Abstract

The MiniMed™ 670G (670 HCL) is the first FDA-approved hybrid closed-loop insulin delivery system device for patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D). This study aimed at evaluating clinical and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in patients with T1D utilizing this technology. We evaluated 54 patients with T1D using the 670 HCL in real-world clinical practice (mean age 47.9±13.2 years, 57% females, BMI 28.8±5.9 kg/m2). Data were collected at baseline and after 3 months. Measures of PROs included: Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Hypoglycemia Fear Survey Worry (HFS_W) scale, and 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36). We also measured changes in A1C after 3 months and % of time in auto-mode (% TIAM) over the two weeks preceding the 3-month visit. Regression analyses were done between these 2 parameters and PROs. Other glycemic and quality-of-life parameters were collected at 3 months and at one year but are not included in this early report. At 3 months, A1C decreased by 0.4±0.12% from baseline (p=0.0027). Average % TIAM was 63.9±33.1%. Among all surveyed PROs, only fear of hypoglycemia and social functioning improved compared to baseline (p<0.05 for both). There was no association between changes in PROs and reduction in A1C or % TIAM. In conclusion, patients with T1D using the MiniMed™ 670G hybrid closed-loop system in real-world clinical practice are able to improve their A1C, fear of hypoglycemia, and social functioning but not other PROs included in the SF-36 after 3 months of use. The limited improvement in some of the PROs is not associated with the reduction in A1C or % TIAM. Disclosure A.H. Eldib: None. E. Toschi: Advisory Panel; Self; Lexicon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. N.
