Validation of a Biomathematical Model to Help Identify the Parameters of Flexible Insulin Therapy

Sponsor: Nantes University Hospital

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease that requires daily treatment with insulin. The use of subcutaneous pumps for continuous insulin delivery has been an important advance for diabetic patients. The evolution of technologies through the miniaturization of insulin pumps and the advent of continuous glucose sensors has made it possible to understand the development of the artificial pancreas. Several teams are working on the development of an artificial pancreas with considerable progress in closed-loop insulin delivery, particularly during the night. The Laboratory of Digital Sciences of Nantes has developed a new bio-mathematical model describing the glucose-insulin dynamics, closer to the physiological reality of patients with type 1 diabetes. This model allows firstly to identify the parameters of flexible insulin therapy (basal rate, insulin sensitivity, carbohydrate ratios). The objective of this study is to test the relevance of this bio-mathematical model to help the physician identify the parameters of flexible insulin therapy (basal rate, insulin sensitivity, carbohydrate ratios).
