About this study

A premarket, international multicenter, prospective, open label, adaptive, randomized controlled study.

The aim is to evaluate the efficacy of sensor augmented pump therapy with MiniMed™640G and SmartGuard™in preventing hypoglycemic events in comparison with continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion therapy in type 1 diabetes adults with an increased risk of hypoglycemia. The primary objective is to demonstrate a reduction in the mean number of hypoglycemic events when using the MiniMed™640G system with SmartGuard™ and the secondary objectives will aim at evaluating the difference in glycemic parameters and HbA1c.

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • MiniMed™640G and Suspend before lowDevice

    Also called MiniMed™640G and SmartGuard™, MiniMed™640G and Predictive Low Glucose Management

    All enrolled subjects will start a run in phase, receive training and start pump therapy with the MiniMed™640G insulin pump and usage of blinded Continuous Glucose Monitoring. Eligible subjects that meet the randomization criteria assessed after the running phase will be randomized into the treatment or control arm. Treatment Arm: training and start of Sensor Augmented Pump therapy with Suspend before Low feature of SmartGuard turned ON.

    Control Arm: continuation of pump therapy alone with blinded continuous glucose monitoring for a total of 6 weeks during the treatment phase.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing MiniMed™640G and Suspend before low and MiniMed™640G in people with Type 1 Diabetes, run by Medtronic MiniMed, Inc. at 14 sites in 4 countries.

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 8 inclusion and 15 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 21 Jan 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 sites in France, Netherlands, Italy, United Kingdom. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 6 Nov 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Mean Number of Sensor Glucose Hypoglycaemic Events Below or Equal to 55 mg/dL Per Patient/Week. (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02733991, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 21 Jan 2020.
