Brief Summary:
This is a stepped glucose clamp study designed to investigate the effect of treatment with albiglutide on counter-regulatory hormone responses and recovery from hypoglycemia in subjects with Type 2 diabetes mellitus. A single dose of albiglutide or placebo will be given prior to a stepped hyper- and hypoglycemic clamp. The goal of this study is to demonstrate that albiglutide increases insulin secretion and decreases glucagon levels in a glucose-dependent manner.
Detailed Description:
This is a Phase II, single-site, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, stepped glucose clamp study designed to investigate the effect of treatment with albiglutide on counter-regulatory hormone responses and recovery from hypoglycemia in subjects with Type 2 diabetes mellitus. A single dose of albiglutide or placebo will be given 3 days before employing a stepped hyper- and hypoglycemic clamp. The goal of this study is to demonstrate that albiglutide increases insulin secretion and decreases glucagon levels in a glucose-dependent manner. In particular, this study is being conducted to ensure that albiglutide does not impair counter-regulatory responses during hypoglycemia.
