Popis: NN304 is a long-acting insulin analogue that is acylated with a 14-C-fatty acid chain. Protraction of action of this novel insulin analogue is due not to slow absorption after subcutaneous administration but to reversible binding to albumin. We investigated the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of insulin analogue NN304 (0.3 and 0.6 U/kg) in comparison to NPH insulin (0.3 and 0.6 IU/kg) in 10 healthy volunteers performing a randomised, double-blind, cross-over, placebo-controlled glucose clamp study. During the observation period of 24 hours the areas under the insulin curve for NPH[0.3 IU/kg] vs. NPH[0.6 IU/kg] were 60 vs. 102 nmol min l(-1) (p
