The summary describes a digital therapeutic delivering cognitive behavioral therapy and providing self-reporting and notification features. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any adaptive or learning algorithms in the device description or performance studies.
Yes
The device is described as a "digital therapeutic device" and provides "cognitive behavioral therapy as a treatment" to aid in the management of type 2 diabetes.
No
The device is a digital therapeutic device intended to provide cognitive behavioral therapy to aid in the management of type 2 diabetes by targeting behavior. It focuses on helping users make behavioral modifications and self-report information, but it does not diagnose medical conditions.
Yes
The device description explicitly states that BT-001 is delivered "through an application on the patient's personal Android smartphone" and is "completely self-directed," indicating it is a software application running on a general-purpose computing platform without requiring dedicated medical device hardware.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs analyze specimens from the human body. The description of BT-001 clearly states it's a digital therapeutic device that delivers cognitive behavioral therapy through a smartphone application. It does not involve the analysis of any biological samples like blood, urine, or tissue.
- The intended use is behavioral modification. The device aims to help patients manage their type 2 diabetes by aiding in behavioral changes related to eating habits, nutrition, and exercise. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test.
- The device provides therapy, not diagnostic information. While it allows users to self-report data like blood glucose readings, its primary function is to deliver CBT, not to analyze these readings for diagnostic purposes.
Therefore, BT-001 falls under the category of a digital therapeutic device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Study Sample Size
The sample size was calculated assuming a two-sided, two-sample t-test would be used to compare the difference in mean change from baseline in HbA1c between the intervention and control arm assuming a common standard deviation for both groups. The assumed common standard deviation of 1.4% and a clinically significant difference in means of 0.4% were used to determine that a nominal sample size, with 90% power, was 259 subjects per treatment group. However, the Applicant also considered a 20% attrition rate and thus calculated a sample size of 324 subjects per group.
Pivotal Study Safety Results:
Better Therapeutics defined adverse events as follows:
- Any abnormal laboratory test result (e.g., hematology, clinical chemistry, or urinalysis) or . other abnormal safety assessment (e.g., electrocardiogram, radiological scan, vital sign
5
measurement), that worsens from baseline and is considered clinically significant in the medical and scientific judgement of the investigator
- . Exacerbation of a chronic or intermittent pre-existing condition, including either an increase in frequency and/or intensity of the condition
- New conditions that are identified or diagnosed after the study treatment was . administered, even if those conditions may have been present prior to the start of the study
- . Signs, symptoms, or the clinical sequelae of a suspected drug-drug interaction
- . Signs, symptoms, or the clinical sequelae of a suspected overdose of a concomitant medication. Overdose per se was not reported as an AE or serious adverse event (SAE) unless it was an intentional overdose taken with possible suicidal/self-harming intent. Such overdoses were to be reported regardless of sequelae.
- . "Lack of efficacy" or "failure of expected physiological action" per se were not to be reported as an AE or SAE. Such instances were captured in the efficacy assessments. However, the signs, symptoms, and/or clinical sequelae, resulting from lack of efficacy, were reported as an AE or SAE, if they fulfilled the definition of an AE or SAE
Better Therapeutics defined adverse events that occurred after the onboarding of the study as treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE).
