Study Description

Brief Summary:

Diabetes mellitus (diabetes) is a chronic condition that represents a major public health and clinical concern. Self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) is a critical part of the care of individuals with diabetes. SMBG entails capillary fingerstick blood glucose testing multiple times per day. Many people with diabetes find this testing painful and cumbersome, often resulting in poor compliance to a glucose self-monitoring schedule. Furthermore, SMBG only provides limited visibility on daily and nightly glucose profiles, meaning that hypo- and hyperglycaemic episodes can be missed or detected with delay. The use of minimally invasive continuous glucose monitoring devices (CGMs) in diabetes management circumvents these challenges as CGMs measure glucose every few minutes over a period of 1-2 weeks through a sensor with a fine needle that is inserted once into a user's arm or abdomen. This enables periodic glucose measurement without repeat finger pricks and provides the user with a detailed glucose profile over the entire wear time of the sensor, thus enabling better adjustment of therapy or behaviour.

In populations where CGMs are accessible to people with diabetes as standard of care and without additional cost, many people with type 1 diabetes have switched from SMBG via fingerstick to the use of CGMs permanently, using the devices continuously. This is rarely possibly for people with type 1 diabetes in the public sector in LMICs as CGMs are not provided as standard of care. Little data on effectiveness, feasibility, acceptability, and cost of the use of CGMs in LMIC populations is available to inform clinical models for the integration of CGMs into diabetes management. Furthermore, it has not been investigated if intermittent, as opposed to continuous use of CGMs provides clinical benefit. Intermittent use could be beneficial for people with diabetes who do not have the means to pay for continuous use of CGMs.

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness, feasibility, acceptability, and cost of intermittent and continuous use of CGM among people with type 1 diabetes in South Africa.

Detailed Description:

3 Study Design As this study is a PrCT the study aspects will be embedded in the normal clinical care delivery of diabetes care in the selected clinics (see section 3.2, Scientific Rational for Selection of Study Design). Introducing only 1 additional clinic visit and 1 additional qualitative visit for study related procedures. The primary outcome measure, HbA1c, will be assessed through the HbA1c testing that is already used in these clinics. It is important to note that the type of HbA1c test (i.e.: laboratory-based vs point-of-care) per participant must remain constant during the study, this is because of variability of performance between various HbA1c testing platforms.

3.1 General Design This is a three-arm pragmatic randomized control study. The expected duration of study participants involvement in the study is 15 months, this consists of 9 months of intervention with a follow up visit 6 months post the last interventional study visit. There will be 6 total study visits for all participants.

• Arm 1 is those participants randomized to use of CGM in a continuous fashion; CGM use for the duration of 9 months.
• Arm 2 is those participants randomized to intermittent use of CGM; CGM use for 4 time points consisting of 2 weeks of CGM use each, for the duration of 9 months.
• Arm 3 is those participants randomized to standard of care; regular use of self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) for the duration of 9 months.

For all participants the first study visit will consist of:

1. Enrolment including ICF,
2. Baseline surveys including demographics, the Glucose Monitoring Satisfaction Survey (GMSS-T1D), HRQOL surveys, and diabetes distress score survey.
3. Randomized assignment to study arm,
4. Blood draw for HbA1c testing (if not already done in the previous 1 month).

Those participants randomized to Arm 1 and Arm 2 will receive an education session on the CGM, be provided with the CGM, and be guided how to self-apply the CGM during enrolment visit.

During all Study Follow Up visits participants will have blood drawn for HbA1c testing, complete a brief survey to capture any hospitalizations and/or hypoglycaemic events related to diabetes complications that occurred between study visits.

Additionally, during Study Follow up visit C participants will complete the Glucose Monitoring Satisfaction Survey (GMSS-T1D), diabetes distress score survey, and an acceptability survey. During Study Follow up visit D, participants will complete the HRQOL surveys and diabetes distress score survey. During Study Follow up visit E participants will complete the Glucose Monitoring Satisfaction Survey (GMSS-T1D), diabetes distress score survey, and HRQOL surveys.

Detailed explanation of the study visits per arm are outlined below by arm in section 3.1.1, 3.1.2, 3.1.3

Qualitative methods used across all arms will consist of focus group discussions (FGDs) among the participants and caregivers of participants. Approximately 15 participants above the age of 18 years old will be selected from each arm (n=45, 3 FGD in total) and approximately 15 participants age range of 11 to 17 years old will be selected from each arm (n=45, 3 FGD in total) to participate in arm specific FGD to take place 30 to 35 weeks after study enrolment started. These FGDs will focus on understanding participant perceptions towards their current glucose monitoring devices and quality of life. To capture the perspectives of care givers of children and adolescents living with T1 diabetes 15 caregivers will be selected from each arm (n=45, 3 FGD in total) to participate in arm specific FGDs to take place 30 to 35 weeks after study enrolment started. These FGDs will focus on understanding care giver perspectives towards their minor's glucose monitoring devices and quality of life from the perspective of the care giver as well as their perceptions towards the quality of life for their minor.

Qualitative methods will also be used to gather perceptions from the healthcare providers regarding their perceptions surrounding the feasibility and acceptability of use of CGMs in their settings. This will consist of a semi-structured interviews (SSI) of selected HCW (n=10 total) to be conducted after week 36 after study enrolment started.

3.1.1 Arm 1 Continuous use of CGM For those in Arm 1 there will be 6 study visits for all participants. There will be an additional visit for a FGD among a subset of participants.

After completion of study participation, those in Arm 3 will be offered 1 CGM to use such that they can experience CGM use. Those participants who accept the CGM will be provided with an education session on CGM use before application.

3.2 Scientific Rationale for Study Design As this study intendeds to generate evidence to inform policy and decision makers on the potential benefits of use of CGM in South Africa a pragmatic, rather than an explanatory, randomized control study design was selected [9]. A PrCT design was selected as the study aims to understand the impact of CGM use in as close to real world settings as possible. A classically designed randomized control trial with overly strict study criteria and processes may lead results that are not directly translatable to real world experience, while a classical RCT may have strong internal validity often RCTs are criticized for a lack of external validity, therefore a PrCT design was selected to balance internal and external validity [12]. A PrCT design may "provide more realistic effect size estimates and enhance translation of research findings into clinical practice".

Arms and Interventions

Arm	Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Arm 1; Arm 1 is those participants randomized to use of CGM in a continuous fashion; CGM use for the duration of 9 months.	Device: Continuous glucose monitor; Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) is a technology used to measure glucose levels in people with diabetes. Unlike traditional finger prick self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG), CGM devices provide continuous and real-time glucose readings throughout the day and night. CGM systems consist of a small sensor that is inserted under the skin to measure glucose levels in the interstitial fluid, a transmitter that sends the glucose data to a receiver or smartphone, which shows the glucose readings. The sensor measures glucose levels automatically at regular intervals, eliminating the need for frequent finger pricks. CGM devices can track glucose trends, identify high or low glucose levels, and provide alerts for hypo- or hyperglycemia. This can help individuals make more informed decisions regarding their diabetes management, such as adjusting insulin doses, dietary choices, or physical activity levels.; Other Name: Freestyle Libre Abbott
