SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tandem Diabetes Care, Inc. (NASDAQ: TNDM), a leading insulin delivery and diabetes technology company, today announced presentation of real-world data from pediatric users of the t:slim X2 insulin pump with Basal-IQ predictive low-glucose suspend technology at the 45th annual conference of the International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes (ISPAD). Data from 2,696 users under the age of 18 years old showed an overall rate of hypoglycemia of only 0.9 percent when using Basal-IQ technology. A subgroup of users with at least 21 days of sensor-augmented pump data prior to use of Basal-IQ technology demonstrated a 31 percent reduction in hypoglycemia following introduction of the feature (n=491).
Data Highlights
The study included de-identified real-world data uploaded to Tandems t:connect web application between August 31, 2018 and March 14, 2019, which was retrospectively analyzed to assess hypoglycemia outcomes.
Overall Group (n=2,696) The overall rate of hypoglycemia (defined as percent median time spent with sensor readings <70 mg/dL or 3.9 mmol/L) for this group was 0.9 percent. Algorithm-enabled insulin suspensions occurred on average 4.9 times per day for an average 15.5 minutes per suspension.
Subgroup (n=491) Pre-post analysis demonstrated median time spent <70 mg/dL or 3.9 mmol/L decreased from 1.6 to 1.1 percent upon introduction of Basal-IQ technology (p = <0.001), representing a 31 percent reduction in hypoglycemia. Sensor time-in-range (defined as 70-180 mg/dL or 3.9-10.0 mmol/L) remained steady between pre- and post-Basal-IQ technology use, however, there was a significant decrease in sensor glucose values greater than 300 mg/dL or 16.7 mmol/L (p=0.007).
About the t:slim X2 Insulin Pump with Basal-IQ Technology
The simple-to-use t:slim X2 insulin pump with Basal-IQ predictive low glucose suspend technology uses glucose values from an integrated Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitor to predict and help prevent lows with zero fingersticks*. The t:slim X2 insulin pump includes advanced features like a large color touchscreen, rechargeable battery, Bluetooth wireless technology, USB connectivity and watertight construction (IPX7)1. It is capable of remote software updates using a personal computer, offering the potential for in-warranty users to access new features as they meet necessary regulatory requirements2. The t:slim X2 insulin pump is up to 38 percent smaller than other insulin pumps and holds up to 300 units of insulin.3
Launch of the t:slim X2 insulin pump with Basal-IQ technology has begun in select international geographies. It is currently available on new t:slim X2 insulin pumps and as a software update to all in-warranty t:slim X2 insulin pump users in the United Kingdom, Sweden, Denmark, Spain, Italy, the Czech Republic, and South Africa.
