The U.S. FDA cleared Senseonic Holdings Inc.’s Eversense 365, the first continuous glucose monitor to last a full year with a single sensor rather than the 10 days to two weeks typical for wearable sensors such as those offered by Abbott Laboratories and Dexcom Inc.

Dexcom Inc. revealed data from several studies showing significant benefits of its continuous glucose monitoring technology on adults with type 2 diabetes who are not treated with insulin. In one study, 100% of these users made dietary changes after starting to use Dexcom CGM, with 91% feeling empowered to manage their condition and 27% improving medication adherence after six months.

Abbott Laboratories’ diabetes unit opened the month with a two-cannon salvo – a partnership with Beta Bionics Inc. that will integrate Abbott’s Freestyle Libre 3 Plus continuous glucose monitor with the Ilet Bionic Pancreas system and the roll out of its over-the-counter Lingo CGM in the U.S.

As of this week, consumers can order Dexcom Inc.’s Stelo continuous glucose monitor (CGM) online without a prescription, making it the first to hit the market. Dexcom will have competition soon, however, with Abbott Laboratories planning to roll out its over-the-counter Lingo and Libre Rio CGMs in short order.

Insulet Corp.’s Omnipod 5 automated insulin delivery system has been cleared by the US FDA for the indication of type 2 diabetes, making it the first automated insulin delivery system cleared for both type 1 and type 2 diabetes management.

Medtronic plc hit a sweet spot with its diabetes devices, with the unit leading the company in growth in its first quarter 2025 results. Diabetes device sales grew 11.8% to $647 million for the quarter, an important boost that pushed total revenue up to $7.9 billion ($8.01 billion, adjusted), a 2.8% reported increase or 5.3% exchange rate impact. No other unit saw more than single-digit increases in sales.

Medtronic plc looks to establish a moat around its diabetes pump position with an exclusive global partnership with Abbott Laboratories to develop a Freestyle Libre-based CGM that works with Medtronic’s smart dosing devices and insulin pump.

Know Labs Inc.’s radiofrequency sensor accurately classified blood glucose levels more than 93% of the time, a study published in Diabetes Technology & Therapeutics found. That’s good news for people with diabetes, who may be able to use the non-invasive technology to avoid not just the needle sticks that used to be the hallmark of diabetes management, but even the microneedles used in current continuous glucose systems.

Roche Holdings AG received CE mark for its artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system, Accu-Chek Smartguide. The company said the solution addresses the unmet need around diabetes management and glycemic control as it offers critical predictions to people living with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
