DexCom, Inc. (DXCM) CEO Terrance Gregg says the company recently penetrated the pediatric market. He says DexCom received a pediatric label expansion, allowing the company to promote its glucose monitors for pediatric patients as young as two.
“And we’ve never before actually called on that pediatric prescribing base, so that allowed our field sales force now to open up a new market,” Gregg says. “Going into 2014, our installed base of less than 18 years of age was about 8% to 10%, but of course that was off-label use by the prescribing population.”

Gregg says DexCom can now use on-label promotion within the pediatric community, and has already seen an uptick in use of its products by pediatric patients.
“And in fact, today, about 20% to 21% of our shipments are going to that pediatric community, which is a particularly strong community in adoption of this type of technology,” Gregg says.
