FIASP FLEXTOUCH (insulin aspart)
Trial Activity: Declining 3 active trials
Metabolic
Approved 2017-09-29
FIASP FLEXTOUCH (insulin aspart) is a rapid-acting human insulin analog. It is indicated to improve glycemic control in both adult and pediatric patients with diabetes mellitus. This medication serves as a therapeutic intervention for managing blood sugar levels in these patient populations.
How FIASP FLEXTOUCH Works
This drug regulates glucose metabolism by stimulating peripheral glucose uptake, particularly in skeletal muscle and fat. It further lowers blood glucose levels by inhibiting the production of glucose in the liver. Additionally, the medication inhibits the breakdown of fats and proteins while enhancing protein synthesis.

How We Calculate These Metrics
Trial Activity Stage
Measures the current development activity pattern based on trial phases, status, and trends. Important: This measures R&D activity, not commercial lifecycle.
Trial statuses: "Active" means recruiting or ongoing. "Completed" means reached planned endpoint. "Terminated" means stopped early—often due to safety, efficacy, or business reasons.
- Growth: High proportion of early-phase trials (Phase 1/2), active development
- Expansion: Significant Phase 3 activity, approaching or pursuing approvals
- Mature: Substantial Phase 4 post-marketing studies
- Stable: Mixed phase distribution, steady development
- Declining: Low active trial ratio, reduced R&D investment
