Healthy volunteersNot accepted

Inclusion criteria

Age: 18-64 years (both inclusive) at the time of signing the informed consent
For subjects with type 2 diabetes:
Male and female subjects diagnosed with type 2 diabetes
Treated with diet and exercise and/or metformin monotherapy. Metformin dose should be unchanged in a period of 30 days prior to screening
Body Mass Index (BMI) between 20.0-35.0 kg/m^2 (both inclusive)
Glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) between 6.5-9.0 % (both inclusive)
For healthy control group for graded glucose infusion:
Healthy male and female subjects
BMI between 24.0-32.0 kg/m^2 (both inclusive)
HbA1c less than 6.5 %

Exclusion criteria

Female who is pregnant, breast-feeding or intends to become pregnant or is of child bearing potential and not using an adequate contraceptive method. Women of child bearing potential must use an effective method of birth control for the duration of the trial and for subjects with type 2 diabetes for 5 weeks following the last dose of semaglutide. Only highly effective methods of birth control are accepted (i.e. one that results in less than 1% per year failure rate when used consistently and correctly such as implants, injectables, combined oral contraceptives, some intrauterine devices), or sexual abstinence or vasectomised partner
Any clinically significant disease history, in the opinion of the investigator, or systemic or organ disease including: cardiac, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, hepatic, neurologic, renal, genitourinary and endocrine, dermatologic or hematologic
Use of any prescription or non-prescription medication which could interfere with trial pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic results, as judged by the investigator or specifically:
a)current treatment with systemic (oral or i.v.) corticosteroids, non-selective betablockers,
b)thyroid hormones are not allowed unless the use of these have been stable during the past 2 month prior to screening
History of drug/chemical substance abuse within 1 year prior to screening, or a positive result in the urine drug test
History of alcohol abuse within 1 year prior to screening, or a positive result in the alcohol breath test
Smoker (defined as a subject who is smoking more than 5 cigarettes or the equivalent per day)
Not able or willing to refrain from smoking and use of nicotine gum or transdermal nicotine patches during the inpatient period

What's being measured

Protocol endpoints and posted registry outcome measures, grouped into outcome categories. Composite endpoints show their component event types. Standard codes (LOINC, SNOMED CT) are shown where available.

Glycemic / diabetes

8 endpoints
Primary/protocol endpoint

Area under the serum insulin concentration time curve from 0 to 10 minutes after a 25 g glucose bolus i.v. infusion (IVGTT,intravenous glucose tolerance test) over 2 minutes

Time frame:Day -1, day 86

concentration, descriptive

Primary/protocol endpoint

Area under the serum insulin concentration time curve from 10-120 minutes after a 25 g glucose bolus i.v. infusion (IVGTT).

Time frame:Day -1, day 86

concentration, descriptive

Secondary/protocol endpoint

Area under the insulin secretion rate (ISR)-time curve within 0 to 10 min after i.v. glucose challenge

Time frame:Day -1, day 86

descriptive, improvement

Secondary/protocol endpoint

Area under the ISR-time curve within 10 to 120 min after i.v. glucose challenge

Time frame:Day -1, day 86

concentration, descriptive

Secondary/protocol endpoint/low confidence

24-hour plasma glucose, glucagon, serum insulin, and C-peptide measured as total AUC0-24h during a test day with 3 standardised meals

Time frame:Day -1, day 85

concentration, descriptive

Secondary/protocol endpoint

Area under the insulin secretion rate (ISR)-time curve within 0 to 10 min after i.v. arginine application; ISR will be derived from the C-peptide concentration profile

Time frame:Day -1, day 86

C-peptide AUC

change from baseline, improvement

Secondary/protocol endpoint

Area under the ISR curve over the 5-12 mmol/L (90-216 mg/dL) glucose interval; ISR will be derived from the C-peptide concentration profile

Time frame:Day -1, day 87

C-peptide AUC

descriptive

Secondary/protocol endpoint

Slope of the ISR vs. glucose curve (dose-response relationship)

Time frame:Day -1, day 87

change from baseline, improvement
