About this study

Official title: Study to Assess Artificial Intelligence-Assisted Insulin Titration System on Inpatients Glucose Control

This is a multi-center, open-labeled, parallel group, randomized controlled trial to access the effect and safety of the Artificial Intelligence Assisted Insulin Titration System (iNCDSS) in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Read the detailed description

As one of the most common treatments for diabetes inpatients, insulin regimens often vary due to different physicians. Since 2016, Zhongshan Hospital has set up the Internet-based glucose management system (iGMS) to monitor plasma glucose of diabetes patients, and further set up an Artificial Intelligence Assisted Insulin Titration System (iNCDSS) to recommend insulin regime in 2019. Previous single-center clinical trial (NCT04053959) have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of iNCDSS in glycemic management in patients with type 2 diabetes.

This multi-center study enrolls 120 patients with Type 2 Diabetes from 20 wards of Zhongshan Hospital who are on treatment with insulin for at least 3 months. They are randomly allocated into 2 groups at a ratio of 1:1 after screening for the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Patients in the Intervention group (AI group) receive insulin regimen set by iNCDSS and patients in Control group receive insulin regimen recommended by endocrinologists.

This study will be conducted in the Department of Endocrinology, Zhongshan Hospital,Fudan University and consist of a 7-day intervention period. Patient allocation will be stratified by HbA1c, BMI and previous total insulin doses. The primary endpoint is the fasting plasma glucose level after the 7-days trial period.

What participants receive

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

  • iNCDSS based insulin regimeDrug

    Also called iGMS + iNCDSS based insulin regime

    Patients of this group will receive the insulin regime set by the AI assisted insulin titration system (iNCDSS).

  • Physician based insulin regimeDrug

    Also called iGMS + routine insulin treatment regime

    Patients of this group will receive the insulin regime recommended by professional endocrinologists.

What is being measured

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

  1. Fasting plasma glucose of T2D patients

    Fasting plasma glucose of T2D patients by self-monitoring of bloodglucose (SMBG) in both groups

    Measured: After 7-day intervention

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Well-controlled rate of fasting blood glucose

    The well-controlled rate of blood glucose is defined as proportion of the time of sensor glucose measurements in targeted range

    Measured: During 7-day intervention

  2. Incidence of hypoglycemia

    The hypoglycemia is defined as blood glucose level less than 3.9mmol/L.

    Measured: During 7-day intervention

  3. Total insulin dose

    The total insulin dose is defined as daily insulin dose.

    Measured: During 7-day intervention
