Methods to optimize care after T1D diagnosis are needed. We hypothesized lowering A1c targets to <7% would further lower A1c in the 4T Study in which CGM with asynchronous remote patient monitoring (RPM) is initiated after T1D diagnosis. All youth with newly diagnosed T1D (June 2020-March 2022) were offered CGM and RPM after diagnosis (Study 1, n=133). We compared A1c at 1-year in Study 1 with the 4T Pilot (2018-20) and Historical cohorts (2014-16). We visualized population-based A1c trajectories using locally estimated scatter plot smoothing (Fig) and % meeting A1c targets. Mean A1c at diagnosis was similar in Pilot (12.2%±2.1%) and Study 1 (12.2±2.4%) and higher than the Historical cohort (10.7±2.5%). In Study 1, the median age of diagnosis was 10.8 years, 55% male, 40% non-Hispanic White, and 38% with public insurance. CGM initiation occurred within 30 days of diagnosis in 98.5%. At 3, 6, 9, and 12 months post-diagnosis, the Study 1 cohort had LOESS-based mean A1c differences of 0.16%, 0.24%, 0.31%, and 0.58% lower than the Pilot and 0.04%, 0.60%, 0.83%, and 1.06% lower than the Historical cohort. A1c target <7% was met by 61% of youth in Study 1, 51% in the Pilot and 28% in the Historical cohort. Time <70mg/dl was ≤2.3%. The 4T program which emphasizes early CGM initiation, RPM, tighter glucose targets, and consistent team messaging was associated with lower A1c. These data support implementation of the 4T program in youth with T1D. Disclosure P.Prahalad: None.

Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) use soon after T1D diagnosis in the 4T Study was associated with improved glycemic outcomes. We evaluated participant factors associated with elevated versus in target A1c for youth in the 4T Study. All youth from the 4T Study 1 (n=133) were evaluated. In this analysis, the 110 youth who had a final A1c between 6-13 months were included in a complete case analysis. These 110 youth were comparable to the 133 4T Study 1 youth by race/ethnicity, insurance, preferred language, and age. Group differences by non-ordered A1c categories were evaluated for categorical (race/ethnicity, insurance, gender, and language) and continuous (age and time from CGM start) variables via chi-square and ANOVA, respectively. A majority of youth in the 4T Study 1 met glycemic targets (65% with A1c ≤7% between 6-13 months post-diagnosis). Age, race/ethnicity, and insurance status were significantly associated with A1c categories (p=0.02 for all; Table). Higher A1c categories were more likely to include Hispanic youth and youth with public insurance. In the 4T Study 1, Hispanic youth and youth with public insurance had higher A1c categories despite similar CGM access and training. These findings suggest the need to address additional drivers of disparities in addition to CGM access. Approaches focused on health equity are required to improve glycemic outcomes in all youth newly diagnosed with T1D. Disclosure J. Kim: None. D. P.

Abstract In type 2 diabetes (T2D), the dawn phenomenon is an overnight glucose rise recognized to contribute to overall glycemia and is a potential target for therapeutic intervention. Existing CGM-based approaches do not account for sensor error, which can mask the true extent of the dawn phenomenon. To address this challenge, we developed a probabilistic framework that incorporates sensor error to assign a probability to the occurrence of dawn phenomenon. In contrast, the current approaches label glucose fluctuations as dawn phenomena as a binary yes/no. We compared the proposed probabilistic model with a standard binary model on CGM data from 173 participants (71% female, 87% Hispanic/Latino, 54 ± 12 years, with either a diagnosis of T2D for six months or with an elevated risk of T2D) stratified by HbA1clevels into normal but at risk for T2D, with pre-T2D, or with non-insulin-treated T2D. The probabilistic model revealed a higher dawn phenomenon frequency in T2D [49% (95% CI 37–63%)] compared to pre-T2D [36% (95% CI 31–48%), p = 0.01] and at-risk participants [34% (95% CI 27–39%), p < 0.0001]. While these trends were also found using the binary approach, the probabilistic model identified significantly greater dawn phenomenon frequency than the traditional binary model across all three HbA1csub-groups (p < 0.0001), indicating its potential to detect the dawn phenomenon earlier across diabetes risk categories.

Psychosocial impacts of early CGM initiation in youth soon after T1D diagnosis are underexplored. We report parent/guardian (PG) and youth trends in Patient Reported Outcomes (PROs) for families in the 4T Study 1. Of the 133 participants in the 4T Study 1, 125 PG and 60 youth (≥11 years) were eligible for PROs. PROs included Diabetes Distress Scale - Parent (mean DDS-P) for PG and for youth, Diabetes Distress Scale (DDS sum), PROMIS Pediatric Global Health (PGH sum), Diabetes Technology Attitudes (DTA sum), and CGM Benefits/Burden (BenCGM and BurCGM sum). Kruskal Wallis rank sum test evaluated temporal trends and sociodemographics were evaluated (Numerical: Wilcoxon rank; Categorical: Fisher's if n<5, Chi-squared if n≥5). PROs completion rates were higher for PG than youth at baseline (74% v 59%), 3 months (70% v 53%), and 6 months (66% v 50%). PG DDS-P remained low throughout the study (Table). Youth had favorable psychosocial trends (low DDS and high PGH), and perceived technology positively (high DTA and BenCGM with low BurCGM). Age, DKA at diagnosis, gender, ethnicity, insurance status, and language spoken were not associated with PROs scores in PG or youth. CGM initiation shortly after T1D diagnosis is not associated with poor or worsening PROs for PG and youth. These data suggest that early CGM initiation does not adversely impact psychosocial states for families and youth with T1D. Disclosure A.Addala: None. F.K.Bishop: None.

Use of diabetes technology (CGM, pump) is recommended for people with T1D, and early CGM initiation leads to improved glucose values. We compare %CGM and %pump use and time to initiation from T1D diagnosis in the Historical cohort, 4T Pilot, and 4T Study 1 and the associated workflow changes to increase early technology use. CGM initiation within 30 days of diagnosis increased from 2% in the historical cohort to 92% in Pilot 4T to 98% in 4T Study 1 (Table). Days to pump initiation from TID diagnosis decreased from 272 in the historical cohort to 144 days in Study 1. From 2014-2016 pumps and CGM were initiated when families expressed interest or if the provider discussed them. Families were required to attend a pre-pump class where the CDCES introduced pumps and CGMs prior to starting technology. During the 4T Pilot and 4T Study 1, CGMs were introduced and started during the first month of diagnosis. In Study 1, families were encouraged to attend pump class and initiate AID. The CDCES team does the CGM teach, CGM follow-up, pre-pump classes, and insulin pump starts for the families in preferred language. In 4T Study 2 (enrolling) standard of care is to complete a pre-pump class in the first 3 months after diagnosis. Changes in processes can lead to early implementation of diabetes technology. A structured, team-based process to introduce, reduce barriers, and encourage families to utilize diabetes technology increases early initiation.
