ABSTRACT

Despite the importance of insulin and insulin analogs as therapeutic agents for the treatment of type I and II diabetes mellitus (DM), bioanalysis to support regulatory submissions of analogs remains a challenging endeavor. In particular, quantitation of insulin lispro by immunoanalytical methods has largely been limited to assays that display a high degree of cross-reactivity to native insulin because this analog shares extensive primary sequence homology with endogenous insulin and its efficacious circulating concentrations are low. We report herein development of the first noncompetitive electrochemiluminescence-based immunoassay (ECLIA) for specific determination of insulin lispro in serum or plasma. The new sandwich ECLIA permits accurate assessment of insulin lispro pharmacokinetics without interference from endogenous insulin. Integral to the development of this specific immunoassay was establishment of a proprietary process for affinity production of an oligoclonal monospecific guinea pig antiserum to the unique subtle structural modification in insulin lispro. We specifically optimized the ECLIA to provide reliable performance for supporting pharmacokinetic assessments in the pharmacologically relevant concentration range from 50.0 to 5,000 pM with robust performance up to 100,000 pM upon dilution. We concluded the new noncompetitive ECLIA represents a useful and convenient immunoassay for accurate quantitation of insulin lispro during pharmacokinetic assessments.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: SAR342434 (SAR-Lis) is a biosimilar (follow-on) of insulin lispro (U100; Humalog®; Ly-Lis). This study aimed to show similar efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of SAR-Lis versus Ly-Lis in adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) treated with multiple daily injections, while using insulin glargine (GLA-100; Lantus®) as basal insulin. METHODS: SORELLA 2 was a 6-month, randomized, open-label, Phase 3 study (NCT02294474). Insulin doses were adjusted to achieve fasting and 2-h postprandial glucose targets according to American Diabetes Association guidelines. Primary endpoint was the HbA1c change from baseline to week 26 (tested for noninferiority of SAR-Lis vs. Ly-Lis with a margin of 0.3%). Secondary endpoints included fasting plasma glucose (FPG), seven-point self-monitored plasma glucose (SMPG) profiles, hypoglycemic events, treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), and anti-insulin antibodies (AIA). RESULTS: A total of 505 patients were randomized (1:1) to multiple daily injections of SAR-Lis (n = 253) or Ly-Lis (n = 252) plus once-daily GLA-100. Least square (LS) mean (standard error) change in HbA1c from baseline to week 26 was similar in both treatment groups (SAR-Lis, -0.92% [0.051] and Ly-Lis, -0.85% [0.051]). Noninferiority at prespecified 0.3% noninferiority margin was demonstrated (LS mean difference of SAR-Lis vs. Ly-Lis: -0.07% [95% CI: -0.215 to 0.067]) as was inverse noninferiority. Similar changes in FPG, seven-point SMPG profiles, including postprandial glucose excursions and mean glucose over 24 h, and insulin dosages were observed in the two groups. Hypoglycemia, TEAEs, and AIA (incidence and prevalence) did not differ between groups. CONCLUSIONS: Results from this controlled study in patients with T2DM also using GLA-100 support similar efficacy and safety (including immunogenicity) of SAR-Lis and Ly-Lis.

ABSTRACT

Hypoglycemic syndromes associated with immune reactions against insulin are rare phenomena described predominantly in Asians. Steroid therapy, immunosuppression or plasmapheresis is often required. Case report: A 73-year-old White woman with a 20-year history of type 2 diabetes was admitted to hospital due to recurrent incidents of hypoglycemia that started several months after insulin initiation (lispro 75/25) and increased in severity over the next 5 years. They were accompanied by postprandial hyperglycemia up to 25 mmol/l. The patient's glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) was 70 mmol/ mol (8.6%). During hypoglycemic episodes recorded serum C-peptide was 0.57-0.73 nmol/l (1.7-2.2 ng/ml), while insulin concentration exceeded 7000 pmol/l (1000 mIU/l). Surreptitious insulin administration was ruled out as was, based on diagnostic imaging, the presence of an insulin secreting tumor. Anti-insulin antibody (AIA) level measured by 125I-insulin binding method was 92.5% (normal < 8.2%). Hypoglycemic episodes occurred for four days after discontinuation of insulin therapy and then resolved completely. Good glycemic control was maintained with metformin, acarbose and dapagliflozin. Three months later dapagliflozin was replaced with vildagliptine due to poor tolerance of a SGLT-2 inhibitor. Patient's HbA1c was 54 mmol/mol (7.1%), total fasting insulin level 2577 pmol/l and AIA binding 85.9%. Over the next year the patient has not experienced hypoglycemia and maintained good glycemic control, as HbA1c level was 53 mmol/l (7.0%) and AIA binding 39.5%. Conclusions: In this rare case of a patient with diabetes and hypoglycemic syndrome related to AIA, we achieved a rapid and stable remission of hypoglycemia without immunosuppression. Good glycemic control, despite 20-year history of diabetes was achieved with oral hypoglycemic agents.
