Feasibility study underway for the Company's novel continuous blood glucose monitor in patients with diabetes, with data expected within 6-8 weeks

Rutherford, NJ, Dec. 03, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Glucotrack, Inc. (NASDAQ:GCTK) ("Glucotrack" or the "Company"), a medical technology company focused on the design, development, and commercialization of novel technologies for people with diabetes, has announced the commencement of patient enrollment for its short-term human clinical study. The study will focus on the Company's continuous blood glucose monitor ("CBGM") and will include participants with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Data from the study is expected to be available within 6-8 weeks.

Unlike traditional continuous glucose monitors that measure glucose levels in interstitial fluid, Glucotrack's CBGM measures glucose directly from blood, aiming to provide real-time readings without the lag time typically associated with interstitial glucose measurements. The CBGM is a long-term implantable device with no on-body external component, designed for three years of continuous, accurate blood glucose monitoring, offering a more convenient and less intrusive glucose monitoring solution.

The prospective, single arm study is a short-term in-hospital study in which the CBGM sensor will be placed intravascularly for a period of four days. Study participants, who have been diagnosed with diabetes mellitus requiring glucose monitoring and intensive insulin therapy, will participate in several fixed meal and glucose challenges during the study period.
