Dexcom TV Ads Begin for G6

Recently, we’ve noticed that Dexcom has started a TV campaign for its new G6 CGM system. Interestingly, the DTC campaign was initiated prior to the June 4th product launch. Although there were a few TV commercials for G5 Mobile, we expect the TV reach to be much broader for the G6 launch. In summary, the ad theme centers on knowledge being a superpower in T1DM that can lead to better glycemic management without being inconvenient. Below, FENIX summarizes the key messages and imagery in the new G6 commercials.

FENIX Analysis: SGLT2i HF CVOTs and Stopping Early Scenarios

Currently, there are multiple ongoing, label-enabling HF CVOTs in the SGLT2i class for Jardiance, Farxiga, and Zynquista (sotagliflozin), along with other studies exploring surrogate endpoints, biomarkers, and mechanisms of action. FENIX has created a tale-of-the-tape summary of the SGLT2i HF CVOTs along with a projected timeline for filings and launches. In summary, it is believed that AZ’s DAPA-HF CVOT has a high probability of stopping early for overwhelming efficacy and thus creating a priority review scenario to leap AZ ahead of BI/LLY by 6-12 months in this important LCM opportunity. Below is a summary of the rationale and hypothesis comparing the different development approaches by SGLT2i sponsors to improve clinical outcomes in HF patients.
