About this study

The MDLAP (MD-Logic Artificial Pancreas)system is as an automatic system to regulate glucose levels by delivery of insulin operable in clinical trial settings. The safety of the system was proved in previous inpatient and outpatient trials in large number of patients. In the current study we aim to optimize post-prandial closed-loop glycemic control by developing an automated MD-bolus calculator and to evaluate its safety and efficacy in controlling postprandial blood glucose when used together with the MD-Logic artificial pancreas system in type 1 diabetes patients.

The study will consist of a pilot study with two segments and a main study segment. The aim of each segment is detailed below:

  1. Pilot Study - Segment 1 - Hybrid meal bolus ratio The aim of this segment is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of different pre-meal bolus dosing compared to full closed-loop operation with no meal announcement.
  2. Pilot Study - Segment 2 - Insulin dosing during meal In this segment we would like to test the optimal distribution of insulin delivery during the meal.
  3. Main study - Segment 3 - Automatic bolus calculator In this main segment of the study we will use the results and conclusions from the previous two pilot segments to develop the MD-Bolus Calculator for closed-loop control use. The safety and efficacy of this automated insulin bolus calculator will be tested in a randomized cross-over study that will compare postprandial glycemic control under MDLAP with and without the use of the MD-Bolus Calculator.

What is being measured

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

  1. Area under the curve above 180 mg/dl (10 mmol/l)

    Measured: 4 hours postprandial

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Time within range of 70-180 mg/dl over 4 hours from the beginning of the meal

    Measured: 4 hours postprandial

  2. The incremental glucose rise from premeal to peak postprandial level

    Measured: 4 hours postprandial

  3. Number of hypoglycemic events below 70 mg/dl (3.9 mmol/l)

    Measured: 4 hours postprandial

  4. The percentage of subjects who reached the desired glucose target (70-180 mg/dl) 4 hours postprandial.

    Measured: 4 hours postprandial

  5. Percentage of time spent below 70 mg/dl (3.9mmol/l)

    Measured: 4 hours postprandial

  6. Percentage of time spent above 180, 250, (10, 13.9 mmol/l)

    Measured: 4 hours postprandial

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing MD-bolus calculator for pre-meal bolus and No MD-bolus calculator for pre-meal bolus in people with Type 1 Diabetes, run by Rabin Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

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 7 inclusion and 7 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 16 Apr 2015. 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 Israel. 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?

Area under the curve above 180 mg/dl (10 mmol/l) (time frame: 4 hours postprandial). 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 16 Apr 2015.
