Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Change in Plasma Glucose
0-30 minutes

The primary endpoint for this study is an evaluation of change in plasma glucose following treatment with G-Pen, with an emphasis on the increase from baseline to 30 minutes post-dosing.

Number of Subjects With Clinically Meaningful Reduction in Glucose Infusion Rate (Double-Blind)
Baseline to end of blinded treatment at 24 or 48 hours

Change from baseline in glucose infusion rate (GIR) will be determined for each subject at 24 and 48 hours from the start of blinded treatment. Subjects with a decrease in GIR ≥ 20% at 24 hours, and ≥ 33% at 48 hours will be considered to have had a clinically meaningful treatment response.

Number of Subjects With Plasma Glucose > 70 mg/dL at 30 Minutes Post-treatment
0-90 minutes

For 90 minutes following treatment, plasma glucose was measured every 5 minutes, with an increase in plasma glucose to \>70 mg/dL within 30 minutes of treatment being considered a positive response.

Number of Participants With Meal-provoked Hypoglycemia, Defined as Sensor Glucose <65 mg/dL
Measured following 2 challenges: 1 with glucagon and 1 with vehicle. The second challenge was conducted within two weeks of the first.

A primary endpoint for this study is the prevention of meal provoked hypoglycemia, defined as sensor glucose levels below \<65 mg/dl, comparing study drug to control.

Study drug (glucagon) first, placebo secondOTHEREach subject will have two mixed meal tolerance tests performed. Each will be randomized to receive either glucagon or matched placebo during the first testing session. A participant could receive 2 doses of the study drug or placebo at each study visit. The opposite treatment will be given during the second testing session after a 1-2 week washout period. Both participants and the study team will be blinded to the intervention being used during each session.
