Primary Objective: To assess the dose-response pattern of the glucose consumption (GIR-AUC0-end) of 3 different single doses of Afrezza inhaled Technosphere insulin and of 3 single doses of subcutaneous (SC) insulin lispro in a euglycemic clamp setting. Secondary Objectives: To assess the dose proportionality of insulin exposure (INS-AUClast) of 3 different single doses of Afrezza inhaled Technosphere insulin and of 3 single doses of SC insulin lispro in a euglycemic clamp setting. To assess the pharmacodynamic (PD) characteristics of 3 different single doses of Afrezza inhaled Technosphere insulin and of 3 single doses of SC insulin lispro in a euglycemic clamp setting. To assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics of 3 different single doses of Afrezza inhaled Technosphere insulin and of 3 single doses of SC insulin lispro in a euglycemic clamp setting. To assess the safety and tolerability of 3 different single doses of Afrezza inhaled Technosphere insulin.
The total study duration for one patient is approximately 6.7 to 22.7 weeks (minimum to maximum duration, excluding screening). The duration of the study includes a screening period of 3 to 28 days (D -28 to D -3), 6 treatment periods of 1 or 2 days each (1 overnight stay), a washout period of 7 to 28 days (preferentially 7 days between consecutive dosing), and an end-of-study visit of 7 to 14 days after the last study drug administration.
