Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Number of Participants Who Experienced an Adverse Event (AE)
Up to 112 days

An adverse event is defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign including an abnormal laboratory finding, symptom or disease associated with the use of a medical treatment or procedure, regardless of whether it is considered related to the medical treatment or procedure, that occurs during the course of the study. Adverse events that occurred beyond 14 days of dosing were considered Post-Trial AEs. Given the half-life of MK-1092 and glargine, any events observed beyond 14 days would not be considered a result of study drug and were therefore presented together.

Number of Participants Who Discontinued the Study Due to an AE
Up to 58 days

GIRmax After a Single Dose Administration of Subcutaneous MK-1092 or Glargine to Adult Participants With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) (Part 3)
Up to approximately 24 hours post-dose

The GIRmax required to maintain blood glucose at each participants' individual clamp target, following administration of MK-1092 SC or glargine SC was determined by use of a continuous glucose infusion during the euglycemic clamp so that glucose levels remained in the euglycemic range and hypoglycemia was prevented. Blood glucose was monitored frequently (\~every 5 minutes), allowing rapid changes to the rate of glucose infusion. Mean and 95% CI were based on a linear fixed effects model containing a fixed effect for treatment (MK-1092 Doses, Glargine). In Part 3, 4 participants (across 2 dosing panels) received glargine. These 4 participants were analyzed together given the small numbers and the same treatment (same dose of glargine) received.
