About
The goal of this study is to perform a first-in-humans trial of a fully integrated, automated, closed-loop blood glucose control system designed for inpatient use. The GlucoSTAT was designed for use by patients with diabetes while they are in the hospital, and others who may develop high blood sugar as a result of their medical problems.
Full description
Our envisioned end product is an in-patient automated closed-loop control system for PG regulation in the ICU as well as on the general hospital wards. In order to qualify the system for the broad spectrum of challenges it will face in the inpatient setting, this study will test the ability of the new integrated configuration of the system (the GlucoSTAT) to control PG in subjects with extremes of insulin sensitivity. The first goal of this study is to test the safety and efficacy of the control system in insulin sensitive subjects with type 1 diabetes. The second goal of this study is to test the safety and efficacy of the control system in subjects with type 2 diabetes and substantial insulin resistance (TDD > 0.75 u/kg/day, with up to 3 subjects with a TDD > 2 u/kg/day).

Inclusion criteria
Type 1 diabetes:
Type 2 diabetes:
Age 18 years or older with clinical type 2 diabetes for at least 1 year.
Diabetes currently managed using NPH as the basal insulin, which may be supplemented with regular or rapid-acting insulin and/or other anti-diabetic drugs.
Total daily dose (TDD) of insulin that is > 0.75 u/kg
Prescription medication regimen stable for at least 1 month.
Informed consent obtained before any trial-related activities.
Exclusion criteria
Unable to provide informed consent.
Unable to comply with study procedures.
Current participation in another diabetes-related clinical trial that, in the judgement of the principal investigator, will compromise the results of this study or the safety of the participant
Use of a long-acting insulin (in type 1 diabetes subjects) or a long-acting insulin other than NPH (in type 2 diabetes subjects), including insulin glargine (Lantus), insulin detemir (Levemir), insulin degludec (Tresiba), or ultra-lente.
Pregnancy (positive urine HCG), breast feeding, plan to become pregnant in the immediate future, or sexually active without use of contraception.
Electrically powered implants (e.g. cochlear implants, neurostimulators) that might be susceptible to RF interference.
Established history of latex, adhesive, or tape allergy that must be used in the study
Inadequate venous access as determined by study nurse or physician at time of screening.
Employed by, or having immediate family members employed by Beta Bionics, or being directly involved in conducting the clinical trial, or having a direct supervisor at place of employment who is also directly involved in conducting the clinical trial (as a study investigator, coordinator, etc.); or having a first-degree relative who is directly involved in conducting the clinical trial.
A condition that in the opinion of the investigator could interfere with the safe completion of the study. Conditions to be considered by the investigator may include the following:
