Dual-hormone systems show promise to reduce hypoglycemia, but require a stable liquid glucagon formulation. XeriSol™ glucagon is a shelf-stable glucagon product for this use. Nineteen subjects with T1D are completing a single-center three-day outpatient study comparing control modes of the Oregon Artificial Pancreas system: 1) dual hormone (DH) closed-loop with Novolog™ insulin and XeriSol™ glucagon, 2) insulin-only single hormone (SH) closed-loop, 3) insulin-only predictive low glucose suspend system (PLGS). In clinic aerobic exercise (45 minutes at 60% VO2max) and home exercise was completed with each arm. SH and DH used automated exercise detection to adaptively dose insulin/glucagon for predicted hypoglycemia and tailored mealtime dosing based on past meal responses with an adaptive algorithm. An interim analysis after 7 subjects was completed for safety. The primary outcome measures are % time 70-180 mg/dL and % time <70 mg/dL for the 3-day study and the 4-hour period from start of exercise until the next meal. From start of exercise until the next meal, DH showed a clinically meaningful reduction of time in hypoglycemia compared with PLGS and SH. For the entire study, DH showed a clinically meaningful lower time <70mg/dL. No serious events or unexpected side effects occurred.
