Objective: The MiniMed™ 780G system with the adjunctive Guardian™ sensor 3 that requires calibration has been commercially available in Europe, since October 2020. Since October 2021, the system has been available with the non-adjunctive Guardian™ 4 sensor, which does not require calibration. In this study, glycemic outcomes during real-world MiniMed™ 780G system use with both sensors were evaluated.

Methods: Analyses were based on data collected on Dec 10, 2021, from consenting system users (N=674) residing in Europe with ≥days of sensor glucose (SG) data from both sensors. Glycemic outcomes including mean±SD of the glucose management indicator (GMI) and percentage of time spent in target range of 70-180mg/dL (TIR) , at <54mg/dL and <70mg/dL (TBR) and at >180mg/dL (TAR) were assessed. The time spent in AHCL, number of AHCL exits/week and self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) measurements/day were also determined. Results:

System use with the Guardian™ 4 sensor versus Guardian™ sensor 3 demonstrated 94±9% vs 93±11% of time in AHCL, 73.1±11.4% vs 74.6±9.8% TIR, 0.11±0.16% vs 0.51±0.58% TBR<54, 1.6±1.4% vs 2.4±1.8% TBR<70, and 25.3±11.7% vs 23.1±10.0% TAR<180. During the night (12AM-6AM) , greater glycemic control was observed: with 81.6±13.3% vs 82.8±11.0% TIR, 0.09±0.22% vs 0.42±0.69% TBR<54, 1.1±1.5% vs 1.8±1.9% TBR<70 and 17.3±13.3% vs 15.4±11.0% TAR>180. The GMI was 6.98±0.43% vs 6.84±0.38%. Closed-loop exits were 0.83±1.02 vs 1.1±1.06/week and SMBG measurements were 0.9±0.9 vs 3.3±0.9/day. Conclusion: Real-world MiniMed™ 780G system use findings indicate reduced burden related to SMBG measurements and closed-loop exits, with the Guardian™ 4 sensor, while maintaining favorable glycemic outcomes of the MiniMed™ 780G + Guardian™ sensor 3 system.
