What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tested an updated version of the Control-IQ system, which automatically adjusts insulin delivery for people with type 1 diabetes. Sixty-six adults and adolescents used the new software along with a continuous glucose monitor for several weeks. The main goal was to see if the improvements could reduce dangerously low blood sugar levels and prevent severe hypoglycemia and diabetic ketoacidosis.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Control-IQ technology 2.0 (a software update for the t:slim X2 insulin pump) used with the Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitor
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a safer, more effective automated insulin delivery system that reduces the risk of severe low blood sugar in people with type 1 diabetes.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early feasibility study (66 participants) testing planned improvements, not a final product. The results may not apply to all users, and the technology could still have safety issues or fail to perform as expected.
