Innovative Automated Insulin Delivery System for Type 2 Diabetes

Eligibility Criteria

• 1. Age \>18 years old at the time of screening (date informed consent form signed)
• 2. Clinical diagnosis of type 2 diabetes based on investigator assessment of at least 6 months duration at time of screening.
• 3. Using one of the following insulin regimens for at least 13 weeks prior to screening: (1) basal-bolus insulin therapy with at least one injection containing rapid-acting insulin per day, (2) open-loop insulin pump, (3) premixed insulin with a rapid component, (4) basal insulin without bolus insulin.
• 4. If using noninsulin glucose-lowering medications (such as GLP-1 receptor agonist, SGLT2 inhibitor, or other) or weight-reduction medications that can have a meaningful effect on glycemia, dose has been stable for at least 4 weeks prior to screening in the judgement of the investigator, and there are no plans to change the dose during the duration of the study. If not using glucose-lowering or weight-reduction medications that can have a meaningful effect on glycemia, participant agrees to not initiate such medications during the duration of the study.
• 5. Willing and able to use only insulin approved for use in the study pump.
• 6. Has the ability to read and understand written English or another language available as an option for the pump's user interface.
• 7. Investigator believes that the participant has the cognitive capacity to provide informed consent.
• 8. Investigator believes that the participant can successfully and safely operate all study devices and is capable of adhering to the protocol and completing the study.
• 9. Willing to participate in the study meal and exercise challenges and have a care partner willing to be trained in hypoglycemia treatment guidelines present during and immediately after the exercise challenges (not required if exercise sessions will be done in clinic).
• 10. Participants capable of becoming pregnant must meet one of the following criteria:
• 1. Type 1 diabetes
• 2. Use of an FDA-approved or non-FDA approved closed-loop or hybrid closed-loop insulin delivery system within the past 3 months.
• 3. Pregnancy (as demonstrated by a positive test) or breast-feeding at time of screening or planning to become pregnant during the next 4 months.
• 4. Concomitant disease or condition that in the opinion of the investigator may compromise patient safety including but not limited to; cystic fibrosis, severe mental illness, a diagnosed or suspected eating disorder or any uncontrolled long term medical condition that would interfere with study related tasks or visits.
• 5. Current use of implantable CGM sensor (e.g., Senseonics)
• 6. Current use of at least 500 mg of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C)
• 7. Presence of a hemoglobinopathy or other condition that is expected to affect the measurement of HbA1c in the judgment of the investigator.
• 8. Immediate family member (spouse, child, sibling, parent) of any person at an investigative site who is directly affiliated with this study or who is an employee of Sequel Med Tech, Millyard Advanced Medical Products LLC, Merrimack Manufacturing, or DEKA Research and Development Corp.
• 9. More than 2 severe hypoglycemic events requiring third party help or hospitalization within the last 6 months prior to screening
• 10. More than one DKA or HHS event within the last 6 months prior to screening
• 11. Lack of reliable telephone or internet service (for contact)
• 12. Known allergy to medical grade adhesives or skin condition that precludes use of the study pump or CGM
• 13. Current participation in another diabetes-related interventional clinical trial.
• 14. Anticipated change of residency or travel for more than 14 days at a time during the study that may, per investigator judgment, interfere with the completion of study visits, contacts, or procedures.
• 15. Feasibility Phase only: Clarke Hypoglycemia Awareness Survey score of 4 or greater.
