Aims: To perform an integrated analysis of the safety and efficacy of dasiglucagon, a glucagon analogue available in a ready-to-use aqueous formulation, to treat severe hypoglycaemia (SH) in type 1 diabetes (T1D).

Materials And Methods: An integrated analysis of dasiglucagon safety was conducted on data from two placebo-controlled trials (placebo-controlled pool) and two placebo-controlled and four non-placebo-controlled trials (broad pool) in adults with T1D. An integrated analysis of dasiglucagon efficacy was conducted of pooled data and within demographic subgroups from the two placebo-controlled and two non-placebo-controlled trials in adults with T1D.

Background: Dasiglucagon is a novel glucagon analog that is stable in aqueous formulation and approved for use in severe hypoglycemia. Concentration QTc analyses are critical for assessing risk of drug-induced QTc prolongation and potential for fatal cardiac arrhythmias such as torsades de pointes.

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine whether dasiglucagon treatment resulted in any clinically relevant effect on cardiac repolarization in healthy volunteers.
