Background: Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is a rare disease affecting neonates, infants, and children. CHI is characterized by dysregulated insulin secretion resulting in severe recurrent hypoglycemia. Early treatment is necessary to limit the risk of neurologic and developmental sequelae. Current treatment options are limited and inadequate. Dasiglucagon (DASI) is a glucagon analog suitable for continuous subcutaneous infusion which has been shown to raise...

Background: Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is a chronic and complex rare endocrinopathy with dysregulated insulin secretion causing severe and recurrent hypoglycemia resulting in adverse neurologic and developmental sequelae in children. Current treatment options are limited and often inadequate to treat CHI. Dasiglucagon (DASI), a glucagon analog administered by subcutaneous continuous infusion, has demonstrated reduction in glucose infusion rate (GIR) in P...
