About this study

The aim of this clinical study is to determine the feasibility, safety, and preliminary effectiveness of the Zone-Model Predictive Control Artificial Pancreas (ZMPC_AP) system in pediatric subjects with type 1 diabetes in an ambulatory semi-supervised environment over a short duration of 3 days and 2 nights, or up to 60 hours.

Read the detailed description

The artificial pancreas platform employed under study is centered about the following four key innovations: 1) A zone model predictive control strategy that is at the same time very safe with respect to hypoglycemia, and can simultaneously and independently be tuned with respect to its response to hyperglycemia; 2) Zone control with diurnal blood-glucose target zones; 3) Models of insulin-glucose physiology and insulin on board; 4) A system for alarming and notification of impending hypoglycemia and technical malfunctions: the Health Monitoring System. These features have been evaluated in several clinical trials in adults with unannounced meals and exercise.

The proposed study will evaluate enhancements to our previous system tailored for the special needs of pediatric subjects: 1) A control strategy with responses to hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia spanning wide ranges, as is typical with children; 2) The use of time-dependent zones specific for pediatric subjects; 3) The development of models for young children, capturing the greater physiologic variability, and ensuring cautious insulin delivery; 4) remote alarming and notification systems that are useful to parents.

What is being measured

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

  1. Hypoglycemia Safety: Number of Participants With Blood Glucose (BG)) Readings < 50 Milligrams/Deciliter (mg/dL))

    Number of participants with more than one confirmed BG < 50 mg/dL

    Measured: 60 hours

  2. Hyperglycemia Safety: Number of Participants With More Than Two Blood Glucose (BG) Readings > 300 mg/dL Longer Than 2 Hour or Any BG 400 > Milligrams/Deciliter (mg/dL))

    No more than two confirmed BG ≥ 300 mg/dL longer than 2 hours, and no BG ≥ 400 mg/dL, unless determined to be from an infusion site failure.

    Measured: 60 hours

  3. Blood Ketone Safety: Number of Participants With Blood Ketone Levels > 1.0 mmol/l for Longer Than 2 Hours or Any Ketone Level> 3.0 mmol/l

    Number of participants with blood ketone level > 1.0 mmol/l for longer than 2 hours, and no blood ketone level >3.0 mmol/L, unless determined to be from an infusion site. failure

    Measured: 60 hours

  4. Safety: Number of Participants Who Experienced an Adverse Event

    Adverse events include seizure, loss of consciousness, severe hypoglycemia, diabetic ketoacidosis

    Measured: 60 hours

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Mean Meter and Sensor Glucose Levels Milligram/Deciliter (mg/dL)

    Mean meter and sensor glucose levels (mg/dL)

    Measured: 60 hours

  2. Percent Sensor Glucose Time in Range (70-180 mg/dL)

    Percentage of time, over the whole evaluation period, during which the glucose level, as determined by the continuous glucose sensor, is between 70-180 mg/dL

    Measured: 60 hours

  3. Percent Sensor Glucose Time Below Range (<70 mg/dL)

    Percentage of time, over the whole evaluation period, during which the glucose level, as determined by the continuous glucose sensor, is below 70 mg/dL

    Measured: 60 hours

  4. Percent Sensor Glucose Time Above Range (>180 mg/dL)

    Percentage of time, over the whole evaluation period, during which the glucose level, as determined by the continuous glucose sensor, is greater than 180 mg/dL

    Measured: 60 hours

  5. Percent Sensor Glucose Time in Hypoglycemia (<60 mg/dL)

    Percentage of time, over the whole evaluation period, during which the glucose level, as determined by the continuous glucose sensor, is below 60 mg/dL

    Measured: 60 hours

  6. Percent Sensor Glucose Time in Hyperglycemia (>250 mg/dL)

    Percentage of time, over the whole evaluation period, during which the glucose level, as determined by the continuous glucose sensor, is greater than 250 mg/dL

    Measured: 60 hours

  7. Percent Time AP System Active

    Percentage of time, over the whole evaluation period, during which the sensor and pump are determined to be wirelessly connected and communicating with each other, based on duration of alert and error messages indicated by the system

    Measured: 60 hours
