About this study

Official title: Development of a Context-aware Glucose Prediction Algorithm in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes

Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) systems have now become an important standard-of-care for people with T1D and have demonstrated a reduction, but not elimination, of hypoglycemia during long-term studies. One limitation of current AID systems is that they have no knowledge about the context or environment that a person is currently experiencing. Contextual patterns can potentially improve the performance of an AID by recognizing environments or patterns of living that are related to changes in glucose. The team at OHSU is developing a context-aware glucose prediction algorithm that will capture context data from the patient both indoors and outdoors. This context data will be provided to the algorithm to allow for detecting contextual patterns that might relate to high or low glucose. The goal of this study will be the creation of a data set that will include contextual patterns along with glucose, insulin and physiological data.

Read the detailed description

Subjects will be on study for 28 days. Sensor glucose, activity, exercise, insulin, indoor and outdoor contextual patterns and meal data will be collected during this time. Subjects will wear the Dexcom G6 CGM system and a physical activity monitor for the entire 28 days. Subjects will continue to use their own insulin pump. Subjects will be asked to also wear a MotioWear indoor/outdoor context-aware tracking tag and to install the MotioWear beacons within their home. Subjects will be randomized to complete either aerobic, high intensity interval training, or resistance exercise videos twice weekly at home during weeks 1 and 2 and once during weeks 3 and 4. Subjects will also ingest a self-selected meal prior to these prescribed exercise sessions. Subjects will eat a high carbohydrate dinner once each week on the same day at the same approximate time of day (but not on the exercise days).

Subjects will use the T1 DEXI mobile app created by OHSU to capture meal and exercise data along with photos of meals the day of exercise and the day after. While at home, subjects will check CBG before and after exercise, for symptoms of hypoglycemia, and for Dexcom G6 alarms for sensor <70 mg/dL and >250 mg/dL.

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of the Mean Absolute Relative Difference When Including Patterns in Hypoglycemia Prediction.

    We used our recently published long short term memory neural network (LSTM) to predict sensor glucose 30-minutes in advance across the entire 4-week study duration when glucose was < 70 mg/dL. We then used the context-aware pattern recognition algorithm to predict when hypoglycemia would occur 30-minutes in the future, and if hypoglycemia was predicted, we included a bias correction that is specific to the hypogylcemia region of glucose measurements. The outcome measure shows the reduction of MARD when the LSTM is corrected using the pattern-based bias correction algorithm. MARD is calculated by subtracting the new sensor glucose - reference value dividing by the reference value. A negative value means that the MARD was reduced. The LSTM is being compared with Dexcom G6 CGM values to determine the MARD. Physiologically relevant thresholds are less than 55 mg/dl, less than 70 mg/dl, above 180 mg/dl and above 250 mg/dl. The Dexcom G6 target range is 70-180 mg/dl.

    Measured: 28 days

  2. Comparison of the Mean Relative Difference When Including Patterns in Hypoglycemia Prediction.

    We used our recently published long short term memory neural network (LSTM) to predict glucose 30-minutes in advance across the entire 4-week study duration when glucose was < 70 mg/dL. We then used the context-aware pattern recognition algorithm to predict when hypoglycemia would occur 30-minutes in the future, and if hypoglycemia was predicted, we included a bias correction that is specific to the hypogylcemia region of glucose measurements. The outcome measure shows the reduction of mean relative difference (MRD) when the LSTM is corrected using the pattern-based bias correction algorithm. MARD is calculated by subtracting the new sensor glucose - reference value dividing by the reference value. A negative value means that the MARD was reduced. The LSTM is being compared with Dexcom G6 CGM values to determine the MARD. Physiologically relevant thresholds are less than 55 mg/dl, less than 70 mg/dl, above 180 mg/dl and above 250 mg/dl. The Dexcom G6 target range is 70-180 mg/dl.

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?

Comparison of the Mean Absolute Relative Difference When Including Patterns in Hypoglycemia Prediction. (time frame: 28 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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?
