NO-Meal Announcement in Automated Insulin Delivery (Open-source and Commercial) Systems (NOMAD)

6 agosto 2026 aggiornato da: Rémi Rabasa-Lhoret, Institut de Recherches Cliniques de Montreal

Automated insulin delivery (AID) systems are the current gold standard for the management of type 1 diabetes (T1D), improving glycemic control, reducing hypoglycemia, and decreasing treatment burden. Although both commercial AID (C-AID) and open-source AID (OS-AID) systems have demonstrated significant clinical benefits, direct randomized comparisons between these systems remain scarce. Moreover, an important limitation of currently available AID systems is their reliance on user-initiated meal announcements and carbohydrate counting, which remain major contributors to postprandial dysglycemia and treatment burden. While emerging evidence suggests that AID systems may partially compensate for missed meal announcements, their comparative performance under these challenging real-world conditions is unknown.

The NOMAD study is an international, multicenter, open-label, randomized, non-inferiority crossover trial designed to compare an open-source AID system with commercially available AID systems (including Tandem Control-IQ and Omnipod 5) in adults with type 1 diabetes currently using an open-source AID system. The study specifically evaluates glycemic outcomes following standardized unannounced meal challenges performed under free-living conditions.

A total of 33 participants will be enrolled and complete two 4-week intervention periods, each consisting of a 2-week run-in phase followed by a 2-week data collection phase, with crossover between treatment arms. Participants will continue using their own Dexcom G6 or Dexcom G7 continuous glucose monitoring system throughout the study.

The primary outcome is the percentage of time spent in the target glucose range (3.9-10.0 mmol/L) during the 4 hours following standardized unannounced meal challenges. Secondary outcomes include additional CGM metrics (time above and below range, glucose variability, mean glucose, and GMI), insulin delivery characteristics, and patient-reported outcomes evaluating treatment satisfaction, usability, and diabetes-related burden.

Descrizione dettagliata

AID systems have become the preferred treatment for T1D, improving glycemic control, reducing hypoglycemia, and decreasing treatment burden compared with conventional insulin therapy. Both C-AID and OS-AID systems have demonstrated substantial clinical benefits, including increased time in range and improved patient-reported outcomes. However, despite their growing adoption, few randomized controlled trials have directly compared these systems under standardized conditions.

One of the major remaining challenges for current AID systems is the management of meals. Most commercially available systems are hybrid closed-loop systems that require users to announce meals and estimate carbohydrate intake before eating. Inaccurate carbohydrate estimation, delayed boluses, or missed meal announcements are common in daily life and contribute substantially to postprandial hyperglycemia and overall treatment burden. Although AID algorithms can partially compensate for these situations through automated insulin adjustments, their effectiveness varies between systems and has not been directly compared under real-world conditions.

This study aims to compare the performance of open-source and commercial AID systems during standardized unannounced meal challenges performed under free-living conditions. Adults with T1D who are experienced users of an OS-AID system will participate in a randomized, open-label, crossover trial in which they will use both their usual OS-AID system and a commercially available AID system. Throughout the study, participants will use the same Dexcom continuous glucose monitoring system to ensure consistent glucose assessment across study periods.

The primary objective is to determine whether OS-AID is non-inferior to commercial AID for maintaining postprandial glucose control following unannounced meals, as measured by the percentage of time spent in the target glucose range during the 4 hours after meal initiation. Secondary objectives include comparing overall glycemic outcomes, glucose variability, insulin delivery characteristics, and patient-reported outcomes related to treatment satisfaction, diabetes burden, and usability. The study will also explore differences in insulin dosing behavior, including user-initiated boluses, between the two AID approaches.

By evaluating glycemic performance in a common real-world scenario where meal announcements are omitted, this study will provide evidence regarding the comparative effectiveness, safety, and user experience of open-source and commercial AID systems. The findings are expected to inform clinical decision-making, support individualized selection of AID systems, and contribute to the development of future automated insulin delivery technologies that further reduce the burden of diabetes self-management.

Descrizione

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Males and females ≥ 18 years old currently residing in Canada or the United States of America (USA)
  • Having a clinical diagnosis of T1D for at least one year (based on the investigator's judgment; C peptide level and antibody determinations are not needed.)
  • Having been on OS-AID therapy for at least 2 weeks and using a Dexcom G6 or G7 CGM.
  • If using an ultra-rapid acting insulin, be willing to switch to a rapid-acting insulin, as the former are not recommended in the C-AID systems used in the study (due to the risk of cannula or pod blockage).
  • Accepting that personal pump setting parameters will be collected by the research team. This access will be limited to the study period.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Using regular insulin (Novolin ge Toronto or Humulin R) or U200 or U500 concentrated insulin (e.g. Humalog U200, Entuzity U500)
  • Participant-reported clinically significant nephropathy (eGFR < 25 ml/min/1.73m2, planned or on dialysis), neuropathy (e.g., known uncontrolled gastroparesis) or retinopathy (e.g., proliferative retinopathy with ongoing active treatment such as laser photocoagulation or planned surgery) as judged by the investigator
  • Recent (<3 months) acute macrovascular event (e.g., acute coronary syndrome or cardiac surgery)
  • Anticipated therapeutic change (including change of CGM sensor [other than Dexcom sensors] or AID system type, new antidiabetic drug initiation) between admission and end of the study
  • % of time spent out of automated mode exceeding 10% in last month's trial start
  • Anticipated need to use hydroxyurea during the study period (as it can interfere with CGM readings)

Participants will use their own OS-AID system, including Loop, AndroidAPS, or OpenAPS, in combination with a compatible insulin pump and Dexcom G6 or Dexcom G7 continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). These systems use open-source algorithms to automatically adjust insulin delivery based on real-time CGM data through adaptive basal insulin modulation and, depending on the platform, automated correction boluses. Participants will continue using their established OS-AID settings throughout the intervention period without software updates and will be asked to perform two unannounced meal-challenges.
Comparatore attivo: Commercial-AID
Participants will use a C-AID system compatible with Dexcom CGM, including Tandem t X2 with Control-IQ or Omnipod 5, depending on their device and study allocation. Participants will receive study-provided equipment and training. During the data collection phase, participants will complete two standardized unannounced meal challenges under free-living conditions. CGM and insulin pump data will be collected throughout the intervention period.
Participants will use a commercially available hybrid closed-loop AID system compatible with Dexcom G6 or Dexcom G7 CGM. Depending on study allocation and participants' usual device, the commercial system will include Tandem t X2 with Control-IQ technology or Omnipod 5. Participants not already using a compatible commercial AID system will receive study equipment and standardized training before initiating the intervention. Commercial AID systems automatically adjust insulin delivery based on continuous glucose measurements using manufacturer-specific algorithms while continuing to recommend user-initiated meal announcements and boluses for optimal performance.
