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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This study tested a smart system that combines a Bluetooth-enabled insulin pen with a continuous glucose monitor to help people with type 1 diabetes manage their blood sugar. 179 participants used either the smart system or standard insulin injections and glucose monitoring for 6 months. The goal was to see if the smart system helped them stay in their target blood sugar range more often.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Smart MDI System (InPen smart insulin pen and Simplera continuous glucose monitor)
What this could lead to
If successful, this smart system could help people with type 1 diabetes spend more time in their target blood sugar range, making daily diabetes management easier and safer.
What could go wrong
This is a completed study comparing a device to standard care, so results are already known. However, the device may not work for everyone, and benefits might be modest.

Subject is on MDI therapy with intermittent scanning or Continuous Glucose Monitoring (isCGM/CGM) ≥ 3 months prior to screening. 5. Subject has high compliance with sensor wear, per investigator assessment. 6. Subject has a Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) ≥ 8% (64 mmol/mol) as assessed locally at time of screening visit. 7. Subject is willing to take or switch to one of the InPen-compatible insulin types, NovoRapid™, Fiasp™, Humalog™ and Lyumjev™. 8. Subject or parent(s)/legal guardian(s) has a compatible mobile phone with Internet access. 9. Subject or parent(s)/legal guardian(s) is willing and able to provide written informed consent, comply with all study procedures and wear all study devices, as required during the study. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Subject is using a Medtronic InPen™ for at least 3 months prior to screening. 2. Subject has untreated/unstable Addison's disease, growth hormone deficiency, hypopituitarism or definite gastroparesis, untreated coeliac disease, untreated thyroid disorder, or poorly controlled asthma, per investigator judgment. 3. Subject is planning to initiate or change to another glucose modifying therapy (for example pramlintide, DPP-4 inhibitor, GLP-1 agonists/mimetics, metformin or SGLT2 inhibitors). 4. Subject has taken any oral, injectable, or intravenous (IV) glucocorticoids within 8 weeks from time of screening visit, or plans to take any oral, injectable, or IV glucocorticoids during the course of the study chronically. 5.

Subject has any unresolved adverse skin conditions in the area of sensor placement (e.g. psoriasis, dermatitis herpetiformis, rash, Staphylococcus infection). 7. Subject is actively participating in an investigational study (drug or device) wherein he/she has received treatment from an investigational study drug or device in the last 2 weeks before enrollment into this study, as per investigator judgment. 8. Subject is currently abusing illicit drugs, marijuana, alcohol or prescription drugs (other than nicotine), per investigator judgment. 9. Subject has any other disease or condition that may preclude the patient from participating in the study, per investigator judgment. 10.
