Comparison of SAR341402 to NovoLog in Adult Patients With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus Also Using Insulin Glargine

Sanofi210 enrolled

Overview

Primary Objective: To demonstrate similarity in pharmacokinetics (PK) of SAR341402 and NovoLog after 4x4-week periods of alternating administration of SAR341402 and NovoLog compared to 16-week continuous use of NovoLog in participants with Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) also using insulin glargine. Secondary Objectives: * To compare the effects of alternating administration of SAR341402 and NovoLog with continuous use of NovoLog on immunogenicity. * To evaluate the safety of alternating administration of SAR341402 and NovoLog versus continuous use of NovoLog. * To compare other PK parameters between the two treatment arms (alternating administration of SAR341402 and NovoLog and continuous use of NovoLog).

The study duration per participant was less than 19 weeks (for participants who did not require the run-in period) and less than 31 weeks (for participants who require the run-in period).

Inclusion criteria: * Participants with T1DM. * Participants on continuous insulin treatment for at least 12 months prior to screening. * Participants exclusively on a multiple (greater than or equal to 3) daily injection insulin analogue regimen using: * NovoLog as mealtime insulin for at least 12 weeks prior to screening and * Insulin glargine (100 units per milliliter \[U/mL\]) as basal insulin for at least 12 weeks prior to screening. Note: Participants not meeting this criterion could also qualify, provided that they completed the run-in period during which NovoLog and Lantus was administered so that, at the time of randomization, the participants had been on NovoLog and insulin glargine (100 U/mL) for at least 12 weeks (including any potential pre-screening administration). * Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) less than or equal to 10 percent (%) (85.79 millimoles per mole) at screening. * Body mass index less than or equal to 35 kilograms per meter square (kg/m\^2) at screening. Exclusion criteria: * Pancreatectomy and/or islet cell transplantation. * Clinically significant laboratory findings, as defined by the protocol. * Known presence of factors that interfered with the HbA1c measurement. * History of severe hypoglycemia required emergency room admission or hospitalization within 3 months prior to screening. * Hospitalization for recurrent diabetic ketoacidosis within 3 months prior to screening. * Retinopathy or maculopathy with one of the following treatments, either recent (within 3 months of screening) or planned: intravitreal injections or laser or vitrectomy surgery. * Use of glucose lowering treatments other than the multiple dose injections and basal insulin regimen (including use of insulin pump therapy), within 12 weeks prior to screening. * Participants had received systemic glucocorticoids for one week or more within 3 months prior to screening (topical, nasal spray, inhaled or intra-articular applications are allowed). * Participants had received systemic immunosuppressive agents within 6 months prior to screening. The above information was not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a participant's potential participation in a clinical trial.

Secondary Outcomes

Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Anti-Insulin Aspart Antibodies (AIAs)

AIA was categorized as: treatment-induced AIA, treatment-boosted AIA, and treatment-emergent AIA. Treatment-induced AIAs: participants who developed AIA following investigational medicinal product (IMP) administration (participants with at least one positive AIA sample at any time during on-treatment period, in those participants without pre-existing AIA or with missing Baseline sample). Treatment-boosted AIAs: participants with pre-existing AIAs that were boosted to a significant higher titer following IMP administration (participants with at least one AIA sample with at least a 4-fold increase in titers compared to Baseline value at any time during on-treatment period, in those participants with pre-existing AIA). Participants with treatment-emergent AIA were defined as participants with treatment-induced, or treatment-boosted AIAs. On-treatment period was defined as the time from the first injection of IMP up to the last injection of IMP + 1 day.

Time frame: From first injection of IMP (Day 1) up to 1 day after the last injection of IMP (i.e., up to Day 113)

Number of Participants With at Least One Hypoglycemic Event

Severe hypoglycemia: event in which participant required assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions, because participant was not capable of helping self. Documented symptomatic hypoglycemia: event in which typical symptoms of hypoglycemia (SOH) were accompanied by measured plasma glucose concentration (PGC) less than or equal to (\<=) 3.9 millimoles per liter (mmol/L)(\<70 milligrams per deciliter \[mg/dL\]) or \<3.0 mmol/L(\<54 mg/dL). Asymptomatic hypoglycemia: event without SOH and with measured PGC of \<=3.9 mmol/L (\<70 mg/dL) or \<3.0 mmol/L (\<54 mg/dL). Probable symptomatic hypoglycemia: event with SOH not accompanied by plasma glucose determination but was presumably caused by PGC \<=3.9 mmol/L (70 mg/dL). Relative hypoglycemia: event with SOH but with measured PGC greater than (\>) 3.9 mmol/L (70 mg/dL).

Time frame: From first injection of IMP (Day 1) up to 1 day after the last injection of IMP (i.e., up to Day 113)

Number of Hypoglycemic Events Per Participant-year

Number of hypoglycemia events (any, severe, documented \[both threshold\], asymptomatic \[both threshold\], probable symptomatic and relative) per participant-year of exposure were reported. Severe hypoglycemia: event in which participant required assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions, because participant wasn't capable of helping self. Documented symptomatic hypoglycemia: event in which typical SOH were accompanied by measured PGC of \<=3.9 mmol/L (\<70 mg/dL) or \<3.0 mmol/L(\<54 mg/dL). Asymptomatic hypoglycemia: event without SOH and measured PGC of \<=3.9 mmol/L (\<70 mg/dL) or \<3.0 mmol/L(\<54 mg/dL). Probable symptomatic hypoglycemia: event with SOH not accompanied by plasma glucose determination but was presumably caused by PGC \<=3.9 mmol/L (70 mg/dL). Relative hypoglycemia: event with SOH but with measured PGC \>3.9 mmol/L (70 mg/dL).

Time frame: From first injection of IMP (Day 1) up to 1 day after the last injection of IMP (i.e., up to Day 113)

Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Treatment-emergent Serious Adverse Events (TESAEs)

An Adverse Event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug and did not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. Serious adverse events (SAEs) were defined as any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: resulted in death, was life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/ incapacity, was a congenital anomaly/birth defect, was a medically important event. TEAEs were defined as AEs that developed, worsened or became serious during the on-treatment period (from first injection of IMP up to 1 day after the last injection of IMP).

Time frame: From first injection of IMP (Day 1) up to 1 day after the last injection of IMP (i.e., up to Day 113)

Pharmacokinetics: Time to Reach Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Insulin Aspart Following Administration of Either SAR341402 (Switching Arm) or NovoLog (Non-switching Arm)
