This example illustrates raw glucose levels based on plasma equivalents obtained from a subject's CGM. These values are used in the derivation of analysis endpoints. In this study, the sponsor captured the raw glucose levels for a 2-week baseline period at the start of the study, and a 2-week period at the end of the study. Only example rows of the data are shown below. Glucose values were typically measured every 5 minutes. The sponsor decided not to populate VISITNUM for these data. However, VISITNUM is included in the dataset because it is an expected variable.
This example uses ADaM BDS to model parameters for average glucose measurements using 3 specific time spans relative to the 2 study timepoints. It is not intended to illustrate every possible variable that might be included in datasets created for statistical analysis of CGM data, nor is it intended to serve as a recommendation for which time spans a sponsor should select when performing CGM base change from baseline analysis.
The example illustrates how some variables are derived from the glucose values downloaded from CGMs during a study. In this study, the sponsor was interested in comparing the change from the initial 2-week baseline period to the last 2-week post-baseline period at the end of the 52-week study. The 2-week periods are anchored by the LBDTC value chosen to anchor the period. There is an LBDTC value chosen to anchor the baseline period and and an LBDTC value chosen to anchor the week 52 period. This LBDTC value is used to determine the AEENDTM value used to define the analysis interval end; ASTDTM is derived by calculating the interval value described in PARAM prior to AENDTM.
The metadata and derivations presented are for illustrative purposes only. Refer to ADaM v2.1 and Version 1.1 of the ADaM Implementation Guide (ADaMIG) for required background about ADaM and the ADaM data structures.
This is an example ADCGM dataset. It is based on an SDTM LB dataset containing the observations per subject per parameter per visit per assessment.
The following is an example of the ADCGM metadata for the analysis of the change from baseline for the endpoints defined in the study protocol. A BDS structure was used. The BDS dataset contains 1 or more records per subject, per analysis parameter, per analysis timepoint.

PARAM | Parameter | text | Average Glucose (mg/dL) 24 Hours Prior to the End of the Analysis Interval Average Glucose (mg/dL) 24 to 20 Hours Prior to the End of the Analysis Interval Average Glucose (mg/dL) 2 Weeks Prior to the End of the Analysis Interval | Assigned |
PARAMCD | Parameter Code | text | AVGGL24H (= Average Glucose (mg/dL) 24 Hours Prior to the End of the Analysis Interval) AVGGL4H (= Average Glucose (mg/dL) 24 to 20 Hours Prior to the End of the Analysis Interval) AVGGL2W (= Average Glucose (mg/dL) 2 Weeks Prior to the End of the Analysis Interval) | Assigned |
PARAMN | Parameter (N) | num | 1 (= Average Glucose (mg/dL) 24 Hours Prior to the End of the Analysis Interval) 2 (= Average Glucose (mg/dL) 24 to 20 Hours Prior to the End of the Analysis Interval) 3 (= Average Glucose (mg/dL) 2 Weeks Prior to the End of the Analysis Interval) | Assigned |
AVISITN | Analysis Visit (N) | num | 0 (= Baseline) 52 (= Week 52) | Assigned |
AVISIT | Analysis Visit | text | Baseline Week 52 | Assigned: Set to "Baseline" for the PARAM values based on the baseline LBDTC value used to determine AENDTM and set to "Week 52" for the PARAM values based on the week 52 LBDTC value used to determine AENDTM. |
AVAL | Analysis Value | float | Derived: See Parameter-Level Metadata. | |
BASE | Baseline Value | float | Derived: Equals to AVAL when ABLFL="Y" retained across all observations within a given USUBJID/PARAMCD. | |
CHG | Change from Baseline | float | Derived: If AVAL and BASE are not missing and ABLFL NE "Y", then set to AVAL-BASE. | |
ABLFL | Baseline Record Flag | text | Y | Set to "Y" for the AVISIT="Baseline" value |
ASTDTM | Analysis Start Datetime | datetime | Derived: ASTDTM is the numeric equivalent of LBDTC at the end of the interval as indicated in the PARAM description, minus the assigned prior period. For PARAM description with "24 Hours Prior to the End of the Analysis Interval" and "24 to 20 Hours Prior to the End of the Analysis Interval", the interval will start 24 hours before the assigned endpoint (i.e., the numeric equivalent of LBDTC at the end of the interval minus 24 hours). | |
AENDTM | Analysis End Datetime | datetime | Derived: AENDTM is the numeric equivalent of LBDTC at the end of the interval as indicated in the PARAM description. When the PARAM description contains "24 Hours Prior to the End of the Analysis Interval" or "2 Weeks Prior to the End of the Analysis Interval", the numeric equivalent of LBDTC at the visit is used. If the PARAM description contains "24 to 20 Hours Prior to the End of the Analysis Interval", the numeric equivalent of LBDTC at the visit, minus 20 hours, is used. |

Variable Name | Where | Type | Codelist/Controlled Terms | Source/Derivation/Comment |
---|---|---|---|---|
AVAL | PARAMCD="AVGGL24" | float | AVAL is the average of the glucose measurements collected by the CGM during the last 24 hours prior to the assigned LBDTC datetime endpoint. The measurements fall entirely within the 24-hour period ending within 5 minutes of the analysis timepoint. This is calculated programatically based on the CGM values. | |
AVAL | PARAMCD="AVGGL4H" | float | AVAL is the average of the glucose measurements collected by the CGM device during the first 4 hours of the 24-hour period prior to the assigned LBDTC datetime endpoint (i.e., 24 hours to 20 hours prior to the endpoint). The glucose measurements fall entirely within the first 4 hours of the 24-hour period ending within 5 minutes of the analysis timepoint. This is calculated programatically based on the CGM values. | |
AVAL | PARAMCD="AVGGL2W" | float | AVAL is the average of the glucose measurements collected during the 2-week period prior to the assigned LBDTC datetime endpoint. The glucose measurements fall entirely within the 2 weeks period ending within 5 minutes of the analysis timepoint. This is calculated programatically based on the CGM values. |
