Closed-loop strategy is composed of three components: glucose sensor to read glucose levels, insulin pump to infuse insulin and a dosing mathematical algorithm to decide on the required insulin dosages based on the sensor's readings. A dual-hormone closed loop strategy regulates glucose levels through the infusion of two hormones: insulin and glucagon. The objective of this study is to compare, in a randomized multicenter trial, the effectiveness of single-hormone closed-loop, dual-hormone closed-loop, and sensor-augmented pump therapy with low-glucose suspend in regulating day-and-night glucose levels in outpatient settings for 15 weeks in adolescents and adults. The investigators hypothesize that dual-hormone closed-loop will reduce time spent in hypoglycemia compared to single-hormone closed-loop, which in turn will be more effective than sensor-augmented pump therapy with low-glucose suspend.
The investigators propose a randomized cross-over study Phase 1 Clinical trial. 30 type 1 diabetes adult outpatients using insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitoring system will be recruited from the Endocrinology Clinic at the Mayo Clinic Arizona. Participants will be randomly assigned to 4 weeks of using their pump bolus wizards to decide insulin boluses and then 4 wks of using iDECIDE to receive recommendations for insulin dosing, or vice versa. The primary outcomes to compare iDECIDE's insulin dosing algorithm against the pump calculators will be: mean postprandial glucose level and number of events with excessive blood glucose highs and lows.
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is the most common endocrine disorder in children. In France, T1D prevalence is estimated to 12.2 per 100 000. Worldwide T1D incidence increased rapidly in the last decades, around 3% per year. T1D is caused by autoimmune destruction of pancreatic beta cells, leading to hyperglycaemia. T1D was recently associated an important loss in life expectancy compared with the general population. To date, the precise aetiology of T1D onset and the mechanisms involved in T1D remain unknown and no preventive treatment of T1D exists. It is now well admitted that T1D results from a combined effect of genes, environmental factors and gene-environment interactions. Several genetic factors have been reported as associated to T1D, the most important being the human leukocyte antigen class II genes. Whole genome association studies suggested more than 50 T1D other susceptibility locus, but conferring individually a modest risk to develop T1D. Longitudinal studies demonstrated that only a low fraction of genetically predisposed subjects develop T1D and all these genetic factors cannot explain the increase in prevalence of T1D in the latter half of the 20th century, suggesting the implication of environmental factors. Literature has accumulated a lot of evidence for the role of enterovirus in T1D. Several retrospective, prospective, post-mortem human studies, as well as animal studies, strongly suggest contribution of human enteroviruses to the pathogenesis of T1D. Enterovirus probably play a dual role in T1D, some enterovirus being associated with an increased risk of T1D and others with a protective effect. Interestingly, several T1D susceptibility loci are implicated in antiviral response. Epidemiologic and genetic approaches have led to new insights into T1D causation, but a collective explanation is still lacking. The project aims at (1) demonstrating the gene-enterovirus interaction effect on T1D onset and (2) characterizing the "precipitating" effect of enterovirus on T1D by a follow-up study of T1D high-risk subjects (first degree unaffected relatives with positive autoantibodies to islet antigens). A structural originality of this project is to perform a family-based study of gene-enterovirus interaction in T1D using innovative and robust methods. This project will be conducted in close collaboration between our INSERM unit, the Inter-regional network of paediatric diabetology, labelled biobanks (CBC Biotec of Hospices Civils de Lyon and CRB-LRB of Lariboisière' hospital at Paris), the Centre National de Référence des Enterovirus at Lyon and the Centre National de Génotypage at Evry. The investigators will first conduct a 3-years pilot study (2016-2019), based on a sample of 250 nuclear families ascertained through a paediatric T1D proband in four centres. Families will be ascertained during the hospitalization of the proband at the time of T1D diagnosis. The study will be then extended to whole Inter-regional network of paediatric diabetology. This research is a unique opportunity to explore further the implication of enterovirus and their interactions with genetic factors involved in T1D susceptibility and aims to target high-risk T1D subjects. This innovative project opens the door of the development of preventive therapy for T1D.
The MD-Logic Automated Insulin Delivery System is intended for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus for subcutaneous infusion of insulin and the continuous measurement of interstitial glucose to aid in the management of their diabetes. The product automatically adjusts basal insulin delivery and delivers correction boluses in response to real-time glucose measurements by CGM to maintain blood glucose within the desired range, to improve metabolic control without increasing the risk of hypoglycemia. The proposed study is an open-label, two-center, randomized, cross-over study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of night closed-loop control using the MD-Logic automated insulin delivery system compared to sensor augmented pump therapy in poorly controlled patients with type 1 diabetes at home The objective of this pilot study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 4 weeks glucose control using the MD-Logic System in individuals with poorly controlled type 1 diabetes at patient's home

Current intensive insulin therapy in T1D involves prandial insulin boluses depending on the carbohydrate content of each ingested meal. Carbohydrate content of ingested meals is the main determinant of post-meal glucose excursion. Therefore, accurate carbohydrate counting is a critical aspect of managing postprandial blood glucose levels in type 1 diabetes in order to avoid too much or too little insulin resulting in hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia, respectively. Precision of carbohydrate counting is associated with better glycemic control. However, accurate carbohydrate counting is a challenging task for many patients with type 1 diabetes. Recent developments of continuous glucose sensors and insulin infusion pumps have motivated the research toward "closed-loop'' strategies to regulate glucose levels in patients with type 1 diabetes. In a closed-loop strategy, the pump insulin infusion rate is altered based on a computer generated recommendation that rely on continuous glucose sensor readings. A dual-hormone closed-loop strategy has also been recently proposed to regulate glucose levels. In a dual-hormone strategy, subcutaneous insulin delivery is accompanied by subcutaneous glucagon infusion. Postprandial meal glucose control with closed-loop strategy still needs some improvements. The objective of this study is to test in outpatient unrestricted settings whether, in the context of closed-loop strategy, conventional meal carbohydrate counting could be reduced to a simplified qualitative meal size estimation without a significant degradation in overall glycemic control in children and adult patients with type 1 diabetes. The investigators hypothesize that 1) dual-hormone closed-loop strategy with qualitative meal size estimation is equivalent to dual-hormone closed-loop strategy with CHO counting in terms of mean glucose; 2) single-hormone closed-loop strategy with qualitative meal size estimation is equivalent to single-hormone closed-loop strategy with CHO counting in terms of mean glucose;
Closed-loop strategy is composed of three components: glucose sensor to read glucose levels, insulin pump to infuse insulin and a dosing mathematical algorithm to decide on the required insulin dosages based on the sensor's readings. The main objective of this project is to compare the efficacy of single-hormone closed-loop strategy and sensor-augmented pump therapy to regulate glucose levels in outpatient settings for 5 consecutive days in adults with type 1 diabetes. The investigators hypothesized that single-hormone closed-loop strategy will increase the time spent in the target range compared to sensor-augmented pump therapy.
