Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (≥18 years) with type 1 diabetes for at least one year who can give informed consent and are willing to use the TouchCare Nano system.
✕Probably not a fit
People who are pregnant or breastfeeding, those taking medications that affect carbohydrate metabolism, or individuals with severe noncompliance are unlikely to be eligible or to benefit.

What this trial studies
The RENEW study is a prospective interventional trial of the Medtrum TouchCare Nano patch pump running the APGO automated insulin delivery algorithm in real-world conditions. Adults with type 1 diabetes for at least one year who are 18 or older and able to give informed consent will use the device while researchers record glucose metrics, insulin delivery data, and adverse events. Key exclusions include pregnancy or lactation, severe noncompliance, and use of medications that affect carbohydrate metabolism. The study is conducted at the 3rd Department of Internal Medicine, 1st Faculty of Medicine, Charles University in Prague to provide practical safety and effectiveness data for this patch-pump AID system.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the APGO-powered patch pump could provide safer, more stable glucose control and simpler insulin delivery for adults with type 1 diabetes.
How similar studies have gone: Automated insulin delivery systems in general have shown improved time-in-range and reduced hypoglycemia in trials, but prospective real-world evidence specifically for the APGO algorithm on a patch pump is limited.
