Dasiglucagon for the Treatment of Children with Congenital Hyperinsulinism (for children under 1 year of age)

This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that will evaluate the safety and efficacy of dasiglucagon in children between the ages of 7 days and 12 months who have congenital hyperinsulinism. Dasiglucagon will be given as a subcutaneous infusion while patients are admitted to the hospital. Other treatments for hyperinsulinism may be changed as allowed while maintaining safe blood sugar levels. For the second part of the study, patients may be able to go home on the medication.

RIZE Clinical Trial for Individuals with Hyperinsulinism

Our team is working on a clinical drug trial that involves giving you a study drug that is not FDA-approved called RZ358. The goal of the trial is to test the study drug safety, how your body processes the drug, how the drug affects your body, and see if it can increase your blood sugar. If you agree to take part, your participation will last for up to 27 weeks and include 4 weeks of screening, 8 weeks of treatment, and a 15 week follow-up period. It is possible that treatment with the study drug infusions may improve your blood sugar levels and/or reduce the use of other medication(s) to prevent hypoglycemia.
