Glucose metrics were derived from continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). Generalized estimating equations were used to assess the relationship between SD and MG, considering intraindividual correlations. Nonlinear associations were evaluated using restricted cubic splines, and glucose values outside the CGM detection range (<2.22 mmol/L and >22.2 mmol/L) were handled using a censored Gamma model. <b><i>Results:</i></b> In total, 158 individuals with an MG of 10.6 (SD 1.7) mmol/L were included. The SD of glucose values exhibited a nonlinear relationship with the MG during CGM and self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) (both <i>P</i> < 0.001 vs. linear model). The lack of fit of the constant CV model was most distinct at high glucose levels >12 mmol/L.

Similar associations were observed during CGM. This deviation was attributed to the censoring of glucose values outside the detection range. After adjusting for censoring, the lack of fit was resolved. When transitioning from SMBG to CGM, the ordinary CV and SD underestimated the treatment effect on GV by 30% and 27%, respectively, compared to estimates adjusted for censoring. Similarly, ordinary CV underestimated the treatment effect by 11% compared with CV adjusted for the nonlinear SD-MG relationship in the GOLD study. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> The SD of glucose values does not increase linearly with the MG during glucose-lowering therapy, suggesting that CV is not an optimal measure of GV.

Participants were provided with an intermittently scanned CGM device, and icodec doses were titrated weekly based on pre-breakfast CGM values (target: 80-130 mg/dL). The primary endpoint was change in HbA1c from week 0 to week 26. Exploratory endpoints included the percentage of time in range (TIR; 70-180 mg/dL), time above range (TAR; >180 mg/dL), and time below range (TBR; <54 mg/dL) from week 22 to week 26. Safety outcomes, including the number of hypoglycemia episodes, were assessed. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Of 58 participants screened, 51 received icodec treatment. HbA1c decreased from an observed mean of 8.18% at week 0 to an estimated mean of 7.00% at week 26. There was a statistically significant reduction in HbA1c of -1.17%-points (95% confidence interval: -1.36; -0.99, <i>P</i> < 0.0001). From week -2 to 0 to week 22-26, a concomitant clinically meaningful increase in TIR (54.4% to 76.4%) and decrease in TAR (45.2% to 22.9%) was observed; TBR remained low throughout the trial (week -2 to 0: 0.03%; week 22-26: 0.04%). No severe hypoglycemic episodes were reported during the trial, and no new safety concerns for icodec were identified. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> After 26 weeks of treatment with icodec titrated based on CGM data, there was a statistically significant reduction in HbA1c from baseline, and the internationally recommended CGM targets for TIR, TAR >180 mg/dL, and TBR <54 mg/dL were achieved. These findings suggest that CGM-based titration of icodec is a feasible method for initiating insulin therapy in T2D. <b><i>Trial registration:</i></b> ClinicalTrials.gov identifiers: NCT05823948.</p>","PeriodicalId":11159,"journal":{"name":"Diabetes technology & therapeutics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143556095","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
