Brief summary

This study is a Safety Evaluation of the Advanced Hybrid Closed Loop (AHCL) System in Type 1 Adult and Pediatric Subjects.

Detailed description

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of the Advanced Hybrid Closed Loop system (AHCL) in type 1 diabetes adult and pediatric subjects in a home setting. The main objective in conducting this research is to collect data from patients who use the AHCL system at home, at work, at school and everywhere else. Subjects will use 670G 4.0 system with Guardian Sensor 3 (GS3) during study period, and will be allowed to participate in continued access phase, and use 670G 4.0 system with GS3 and 780G system with Guardian 4 Sensor (G4S).

Pre-assignment details

329 subjects (179 with age 7-17 and 150 with age 18-75) enrolled at the beginning, with 25 (10 with age 7-17 and 15 with age 18-75) screen failure, 15 subjects (8 with age 7-17 and 7 with age 18-75) early withdrawn, and 1 subject (age 7-17) who never used AHCL, 288 subjects (160 with age 7-17 and 128 with age 18-75) were left as the Intention to Treat Population and started the study. After completing the study, 207 (130 with age 7-17 and 77 with age 18-75) entered the Continued Access Period

Change in HbA1c

Population: Intention to Treat Population with available data. Twenty-four subjects aged 7-17 and one subject aged 18-75 did not collect A1C at the end of the study period, so 136 subjects aged 7-17 and 127 subjects aged 18-75 were analyzed at end of study period and the change from baseline to end of study period.
