Personal tool to help manage blood sugar during exercise in type 1 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
If you have type 1 diabetes, this study tests a personalized tool that gives you advice on managing your blood sugar during and after exercise. If you are a healthy volunteer, you might join to provide a comparison group. The study involves moderate walking sessions while wearing a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) and using a special app.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 60 years old
- You must be able to walk at a moderate pace for 60 minutes
- If you have type 1 diabetes: you need to be diagnosed for over a year, use a Tandem Control-IQ insulin pump with a compatible continuous glucose monitor (CGM) for at least a month, and have used your CGM at least 80% of the time in the past month
- If you are a healthy volunteer: you must not have diabetes or any blood sugar problems, and not take insulin or blood sugar-lowering medications
- You must not have serious heart or kidney conditions, and not be pregnant or breastfeeding

This study tests an app called PACTAID that helps adults with type 1 diabetes manage their blood sugar during exercise. You will try three different types of workouts to see how well the app works.
This trial tests a new continuous glucose monitor (a small sensor that checks blood sugar levels) to see how well and safely it works in people with type 1 diabetes. You'll wear the sensor for 15 days and attend three clinic visits to check its accuracy against blood samples.
This study observes how well the Control-IQ insulin pump system works for teenagers with type 1 diabetes who exercise at least twice a week. It aims to see if the technology is safe and effective during regular physical activity.
This study tests a new wearable sensor to see if it can help people with type 1 diabetes better track their blood sugar levels. It might lead to easier and more accurate glucose monitoring.
This study compares two types of exercise—short, intense bursts versus longer, moderate workouts—to see which better manages blood sugar in people without diabetes or with prediabetes. You'll wear a continuous glucose monitor for 11 days while doing the exercises.
This study tests how exercising in hot conditions affects blood sugar levels in people with type 1 diabetes. It aims to help you understand how to manage your glucose when it's warm.
