Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to use an investigational type of technology called Closed-Loop Control (CLC) Medical Platform System to help control blood sugar in people with type 1 diabetes mellitus in a home setting.

Detailed description

The CLC is an artificial pancreas (AP) application that uses advanced closed loop control algorithms to automatically manage blood glucose levels for people with Type 1 Diabetes. The system modulates insulin to keep blood glucose in a targeted range. The CLC will be deployed with different functionalities at different stages of the trial, resulting in variation in what the subject will be responsible for and what the system will drive.These functionalities occur in a randomized cross-over design, each occurring for 8 weeks. These modalities are: 1. SAP=sensor-augmented pump only 2. USS+SAP (d)= Evening and Overnight Closed-Loop Control=SAP during day and CLC starting at dinner and continuing overnight 3. USS+CLC (d)= 24/7 Closed-Loop Control=24-hour Day and Night Closed Loop Control

Outcome results

Primary

Hemoglobin A1c

Overnight CLC achieved by USS+SAP(d) (also known as Evening-Night CLC) will be superior to SAP alone in terms of reduced incidence and risk for hypoglycemia overnight without deterioration in hemoglobin A1c. Outcomes will be stratified by Hemoglobin A1c \< 7.5% vs ≥7.5% and time of day.

Time frame: 8 weeks

Population: This primary analysis was confined to the phase of the study comparing SAP to Evening-Night CLC only when combining group A and B and included the baseline HbA1c and final HbA1c. Data on HbA1c by study phase is included in secondary outcomes.
