Brief summary
The overall aim of the clinical investigation is to confirm clinical performance, treatment satisfaction, adherence and safety of Actiste 1.0 and the Companion \- Page 1 of 5 - app with TBL Backend when used by subjects with diabetes in need of insulin treatment. Primary objective: To assess diabetes treatment satisfaction in subjects with diabetes type 1 or type 2 in need of insulin treatment when using Actiste 1.0 and the Companion app with TBL Backend Secondary objective: To assess clinical performance and treatment adherence in subjects with diabetes type 1 or type 2 in need of insulin treatment when using Actiste 1.0 and the Companion app with TBL Backend
Detailed description
This is a prospective, single-arm, post-market clinical investigation to verify clinical performance, treatment satisfaction, adherence and safety of Actiste 1.0 and the Companion app with TBL Backend, referred to as Actiste diabetes management system (ADMS) when used as intended by subjects diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus Type 1 or Type 2 (T1DM or T2DM). In total, 70 subjects diagnosed with T1DM or T2DM (35 subjects per type) using Glargine U100 basal insulin with or without oral antidiabetic drugs/bolus insulin regimen will be enrolled at 1 site in the UK. Each subject will be evaluated during a period of 6 months. Eight (8) visits are planned for each subject during the clinical investigation, including 3 visits to the study clinic and 5 visits conducted as telephone calls. During the visits, evaluations will be performed to assess blood glucose levels, adherence to the treatment plan, quality of life and treatment satisfaction. Data on blood glucose values, insulin injections and diabetesrelated data from the Companion app and TBL Backend will be shared by the subject.Each participant will be provided with the ADMS, including Actiste 1.0, and the Companion app for their smartphone with the TBL Backend. No comparator will be used.
Interventions
DEVICEDevice: Actiste 1.0 and the Companion app with TBL Backend
Actiste automatically logs and shares real-life data on blood glucose values and actual injected insulin doses. With Actiste's built-in sensor, the exact injected dose is displayed and saved in the device memory together with a time stamp, which makes it easy for the user to know how much and when the insulin was injected, and spot missed doses. This simplifies the daily diabetes care for the user and thus may improve the quality of life for people with diabetes and may improve the patients' adherence to treatment plans.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (change, DTSQc), at 3 months | 3 months | The Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (Change, DTSQc) will be completed during the on-site visit at 3 months. The DTSQc is a modified version of the DTSQs designed to overcome ceiling effects and to detect changes in treatment satisfaction. Answers on a 7 graded scale from -3 to 3. In majority, higher score means better outcome. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Percentage and absolute change in HbA1cat 3 and 6 months, compared to baseline | 6 months | During each on site visit, glycosylated haemoglobin(HbA1c) will be assessed. A blood sample will be taken by the site staff and HbA1c will be assessed per clinical routine at the site. |
| Percentage and absolute change in fasting blood glucose at 3 and 6 months, compared to baseline | 6 months | Fasting glucose will be assessed per standard of care at the investigation site. Fasting glucose will be assessed using the Actiste device at least 4 times in the last 10 days (assessment period) before the investigation visit. The final data will be a mean of the measurements during the assessment period. The data will be extracted by the patient to a PDF file and provided to site 2 days before the visit. Site will ask what day and time the fasting blood glucose data was assessed. The data will also be summarised at the end of the investigation and the interim analysis with data from the Companion app and TBL Backend. |
| Absolute and percentage change in DTSQ (Status) at 6 months, compared to baseline | 6 months | The Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (Status, DTSQs) will be completed during the on-sitevisits at baseline and at 6 months.The DTSQs is recommended for measuring patient satisfaction with diabetes treatment. Answers on a 7 graded scale from 0 to 6. In majority, higher score means better outcome. |
| Absolute and percentage change in EQ-5D-5L (each separate question and VAS) at 3 and 6 months, compared to baseline. | 6 months | The EQ5D5L questionnaire will be completed during the on-site visits at baseline and at 3 and 6 months. The EQ-5D-5L contains 5 questions, each with a 5 graded answer scale from I am unable to... to I have no problems .... The VAS scale is a scale from 0-100, where 100 means the best health you can imagine and 0 the worst health you can imagine |
| Summary of adherence in the population, from baseline to 3 months, from 3 months to end of investigation and from baseline to end of investigation. | 6 months | Adherence will be summarised at 3 and 6 months by assessing number and percentage of missed basal insulin injections per subject during the period between the visits, compared to the subject's treatment plan. For most subjects, a basal insulin injection is performed at 22.00 in the evening, per standard clinical routine. |
