MD-Logic Artificial Pancreas for Automatic Type 1 Diabetes Meals Management

April 15, 2015 updated by: Rabin Medical Center

The MDLAP (MD-Logic Artificial Pancreas)system is as an automatic system to regulate glucose levels by delivery of insulin operable in clinical trial settings. The safety of the system was proved in previous inpatient and outpatient trials in large number of patients. In the current study we aim to optimize post-prandial closed-loop glycemic control by developing an automated MD-bolus calculator and to evaluate its safety and efficacy in controlling postprandial blood glucose when used together with the MD-Logic artificial pancreas system in type 1 diabetes patients.

The study will consist of a pilot study with two segments and a main study segment. The aim of each segment is detailed below:

  1. Pilot Study - Segment 1 - Hybrid meal bolus ratio The aim of this segment is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of different pre-meal bolus dosing compared to full closed-loop operation with no meal announcement.
  2. Pilot Study - Segment 2 - Insulin dosing during meal In this segment we would like to test the optimal distribution of insulin delivery during the meal.
  3. Main study - Segment 3 - Automatic bolus calculator In this main segment of the study we will use the results and conclusions from the previous two pilot segments to develop the MD-Bolus Calculator for closed-loop control use. The safety and efficacy of this automated insulin bolus calculator will be tested in a randomized cross-over study that will compare postprandial glycemic control under MDLAP with and without the use of the MD-Bolus Calculator.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years to 25 years (Child, Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame

Time Frame: 4 hours postprandial
4 hours postprandial

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
