AID-BIT Trial Summary

This trial tests if an insulin pump can control diabetes more safely & quickly to improve glycemic control. Participants get randomized to use the insulin pump for 10 days.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with Type 2 Diabetes, diagnosed for at least a year and currently on long-acting insulin like glargine or degludec. They should have an HbA1c level of at least 7.5% and not be using any rapid or intermediate insulins. Women must use contraception if applicable, and participants can't start new diabetes medications during the study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests an Automated Insulin Device (AID) with Control-IQ Technology in people taking basal insulin injections for Type 2 Diabetes. Participants are randomly placed into two groups: one uses the AID for ten days while the other does not, to compare how well each group controls their blood sugar levels.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, typical risks may include low blood sugar episodes (hypoglycemia), skin irritation from device wear, potential allergic reactions to pump materials or insulin used in the pump.

AID-BIT Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Automated Insulin Delivery in the Basal Insulin Titration PhaseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will use Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) for 10 days in the Basal Insulin Titration (BIT) Phase. This group will then return to their original home therapy (basal insulin using pen) using the new setting in the Maintenance Phase (MP) with a blinded CGM. The total daily insulin (TDI) requirement during the BIT Phase will be translated to a basal insulin dose.
Group II: Standard Care with Study Continuous Glucose MonitorActive Control1 Intervention
Participants will use a study Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) along with their original home therapy and will be contacted by a study physician as per standard care to adjust their insulin doses if needed. This group will then transition into a 10-day Maintenance Phase (MP) using a blinded CGM, where the basal dose will be maintained.

What is the principal goal of this clinical experiment?

"The main measure of success for this two-week trial is Percent Time in Range, while additional metrics such as Percent Time Above Range (180 mg/mL.),Percent Time Within Tighter Range (70 to 140 mg/mL.) and Percent Time Below Range (Hypoglycemia: 54mg/ml) are also being monitored."
