About this study

Official title: The Prediction of A1c Based on CGM Data Through Applying Machine Learning Approaches

Introduction. The hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) reflects the average blood glucose level for last two to three months. Recent advancements in the sensor technology facilitate the daily monitoring of the blood glucose using CGM devices. The future prediction of the HbA1C based on the CGM data holds a critical significance in maintaining long term health of diabetes patients. A higher than normal value of the HbA1c greatly increases the likelihood of diabetes related cardiovascular disease.

Goal. The aim this study is to predict the HbA1c in advance by utilizing the CGM data through applying machine learning techniques. The outcomes of this research will assist in improving the health of diabetic patients.

Methods. This is a retrospective analysis. The investigators will de-identify and analyze 120 patients with T1D who using CGM sensor for last three months. Past 15 days of CGM data will be analyzed and different glucose variability features such as time in range (TIR), coefficient of variation (CV), mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE), mean of daily differences (MODD), continuous overall net glycemic action (CONGA) will be extracted. A machine learning model will calculate (predict) HbA1c in 2-3 months advance based on these 15 days of CGM data. To evaluate the performance of the proposed prediction model, predicted HbA1c will be compared with the real HbA1c.

Read the detailed description

This is a retrospective analysis. The investigators will de-identify and analyze 120 patients with T1D using Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) system for last three months. Past 15 days of CGM data will be analyzed and different glucose variability features such as time in range (TIR), coefficient of variation (CV), mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE), mean of daily differences (MODD), continuous overall net glycemic action (CONGA) will be extracted. A machine learning model will be developed to predict HbA1c in 2-3 months advance based on these 15 days of CGM data. The model is using linear regression, penalized regression (Ridge regression, Lasso regression and Elastic net regression) in combination gradient boosting to calculate predictive A1c

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Flash Glucose MonitoringDevice

    Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) values will be downloaded from CGM device for a period of 90 days.

  • A1cOther

    A1c levels will be collected from Hospital EMR prior to CGM data downoad

  • Predictive A1cOther

    Predictive A1c will be calculated based on the first 15 days of CGM data using time in range (TIR), coefficient of variation (CV), mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE), mean of daily differences (MODD), continuous overall net glycemic action (CONGA). Predictive A1c will be correlated with actual A1c.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The difference of Predictive A1c level from CGM data with Real A1c level from EMR

    Difference (%) between Predicted A1c and laboratory A1c from the Electronic Medical Record

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1, run by Sidra Medicine at 1 site in Qatar.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Sep 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Qatar. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The difference of Predictive A1c level from CGM data with Real A1c level from EMR (time frame: 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03898076, which also lists 4 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
