| Notes | This
study should determine whether oral spray insulin can replace subcutaneous insulin
in patients with type 1 diabetes. This preliminary study, which will run on a
short and acute test, (breakfast test followed by measurement of blood glucose
under different experimental conditions) will tell us whether this insulin formulation
can be used for long term studies in patients with type 1 diabetes. |
