Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment | Phase |
---|---|---|
Type 1 Diabetes | Device: Conventional continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion therapy Device: Dual-hormone closed-loop | Phase 1 Phase 2 |
Study Type : | Interventional (Clinical Trial) |
Estimated Enrollment : | 15 participants |
Allocation: | Randomized |
Intervention Model: | Crossover Assignment |
Masking: | None (Open Label) |
Primary Purpose: | Treatment |
Official Title: | An Open-label, Randomized, Two-way, Cross-over Study to Assess the Efficacy of Dual-hormone Closed-loop Strategy as Compared to Conventional CSII Therapy in Regulating Glucose Levels in Adults With Type-1 Diabetes in the Context of Exercise |

Arm | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
Placebo Comparator: Open-loop
Conventional continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) therapy
|
Device: Conventional continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion therapy |
Experimental: Dual-hormone closed-loop
Variable subcutaneous insulin and glucagon infusion rates will be used to regulate glucose levels. The infusion rates are based on continuous glucose sensor reading and a control algorithm.

Device: Dual-hormone closed-loop |
