About this study

Official title: A Randomized Clinical Trial to Assess the Efficacy of Adjunctive Closed Loop Control Versus Sensor and Pump Therapy in the Management of Type 1 Diabetes Prone to Hypoglycemia

This study is a RCT of 3 month at home comparing closed-loop control (CLC) system vs sensor and pump therapy (S\&P), with a 3-month extension phase, in Type 1 diabetic patient prone to hypoglycemia. After a 2-week run-in phase with blinded CGM, patients who spent 5% or more time below 70mg/dL will be eligible to continue. They will will be randomly assigned 2:1 to the use of closed-loop control (CLC) using Tandem Control-IQ vs S\&P for 3 months, which is the timing of the primary outcome for the RCT. After 3 months, the S\&P group will use CLC for up to 3 months and the CLC group will continue using CLC for up to 3 additional months.

Read the detailed description

This study is randomized controlled trial of 3 month at home closed-loop control (CLC) system vs sensor and pump therapy (S\&P), with a 3-month extension phase. The objective is to assess the efficacy and safety of home use of a Control-to-Range (CTR) closed-loop (CL) system in patients with type 1 diabetes prone to hypoglycemia.

The CLC system will consist of Tandem Control-IQ Automated Insulin Delivery System (AIDS), including Tandem X2 insulin pump with embedded Control-IQ algorithm and Dexcom G6 CGM

After consent is signed, eligibility will be assessed. All participants will initiate a run-in phase of 2 weeks of blinded Dexcom G6 CGM wear and personal insulin pump.

Prior to overall initiation of the RCT, the time spent with CGM below 70 mg/dl during the run-in phase will be assessed. Only patients showing % time with CGM <70 mg/dl of 5% or above can be randomized. Included patients who cannot be randomized will be replaced.

Subsequent participants who show randomization criteria during the run-in phase will be randomly assigned 2:1 to the use of closed-loop control (CLC) using Tandem Control-IQ vs S\&P for 3 months, which is the timing of the primary outcome for the RCT.

After 3 months, the S\&P group will use CLC for up to 3 months and the CLC group will continue using CLC for up to 3 additional months.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Eric M RENARD, MD, PhD (+33 467 338 382, e-renard@chu-montpellier.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Difference in percent of time spent with blood glucose level below 70 mg/dL (time frame: 3 months). 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 NCT04266379, 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.
