Glytec Adds Smart Meter to Growing Network of Connected Solution Partners

The iGlucose® Cell-Enabled Diabetes Care Solution from Smart Meter is now compatible with Glytec’s virtual insulin titration service.

For millions of patients with diabetes who’ve been unable to achieve their treatment goals, few programs have the potential to reduce A1C faster or more effectively than Glytec’s virtual insulin titration service. The innovative service harnesses the integration of Glytec’s Glucommander™ Outpatient software with multiple connected diabetes technologies and health information systems, including those for blood glucose measurement, insulin delivery, medical record keeping and patient communication, among others. The latest company to join Glytec’s network of connected solution partners is Smart Meter, LLC, maker of the iGlucose® Cell-Enabled Diabetes Care Solution, bringing timely, complete and accurate data to insulin titration.

Study Shows Computer-Guided Insulin Dosing Plus More Frequent Blood Glucose Testing Leads to Better Outcomes for Patients with Diabetes

New study in which insulin dosing was guided by Glytec’s Glucommander™ Outpatient observed markedly greater reductions in A1c among patients who tested blood glucose twice a day or more.

A retrospective study being presented at the 11th International Conference on Advanced Technologies & Treatments for Diabetes (ATTD) observed that use of Glytec’s Glucommander™ Outpatient for insulin therapy management combined with blood glucose self-testing at least twice a day resulted in better patient outcomes, including a 3.0% absolute reduction in A1c and virtually no hypoglycemia (0.003%) less than 54 mg/dL.

Robby Booth of Glytec Discusses the Importance of Data-Sharing Capabilities

Data-sharing capabilities are important for faster communications and results that can greatly benefit the patient, says Robby Booth, senior vice president of research and development at Glytec.

Over the past few months, there have been some announcements that we’ve made. We have a partnership now with AgaMatrix, which is a Bluetooth glucose meter, to be able to capture their data from the cloud. We have a partnership with Livongo, which is a cellular meter, so we can capture that data from their cloud; and we have a partnership with Telcare, which is also a cellular meter.

AgaMatrix and Glytec Announce Partnership to Deliver a Cloud-Based Diabetes Management Platform to Improve Clinical Insights and Patient Blood Glucose Control

AgaMatrix, Inc. and Glytec announced today they are partnering to optimize clinical access to accurate glucose data and insulin titration support through a cloud-based diabetes management platform.

AgaMatrix is integrating their FDA-cleared Jazz Wireless 2 Bluetooth® Blood Glucose Monitoring System with Glytec’s eGlycemic Management System® (eGMS®), featuring FDA-cleared Glucommander™ for evidence-based insulin dosing decision support. By automatically transferring patient blood glucose data from the AgaMatrix Diabetes Manager App to eGMS®, health care professionals are able to deliver personalized diabetes therapy management in a virtual setting. The two companies are actively engaged in a pilot of this integrated solution.

Advancements in Diabetes Treatment to Watch

The healthcare industry continues to focus efforts on treatments that work better, and ideally are less expensive and less invasive for patients.

Diabetes therapy management software with decision support for dosing and titration is the final piece of the therapeutic puzzle. In concert with data made available through CGM and cBGM, this software can help providers properly dose and titrate diabetes medications, especially insulin, and choose which diabetes medications may work best for each patient. Diabetes therapy management software, in its earliest form, was launched by Glytec in 2006.

Glucose Management by Software Proves Effective

A software system called Glucommander from Glytec Systems works well at titrating the right dose to bring blood sugar levels under control.

The company has now released results of a 30-day study for outpatients using the system in their homes. The subjects were given a glucometer that transmits data readings using a cellular data connection. The Glucommander system would then send the recommended dosage to the patient as a text message. The results of the test showed that 90% of the subjects in the study were able to achieve their target levels within three weeks.

Study of Glytec’s Glucommander in an Outpatient Setting Indicates Dramatic A1C Reductions

Ninety percent of study participants achieved target glucose within 3 weeks and achieved an average reduction in estimated A1C of 3.0%.

Glytec, the pioneer and leader in providing innovative glucose management software solutions, announced today that Glucommander™, a component of the company’s eGMS® platform, achieved its 30-day primary efficacy endpoint in a study evaluating the average A1C reduction in an outpatient setting for persons with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. According to study results, Glucommander was effective at titrating insulin doses and quickly achieving glucose control, with low rates of hypoglycemia, for 22 patients, regardless of the severity of their diabetes. The average starting A1C was 10.4% and the average estimated A1C (eA1C) at 30-days was 7.4%.
