IntroductionThe present study aimed to evaluate the effects of flash glucose monitoring (FGM) and conventional self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) on glycemic control in patients with non-insulin-treated type 2 diabetes.Research design and methodsIn this 24-week, multicenter, open-label, randomized (1:1), parallel-group study, patients with non-insulin-treated type 2 diabetes at five hospitals in Japan were randomly assigned to the FGM (n=49) or SMBG (n=51) groups and were provided each device for 12 weeks. The primary outcome was change in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level, and was compared using analysis of covariance model that included baseline values and group as covariates.ResultsForty-eight participants in the FGM group and 45 in the SMBG group completed the study. The mean HbA1c levels were 7.83% (62.1 mmol/mol) in the FGM group and 7.84% (62.2 mmol/mol) in the SMBG group at baseline, and the values were reduced in both FGM (−0.43% (−4.7 mmol/mol), p<0.001) and SMBG groups (−0.30% (−3.3 mmol/mol), p=0.001) at 12 weeks. On the other hand, HbA1c was significantly decreased from baseline values in the FGM group, but not in the SMBG group at 24 weeks (FGM: −0.46% (−5.0 mmol/mol), p<0.001; SMBG: −0.17% (−1.8 mmol/mol), p=0.124); a significant between-group difference was also observed (difference −0.29% (−3.2 mmol/mol), p=0.022). Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire score was significantly improved, and the mean glucose levels, SD of glucose, mean amplitude of glycemic excursions and time in hyperglycemia were significantly decreased in the FGM group compared with the SMBG group.ConclusionsGlycemic control was better with FGM than with SMBG after cessation of glucose monitoring in patients with non-insulin-treated type 2 diabetes.Trial registration numberUMIN000026452, jRCTs041180082.

Aim: Analyse the effects of professional flash glucose monitoring system (FreeStyle Libre Pro™) on glycaemic control in insulin-treated type 2 diabetes. Methods: Primary (n = 17) and secondary care centres (n = 5) randomised 148 type 2 diabetes patients into three groups: (A) self-monitoring of blood glucose (n = 52), (B) self-monitoring of blood glucose and two Libre Pro sensor wears (n = 46) or (C) self-monitoring of blood glucose and four sensor wears (n = 50). Primary endpoint was time in range (glucose 3.9–10 mmol/L) within group C comparing baseline with days 172–187. Predefined secondary endpoints included HbA1c, hypoglycaemia and quality of life measures analysed within and between groups (clinicaltrials.gov, NCT02434315). Results: In group C, time in range in the first 14 days (baseline) and days 172–187 was similar at 15.0 ± 5.0 and 14.1 ± 4.7 h/day (mean ± SD), respectively, (p = 0.1589). In contrast, HbA1c reduced from baseline to study end within group C by 4.9 ± 8.8 mmol/mol (0.44% ± 0.81%; p = 0.0003). HbA1c was also lower in group C compared with A at study end by 5.4 ± 1.79 mmol/mol (0.48% ± 0.16%; p = 0.0041, adjusted mean ± SE), without increased time in hypoglycaemia ( p = 0.1795). Treatment satisfaction scores improved in group C compared with A ( p = 0.0225) and no device-related serious adverse events were reported. Conclusions: Libre Pro can improve HbA1c and treatment satisfaction without increasing hypoglycaemic exposure in insulin-treated type 2 diabetes individuals managed in primary/secondary care centres.

Abstract Background and aims: Flash glucose monitoring (FGM) is a novel system with which glucose levels are monitored and has been reported to improve glucose variability and glycemic control in type 1 and type 2 diabetes patients treated with insulin. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of FGM and conventional self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) on glycemic control in patients with non-insulin-treated type 2 diabetes. Reseach design and Methods: In this 24-week, multicenter, open-label, randomized (1:1), parallel group study, non-insulin-treated type 2 diabetic patients at 5 hospitals in Japan were randomly assigned to the FGM (n = 49) or SMBG (n = 51) groups and were provided FGM or SMBG devices for 12 weeks. The primary outcome was change in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level. This trial is registered with UMIN-CTR (UMIN000026452). Results: Forty-eight participants in the FGM group and 45 in the SMBG group completed the study. The mean HbA1c levels were 7·83% (SD 0·25) in the FGM group and 7·84% (SD 0·27) in the SMBG group at baseline, and the values were reduced in both FGM (−0·43%; 95% confidence interval [CI], −0·57 to −0·28; p &lt; 0·0001) and SMBG groups (−0·30%; 95% CI −0·48 to −0·13; p = 0·001) at 12 weeks. On the other hand, HbA1c was significantly decreased from baseline values in the FGM group, but not in the SMBG group at 24 weeks (FGM: −0·46%, 95% CI −0·59 to −0·32, p &lt; 0·0001; SMBG: −0·17%, 95% CI −0·05 to 0·11, p = 0·124); a significant between-group difference was also observed (difference −0·29%, 95% CI −0·54 to −0·05; p = 0·022). Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire score was significantly improved, and the mean glucose levels, standard deviation of glucose, mean amplitude of glycemic excursions, and duration of hyperglycemia were significantly decreased in the FGM group compared with the SMBG group. Conclusions: Glycemic control was better with FGM than with SMBG after cessation of glucose monitoring in non-insulin-treated type 2 diabetic patients.
