Plain English summary of protocol
Background and study aims
The TensoTip ComboGlucometer (CoG) uses a painfree (non-invasive)method (by sending light with different wavelengths during a selected finger) to measure the sugar levels in the tissue of the finger. A second device, the MTX meter, uses the same technology to measure other body signals such as blood pressure, pulse, oxygen saturation, number of red blood cells, and others. In this study, the primary goal is to measure how close the CoG meter results are to commonly measured blood sugar values when the patient is eating a breakfast.
Who can participate?
People aged 18-80 years who are healthy or have type 1 or type 2 diabetes. People with HIV infection or hepatitis, people receiving dialysis, women who are breastfeeding or pregnant and people with scratches, scars, tattoos or skin conditions on the finger cannot take part.
What does the study involve?
Participants will eat breakfast at the trial centre. Measurements of blood sugar and other body signals will be taken at 30-minute intervals during the meal and for 3 hours after starting the meal using the CoG and MTX devices and other standard methods. For example, blood pressure will be tested with arm cuffs. After this meal experiment, the participants will be allowed to use the CoG device at home for blood sugar monitoring for 3 months. This gives them access to an unlimited number of pain-free blood sugar tests. Blood will be taken before and after the 3 months to investigate whether using a pain-free device at home can improve the overall well-being of the participants and their long-term blood sugar control.

| Scientific title | Evaluation of the CNOGA Combo glucometer and the MTX non-invasive body signaling device during a standardized meal test in patients with diabetes mellitus and in healthy subjects in comparison with point-of-care reference methods for the respective parameters |
| Study acronym | CNOGA MEAL STUDY |
| Study objectives | The purpose of this clinical study is to demonstrate the performance of both non-invasive CNOGA devices the TensorTip CoG measuring glucose and Hb A1c levels and the TensorTip MTX measuring different vascular biomarkers (blood pressure (systolic and diastolic) and SpO2, hemoglobin, peripheral pulse rate (PPR), pCO2, pO2, MAP, HCT, CO, pH, BV, peripheral pulse wave (PPW), graphs of BP variation and additional hemodynamic parameters and graphs), when operated according to its instructions for use. |

| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Accuracy of devices in measuring health-related parameters in people with diabetes mellitus and healthy people |
| Intervention | The participants are trained to use the CNOGA Comboglycometer or the MTX Multimarker devices and will calibrate them for 1 week at home with multiple comparative measurements with an invasive blood sugar meter. Thereafter, they come to the trial site in the morning after an overnight fast and will eat a standardized breakfast and take their usual medication. Blood sugar will be measured 11 times before and after the meal uptake for a total of 3 h with several blood sugar meters and a reference method (YSI 2300 Stat Plus). Participants can then leave the site. The participants will then be allowed to use the devices at home for a total of 3 months. Additional visits will occur after 6 weeks (interim) and 12 weeks (final). At these visits blood will be drawn for measurement of glycemic control (HbA1c). At the final vist, the patients will also complete a standardized questionnaire regarding device use. This will conclude the study. Total study duration for one participant: 14 weeks |

| Primary outcome measure | The primary outcome parameter is the mean observed difference between the non-invasive sugar measurements with the CNOGA ComboGlucometer and the reference method during the trial site visit. |
| Secondary outcome measures | 1. Mean observed difference between the invasive blood sugar measurement with the CNOGA device and the reference method during the trial site visit 2. Comparison of long-term sugar control (HbA1c) at baseline and after 3 months 3. Other body signals (blood pressure, pulse, tissue oxygenation and others) will be measured with the non-invasive MTX device and compared to clinical reference methods during the meal experiment |
