US-FDA has approved Eli Lilly and Company's new ultra rapid-acting insulin Lyumjev™ (Insulin lispro-aabc injection) for type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

  The US FDA granted approval to Eli Lilly’s Lyumjev™ (insulin lispro-aabc injection, 100 units/mL and 200 units/mL). This is a new rapid fast-acting insulin with a novel formulation to speed up the absorption of insulin into the blood stream and reduce glucose levels post meals, mimicking natural insulin’s post prandial action.

The rapid insulin time-action profile can be attributed to two excipients in the formulation: microdose of treprostinil which increases absorption through vasodilation and sodium citrate which increases local vascular permeability. The approval of the drug was based on two phase 3 studies: PRONTO T1D and PRONTO T2D.
