About

This is a randomized crossover study testing the efficacy of the Fault Detection algorithms using the Zone MPC algorithm and DiAs artificial pancreas platform in adult patients with type 1 diabetes. The trial will last for 6 weeks for each individual subject, with three weeks using the AP algorithm and three weeks using sensor augmented pump in a randomized order

Full description

Investigational Device:

Artificial Pancreas System with Fault Detection Algorithms: Roche Accu-Check Spirit Combo Insulin Pump, Dexcom G4P System with Share, Diabetes Assistant (DiAs) on Android phone, DiAs Web Monitoring (DWM)

• referred to as Remote Monitoring Server, MPC control algorithm, Health Monitoring System (HMS) algorithm. Sensor and infusion set fault detection algorithms will be applied offline with data obtained from server and notifications will be sent to the clinician.

Control Arm:

Sensor-augmented insulin pump therapy: Subject will use their personal insulin pump and Dexcom G4P System with Share.

Primary Objective:

To determine the efficacy of the fault detection algorithm. The primary outcome is based on the amount of time the sensor glucose is >250 mg/dL in the 4 hours preceding detection of the infusion set failure during sensor augmented pump therapy vs. closed-loop control with fault detection alerts.

Secondary Objectives:

To determine the effectiveness of the sensor fault detection algorithm. To determine the efficacy of the Zone MPC controller by evaluating glycemic outcomes

Number of Subjects:

There will be 20 subjects recruited: 10 at Stanford and 10 at Denver (up to 36 subjects will be enrolled to reach 20 subjects completing the study)

Diagnosis and Main Inclusion Criteria:

Adult subjects between 18 and 55 years of age inclusive, diagnosed with type 1 diabetes.

Trial Design:

This outpatient study will be conducted over 6 weeks as shown in the figure below. The 6-week period will consist of two 2-week blocks of prolonged infusion set wear with a 1-week sensor run-in period preceding each block. In each block, subjects will wear an infusion set for up to 7 days. A new infusion set will be inserted at the start of each week in the block. Following enrollment procedures, subjects will be randomized at a ratio of 1:1 to either use the AP system with fault detection algorithms (intervention) or sensor-augmented pump therapy (control) in the first block.

Enrollment: 20 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 55 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

1. Clinical diagnosis of type 1 diabetes for at least 12 months
2. Daily insulin therapy for at least 12 months
3. Age between 18.0 to 55.0 years of age
4. Use of an insulin pump for at least 3 months
5. Subject comprehends English
6. Females of childbearing potential must use an adequate method of contraception and have a negative pregnancy test
7. Total daily insulin requirement ≥ 0.3 units/kg/day
8. Subject has an adult companion, age > 18 years, who lives with the subject, has access to where they sleep, is willing to be in the house when the subject is sleeping and willing to attend to the subject if there are safety concerns -

Exclusion criteria

1. Diabetic ketoacidosis in the past 6 months
2. Hypoglycemic seizure or loss of consciousness in the past 6 months
3. Subjects requiring an intermediate or long-acting insulin (such as NPH, detemir or glargine)
4. Subjects using other anti-diabetic medications other than insulin (oral or injectable) at the time of enrollment. Any prior use of other anti-diabetic medications must be washed out for at least 8 weeks prior to enrollment.

10. Subject has renal failure on dialysis
11. Systolic blood pressure > 160 mmHg on screening visit
12. Diastolic blood pressure > 90 mmHg on screening visit
13. Subjects with inadequately treated thyroid disease or celiac disease
14. Subject has a neurologic disorder that in the judgment of the investigator will affect completion of the protocol
15. Subject has received inpatient psychiatric treatment in the past 6 months
16. Subject consumes more than an average of 4 standard alcoholic drinks/day in the last 30 days
17. Subject has an active skin condition that would affect sensor placement
18. Subject is unable to avoid acetaminophen for the duration of the study
