Brief summary

This clinical trial is a safety and feasibility study to assess the performance of an artificial pancreas (AP) system using the Zone Model Predictive control (Zone-MPC) and Health Monitoring System (HMS) algorithms embedded into the iAPS platform for pregnant patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D).

Detailed description

The system will be evaluated on up to 21 pregnant adult subjects with type 1 diabetes age 18-45 years old at three clinical sites (Sansum Diabetes Research Institute, Mayo Clinic Rochester MN and Mt Sinai Hospital, New York City). Subjects will complete a 48-60 hour closed-loop (CL) session in a supervised outpatient environment with medical staff present. During the session, subjects will bolus for all meals and snacks, and will perform their usual daily activities while being accompanied by study medical staff. For subjects who wish to continue use of the system, they will be offered the option of continuing use of the system at home in an extension phase, for the rest of their pregnancy.

Interventions

DEVICEAutomated Insulin Delivery

Participants will use the Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) iAPS system for 48-60 hours in a medically supervised session. For subjects who wish to continue use of the system, they will be offered the option of continuing use of the system at home in an extension phase, for the rest of their pregnancy.

Inclusion criteria

* Age ≥ 18 and ≤ 45 years at the time of screening. * Clinical diagnosis of type 1 diabetes * Currently using an insulin pump at the time of screening. * HbA1c ≤ 9%, as performed by point of care or central laboratory testing. * Pregnant 14+0/7 to 32+6/7 weeks gestation. * Singleton pregnancy without any other significant known complications, such as preeclampsia, premature rupture of membranes, 2nd/3rd trimester bleeding, fetal growth or fluid abnormalities. * No proven or suspected fetal malformations diagnosed in the current pregnancy. * Bolus for all meals and snacks that contain ≥ 5 grams of carbohydrate. * Willing to switch to, or continue Novolog or Humalog for the closed-loop session. * Willingness not to start any new non-insulin glucose-lowering agent during the course of the trial. * Willing to abide by the study protocol and use study-provided devices. * Have a care partner with the following responsibilities: knowing subject whereabouts and being promptly available for contact by study staff during the day and night, residing in the same dwelling as subject during the night, being agreeable to all device training during the supervised HCL session and additional training on hyper- and hypoglycemia treatment, and assisting with emergency care if needed, such as transportation to the hospital or emergency department.

Exclusion criteria

* Known unstable cardiac disease or untreated cardiac disease, as revealed by history or physical examination. * Concurrent use of Afrezza or any non-insulin glucose-lowering agent other than metformin (including GLP-1 agonists, Pramlintide, DPP-4 inhibitors, SGLT-2 inhibitors, sulfonylureas). * Hemophilia or any other bleeding disorder * Prior history of Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes (PPROM) * Significant hyperemesis interfering with carbohydrate intake * Laboratory results: 1.
