Popis: Aims: In this randomized, single blind, cross-over study 2.5mg and 5mg of the modified-release terbutaline formulation (SKP-1052) were compared with conventional immediate-release terbutaline (IRT, 5mg) and placebo on overnight blood glucose (BG) and hypoglycaemia in 30 subjects with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Methods: Subjects received subcutaneous injections of insulin glargine (individualized doses) before dinner. SKP-1052, IRT or placebo was administered around 21:00 hours. BG and terbutaline concentrations were monitored overnight for 10 h post-dosing. Endpoints comprised of the nadir BG (BGn 0–10 h, primary endpoint), mean overnight BG (BGmean), morning BG (BGmorning) and hypoglycaemia rates as well as pharmacokinetic (PK) endpoints. Results: SKP-1052 delayed release of terbutaline by 2 h [PK-tmax (mean±SD) 5.0±2.1 h (2.5 mg) and 4.7±1.7 h (5 mg) vs. 2.6±1.3 h with IRT, p
