Abstract:
Real-world data from the first 3141 patients who completed 3 months of SmartGuard™ Auto Mode-enabled MiniMed™ 670G system use during the MiniMed 670G System Commercial Launch are reported. CareLink™ system data uploaded by real-world patients in the Commercial Launch from March 17, 2017 to December 31, 2017 were deidentified and analyzed. Comparisons of overall and night (10:00 PM-07:00 AM) time spent below, within, and above target glucose range (TIR) (70-180 mg/dL) between the baseline Manual Mode and closed-loop Auto Mode periods were made. These were evaluated alongside data from the 124 patients (aged 14-75 years) who completed the 3-month MiniMed 670G system pivotal trial (NCT 2463097), from June 2, 2015 to March 7, 2016. Real-world patients used Auto Mode a median 80.8% of the time (19 h and 24 min of the day). The overall mean of time spent in TIR was 66.0% during baseline Manual Mode versus 73.3% during Auto Mode (P < 0.001); the mean percentage of sensor glucose values <70 mg/dL was 2.7% versus 2.1% (P < 0.001); and that >180 mg/dL was 31.4% versus 24.6% (P < 0.001). The nighttime and early morning (03:00 AM-06:00 AM) TIR during Auto Mode was greater than that during baseline Manual Mode (nighttime: 77.2% vs. 67.4% [P < 0.001], early morning: 70.9% vs. 84.6% [P < 0.001]). Similar differences between Manual Mode and Auto Mode TIR were observed across different age groups. A slight increase in total insulin delivered was also observed. Consistent with improved glycemic control demonstrated in the pivotal trial, analysis of CareLink system data from >3000 real-world patients who completed 3 months of Auto Mode-enabled MiniMed 670G system use demonstrated increased TIR and decreased time below and above TIR compared with baseline. These improved clinical outcomes were observed across a broad age range of patients with type 1 diabetes.
