Brief Summary:

This is a proof of concept safety study of an artificial intelligence based closed loop glucose control system designed for use in the intensive care unit setting.

The type 2 diabetic subjects in this study will have their glucose controlled to a range of 100-140 mg/dL by a novel artificial intelligence based closed loop glucose control system for a period of 24 hours. The subjects will consume three standardized meals during the 24 hour study period.


Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 Device: FUSION closed loop glucose control system Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

Tight glucose control in the intensive care unit (ICU) setting is difficult to achieve. The investigators hypothesize that a closed loop glucose control system based on artificial intelligence (AI) will improve upon the glucose control currently achieved by the current open loop manual methods, and that this improved glucose control may improve the outcomes of critically ill patients, including those with COVID-19.

This Earl Feasibility Study will test the ability of a prototype artificial intelligence based closed loop glucose control system named FUSION, to provide safe and effective glucose control in subjects with type 2 diabetes in a clinical research center (CRC) setting. Subjects with type 2 diabetes have been chosen as they are insulin resistant, which makes their insulin resistance profile similar to that of ICU patients. As this is the first in human study of a new medical device, the controlled environment of the CRC is preferable to the less controlled environment of an ICU setting.

The prototype FUSION system to be used in this study will consist to two Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitors (CGM), the AI-based glucose control software run on an all-in-one medical computer, and two syringe pumps. The prototype system is housed on a medical cart. Based on the average glucose value of the two Dexcom G6 CGM's, and the rules of the FUSION systems AI-based glucose control software, the FUSION system will make rate adjustments every 5-10 minutes to the intravenous infusion rates of short acting insulin (NovoLog) and dextrose (D10NS) under its control, in an attempt to keep the subjects glucose in the range of 100-140 mg/dL. The FUSION system only requires entry of the subjects study identification number and weight in kilograms to initiate the system.

For safety reasons, the subjects will have their blood glucose independently measured every 10-60 minutes on a YSI 2900 glucose analyzer and the point of care Nova StatStrip system, throughout the 24 hour study period.

The study has halting criteria to avoid recurrent instances of severe hypoglycemia (< 54 mg/dL).

The average of the two CGM's, that is used by the FUSION system for glucose control, will be used for statistical analysis. In addition, both the average glucose value used by the FUSION system and each individual CGM system will be compared to the YSI glucose analyzer for correlation between systems using the Surveillance Error grid.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Primary Safety Outcome [ Time Frame: From beginning of use of the FUSION system to end of use of the FUSION system, which will be a period of time of up to 24 hours ]
    The primary safety outcome will be the percent of all glucose values that are within the glucose range of less than 70 mg/dL.

  2. Primary Efficacy Outcome [ Time Frame: From beginning of use of the FUSION system to end of use of the FUSION system, which will be a period of time of up to 24 hours ]
    The primary efficacy outcome will be the percent of all glucose values that are within the glucose range of 70-180 mg/dL.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Severe hypoglycemia [ Time Frame: From beginning of use of the FUSION system to end of use of the FUSION system, which will be a period of time of up to 24 hours ]
    Measure the percent of all glucose values that are less than 54 mg/dL.

  2. Hyperglycemia [ Time Frame: From beginning of use of the FUSION system to end of use of the FUSION system, which will be a period of time of up to 24 hours ]
    Measure the percent of all glucose values that are greater than 180 mg/dL.

  3. Glucose dispersion [ Time Frame: From beginning of use of the FUSION system to end of use of the FUSION system, which will be a period of time of up to 24 hours ]
    Measure the degree of glucose dispersion by determining the coefficient of variation.

  4. Time in desired control range [ Time Frame: From beginning of use of the FUSION system to end of use of the FUSION system, which will be a period of time of up to 24 hours ]
    Measure the percent of all glucose values that are within the desired control range of 100-140 mg/dL.


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. Average glucose value used by FUSION system versus from blood [ Time Frame: From beginning of use of the FUSION system to end of use of the FUSION system, which will be a period of time of up to 24 hours ]
    The average glucose value used by the FUSION system in mg/dL will be compared with blood glucose in mg/dL from an arterialized hand vein. The arterialized hand vein measurement will occur every 10-60 minutes throughout the closed loop session.

  2. Glucose readings from CGM's versus from blood [ Time Frame: From beginning of use of the FUSION system to end of use of the FUSION system, which will be a period of time of up to 24 hours ]
    Glucose readings in mg/dL from the Dexcom G6 CGM's will be compared with blood glucose in mg/dL from an arterialized hand vein. The arterialized hand vein measurement will occur every 10-60 minutes throughout the closed loop session.
