DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Type 1 diabetes is a condition caused by destruction of the pancreas' ability to produce insulin. This results in lifelong insulin requirement. This condition is treated with insulin injections or by a pump that pumps insulin continuously through a small plastic tube that sits under the skin. Currently, insulin doses need to be worked out by the patient depending on their finger-stick blood glucose level and the sugar content in their food. The development of an artificial pancreas that can manage all of this automatically by measuring glucose levels and working out how much insulin to give, would greatly change the treatment of diabetes. The aim of this study is to further develop an artificial pancreas system which we have developed and studied in a small group of patients. Our initial results were encouraging and we were able to control glucose levels within an acceptable level during the day and night. Our system will consist of an insulin pump, glucose sensor and smartphone with a calculator, which determines how much insulin to give by a special formula. Through this study, we hope to make the system better by adding an accelerometer that can measure how active a patient is. The system can then change insulin delivery depending on activity levels. It will also be able to tell when you are sleeping and adjust insulin for this. Our system will be designed so that the patient does not have to tell us about meals or exercise. This is a true, automatic, artificial pancreas for both day and night time. We will incorporate special formulas and information that we know already about, such as timing of meals and exercise, to improve the performance of the system. In this study, we will initially test the system in a group of 20 patients in hospital with type 1 diabetes to see how well the system can work in managing glucose levels. We will use the results to make further improvements to our system. When the system is working well, we will continue testing the system in another group of 20 patients over 4 days in a hotel setting with remote monitoring. Towards the end of this program, we will test the system in a group of 12 patients using the system at home for 2 weeks with remote monitoring.

描述（由申请人提供）：1型糖尿病是一种由胰腺产生胰岛素的能力破坏引起的疾病。这导致终身胰岛素需求。这种情况可以通过注射胰岛素或通过一个泵来治疗，该泵通过位于皮肤下的一个小塑料管连续泵送胰岛素。目前，胰岛素剂量需要由患者根据其手指针刺血糖水平和食物中的糖含量来确定。人工胰腺的发展，可以通过测量葡萄糖水平和计算出多少胰岛素来自动管理所有这些，这将大大改变糖尿病的治疗。 本研究的目的是进一步开发一种人工胰腺系统，我们已经开发和研究了一小群患者。我们的初步结果令人鼓舞，我们能够在白天和晚上将血糖水平控制在可接受的水平。我们的系统将包括一个胰岛素泵，葡萄糖传感器和智能手机与计算器，它决定了多少胰岛素给一个特殊的公式。通过这项研究，我们希望通过增加一个可以测量患者活动程度的加速度计来使系统更好。然后，系统可以根据活动水平改变胰岛素输注。它还可以告诉你什么时候睡觉，并为此调整胰岛素。 我们的系统将被设计成病人不必告诉我们饮食或锻炼的情况。这是一个真正的，自动的，人造胰腺，白天和晚上都可以使用。我们将纳入我们已经知道的特殊配方和信息，例如进餐和运动的时间，以提高系统的性能。 在这项研究中，我们将首先在一组20名1型糖尿病住院患者中测试该系统，以了解该系统在管理血糖水平方面的效果。我们将使用这些结果来进一步改进我们的系统。当该系统运行良好时，我们将在酒店环境中通过远程监控在另一组20名患者中继续测试该系统4天。在该项目结束时，我们将在一组12名患者中测试该系统，这些患者在家中使用该系统进行2周的远程监测。
