The multicentre, randomised study is intended to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the low-glucose suspend feature.
A new continuous glucose sensor, Medtronic’s Enlite, will also be tested as part of the overall system.
The primary endpoint of the study is to demonstrate that home use of the low-glucose suspend feature is safe, and is not associated with glycaemic deterioration, as measured by a change in glycated haemoglobin.
The secondary endpoint is to show that home use of the low-glucose suspend feature is associated with a reduction in nocturnal hypoglycaemia when patients fail to respond.
