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 (MiniMed640G with SmartGuard). 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 using a stable investigational glucagon with an exercise detection algorithm outperforms both single hormone AP and a low glucose suspend algorithm.

Study Arms (3)

Dual Hormone Closed-loop Arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects will undergo a 76 hour study with 9 hours inpatient and 67 hours outpatient using the closed-loop artificial pancreas controller in dual hormone mode and XeriSol glucagon 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 ModeDrug: XeriSol glucagon

Single Hormone Closed-loop Arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects will undergo a 76 hour study with 9 hours inpatient and 67 hours 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

Predictive Low Glucose Suspend Arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects will undergo a 76 hour study with 9 hours inpatient and 67 hours outpatient using the closed-loop artificial pancreas controller in predictive low glucose suspend mode. The system will run through the closed-loop system but will utilize the patient's optimized basal rates, correction factors and carb ratios as they would normally run on their own insulin pump. But the mode 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

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 algorithm has 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. The Closed-loop Artificial Pancreas Controller includes insulin and glucagon delivery algorithm implemented on a smart phone, utilizing sensor glucose values from a Dexcom G5 sensor and sending delivery commands to two Omnipod insulin pumps, one filled with insulin and one with glucagon.

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. The Closed-loop Artificial Pancreas Controller includes insulin delivery algorithm implemented on a smart phone, utilizing sensor glucose values from a Dexcom G5 sensor and sending delivery commands to one Omnipod pump filled with insulin.

Predictive Low Glucose Suspend Arm

XeriSol glucagon is an investigational drug that is a stable, soluble liquid glucagon formulation that can be injected or administered through an insulin pump. XeriSol glucagon will be used to fill the Omnipod to deliver glucagon for the Artificial Pancreas Controller in Dual Hormone mode.
