NCT ID NCT06717451
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is checking how safe and effective an updated insulin pump system (Control-IQ 1.5) is for children ages 2 to 6 with type 1 diabetes. About 144 kids will use the pump for a year while researchers track dangerous low blood sugar events and diabetic ketoacidosis. The goal is to see if the technology helps keep blood sugar in a healthy range in real-world settings.

- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that the updated pump system is safe and effective for very young children, helping them maintain better blood sugar control.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, single-arm observational study with no comparison group, so results may not prove the device is better than other options. Risks include severe hypoglycemia or diabetic ketoacidosis.
