Know Labs Receives IRB Approval to Begin Internal Clinical Trial of Non-Invasive Glucose Monitoring Technology Bio-RFID™

Know Labs, Inc. (OTCQB: KNWN), an emerging leader in non-invasive medical diagnostics, today announced it has received approval from an independent Institutional Review Board (IRB) for the protocol of its upcoming internal clinical trial. This brings the company one step closer to its FDA pre-submission meeting and to launching what it believes will be the first non-invasive glucose monitoring devices.

“Our team has been working diligently on getting ready for this trial,” said Phil Bosua, Know Labs CEO. “Testing our non-invasive technology with a larger population is a great opportunity to further validate the technology platform to identify and measure blood glucose levels accurately and non-invasively.”

The clinical trial will be performed at Know Labs’ new research and development laboratory in Seattle. Blood glucose readings for participants will be taken every five minutes with a Bio-RFID prototype, an Accu-Chek® fingerstick device, and a continuous glucose monitor (CGM), such as Dexcom® G6 or Abbott FreeStyle® Libre, if the participant is already prescribed a CGM, over a period of three to five hours. During the test, participants will drink a glucola drink with 75 grams of sugar, which should change participants’ blood glucose levels and provide Bio-RFID with the opportunity to accurately measure the changes.

“In our most recent tests, Bio-RFID achieved a 5.8% MARD (mean absolute relative difference, a measure of glucose monitoring accuracy) when compared with other FDA-cleared devices,” Bosua said. “Those tests were performed with a much smaller population, so kicking-off a trial with 200 participants allows us to confirm Bio-RFID’s accuracy at a statistically significant level and also allows us to expand the conditions in which the tests are being performed.”

Know Labs expects to begin the trial in the coming weeks and is currently recruiting participants through the company’s website. Participants must be between 18 and 65 years of age and located in the Seattle area. A previous diagnosis of diabetes is not a requirement to enroll in the trial.

The IRB is an FDA registered constituted group that has been formally designated to review and monitor biomedical research involving human subjects.
