About this study

Official title: Preliminary Study for the Artificial Pancreas Project : Determination of a Tuning Strategy of Metabolic Profiles

The Artificial Pancreas Project developed by SUPELEC and the University Hospital of Rennes is focused on the evaluation of an original control algorithm that computes appropriate subcutaneous insulin infusion in response to continuous glucose measurements The results during a 24-hour closed-loop period will be compared with those of the open-loop. The implementation of this algorithm named Error Dynamics Shaping (EDS) requires as a preliminary a phase of identification of the parameters of the model (insulin pharmacokinetics and effect on glucose metabolism) followed by a phase of optimization i.e. a personalized adjustment of the damping parameters of EDS.

The present study aims to formalize this procedure of identification/optimization of the parameters of the model and controller EDS. They will be determined in type -1 diabetic patients using insulin therapy and under conditions free from disturbances such as those generated by the glucidic meals, i.e. during a period of glucidic fast. Three variables will determine this procedure: blood glucose, insulin concentration and insulin doses.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Blood samplesOther

    The study will be proposed to four patients hospitalized in the Diabetes Unit for a glucidic fast test carried out during 24 hours (lunch, dinner and breakfast). Blood samples will be taken every 20 minutes during 6 hours and 40 minutes to measure plasma insulin concentration and blood glucose. T0 will correspond to the first modification of the insulin basal flow (in more or less) or to the first insulin bolus corrector, usually administered if capillary blood glucose reaches 1.8 g/l. The capillary blood glucose monitoring will be performed every two hours by the nurse.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Dosage of plasma insulin concentration and blood glucose every 20 minutes during 6 hours and 40 minutes

    Identification of the eight parameters of the model including the five parameters of the glucose/insulin metabolism (p1, p2, p3, GB and Ib) and the three parameters of the model of subcutaneous insulin absorption Optimization of the four damping parameters of EDS. These coefficients can be tuned to adjust the damping degree of the error dynamics.

    These procedures of identification and optimization will be carried out under Matlab® and Simulink®.

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Blood samples in people with Type 1 Diabetes, run by Rennes University Hospital at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Feb 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Dosage of plasma insulin concentration and blood glucose every 20 minutes during 6 hours and 40 minutes (time frame: 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Feb 2012.
