Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Number of Subjects With a Positive Glucose Response | 0 to 30 minutes post dose | Increase in plasma glucose concentration from below 50.0 mg/dL to greater than 70.0 mg/dL within 30 minutes after receiving glucagon |
| Secondary | Time for Positive Glucose Response | 0 to 180 minutes post dose | Time from administration of glucagon for plasma glucose to rise from below 50.0 mg/dL to above 70.0 mg/dL |
| Secondary | Number of Subjects With a Positive Response for the Combination Endpoint: Positive Glucose Response/Positive Glucose Increase | 0 to 30 minutes post dose | A positive response for this endpoint is a return of plasma glucose to \> 70 mg/dL or an increase in plasma glucose by ≥20 mg/dL within 30 minutes after receiving glucagon |
| Secondary | Number of Subjects With a Positive Glucose Increase | 0 to 30 minutes post dose | Increase in plasma glucose by ≥ 20.0 mg/dL within 30 minutes after receiving glucagon |
| Secondary | Time for Positive Glucose Increase | 0 to 180 minutes post dose | Time from administration of glucagon for plasma glucose to increase by ≥20 mg/dL from baseline |
| Secondary | Number of Subjects With a Positive Response for the Combination Endpoint: Positive Glucose Response/Relief of Neuroglycopenic Symptoms | 0 to 30 minutes post dose | A positive response for this endpoint is a return of plasma glucose to \> 70 mg/dL or clearance of all neuroglycopenic symptoms of hypoglycemia within 30 minutes after receiving glucagon. Four symptoms were assessed: dizziness, blurred vision, difficulty in thinking and faintness. |
| Secondary | Number of Subjects With Relief of Neuroglycopenic Symptoms | 0 to 30 minutes post dose | Clearance of all neuroglycopenic symptoms of hypoglycemia within 30 minutes after receiving glucagon. Four symptoms were assessed: dizziness, blurred vision, difficulty in thinking and faintness. |
| Secondary | Time to Resolution of Autonomic Symptoms | 0 to 180 minutes post dose | Time from administration of glucagon to complete resolution of 4 autonomic symptoms of hypoglycemia. Symptoms included: sweating, tremor, palpitations and feeling of nervousness. |
| Secondary | Time to Resolution of Neuroglycopenic Symptoms | 0 to 180 minutes post dose | Time from administration of glucagon to complete resolution of 4 neuroglycopenic symptoms of hypoglycemia. Four symptoms were assessed: dizziness, blurred vision, difficulty in thinking and faintness. |
| Secondary | Time to Resolution of the Feeling of Hypoglycemia | 0 to 180 minutes post dose | Time from administration of glucagon to resolution of the overall sensation of hypoglycemia. Subjects were asked to answer yes/no to the question, "Do you feel hypoglycemic?" The time point as which the subject first answered "no" was considered the time of resolution. |
