Eleven patients were treated with pure porcine des-phe-insulin (Insulin 02S Hoechst). In seven patients insulin 02S was used because of high insulin requirements. Three cases were treated successfully, one case moderately successfully, there was no success in two cases and in one case the result remains to be seen. In more than half of the patients a considerable decrease of insulin requirement could thus be achieved. Four patients received insulin 02S because of allergy. Success was evident in three cases and at least probable in the fourth case. Results up to now showing less immunogenicity and antigenicity of des-phe-insulin seem to be confirmed clinically.
