Safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of multiple ascending doses of the novel long‐acting glucagon analogue HM15136 in overweight and obese patients with co‐morbidities
Authors' conclusion
This study of HM15136 provides a preliminary safety and tolerability profile with initial insights into its efficacy profile.
Study context
- Population
- Overweight/obese patients with dyslipidaemia and/or hypertension; part 1 without T2D, part 2 with T2D
- Comparison
- Once-weekly subcutaneous HM15136 vs placebo for 12 weeks
- Primary endpoint
- Safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics
- Follow-up
- 12-week treatment period
Methodological detailsphase 1, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-part, multiple ascending doses
- Phase 1
- Double-blind
- Placebo-controlled
- Two-part
- Multiple ascending doses
Primary result
As reported in the abstract
TEAE, part 1
Further findings
TEAE, part 2 (T2D)
- Treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE), part 2 (T2D): HM15136 n=12; placebo n=4
Weight reduction, part 1
- Dose-dependent weight reduction at 0.02/0.04/0.06 mg/kg
- 0.5%/2.3%/2.6%
- Dose-dependent increases in mean HM15136 serum concentration and fasting plasma glucose (FPG)
Weight reduction, part 2
- Weight reduction with 0.02 mg/kg
- 0.9%
- Dose-dependent increases in mean HM15136 serum concentration
Safety
Anti-HM15136 antibodies
- Part 1, HM15136
- 5/27 (18.5%)
- Part 2
- 2 (16.7%)
FPG >200 mg/dL, part 2
- 0.02 mg/kg
- 4/9 (44.4%)
- 0.06 mg/kg
- 2/3 (66.7%)
- 0.06 mg/kg not tolerated in part 2 due to hyperglycaemia
Serious TEAEs leading to discontinuation
- No serious TEAEs leading to discontinuation in either part
