Brief Summary

Closed-loop systems are an emerging technology that automate hormone delivery. They are quickly paving the way to revolutionize the treatment of type 1 diabetes. Several categories have emerged: dual-hormone (insulin and glucagon) closed-loop systems and closed-loop systems with insulin only, one variety of which is the low glucose suspend safety feature now available from Medtronic (MiniMed 530G with Enlite). The study described within this protocol is designed to test the efficacy of a new closed-loop algorithm for managing blood glucose in people with type 1 diabetes before and after exercise. The new algorithm will have 3 modes: a single hormone insulin only mode, a dual-hormone insulin and glucagon mode and an insulin only mode with predictive low glucose suspend, all with an exercise detection algorithm. The purpose of this study is to determine whether a dual hormone AP with an exercise detection algorithm outperforms both single hormone AP and a low glucose suspend algorithm and sensor augmented pump therapy using the subject's own insulin pump.

Study Arms (4)

Predictive Low Glucose Suspend Arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects will undergo an 84 hour study with 24 hours inpatient and 60 hour outpatient. The predictive low glucose suspend system will run through the artificial pancreas controller in predictive low glucose suspend mode and utilize the patient's optimized basal rates, correction factor, and carb ratio, but it will have the additional safety net of the pump suspending insulin when it predicts a hypoglycemic event.

Device: Artificial Pancreas Controller in Predictive Low Glucose Suspend Mode

Dual Hormone Closed-loop Arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects will undergo an 84 hour study with 24 hours inpatient and 60 hour outpatient using the closed-loop artificial pancreas controller in dual hormone mode to manage blood sugar that includes an exercise detection component that includes a reduction in insulin delivery and an increase in glucagon delivery upon detection.

Device: Artificial Pancreas Controller in Dual Hormone Mode

Single Hormone Closed-loop Arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects will undergo an 84 hour study with 24 hours inpatient and 60 hour outpatient using the closed-loop artificial pancreas controller in single hormone mode to manage blood sugar that includes an exercise detection component that includes a reduction in insulin delivery upon detection.

Device: Artificial Pancreas Controller in Single Hormone Mode

Sensor Augmented Pump Therapy arm

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Subjects will undergo an 84 hour study with 24 hours inpatient and 60 hour outpatient with subject's insulin pump and glucose sensor, if he/she typically uses one. Subjects will still wear a heart rate monitor uploading to a smart phone.

Device: Subject's insulin pump

Interventions

The artificial pancreas controller contains an algorithm for managing blood glucose in people with type 1 diabetes which includes an exercise detection component. The new algorithm will have 3 modes: a single hormone closed-loop insulin only mode, a dual-hormone closed-loop insulin and glucagon mode and an insulin only mode with predictive low glucose suspend. Closed-loop Artificial Pancreas Controller includes insulin and glucagon delivery algorithm implemented on a smart phone, utilizing sensor glucose values from a Dexcom G4 sensor and sending delivery commands to two Tandem t:slim insulin pumps, one filled with insulin and one with glucagon.

Also known as: APC
Dual Hormone Closed-loop Arm

Subject will continue on their subcutaneous delivery of insulin on his/her own insulin pump using their own basal rates and carb ratios for meal boluses, managing their blood sugar as they normally would.
