Study Summary
This trial is testing a new system for delivering insulin to children and young adults with leukemia, during treatment that can cause high blood sugar levels.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for children and young adults over 10 years old newly diagnosed with high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia undergoing induction chemotherapy. Participants must speak English, and those under 18 need a guardian who can also learn about diabetes management. It's not for those with preexisting diabetes, significant kidney or liver disease, untreated thyroid issues, heavy acetaminophen use, skin conditions affecting sensor placement, or severe psychiatric diseases.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety and practicality of using a hybrid closed-loop insulin delivery system to manage high blood sugar in pediatric patients during their first phase of leukemia treatment when they're taking steroids and asparaginase that can cause hyperglycemia.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed for this device-based intervention (hybrid closed-loop insulin delivery system), potential risks may include discomfort at the insertion site of sensors or infusion sets used by the system.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Hybrid Closed-Loop Insulin System During Chemo with Steroid and AsparaginaseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Subjects will receive insulin via hybrid closed-loop insulin delivery system during the chemotherapy phases that contains steroid and asparaginase. This treatment will be initiated within 4 days of starting induction chemotherapy treatment.
