About this trial

This is an interventional basic science trial for Type1diabetes

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 30 Years (Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Age 18 - 30 (inclusive)
  2. Clinical diagnosis of T1D of at least one year's duration
  3. On Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion (CSII) therapy for at least three months
  4. HbA1c <10%
  5. Minimum weight requirement of at least 37.9 kg
  6. Ability to comprehend written and spoken English
  7. Total daily requirement of insulin between 0.6 and1.2 U/kg/day
  8. Not have any other medical condition or disease known to affect insulin action and glucose control aside from T1D or treated hypothyroidism

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Medication besides insulin known to alter blood glucose or insulin action
  2. Female subjects of reproductive potential that are pregnant or breast feeding, or not consistently using a barrier method or abstinence as contraception.
  3. Inability to comprehend written and spoken English
  4. Any other condition, which in the judgment of the investigators, would interfere with the subject's ability to provide informed consent or the investigator's ability to perform the study
  5. Hematocrit less than 35% or a serum potassium less than 3.4 mmol/L

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

time to reach 25% maximum insulin levels
RAI absorption time to reach 25% maximum insulin levels

Secondary Outcome Measures

Earlier clearance of exogenous insulin.
Examine if an alteration in speed of insulin delivery translates into a time to peak glucose infusion rate (amount of glucose given via dextrose infusion) to maintain euglycemia (80-120 mg/dl). The investigators will obtain a blood glucose every 5 minutes and adjust the dextrose infusion to maintain a blood glucose at around 90 - 100 mg/dL (normal blood glucose). So the goal will not be to lower blood glucose, but to deliver an amount of insulin at a normal blood glucose and then provide intravenous glucose at variable rates and determine how much glucose was needed to keep blood sugar steady.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Rapid Action Insulin (RAI) absorption and action measured by time to reach maximum insulin concentration and glucose infusion rate.
Detailed Description
The investigators hypothesize that RAI absorption and action measured by time to reach maximum insulin concentration and glucose infusion rate during the clamp study will be significantly faster when insulin bolus is delivered using the "Quick Bolus" feature as compared to the "Standard Bolus".
