NCT03579615

Brief Summary

The main objective of the study is to determine whether automated closed-loop using faster-acting insulin aspart will improve glucose control and reduce the burden of hypoglycaemia over a 23-hour period compared to insulin aspart under conditions mimicking under-estimation of meal carbohydrate content or missed meal bolus. Faster-acting insulin aspart (FIASP) is a novel formulation of insulin aspart in which two additional excipients (L-arginine and Niacinamide) have been added, resulting in accelerated initial absorption and more than double the glucose lowering effect in the first 30 minutes after subcutaneous administration using insulin pump. To date, no closed-loop study has been performed to evaluate the benefit of faster-acting aspart over insulin aspart during closed-loop system use.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Time spent in the target glucose range

    Time spent in the target glucose range between 3.9 to 10.0 mmol/l (70 to 180mg/dl) based on sensor glucose levels between the hours of 19:00 on day 1 and 18:00 hours on day 2 of the inpatient stay.

    23 hours

Secondary Outcomes (11)

  • Time spent in the target glucose range within 4 hours of each meal

    4 hours

  • Incremental area under the curve of sensor glucose level within 4 hours of each meal

    4 hours

  • Time spent below target glucose

    23 hours

  • Time spent above target glucose

    23 hours

  • Average, coefficient of variation and standard deviation glucose levels

    23 hours

  • +6 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

FIASP + closed loop device

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects randomised to FIASP and closed loop device will be invited to have blood samples taken at baseline, CGM training, competency assessment, and optimisation of treatment. This is followed by inpatient stay where patients will be using FIASP + closed loop intervention for 24 hours. Participants will be advised to change their usual insulin to the corresponding study visit insulin formulation, 24 hours prior to admission. (For example; if the participant is on insulin aspart, this will be changed to faster-acting aspart 24-hour prior to the admission for closed loop with faster-acting aspart and vice versa).

Device: FIASP + closed loop device

Insulin aspart (standard of care insulin) + closed loop device

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Subjects randomised to insulin aspart (standard of care insulin) and closed loop device will be invited to have blood samples taken at baseline, CGM training, competency assessment, and optimisation of treatment. This is followed by inpatient stay where patients will be using insulin aspart (standard of care insulin) + closed loop intervention for 24 hours.Participants will be advised to change their usual insulin to the corresponding study visit insulin formulation, 24 hours prior to admission. (For example; if the participant is on insulin aspart, this will be changed to faster-acting aspart 24-hour prior to the admission for closed loop with faster-acting aspart and vice versa).

Device: Insulin aspart (standard of care insulin) + closed loop device

Interventions

Participants will be advised to change their usual insulin to the corresponding study visit insulin formulation, 24 hours prior to admission. (For example; if the participant is on insulin aspart, this will be changed to faster-acting aspart 24-hour prior to the admission for closed loop with faster-acting aspart and vice versa).

FIASP + closed loop device

Participants will be advised to maintain their usual insulin 24 hours prior to admission.
