Insulin aspart, a rapid-acting analog, achieves faster subcutaneous absorption than regular insulin. This study aimed to demonstrate equivalence in the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) characteristics of Recombinant Human Insulin Aspart from BioGenomics Limited (as test) and Novo-Nordisk (as reference) in healthy adult males. This was a double-blind, randomized, cross-over study, assessing PK and PD parameters under fasting conditions.

Experimental Approach: This was a multicenter, open-label, randomized, parallel-group study in T2 DM patients, on premix human insulin therapy ± oral anti-diabetics. Besides self-monitored plasma glucose, fasting and post-prandial plasma glucose (FPG and PPG) were tested at baseline, week 12, and week 24.
Biosimilar insulin analogues are increasing market access for diabetic patients globally. Scientific establishment of biosimilarity is cornerstone of this key change in the medical landscape. BGL-ASP is a biosimilar insulin aspart developed by BioGenomics Limited, India.

Biological assays are also required to ensure the quality, safety, and efficacy of recombinant biologics to confirm its biosimilarity to its originator. In the present study, analytical similarity between the biosimilar and its innovator is established by in vitro bioassays.
