Brief summary

This is a pilot, interventional clinical trial to assess the effectiveness and safety of artificial pancreas (AP) using the ARG algorithm closed-loop system in a monitored 3-day period outpatient study. Once the safety of the device has been validated in the open-loop first 3-day period (continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) plus continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)) the investigators will move the study to the second 3-day closed-loop period, without carbohydrate (CHO) counting.

Interventions

DEVICENon-hybrid closed-loop system with ARG algorithm

To assess efficacy and safety of non-Hybrid Closed-loop System, without CHO counting
