About this study

Official title: Evaluation of a Closed-loop Insulin Delivery System at Home With Tailored Home Care Services in Poorly Controlled Type 2 Diabetes: a Randomized Controlled Trial vs Usual Care

Closed-loop insulin delivery system has the potential to improve the condition of many poorly controlled insulin-treated Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) patients.

A wide acceptance of the Artificial Pancreas (AP) usage in T2D care will strongly depend on the identification of subpopulations and care settings where the AP could significantly improve the risk- and cost-benefit balances of T2D management as compared to established practice.

The aim of this interventional study, therefore, is to investigate whether a therapeutic solution combining an automated insulin delivery AP system with a tailored Home Healthcare Provider (HHP) service can improve blood glucose control, reduce the rate of acute metabolic complications (hypoglycaemia and hyperglycaemia), improve both the patients quality of life and experience, and reduce the healthcare related costs in patients with uncontrolled T2D needing home nursing care for their daily insulin treatment versus usual care.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time in Range (TIR)

    Time In Range, defined as the percentage of time spent with glucose measurements at 70-180 mg/dL (3.9-10.0 mmol/L) recorded by continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), during the last 14 days completed CGM recording from days 70 to 90

    Measured: From days 70 to 90

Secondary outcomes (10)

    Measured: At selection (baseline) and study end (day 90) visits

  10. Body Weight

    Body weight (expressed in kg) recorded by investigators at initiation (day 0) and study end (planned on day 90) visits

    Measured: At initiation (day 0) and study end (day 90) visits

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing home healthcare services in people with Diabetes Type 2, run by Air Liquide Santé International at 10 sites in France.

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 19 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 20 Apr 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in France. 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 20 Apr 2025). 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?

Time in Range (TIR) (time frame: From days 70 to 90). 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 20 Apr 2025.
