- Label expansion makes Omnipod 5 commercially available to 6
million people living with insulin-requiring type 2
diabetes
- Omnipod 5 is the first and only automated insulin delivery
(AID) system indicated for both type 1 and type 2 diabetes
Insulet Corporation (NASDAQ: PODD) (Insulet or the Company), the
global leader in tubeless insulin pump technology with its Omnipod®
brand of products, today announced its groundbreaking Omnipod 5
Automated Insulin Delivery System (Omnipod 5) is now indicated for
use by people with type 2 diabetes (ages 18 years and older) in the
U.S., making it the first and only AID system FDA-cleared for both
type 1 and type 2 diabetes management.
“Today’s announcement represents a significant milestone in
providing easy-to-use, patient-centric technology for the treatment
of type 2 diabetes,” said Jim Hollingshead, Insulet President and
Chief Executive Officer. “Insulet is paving the way for these
individuals to achieve better health outcomes while living with
greater confidence and freedom through the game-changing benefits
of tubeless Pod therapy. Omnipod 5 is setting a new standard in
diabetes management, and we are thrilled with the opportunity to
make a lasting impact on the insulin-requiring type 2 diabetes
community.”
There are over 30 million people living with type 2 diabetes in
the U.S.1, with approximately 6 million people who require insulin,
of which 2.5 million are using multiple daily injections (MDI)2.
Despite advances in medical therapy over the past 20 years, there
has been no significant change in the percentage of adults with
type 2 diabetes achieving recommended HbA1c targets3. Only a
quarter of individuals with type 2 diabetes on insulin are
achieving an HbA1c of 7.0% or less, and half of this population has
an HbA1c greater than 8.0%4. Despite guideline recommendations for
insulin treatment in advanced disease, insulin therapy is often
delayed or not appropriately intensified5.
Insulet recently presented data showing that Omnipod 5
significantly improves health outcomes while making life easier for
people with type 2 diabetes. The SECURE-T2D clinical study
demonstrated that compared to prior insulin therapy methods in
adults with type 2 diabetes, Omnipod 5 use resulted in considerable
reductions in HbA1c: 0.8% overall and 2.1% in those with prior
HbA1c 9.0% or higher6. Time in hyperglycemia and total daily
insulin dose were also reduced, and there was a 20% improvement in
time in range, increasing by 4.8 hours per day, without increasing
time in hypoglycemia. The study also demonstrated a clinically
meaningful improvement in diabetes distress.
The Omnipod 5 System simplifies diabetes management and leads to
improved results by eliminating the need for MDI and automatically
adjusting insulin delivery every 5 minutes using its advanced
SmartAdjust™ technology. As the #1 prescribed and #1 favorite pump7
in the U.S., the waterproof8, discreet, and wearable Omnipod 5 is
the first tubeless AID system that communicates with a continuous
glucose monitor, proactively correcting for highs and protecting
against lows, day and night 9,10. The system is easy to prescribe
through the pharmacy and widely covered by many insurance plans,
including Medicare Part D.
“I’ve seen first-hand how difficult it is for patients to reach
their targets with injections,” said Dr. Anne L. Peters, Director
of the University of Southern California Westside Center for
Diabetes. “Omnipod 5 makes it easier for people with type 2
diabetes to take their insulin and stay in range, leading to
remarkable improvements in clinical outcomes and overall quality of
life. I believe this innovative technology has the potential to
transform the lives of insulin-requiring people with type 2
diabetes.”
