The secondary objective of this study is to monitor the safety and tolerability of a single
dose subcutaneous injection of RapilinTM 30 or NovoMix® 30 when administered in
healthy human adult male subjects under fasting condition 
Vital signs [blood pressure, pulse rate and temperature measurement by infrared
thermometer] and wellbeing will be assessed after dosing at 01.00, 03.00, 06.00 and
13.00 hours in each study period. In addition, at all times, subjects may report side effects
spontaneously to the monitoring staff

Brief Summary   A randomized, double blinded, balanced, two treatment, two period, two sequence, cross over, euglycemic clamp study to compare the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic activity of Insulin under fasting condition. 4.1. Primary Objective The primary objective of this study is to • To assess the pharmacokinetics profile of RapilinTM 30 (30% insulin aspart and 70% insulin aspart protamine suspension) injection with NovoMix® 30 (30% insulin aspart and 70% insulin aspart protamine suspension) of Novo Nordisk, India after single dose subcutaneous injection in healthy human adult male subjects under fasting condition. • To assess the pharmacodynamics profile of RapilinTM 30 (30% insulin aspart and 70% insulin aspart protamine suspension) injection with NovoMix® 30 (30% insulin aspart and 70% insulin aspart protamine suspension) of Novo Nordisk, India after single dose subcutaneous injection in healthy human adult male subjects under fasting conditions using Euglycemic clamp technique by means of Glucose Infusion Rate (GIR). The GIR time profile reflects the pharmacodynamics time action profile of administered insulin in healthy human adult male subjects under fasting condition. 4.2. Secondary Objective The secondary objective of this study is to monitor the safety and tolerability of a single dose subcutaneous injection of RapilinTM 30 or NovoMix® 30 when administered in healthy human adult male subjects under fasting condition. 4.3. Study Rationale This study is being conducted to compare the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic activity of RapilinTM 30 (30% insulin aspart and 70% insulin aspart protamine suspension) injection with NovoMix® 30 (30% insulin aspart and 70% insulin aspart protamine suspension) of Novo Nordisk, India after single dose subcutaneous injection in healthy human adult male subjects under fasting condition Bioequivalence Criteria Pharmacokinetic Parameter Based on the 90% confidence intervals for the difference of means of ln-transformed AUC0-24 and Cmax will be drawn whether the test product is bioequivalent to the reference product under fasting condition. The acceptance range for bioequivalence is 80.00-125.00% for the 90% confidence intervals for the difference of means of lntransformed AUC0-24 and Cmax with respect to Insulin. For Pharmacodynamic Parameters: Based on the 95% confidence intervals for the difference of means of ln-transformed GIR-AUC0-24 and GIRmax conclusions will be drawn whether the test product is bioequivalent to the reference product under fasting conditions. The acceptance range for bioequivalence is 75.00-133.00% for the 95% confidence intervals for the difference of means of ln-transformed GIR-AUC0-24 and GIRmax with respect to Glucose Infusion Rate.
