The efficacy and safety of GP40081 (insulin aspart biphasic 30) compared with NovoMix 30 in Type 2 diabetes patients.

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of insulin Aspart-Mix biosimilar candidate GP40081 (GP-Asp30) compared with NovoMix 30 (NN-Asp30). In a randomized open-label, active-controlled, 26-week non-inferiority clinical trial 264 patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus were randomized 1:1 to receive once-daily GP-Asp30 or NN-Asp30. The primary safety end point was the immune response rate.

Clinical Pharmacology of Insulin Aspart Biosimilar GP40071: Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Comparability in Hyperinsulinemic Euglycemic Clamp Procedure.

Insulin aspart is a short-acting insulin analogue that is used to control postprandial glycemia levels in diabetic patients. The aim of this clinical trial was to compare the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of GP40071 (GP-Asp) and NovoRapid Penfill (Novo-Asp) in a hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp (HEC). This trial was conducted as a part of a GP40071 biosimilar clinical development program.

Low 25(OH)D Level Is Associated with Severe Course and Poor Prognosis in COVID-19.

We evaluated associations between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] level and severity of new coronavirus infection (COVID-19) in hospitalized patients. We assessed serum 25(OH)D level in 133 patients aged 21-93 years. Twenty-five (19%) patients had severe disease, 108 patients (81%) had moderate disease, and 18 (14%) patients died.

Clinical phenotypes of primary hyperparathyroidism in hospitalized patients who underwent parathyroidectomy.

Objective: The aim of our study was to investigate the distribution of the PHPT clinical manifestations and biochemical features in patients who underwent parathyroidectomy.

Materials And Methods: Medical records of 449 patients from three Medical Centers (Saint-Petersburg, Russia), hospitalized during a period from 2011 to 2018, were reviewed. History and anthropometric data, laboratory results (iPTH, total and iCa, phosphorus, ALP, 24-h urinary calcium, 25(OH)D) and imaging data (ultrasonography, scintigraphy, CT/MRI scan, DXA) were analyzed.
