Temporary Target Versus Suspended Insulin Infusion in Patients with Type 1 Diabetes Using the MiniMed 780G Advanced Closed-Loop Hybrid System During Aerobic Exercise: A Randomized Crossover Clinical Trial

Diabetes Technol TherPublished Randomised crossover clinical trial

Authors' conclusion

Our data appear to show that the use of TT compared with SII is equally safe in all phases of AE. However, the use of TT allows for a better glycemic profile in the early phase of exercise.

Study context

Population
Adults with T1D using advanced hybrid closed-loop systems (MiniMed 780G), two moderate-intensity aerobic exercise sessions; age 44.6 ± 13.8 years; basal TIR 79.4 ± 12%analysed
Participants
33 adults
Comparison
Temporary target (TT) vs suspension of insulin infusion (SII) during aerobic exercise
Primary endpoint
Safety: hypoglycemic events and CGM metrics during aerobic exercise
Follow-up
Immediate (baseline to 59 min), early (60 min to 6 h) and late (6 to 36 h) post-exercise phases

Primary result

As reported in the abstract

Hypoglycemic events, %TBR <70 mg/dL and %TBR <54 mg/dL
  • No difference in number of hypoglycemic events, %TBR <70 mg/dL and %TBR <54 mg/dL between TT and SII

Further findings

%TIR 70-180 mg/dL, early phase · early phase (60 min to 6 h) · better with TT

P = 0.005

%TITR 70-140 mg/dL, early phase · early phase (60 min to 6 h) · better with TT

P = 0.04

%TAR >180 mg/dL, early phase · early phase (60 min to 6 h) · better with TT

P = 0.01

%TIR, diurnal period · better with TT

P = 0.02

%TAR, diurnal period · better with TT

P = 0.04

Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) metrics during phases of aerobic exercise

No significant differences in CGM metrics during the different phases of aerobic exercise (AE)

Safety

No difference in number of hypoglycemic events between TT and SII
