Recent advances in insulin pumps, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices, and control algorithms have resulted in an acceleration of progress in the development of the automated systems of insulin delivery including hybrid closed loop (HCL) systems. Initial studies on the MiniMed 670G system, the first HCL system approved, have reported increased glycemic control in both adults and pediatrics, having experience with insulin pump therapy with or without experience of CGM technology. More recently it was shown shown even further improvement in glycemic control with the 670G system, in children and adolescents naïve to both pump and CGM technologies. This may be, at least partially, due to lack of willingness of patients to "let the algorithm work" based on their previous experience with CSII and CGM. The investigators aim to evaluate the impact of an Advanced Hybrid Closed Loop (AHCL) system in adults naïve to pump and CGM technology. For this purpose the investigators target the population of T1DM individuals who are older than 26 years. The study will be conducted in Poland, where only individuals under the age of 26 are entitled to CSII/CGM reimbursement. If the study succeeds in terms of improved glycemic patterns, quality of life and patients' acceptance, it may provide evidence for consideration in CSII/CGM reimbursement for this population. Devices usage in the study: Envision Pro device (CE-marked) will be used to collect CGM data in a retrospective manner. Envision Pro records up to 6 days of data. Patients will wear 2 consecutive Envision Pro devices both during the run-in phase and the at the end of the study phase, i.e. up to 12 days of data. The first Envision Pro device will be placed in the hospital and the second Envision Pro device will be placed by the patient at home, assisted by the study staff on the phone. In addition, patients from the AHCL group will use the MiniMed 780G AHCL system (CE-marked). The AHCL system will be initiated first in Manual Mode (i.e. without AHCL control) with suspend before low feature. In short, the protocol inputs the current insulin program (MDI) and calculates a 10-20% reduction in total daily dose, with a 40/60 basal/bolus distribution in four or five basal rates. Insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio (ICR) settings utilize the formula of 300-450/total daily dose (TDD) and the formula of 90-110/TDD (mmol/L) with two CF settings; the nighttime CF factor is set 10-20% higher than the daytime CF. Active insulin is set time (3 h); suspend before low feature is turned on with a threshold of 3.0-3.8 mmol/L (55-70 mg/dL), and glucose target ranges from 5.0 to 7.2 mmol/L (90-130 mg/dL. The AHCL system will be initiated in Auto Mode (i.e. with AHCL control) at Visit 2.At each visit, the AHCL system data will be downloaded and reviewed by the physician. The patient interaction with the system will be evaluated, included sensor calibration, bolus management (before the meals and for corrections as needed), alarms and Auto Mode exits. At each visit, the glycemic control will be reviewed, and system settings re-assessed and adjusted as needed, including ICR, AIT and basal rates in Manual Mode. The trial is a two-centers, randomized controlled, parallel group study. Patients will be followed up during approximatively 3 months. Study phase Both groups will have a similar number of visits in order to minimize bias. However, the AHCL group will have 2 additional visits to allow for patients to be trained on the AHCL system. MDI group: The patient continues MDI treatment as per routine procedures Visit 1 (day 0, can be combined with the randomization visit): BG meter data download, data review and optimization of MDI management. Visit 2 (Visit 1 + 14 days, window +/- 3 days): BG meter data download, data review and optimization of MDI management Visit 3 (Visit 2 + 14 days, window +/- 3 days): BG meter data download, data review and optimization of MDI management Visit 4 (Visit 3 + 28 days, window +/- 7 days): BG meter data download, data review and optimization of MDI management Visit 5 Visit 4 + 22 days, window +/- 7 days): BG meter data download, data review and optimization of MDI management, first professional CGM evaluation start. Visit 6 (Visit 5 + 6 days, window +3 days) - phone call: second professional CGM evaluation start. Visit 7 (Visit 9 + 6 days, window + 3 days): QoL questionnaire, blood sample for HbA1c lab test. Professional CGM evaluation will be repeated for 6 days in cased less than 10 days data is available. Study conclusion. AHCL group: Visit 1 (day 0, can be combined with the randomization visit): the patient will get the pre-reading materials on the 780G system, to be read before Visit 2. CGM training and initiation.
