In the type 2 study, 24 adults with type 2 diabetes and an HbA1c from 8% to 12% were evaluated.
Before the study, the population was using insulin injection therapy either through multiple daily injections or basal-only injections.
The study demonstrated significant HbA1c improvements (1.3%) and time in range improvements (4.6 hours per day) over the eight-week study.
Hypoglycemia was also reduced by four minutes per day in the multiple daily injection group, while it did not change in the basal-only group, which had already shown very low rates of hypoglycemia.
Insulet's type 1 data, which adds to existing data for the FDA-cleared Omnipod 5, covers clinical outcomes for children and adults with type 1 diabetes.
It will also cover the performance of Omnipod 5 with missed boluses and will later be presented at ATTD.
Price Action: PODD shares are trading 0.20% lower at $239.81 during the market session on the last check Wednesday.
