Brief summary
A 6-week crossover study will compare PLGS to SAP outcomes in adults and youth \> 6 years old with type 1 diabetes (T1D).
Detailed description
1. Screening and Enrollment * Informed consent will be signed and eligibility will be assessed * History and physical examination * HbA1c measurement * Urine or serum pregnancy test (if applicable) * Evaluation of Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) and pump experience 2. CGM and (Sensor Augmented Pump) SAP Training Period at Home All eligible participants will be assessed based on their CGM and pump experience to determine if the CGM Training Period, the SAP Training Period, or both are required. 1. CGM Training Period (10-14 days): Participants currently using a CGM may skip the CGM Training Period per investigator discretion, generally requiring that CGM has been used on at least 85% of days during the prior 4 weeks. 2. SAP Training Period (14-28 days): Participants currently using a Tandem pump concomitantly with a Dexcom CGM may skip both the CGM Training and the SAP Training periods per investigator discretion. i. The Tandem SAP pump will be used during the SAP Training Period and pump training will be customized based on prior pump experience 3. PLGS Pilot Phase Prior to the initiation of the crossover trial, 10 adult participants will use the Tandem PLGS pump and CGM system in a 10-day Pilot Period. Data will be evaluated for system usability and predetermined safety metrics before participants ≥12 years old can be randomized into the crossover trial. 4. Randomized Crossover Trial The crossover trial will begin after the data from the Pilot Period have been reviewed. Enrollment of participants 6 to 11 years old will be deferred until data from 100 post-randomization PLGS participant-days have been evaluated from participants 12 to 17 years old and the same predetermined safety metrics used to evaluate the Pilot Period have been satisfied. At the Crossover Trial initiation visit, the following will be done: * The clinician will confirm the participant's willingness to participate in the crossover trial * The participant's HbA1c level will be measured * Random assignment to Group A or Group B Group A: intervention period first (PLGS), control period second (SAP) Group B: control period first (SAP), intervention period second (PLGS) During each of the two 3-week periods, a phone, email, or text contact will occur at 2 and 14 days, and a clinic visit at 7 and 21 days. HbA1c will be measured at the end of each period.

Study design
Intervention model description
Multi-center, randomized, crossover design, consisting of two 3-week periods, with the PLGS System used during one period and SAP therapy used during the other period. The crossover trial will be preceded by a run-in phase in which participants may receive training using the study devices. For 10 adult participants, a PLGS Pilot Period will proceed to the crossover trial to ensure safety and usability objectives are met prior to the start of the crossover trial.
