- Abstract
Context: We propose an artificial-pancreas-like algorithm (AP-A) that could automatically determine the preprandial insulin dose based on intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring (isCGM) data trajectories in multiple dose injection (MDI) therapy., Objective: We aim to determine whether preprandial insulin dose adjustments guided by the AP-A are as effective and safe as physician decisions., Methods: We performed a randomized, single-blind, clinical trial at a tertiary, referral hospital in Beijing, China. Type 2 diabetes participants were eligible if they were aged 18 years or older, with a glycated hemoglobin A1c of 8.0% or higher. Eligible participants were randomly assigned (1:1) to the AP-A arm supervised by physician and the conventional physician treatment arm. The primary objective was to compare percentage time spent with sensor glucose level in 3.9 to 10.0 mmol/L (TIR) between the 2 study arms. Safety was assessed by the percentage time spent with sensor glucose level below 3.0 mmol/L (TBR)., Results: A total of 140 participants were screened, of whom 119 were randomly assigned to the AP-A arm (n = 59) or physician arm (n = 60). The TIR achieved by the AP-A arm was statistically noninferior compared with the control arm (72.4% [63.3%-82.1%] vs 71.2% [54.9%-81.4%]), with a median difference of 1.33% (95% CI, -6.00 to 10.94, noninferiority margin -7.5%). TBR was also statistically noninferior between the AP-A and control arms (0.0% [0.0%-0.0%] vs 0.0% [0.0%-0.0%]), respectively; median difference (95% CI, 0.00% [0.00%-0.00%], noninferiority margin 2.0%)., Conclusion: The AP-A-supported physician titration of preprandial insulin dosage offers noninferior glycemic control compared with optimal physician care in type 2 diabetes., (© The Author(s) 2024.
