About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Double-blind, Randomized, Two-way, Cross-over Pilot Study to Provide Preliminary Evidence of the Efficacy of Rapid-acting Aspart Compared to Faster Acting Aspart Within the Context of Single-hormone Closed-loop Strategy at Regulating Postprandial Glucose Levels in Adults With Type 1 Diabetes

Closed-loop strategy is composed of three components: glucose sensor to read glucose levels, insulin pump to infuse insulin and a dosing mathematical algorithm to decide on the required insulin dosages based on the sensor's readings.

The objective of this pilot study is to inform both the decision whether to conduct a confirmatory study and the design of the larger confirmatory trial. In addition, we want to estimate postprandial glucose levels parameters and confidence interval in an 11-hour in-patient study with standardized conditions in adults with type 1 diabetes, estimate the size and direction of the treatment effect.

Faster insulin Aspart (FiAsp) will provide preliminary evidence of efficacy to regulate postprandial glucose levels compared to rapid-acting Aspart in adults with type 1 diabetes using insulin pump therapy.

What participants receive

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

  • Insulin pumpDevice

    The participant's insulin pump will be used to infuse insulin

  • Continuous glucose monitoring systemDevice

    The Dexcom G4 Platinum will be used to measure glucose levels

  • 11-hour intervention with the single-hormone artificial pancreasOther

    Subjects will be admitted at IRCM at 9:30. An intravenous catheter will be inserted into an arm or a hand vein for blood sampling purposes. A cartridge containing rapid-acting Aspart or faster acting Aspart will be placed in the insulin pump. Closed-loop strategy will start at 10:00 until 21:00. A glucose sensor reading will be entered manually into the computer every 10 minutes. The computer will generate a recommendation for the basal rates of insulin delivery. Pumps' parameters will then be changed manually to implement the computer generated recommendations.

    At 12:00, a lunch meal will be served. An insulin bolus will be given 15 minutes before the meal. At 17:00, a dinner meal will be served. As recommended, an insulin bolus will be given at the time of the meal. Each subject will ingest the same meals during both visits.

    Venous blood samples will be obtained for the measurement of plasma glucose and insulin concentrations. Blood samples will be taken every 20 minutes.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Insulin pump, Continuous glucose monitoring system and 11-hour intervention with the single-hormone artificial pancreas in people with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Institut de Recherches Cliniques de Montreal.

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 4 inclusion and 11 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Change in plasma glucose levels 1 hour after the meal (time frame: 1 hour). 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 27 Apr 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
