Abbott recalls Freestyle Libre 3 sensors due to incorrect glucose readings

Dive Brief Abbott has recalled a small number of Freestyle Libre 3 sensors distributed in the U.S. in the first half of May, the company said Wednesday. Internal testing found a subset of three lots of the continuous glucose monitor (CGM) sensors may provide incorrect high glucose readings, the company said. The false readings could lead to incorrect treatment decisions, such as taking insulin when not required. Abbott is sending free replacements to affected users. A spokesperson for Abbott said via email the recall “may impact less than 1% of Libre 3 users in the U.S.” but did not specify the number of devices affected when asked. Dive Insight Abbott’s Freestyle Libre 3 CGM product consists of a wearable sensor, a reader and an app. The recall affects only the sensor component. Abbott has “received a small number of reports from consumers regarding the issue,” the spokesperson wrote. The company ...

Chiatai Tianqing’s Liraglutide Approved for Listing, Formally Entering the Field of Biological Drugs to Control Glucose

On June 25, Chiatai Tianqing received the Certificate of Drug Registration approved by the State Drug Administration, and the company’s liraglutide injection was approved to be listed in the market, which is used for controlling blood glucose in adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This is the ninth new product (including new indications) approved by Chiatai Tianqing since this year. The approval of this product also marks Chiatai Tianqing’s formal entry into the field of biopharmaceutical glycemic control. Liraglutide is a long-acting analog of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) with 97% homology to natural GLP-1, an endogenous enteric insulinotropic hormone that enhances glucose-dependent insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells. In addition to pancreatic islet cells, GLP-1 receptors are widely present in gastrointestinal, lung, brain, kidney, cardiovascular system and other organs and tissues. Liraglutide prolongs the half-life of GLP-1 on the basis of retaining the physiological action characteristics of GLP-1, and needs to ...

FDA Clears First Over-the-Counter Continuous Glucose Monitor

Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration cleared for marketing the first over-the-counter (OTC) continuous glucose monitor (CGM). The Dexcom Stelo Glucose Biosensor System is an integrated CGM (iCGM) intended for anyone 18 years and older who does not use insulin, such as individuals with diabetes treating their condition with oral medications, or those without diabetes who want to better understand how diet and exercise may impact blood sugar levels. Importantly, this system is not for individuals with problematic hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) as the system is not designed to alert the user to this potentially dangerous condition. “CGMs can be a powerful tool to help monitor blood glucose. Today’s clearance expands access to these devices by allowing individuals to purchase a CGM without the involvement of a health care provider,” said Jeff Shuren, M.D., J.D., director of the FDA’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health. “Giving more individuals valuable ...
