Summary

This trial is testing if an automated insulin delivery system and ultra-rapid insulin can simplify carb counting for people with type 1 diabetes.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people who have had type 1 diabetes for at least a year, use an insulin pump, and are willing to switch to Lyumjev insulin. They must be able to follow one of three meal strategies and agree to use effective birth control if they can have children.
What is being tested?
The study compares three ways of managing meals with type 1 diabetes using an 'artificial pancreas' system and ultra-rapid insulin (Lyumjev). Participants will try counting carbs, estimating meal size qualitatively, or having the system detect their meals over three weeks each.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include those typically associated with insulin therapy such as low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia), allergic reactions at the injection site, weight gain, swelling in arms or legs, and possible malfunctioning of the delivery device.
