Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The LENNY randomized trial (NCT05574062) demonstrated that the MiniMed 780G system with Guardian TM 4 sensor (MM780G/G4S) is safe and effective for young children with type 1 diabetes (CwT1D). The continuation phase objective was to evaluate MM780G when used for extended time and when used with the Simplera Sync TM sensor (MM780G/SY). METHODS: CwT1D who completed the initial study phase underwent a 12-24-week period using MM780G/G4S (in Auto Mode), after which they were randomly allocated to either continue using the same set-up or switch to MM780G/SY (in Auto Mode) for 12 weeks. The primary endpoint was the between-arm difference in mean HbA1c after the 12-week period (non-inferiority). RESULTS: 91 CwT1D were enrolled in the continuation phase. After the initial 12-24-week period, mean +/- SD HbA1c was 7.16 +/- 0.59 %. After the 12-week treatment period, mean +/- SD HbA1c was 7.24 +/- 0.64 % for MM780G/G4S and 7.30 +/- 0.53 % for MM780G/SY (estimated treatment effect = 0.14 %, 95 % CI - 0.03 to 0.31 %). Over the 12 weeks, mean +/- SD time-in-range (TIR) was 68.9 +/- 8.6 % for MM780G/G4S and 69.7 +/- 7.7 % for MM780G/SY. Non-inferiority was confirmed for HbA1c and TIR. CONCLUSION: In CwT1D aged 2-6 years and TDD >= 6 units, the safety and good glycemic control from MM780G were sustained for >= 1 year and MM780G/SY was non-inferior to MM780/G4S.
