About

An open-label, phase IB, multi-center study evaluating DM199 in subjects with Type 1 Diabetes or Type 2 Diabetes and Stage 3 or 4 Chronic Kidney Disease. The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate safety, tolerability, and PK profile of DM199 in these subjects.

Full description

The study evaluates the safety, tolerability, and PK profile of DM199 in subjects with T1D or T2D and with Stage 3 or Stage 4 CKD. Additionally, this study evaluates urine concentrations of KLK1 pre and post dose.

Cohort 1: Subjects with T1D or T2D and Stage 3 CKD will be administered one of three DM199 doses: 3.0 ug/kg or 5.0 ug/kg or 8.0 ug/kg single SC dose. Cohort 2: Subjects with T1D or T2D and Stage 4 CKD will be administered a single 3.0 µg/kg single SC dose. Secondary and exploratory study objectives include collection and analysis of vital signs, biomarkers, eGFR, blood glucose, and ECG's.

Enrollment: 33 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

• Subject has any other clinically significant abnormalities in laboratory test results at screening that would, in the opinion of the Investigator, increase the subject's risk of participation, jeopardize complete participation in the study, or compromise interpretation of study data.

• Subject has any of the following conditions as determined by ECG or medical record:

  • Any significant arrhythmia or conduction abnormality, which, in the opinion of the Investigators and Medical Monitor, may interfere with the safety of the subject.
