219-OR: Glucagon Counterregulation in a Hypoglycemic Clamp in Type 1 Diabetes Is Increased by ZT-01, a Novel Somatostatin Receptor 2 Antagonist—A Phase 1b Study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study evaluated the effect of ZT-01 on glucagon counterregulation during hypoglycemia in adults with type 1 diabetes, in a Phase 1b randomized, three-arm, double-blind crossover trial in 23 hypoglycemia aware adults with T1D. Participants underwent three hypoglycemic clamp procedures with 3 or 20 mg ZT-01 or placebo dosed 1 h prior to stepwise glucose clamp conditions using variable rate IV insulin infusion: euglycemia (5.0 ± 0.5 mmol/L), level 1 (3.5 ± 0.3 mmol/L, L1), and level 2 hypoglycemia (2.6 ± 0.2 mmol/L, L2). With ZT-01, peak glucagon increased by up to 15.1 ± 10.5 and 27.1 ± 17.3 pg/mL, in L1 and L2 hypoglycemia, respectively, compared with no increase in L1 and an 8.4 ± 8.4 pg/mL increase in L2 hypoglycemia with placebo (p<0.0001, figure). A counterregulatory response of increased glucose level coinciding with an increased glucagon level was observed more frequently with ZT-01 than placebo. No clinically significant effects on other counterregulatory hormones or hypoglycemia symptom scores were observed with ZT-01. A transient rise in glucagon and blood glucose was observed with ZT-01 post-dose prior to hypoglycemia. No SAEs were reported and no TEAEs were observed with ZT-01. This study demonstrates proof-of-concept that ZT-01 significantly enhances the defective counterregulatory response in people with T1D during L1 and L2 hypoglycemia.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
