TL;DR

MiniMed™ 780G markedly improves glycemic control in people with LADA, supporting AHCLS as an effective therapeutic strategy in this population of insulin-treated patients with latent autoimmune diabetes in adults.

Abstract

Aims

To evaluate the effectiveness of the Medtronic MiniMed™ 780G Automated Hybrid Closed Loop System (AHCLS) in insulin-treated patients with latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA).

Methods

Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data and clinical records were collected from individuals with LADA using the MiniMed™ 780G. Participants were BMI-matched with individuals with LADA treated with multiple daily injections (MDI) + CGM and with people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) using either AHCLS or MDI + CGM. Multivariable regression models adjusted for age, sex, and diabetes duration were used to assess the effect of AHCLS on CGM metrics. Differences in treatment effect between LADA and T1D were evaluated through an interaction analysis.

Results

AHCLS users showed higher time in range (TIR) than people on MDI (80 [71-87]% vs. 62 [50-75]%, p < 0.001) with no significant differences in the effect of AHCLS on TIR between people with LADA and T1D (p-interaction = 0.53). The percentages of patients meeting all CGM targets were 22.2% and 14.3% among people with LADA and T1D treated with MDI, and 54.4% and 77.8%, among those using AHCLS (p-value < 0.001; p-interaction = 0.39).

Conclusions

MiniMed™ 780G markedly improves glycemic control in people with LADA, supporting AHCLS as an effective therapeutic strategy in this population.

Observational study of the relationship between the use of real-time continuous glucose monitoring and glycemic control in patients with diabetes in Japan: the REALJ study.

Although randomized controlled trials have demonstrated the efficacy of real-time continuous glucose monitoring (rtCGM), evidence from routine clinical practice remains limited, particularly in Asian populations. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of rtCGM initiation in individuals with diabetes....

Continuous Glucose Monitoring Reduces Severe Diabetes Distress Independently of Glycemic Improvement in Adults With Type 1 Diabetes: A Prospective Study in a Public Healthcare Setting.

OBJECTIVES While technology improves glycemic control, its psychological impact in resource-limited settings is less explored. This study evaluated the impact of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) on diabetes distress and glycemic outcomes in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) within a public healthcare system. METHO...

Factors Associated with HbA1c-Lowering in a Randomized Trial of Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Adults with Non-Insulin-Treated Diabetes: An Observational Analysis.

BACKGROUND A prior randomized trial showed that CGM lowers HbA1c in adults with type 2 diabetes and elevated glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c > 7.0%) not on insulin. OBJECTIVES We examined the effect modifiers of CGM effectiveness, and factors associated with HbA1c-lowering. METHODS Secondary analysis of data from a rand...

Insulin delivery characteristics and glycemic control in older adults with type 1 diabetes using the Minimed™ 780G system: a real-world analysis

While the MiniMed™ 780G AID system use is associated with low CGM-derived hypoglycemia exposure and highly effective glycemic control, regardless of customized settings, superior glycemic control is associated with a higher proportion of user-initiated manual boluses.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate how using personal health records (PHRs; Health2Sync®) impacts long-term glycemic management and body weight in people with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and to identify factors associated with glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) changes. Methods: This single-center, retrospective observational...
