Presentation of PRECISE II U.S. Pivotal Trial Data of the Eversense CGM System at the 16th Annual Diabetes Technology Meeting
Results Demonstrate Best-In-Class MARD of 8.8%
GERMANTOWN, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Senseonics Holdings, Inc. (NYSE-MKT:SENS), a medical technology company
focused on the development and commercialization of a long-term,
implantable continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system for people with
diabetes, presented results of the PRECISE II U.S. pivotal trial at this
week’s 16th Annual Diabetes Technology Meeting in Bethesda,
Maryland.
The primary accuracy results demonstrate a mean absolute relative
difference (MARD) of 8.8% over the full glycemic range for the entire
90-day sensor duration. The MAD in the low range (<80 mg/dL) was shown
to be 9.6 mg/dL. A large data set of over 16,000 paired data points of
sensor and YSI reference glucose values were collected and used in the
accuracy analysis.
Significant findings also presented include:
-
The strong accuracy was sustained throughout the 90-day sensor life.
Performance across each of the 30-day intervals from the beginning,
middle and end of sensor life remained consistent.
-
Study results show 93% of readings were within 20% of the YSI
reference.
-
Excellent safety performance with no infections or skin irritation
reported during the 9,700 sensor wear days; 14 device or procedure
related adverse events in 7 subjects were reported with the most
frequent cited (n=8) was mild bruising or erythema.
-
The detection rate at the hypoglycemia alert setting (70 mg/dL) was
93% and 96% at the hyperglycemia alert setting (180 mg/dL).
-
The system showed strong sensor survival with 94% of the subjects
demonstrating continuous use through 90 days.
-
Sub-analysis showed no accuracy impact from exercise or sensor
compression
-
Sub-analysis of the dataset if calibrated only 1time/day demonstrated
a 9.5% MARD.
“We’re very pleased with the results from this very large and important
US trial. We want to thank the very dedicated people with diabetes who
participated in the study as well as all of our clinical investigators.
We are committed to bringing an accurate, reliable and long-lasting CGM
system to people with diabetes in the United States,” said Tim Goodnow,
PhD., President and CEO of Senseonics. “We look forward to working with
the FDA to receive approval as quickly as possible.”
As previously reported, the PRECISE II U.S. pivotal trial enrolled 90
adults with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes at eight clinical centers. The
objective of the study was to assess the safety and effectiveness of the
Eversense® CGM system over 90 days of continuous glucose sensor wear.
Participants in the study used the system’s smart transmitter and mobile
app at home for the next 90 days. Calibration was performed twice a day,
and Sensor glucose readings were calculated prospectively, but real-time
glucose readings and trends were not made available to participants.
Clinic visits were scheduled at approximately 30-day intervals in order
to obtain lab reference glucose values for comparison with the sensor
values and to evaluate hyperglycemic and hypoglycemic challenges in a
controlled setting.
Senseonics has submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
a Premarket Approval (PMA) application for its Eversense® CGM system.
Upon receiving FDA regulatory approval, Senseonics plans to initiate
sales in the United States. The company received its CE mark in May 2016
and is currently marketing the Eversense CGM System in select European
countries.
Eversense® CGM System is an Investigational Device and is limited by
United States law to investigational use.
