With newer technologies being used to monitor blood glucose levels, how can we use data from continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) to inform the day-to-day management of diabetes?
Our host, Dr. Ronald Goldenberg, takes a deeper look into this topic with Ms. Lori Berard, a Registered Nurse and Certified Diabetes Educator currently working as a Nurse Clinical Research Consultant in Winnipeg. She has authored several chapters in recent Diabetes Canada Clinical Practice Guidelines, notably the 2018 Guidelines on Monitoring Glycemic Control and the 2021 Update for Blood Glucose Monitoring in Adults and Children with Diabetes.
This episode discusses the technical and practical aspects of CGM use and how these newer technologies are changing diabetes care. Our experts touch on the differences between real-time and intermittently scanned CGM, and further explore the clinical relevance of key parameters such as time-in-range (TIR), time-below-range (TBR), and coefficient of variation (CV). They provide practical tips on interpreting ambulatory glucose profiles (AGP) and discuss the benefits and positive impact CGM and metrics beyond HbA1c have had in facilitating shared care in diabetes management.

Fixed-ratio combinations of basal insulin and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) have demonstrated maintenance of HbA1c efficacy, less hypoglycemia, and weight loss compared to basal-bolus insulin therapies in previous trials, but what is the latest evidence comparing these strategies in those with type 2 diabetes?
Our host, Dr. Ronald Goldenberg, takes a deeper look into this topic with Dr. Jeremy Gilbert, an endocrinologist at the Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre and Associate Professor at the University of Toronto Department of Medicine. He has authored chapters in recent Diabetes Canada Clinical Practice Guidelines and is the national lead for dissemination and implementation for the current guidelines. He is also an executive and national editor for the Canadian Journal of Diabetes, and the endocrinology section chair at the Royal College and Surgeons of Canada.
This episode discusses data from several studies recently presented at the ADA 2022 Scientific Sessions comparing fixed-ratio combinations of basal insulin and GLP-1 RA vs. basal-bolus regimens in type 2 diabetes, including the SoliSimplify and SoliComplex Real-World Studies, and the IDegLira HIGH Trial.
The SoliSimplify and SoliComplex Studies directly compared iGlarLixi (insulin glargine 100 U/mL and lixisenatide) vs. a basal-bolus regimen in those with type 2 diabetes advancing from basal insulin therapy, evaluating HbA1c and body weight outcomes, and treatment persistence and adherence outcomes, respectively. The IDegLira HIGH Trial compared the efficacy and safety of IDegLira (insulin degludec and liraglutide) vs. a basal-bolus regimen in those with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes and very high HbA1c. Our experts also dive into the relevance and applicability of these recent study findings to clinical practice.

Metrics beyond HbA1c such as glucose variability are emerging as key parameters that can help guide the daily management of diabetes, but what is the clinical relevance of such measures, particularly for those with diabetes taking basal insulin?
Our host, Dr. Ronald Goldenberg, takes a deeper look into this topic with Dr. Tadej Battelino, Professor, Head, and Chair of Pediatrics at the University of Ljubljana Faculty of Medicine, and Head of the Department of Pediatric and Adolescent Endocrinology at the UMC Ljubljana.
There has been limited data on the utility of CGM as an outcome measure in clinical practice and a lack of evidence on the use of CGM to compare second-generation basal insulin analogues glargine 300 U/mL (Gla-300) and degludec 100 U/mL (IDeg-100). InRange was the first randomized controlled trial to compare Gla-300 and IDeg-100 in adults with type 1 diabetes using CGM data to assess time-in-range (TIR) as the primary endpoint.
This episode discusses the within-day and between-day glucose variability data from the InRange study comparing Gla-300 and IDeg-100, of which Dr. Battelino was the primary investigator. Our experts also dive into the topics of why glucose variability should be a parameter of greater consideration, with a focus on coefficient of variation.
