    Insulin infusion sets will be used for up to 7 days or until failure

  • YpsoPump Orbit microDevice

    Insulin infusion sets will be used for up to 7 days or until failure

Study groups in NCT03683368
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Soft cannula firstExperimentalSubjects will be randomized (50%) to the soft cannula infusion set for two weeks and then will be switched to the steel needle infusion set for two additional weeks. Participants will aim for 7 day use of each infusion set type twice, starting with the soft cannula infusion set.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Time to infusion set failure due to an occlusion

    an occlusion is defined by blood ketone concentration is > or = 0.6 mmol/l with blood glucose (BG) concentration >250 mg/dl, or BG concentration is >250 mg/dl for more than 2 h and a subsequent correction bolus failed, or pump occlusion alarm that cannot be fixed.

    Measured: up to 7 days

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Frequency of early infusion set changes

    Measured: up to 7 days

  2. Time to early infusion set changes

    Measured: up to 7 days

  3. Frequency of early infusion set changes due to infusion site infection

    Measured: up to 7 days

  4. Median infusion set wearing time

    Measured: up to 7 days

  5. Daily mean glucose

    Based on Continuous Glucose Monitoring

    Measured: day 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

  6. Daily mean glucose

    Based on self measured blood glucose

    Measured: day 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

  7. Total daily insulin dose

    Measured: day 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

  8. Glucose variability

    Coefficient of variation

    Measured: day 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing YpsoPump Orbit soft and YpsoPump Orbit micro in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1, run by mylife Diabetes Care AG at 1 site in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time to infusion set failure due to an occlusion (time frame: up to 7 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Mar 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
