Agenda: On March 29, 2018, the
committee will discuss, make
recommendations, and vote on
information regarding a premarket
approval application to market a novel
continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)
device system, the Senseonics, Inc.
Eversense CGM System. This device
requires minor surgery to implant and
remove, and if approved, would provide
90 days of sensor glucose values from
each implanted sensor.
The Eversense CGM System measures
patients’ glucose concentrations from
subcutaneous interstitial fluid similar to
approved CGM systems. All CGM
devices currently or previously
marketed used electrochemistry to
measure glucose in interstitial fluids,
last for 3 to 11 days and are inserted via
a small-gauge needle by the end user.
The proposed CGM system uses a
fluorescence-based measurement
technique, requires minor surgery for
subcutaneous implantation, and will
have a 90-day sensor wear period. The
proposed CGM sensor also includes a
drug component (dexamethasone
acetate) intended to mitigate negative
effects on sensor accuracy and sensor
life from the foreign body response at
the sensor insertion site. The proposed
intended use, as stated by the sponsor,
is as follows:
The Eversense CGM System
continually measures glucose levels in
adults (age 18 and older) with diabetes
for the operating life of the sensor.
The system is intended to:
• Aid in the management of diabetes.
• Provide real-time glucose readings.
• Provide glucose trend information.
• Provide alerts for the detection and
prediction of episodes of low blood
glucose (hypoglycemia) and high blood
glucose (hyperglycemia).
The system is a prescription device.
Historical data from the system can be
interpreted to aid in providing therapy
adjustments. These adjustments should
be based on patterns seen over time.
On March 30, 2018, the committee
will discuss and make
recommendations regarding measuring
blood glucose using capillary blood
with blood glucose meters in all
hospital patients, including those
PO 00000
Frm 00056
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

receiving intensive medical
intervention/therapy and patients with
decreased peripheral blood flow, such
as with severe hypotension, shock,
hyperosmolar-hyperglycemia and severe
dehydration (e.g., patients in intensive
care settings). Currently, FDA has
cleared one glucose meter for use all
over the hospital using venous and
arterial blood. FDA understands that
being able to make capillary blood
measurements in all hospitalized
patients using FDA cleared and Clinical
Laboratory Improvement Amendments
(CLIA) waived (i.e., designated as
waived per the standards in the CLIA)
glucose meters would be more
convenient and timely for hospital staff.
FDA would like to present new data
from capillary blood measurements on
glucose meters in patients receiving
intensive medical intervention/therapy
to the Clinical Chemistry and Clinical
Toxicology Devices Panel. FDA would
like to receive feedback from the
advisory panel on the benefits and risks
of measuring capillary blood using
blood glucose meters in this intended
use population, and the considerations
for CLIA waiver for this use.
FDA intends to make background
material available to the public no later
than 2 business days before the meeting.
If FDA is unable to post the background
material on its website prior to the
meeting, the background material will
be made publicly available at the
location of the advisory committee
meeting, and the background material
will be posted on FDA’s website after
the meeting. Background material is
available at https://www.fda.gov/

Procedure: Interested persons may
present data, information, or views,
orally or in writing, on issues pending
before the committee. Written
submissions may be made to the contact
person on or before March 22, 2018.
Oral presentations from the public will
be scheduled on March 29 and 30, 2018,
between approximately 1 p.m. and 2
p.m. Those individuals interested in
making formal oral presentations should
notify the contact person and submit a
brief statement of the general nature of
the evidence or arguments they wish to
present, the names and addresses of
proposed participants, and an
indication of the approximate time
requested to make their presentation on
or before March 14, 2018. Time allotted
for each presentation may be limited. If
the number of registrants requesting to
speak is greater than can be reasonably
accommodated during the scheduled

conduct a lottery to determine the
speakers for the scheduled open public
hearing session. The contact person will
notify interested persons regarding their
request to speak by March 15, 2018.

committee meetings are advised that the
Agency is not responsible for providing
access to electrical outlets.
