About this study

Official title: Real-Time Monitoring and Glucose Control During Winter-Sport Exercise in Youth With Type 1 Diabetes: The AP Ski Camp Continued

An early feasibility study that will test the efficacy of the Tandem t:slim X2 with Control-IQ and Dexcom Continuous Glucose System G6 in a winter/ski camp environment.

Read the detailed description

This proposal aims to demonstrate the superiority of the Closed-Loop Control (CLC), also known as Artificial Pancreas (AP) named Tandem t:slim X2 with Control-IQ Technology and assess usability in a supervised setting in a controlled environment compared with state-of-the-art Sensor-Augmented Pump (SAP) therapy for the treatment of type 1 diabetes (T1D) in adolescents. Phase 1 participants (13-18 years old) and Phase 2 participants (6-12 years old) will be assessed during a ~48 hour ski camp; Upon completion of the ski camp, Phase 2 participants (6-12 years old) will also be assessed during a ~78 hour home use.

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • Tandem t:slim X2 with Control-IQ Technology + Dexcom G6Device

    Also called Artificial Pancreas, Automated Insulin Delivery Device

    Subjects will use the Tandem t:slim X2 with Control-IQ Technology and Dexcom G6 CGM to control their glycemia. The Tandem t:slim X2 with Control-IQ device is an automated insulin delivery pump that automatically adjusts insulin delivery to predicted and prevailing glucose levels, as measured by a Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitor [CGM].

  • Dexcom CGM G5Device

    Also called Continuous Glucose monitoring

    The Dexcom G5 CGM is a subcutaneous glucose sensor that provides an estimate of the prevailing blood glucose concentration approximately every 5 minutes.The Dexcom G5 sensor alerts the user if the prevailing glucose concentration is higher or lower than predetermined thresholds, or if it is changing too fast. In addition, the Share/Follow functionality of the Dexcom G5 allows up to 5 people ("followers") to receive in real-time information about the current blood glucose concentration and rate of change.

    The Dexcom G5 system will be used by participants and clinical study staff to monitor glucose levels 24h/day during the camp, ensure participants safety, and compute glycemic control outcomes

  • Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin InfusionDevice

    Also called Insulin pump

    Subjects will use a subcutaneous pump to deliver insulin and control their glycemia.

    This outcome looks at the percentage of time spent between 70 and 180 mg/dL during the Daytime, defined as 7am-11pm.

    Measured: Daytime [7am - 11pm]

  3. Percent Time Spent Between 70 and 180 mg/dL

    This outcome looks at the percentage of time spent between 70 and 180 mg/dL during the Overnight, defined as 11pm-7am.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Dexcom CGM G5 and Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion in people with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, run by University of Virginia at 3 sites in United States.

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 11 inclusion and 17 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 1 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United States. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 1 Oct 2024). 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?

Percent Time Spent Between 70 and 180 mg/dL (time frame: Overall [48hr study admission]). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03369067, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 Oct 2024.
