Type 1 diabetes

Comparison of Insulin Glargine 300 U/mL and Insulin Degludec 100 U/mL Around Spontaneous Exercise Sessions in Adults with Type 1 Diabetes: A Randomized Cross-Over Trial (ULTRAFLEXI-1 Study)

Diabetes Technol TherPublished Randomised controlled trial

Authors' conclusion

TBR<70 within the first 24 h after spontaneous exercise sessions was significantly lower when receiving IGlar U300 compared to IDeg U100 when a regular basal dose was administered.

Study context

Population
Adults with T1D performing six spontaneous 60 min moderate-intensity evening cycle ergometer exercise sessions per 2-week period; mean age 41.4 ± 11.9 years, HbA1c 7.5% ± 0.8%14 males
Participants
25 adults
Comparison
IGlar U300 vs IDeg U100 at 100% and 75% of regular dose on exercise days
Primary endpoint
TBR<70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L) during the 24 h postexercise periods, analysed in hierarchical order by repeated measures linear mixed model
Follow-up

Primary result

As reported in the abstract

TBR<70

IGlar U300 (100%) vs IDeg U100 (100%): P = 0.023 · IGlar U300 (75%) vs IDeg U100 (75%): P = 0.720

Further findings

Time in range 70-180 highest with IDeg U100 (100%)
