Two-Year Real-Life Achievements of MiniMed 780G Advanced Closed-Loop System in Youth With Type 1 Diabetes: AWeSoMe Study Group Multicenter Prospective Extended Follow-Up

Endocr PractPublished Prospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

The 780G Advanced Hybrid Closed-Loop system sustained meaningful glycemic benefits over 2 years, yet most youth failed to achieve optimal composite glycemic control.

Study context

Population
Children and adolescents with T1D using the MiniMed 780G system
Participants
96 children
Outcome
Glycemic outcomes 12 to 24 months
Follow-up
12 to 24 months
Methodological detailsmulticenter, real-life, extended follow-up, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and clinical data at 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 months; repeated-measures linear mixed models
  • Multicenter
  • Real-life
  • Extended follow-up
  • CGM and clinical data at 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 months; repeated-measures linear mixed models

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

Time below range increased (P = .015)

1.8-2.5%

Observational data: associations, not effects.

Further findings

Composite targets met

CGC
14.6%
Best GRI
9.4%
Best COGI
10.4%

SmartGuard use

SmartGuard use declined from 91.3% to 82.7% (P = .013)
Lower socioeconomic position and lower 12-month SmartGuard use were independently associated with the decline

Sex differences

Girls had lower glycemic variability than boys and greater BMI z-score increase

Safety

DKA events
5
Severe hypoglycemia events
2
All events device- or behavior-related
