Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Safety and efficacy of the system, as assessed by the composite outcome of time in range for glucose levels of 70-180 mg/dL and time < 70 mg/dL.

    The primary endpoint for this pilot study will be to determine the safety and efficacy of the system, as assessed by the composite outcome of time in range for glucose levels of 70-180 mg/dL and time \< 70 mg/dL, comparing between sensor-augmented pump use (open loop care) (week 1) to closed-loop care (final week), so as to determine the feasibility of eventual long-term use of the system.

    1 Week

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • Time in range for glucose 80-140 mg/dL

    1 Week

  • Time in range for glucose during the nocturnal period

    1 week

  • Time in Range Postprandial

    1 Week

  • Markers of hypo- and hyperglycemia

    1 Week

  • Insulin Doses Given

    1 Week

  • +4 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Sensor-Augmented Pump Open-Loop Care (Week 1)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The subjects Sensor-Augmented Pump Open-Loop Care for the first week of the study before any adjustments to pump settings.

Device: CGM and Insulin Pump

Closed-Loop Control System with Zone MPC and HMS

EXPERIMENTAL

The artificial pancreas system will be allowed to employ its Model Predictive Control algorithm to make decisions about insulin delivery based on measured glucose levels. The Health Monitoring System algorithm uses the same CGM data as the MPC control algorithm but utilizes a separate algorithm for trending and predictions of future glucose values. Using a redundant and independent algorithm is an important safety feature of the overall AP device.

Device: Closed-Loop Control System

Interventions

Dexcom G4 Platinum CGM with Share AP Receiver Roche Accu-Chek insulin pump

Sensor-Augmented Pump Open-Loop Care (Week 1)

The devices that will be used in the Closed-Loop Control System include the following components: DiAs - a smart-phone medical platform; Dexcom Dexcom G4 Platinum connected to DiAs via Bluetooth CGM receiver; Roche Accu-Chek insulin pump connected to DiAs via wireless Bluetooth; Remote Monitoring Server connected to DiAs via 3G or local Wi-Fi network, and Zone-MPC and HMS algorithms running on DiAs (MPC and HMS)

Eligibility Criteria

Age21 Years - 65 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Clinical diagnosis, based on investigator assessment, of type 1 diabetes for at least one year and using insulin for at least 1 year and an insulin pump for at least 6 months
  • Willing to wear the study CGM device for the duration of the study
  • Age ≥21 to \<65 years
  • HbA1c \<10.0%; if HbA1c \<6.0% then total daily insulin must be ≥0.5 U/kg
  • For females, not currently known to be pregnant If female and sexually active, must agree to use a form of contraception to prevent pregnancy while a participant in the study. A negative urine pregnancy test will be required for all premenopausal women who are not surgically sterile. Subjects who become pregnant will be discontinued from the study.
  • Demonstration of proper mental status and cognition for the study
  • Currently using insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio to calculate meal bolus sizes
  • Hypoglycemia awareness as demonstrated by a Clarke Hypoglycemia Unawareness score of 2 or lower
  • Access to internet and cell phone service at home, and a computer for downloading device data
  • Availability of care partner committed to participating in training activities, knowledgeable at all times of the participant's location, and being present and available to provide assistance when system is being used at night
  • Commitment to maintaining uninterrupted availability via cell phone and avoiding any overnight travel for the duration the period using the closed-loop system
  • An understanding of and willingness to follow the protocol and sign the informed consent

You may not qualify if:

  • Admission for diabetic ketoacidosis in the 12 months prior to enrollment
  • Severe hypoglycemia resulting in seizure or loss of consciousness in the 12 months prior to enrollment
  • History of a seizure disorder (except hypoglycemic seizure), unless written clearance is received from a neurologist
  • Coronary artery disease or heart failure, unless written clearance is received from a cardiologist
  • History of cardiac arrhythmia (except for benign premature atrial contractions and benign premature ventricular contractions which are permitted)
  • Cystic fibrosis
  • A known medical condition that in the judgment of the investigator might interfere with the completion of the protocol such as the following examples:
  • Inpatient psychiatric treatment in the past 6 months for either the subject or the subject's primary care giver (i.e., parent or guardian)
  • Presence of a known adrenal disorder
  • Abnormal liver function test results (Transaminase \>2 times the upper limit of normal); testing required for subjects taking medications known to affect liver function or with diseases known to affect liver function
  • Abnormal renal function test results (calculated GFR \<60 mL/min/1.73m2); testing required for subjects with diabetes duration of greater than 5 years post onset of puberty
  • Active gastroparesis
  • If on antihypertensive, thyroid, anti-depressant or lipid lowering medication, lack of stability on the medication for the past 2 months prior to enrollment in the study
  • Uncontrolled thyroid disease (TSH undetectable or \>10 mlU/L); testing required within three months prior to admission for subjects with a goiter or who are on thyroid hormone replacement, and within one year otherwise
  • Abuse of alcohol or recreational drugs
  • +8 more criteria
