825-P: Composite Glucose and C-Peptide Endpoints Show Early Efficacy in Recent-Onset Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) Clinical Trials

Abstract

C-peptide area under the curve (AUC) at ≥1 year, a standard endpoint of recent-onset T1D clinical trials, is derived from a 120-minute mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT) . We analyzed whether composite glucose and C-peptide endpoints, useful in post hoc analyses of prevention trials, could detect treatment effects as early as 3 months between the combined treated and placebo groups from 3 TrialNet recent-onset T1D trials that met their primary endpoint. Comparisons were made between treated and placebo groups after adjustments for age, sex, and BMI Z-score using AUC C-peptide (standard measure) , AUC C-peptide/AUC glucose (AUC ratio) , and a new measure, the centroid ratio. Centroids, geometric central points of shapes, were derived from MMTT shapes formed from mean glucose and C-peptide values at 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes. The centroid ratio is the C-peptide coordinate/glucose coordinate of the centroid. A treatment effect at 3 months was evident for centroid and AUC ratios (p<0.0 and p=0.002, respectively) and not AUC C-peptide (p=0.056) . Similar results were seen when individual trials were compared. The difference between combined groups at 3, 6, and 12 months is demonstrated by vectors that start at baseline (Figure) . In conclusion, composite glucose and C-peptide endpoints appear to identify early treatment efficacy and should be considered in future new-onset pilot studies and trials.
