Tandem Predictive Low Glucose Suspend Inpatient Feasibility Study

The goal of this study is to assess the functionality of an integrated predictive low glucose suspend system designed to minimize the incidence and duration of hypoglycemia by suspending insulin delivery if hypoglycemia is projected.

About this study

This protocol is designed to test the functionality of a predictive low glucose suspend system under supervised conditions where basal insulin rates are manually increased until a system generated suspension occurs. The study will collect data that will be used for planning a pivotal study, and the study data are intended to be used to support a Premarket Approval (PMA) application.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Diagnosis of type 1 diabetes requiring insulin therapy for at least 12 months
  • Insulin pump therapy for at least 6 months
  • Age ≥18.0 years
  • Subject demonstrates stable insulin regimen including basal rates, insulin sensitivity factor and insulin:carbohydrate ratio for at least 3 months

Exclusion criteria

  • Pregnant (female subjects must have negative urine or serum pregnancy screening test)
  • Severe hypoglycemia resulting in seizure or loss of consciousness in the month prior to enrollment
  • Diabetic ketoacidosis in the month prior to enrollment
  • A current condition that would prevent the use of a CGM sensor or insulin pump, or in the judgment of the investigator is a contraindication to study participation
  • Use of acetaminophen during study participation
  • Current use of any medication intended to lower glucose other than insulin including naturaceuticals, oral or non-insulin injectable medications

Treatment and study plan

t:slim insulin pump with predictive low glucose suspend

Device

To assess the functionality of a predictive low glucose suspend (PLGS) system that uses Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) values to suspend basal insulin delivery when hypoglycemia is predicted as well as resume basal insulin delivery once Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) values begin to increase.

Primary outcomes

  1. Suspension of Insulin Delivery

    Time frame: 8 hours between 9pm and 5am

    To test functionality of the system

  2. Restoration of insulin delivery

    Time frame: 8 hours between 9pm and 5am

    To test functionality of the system

  3. Agreement between algorithm-recommended pump action

    Time frame: 8 hours between 9pm and 5am

    To test functionality of the system

Other outcomes

  1. Duration of insulin suspension

    Time frame: 8 hours between 9pm and 5am

    To test functionality of the system

  2. Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) glucose nadir

    Time frame: 8 hours between 9pm and 5am

    To test functionality of the system

  3. Reference blood glucose

    Time frame: 8 hours between 9pm and 5am

    To test functionality of the system
