NCT ID NCT06449677

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a device called the iLet Bionic Pancreas, which automatically adjusts insulin delivery based on continuous glucose monitor readings, in people with cystic fibrosis-related diabetes. About 150 participants aged 14 and older will either use the bionic pancreas or their usual insulin method for 13 weeks, then all will use the bionic pancreas for another 13 weeks. The goal is to see if the automated system improves time spent in healthy blood sugar range compared to standard care.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

iLet Bionic Pancreas System (automated insulin delivery device)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could provide a simpler, more effective way to manage blood sugar in cystic fibrosis-related diabetes, reducing the burden of daily insulin adjustments.

What could go wrong

This is a relatively small phase 3 trial (150 people) and results may not apply to all patients. The device may not work as well in real-world settings or could have technical issues.
