About

This study will be a prospective, single center, randomized controlled parallel group open-label trial. Participants with insulin requiring diabetes mellitus who have been offered an organ for living or deceased donor kidney transplantation will be recruited prior to transplantation surgery. Patients will be randomized in a 2:1 fashion to AP (6 patients) and conventional treatment groups (3 patients). At the end of the subject's post-operative in-patient stay, participants will have the option of wearing a blinded CGM at home for 4 weeks while treating themselves with multiple daily injections (MDI).

Full description

The purpose of this study is to conduct a hypothesis-generating pilot study to assess the efficacy and safety of the closed loop control in kidney transplant recipients with history of insulin requiring diabetes mellitus in the early postoperative period.

This study will be a prospective, single center, randomized controlled parallel group open-label trial. Participants with insulin requiring diabetes mellitus who have been offered an organ for living or deceased donor kidney transplantation will be recruited prior to transplantation surgery. Patients will be randomized in a 2:1 fashion to AP (6 patients) and conventional treatment groups (3 patients). At the end of the subject's post-operative in-patient stay, participants will have the option of wearing a blinded CGM at home for 12 weeks while treating themselves with multiple daily injections (MDI).
