NCT05083559

Brief Summary

An artificial pancreas (AP) is a control system for automatic insulin delivery. The investigators have implemented a missed meal bolus detection algorithm for use within an AP control system. The robust R-AP system used in this protocol has been designed to handle a variety of real-world scenarios that are critical to a high-risk patient population. The investigators will test how well the new algorithm handles missed or inaccurate meal announcements. This type of algorithm may significantly improve glucose control over the standard model predictive control (MPC) closed-loop algorithm without these new algorithm features for patients with type 1 diabetes.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Postprandial Glucose

    Incremental AUC of postprandial glucose in the 4 hours following the start of first meal. AUC (mg/dL\*hr) will be calculated using a trapezoidal method, which sums all CGM values taken every 5 minutes in the 4 hour period following the meal above the starting glucose. This yields a maximum of 48 data points for the calculation.

    4 hour period following the first meal

  • Percent of Time With Sensed Glucose Between 70-180 mg/dl

    Assess the percent of time that the Dexcom G6 reported sensor glucose values between 70-180 mg/dl using Dexcom sensor for the four hour period following the first meal.

Secondary Outcomes (8)

    4 hour period following the first meal

  • Number of Carbohydrate Treatments

  • Number of Provider-administered Insulin Injections

Study Arms (2)

MPC AP system

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will use the MPC AP system for automated insulin delivery for a 9 hour study visit.

Device: MPC AP algorithm

Robust R-AP system

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will use the Robust R-AP system for automated insulin delivery for a 9 hour study visit.

Device: Robust R-AP algorithm

Interventions

The Model Predictive Control (MPC) insulin infusion algorithm contains a model within the controller that takes as an input the aerobic metabolic expenditure in addition to the CGM and meal inputs. The algorithm uses heart rate and accelerometer data collected on the patient's body to calculate metabolic expenditure. The metabolic expenditure then acts on the model for the insulin dynamics, whereby more energy expenditure and longer duration exercise can lead to a more substantial effect of insulin on the CGM.

MPC AP system

The R-AP is a modified MPC algorithm. A new feature in the algorithm includes a model for missed meal insulin detection. The model includes estimations for carbohydrate consumption based glucose patterns to determine if that person has consumed a meal without announcing it to the system.

  • Total daily insulin requirement is less than 139 units/day.
  • Willingness to follow all study procedures, including attending all clinic visits.
  • Willingness to sign informed consent and HIPAA documents.

You may not qualify if:

  • Female of childbearing potential who is pregnant or intending to become pregnant or breast-feeding, or is not using adequate contraceptive methods. Acceptable contraception includes birth control pill / patch / vaginal ring, Depo-Provera, Norplant, an intra-uterine device (IUD), the double barrier method (the woman uses a diaphragm and spermicide and the man uses a condom), or abstinence.

  • Major surgical operation within 30 days prior to screening.
  • Use of an investigational drug within 30 days prior to screening.
  • Chronic usage of any immunosuppressive medication (such as cyclosporine, azathioprine, sirolimus, or tacrolimus).
  • +8 more criteria
