trapezoidal method.
  • Total glucose infusion (GI) is obtained by multiplying the glucose infusion rate (GIR) by the time (min). All of the data is expressed in means.
