About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus focused on measuring hyaluronidase, infusion sets, insulin pump, Continuous glucose monitor

Eligibility Criteria

12 Years - 45 Years (Child, Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Clinical diagnosis of type 1 diabetes for at least one year and using an insulin pump for at least 3 months
  2. Total daily insulin dose of at least 0.4 units/kg/day
  3. The diagnosis of type 1 diabetes is based on the investigator's judgment; C peptide level and antibody determinations are not needed.
  4. Age 12 to 45 years
  5. Hemoglobin A1c level less than or equal to 10%
  6. Willingness to infuse 1 ml of hyaluronidase (Hylenex) into the insulin infusion set after insertion on day 1 and day 3 of the week they are assigned to use hyaluronidase
  7. Willingness to use a Silhouette or Comfort insulin infusion set throughout the study. The set includes the Duo Infusion Tubing for infusion of hyaluronidase (Hylenex).
  8. Willingness to eat the same breakfast each morning for the first two weeks of the study

  4. Current treatment for a seizure disorder
  5. Cystic fibrosis
  6. Active infection

  8. Inpatient psychiatric treatment in the past 6 months for either the subject or the subject's primary care giver (i.e., parent or guardian)

Arm Description

Participants assigned to active treatment arm (Hylenex) for weeks 1 and 3. On weeks 1 and 3 (Hyaluronidase weeks) subjects injected 1 milliliter (ml) Hyaluronidase (150 units/ml) into the catheter hub prior to connecting the insulin infusion set on Day 1 and 3 of infusion set wear. On weeks 2 and 4 (control weeks) no Hyaluronidase was administered.

Participants were first assigned to the control arm. They received active treatment (Hyaluronidase) on weeks 2 and 4. On weeks 1 and 3 (control weeks) no Hyaluronidase was administered. On weeks 2 and 4 (Hyaluronidase weeks) subjects injected 1 milliliter (ml) Hyluronidase (150 units/ml) into the catheter hub prior to connecting the insulin infusion set on Day 1 and 3 of infusion set wear.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Duration of Insulin Infusion Set Wear as a Measure of the Effect of Hyaluronidase Treatment
Average (mean) days of wear are presented for each group. A longer period of wear was considered a better outcome.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Maximum Glycemic Excursion
The effects of hyaluronidase on post-prandial glucodymamic parameters is presented as the estimated glycemic excursion, a composite value which was calculated based on peak glucose concentration (Cmax), time to Cmax (Tmax), time to early half-maximal glucose concentration (t50%), time to late t50%, and area under the curve (AUC) of glucose concentrations at time intervals of 120 and 240 minutes, with or without hyaluronidase. Estimated glycemic excursion for a patient with Type 1 diabetes that is less than 80 mg/dL is considered acceptable.
Pain Tolerability of Hyaluronidase Injections
Patients recorded pain experience at the infusion site (at time of injection and pain each day of wear) in subject diaries on a 0-5 pain scale (0 = no pain and 5 = worst pain imaginable). The number of diary entries are presented by scale category.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This research study examines the effect of hyaluronidase on the length of time of insulin infusion set wear. The aim of the study is to improve the length of time that an infusion set can be worn by infusing hyaluronidase directly into the insulin infusion site.
Detailed Description
The investigators would like to see if the use of hyaluronidase will improve insulin infusion set survival and improve the onset of insulin action. The investigators will also assess the accuracy of the Dexcom G4P sensors with extended site use beyond the 7 day FDA approved time frame. The use of sensor information combined with the knowledge of infused insulin from pump therapy could potentially help us detect when an infusion set is beginning to fail. Information from the sensor function to the point of failure, and sensor function in response to Tylenol may allow us to develop special formulas to determine when a sensor is not working well. This will be very important for creating an artificial pancreas. Thirty subjects will be enrolled. Fifteen patients from each of the two sites: Stanford University and University of Colorado.
