What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial tests the Omnipod M System for managing type 2 diabetes. Researchers aim to determine the safety and tolerability of different starting doses of insulin with this system. The Omnipod M System includes a small wearable pod and a controller, working alongside a continuous glucose monitor to help manage blood sugar levels. Individuals who have used insulin for at least three months and are open to trying a new device may be suitable for this study. Participants will use this system in an automated mode to manage their diabetes throughout the trial. As an unphased trial, this study offers a unique opportunity to explore innovative diabetes management technology.

Do I need to stop taking my current medications to join the trial?

The trial does not specify that you need to stop taking your current medications. However, your doses of other glucose-lowering and weight loss medications should be stable for at least 4 weeks before the study and remain stable during the study, unless adjusted by the investigator.

What prior data suggests that the Omnipod M System is safe for managing type 2 diabetes?

Research has shown that the Omnipod M System, when used with insulin, is generally safe for people with diabetes. Studies on similar systems, like the Omnipod 5, have found that adults with type 2 diabetes tolerate it well. Participants in these studies reported few serious side effects, with most issues being mild and related to insulin, such as low blood sugar.

The Omnipod M System includes safety checks to monitor insulin delivery, reducing risks while managing diabetes. Overall, testing has shown the system to be safe for people, with only minor side effects usually reported. ^{1 2 3 4 5}

Why are researchers excited about this trial?

Researchers are excited about the Omnipod M System for Type 2 Diabetes because it offers a novel approach to insulin delivery compared to traditional methods like multiple daily injections or insulin pens. Unlike these standard options, the Omnipod M System is a tubeless, wearable insulin pump that allows for continuous insulin delivery, which can improve blood glucose management and provide more flexibility and convenience for users. The trial is exploring different starting doses with this system, which could further optimize insulin therapy for individuals with Type 2 Diabetes, potentially enhancing treatment efficacy and patient satisfaction.

What evidence suggests that the Omnipod M System is effective for managing type 2 diabetes?

Research has shown that the Omnipod M System can help people with type 2 diabetes manage their blood sugar effectively. One study found that this system lowered HbA1c levels, indicating better blood sugar control. Another study demonstrated improvements in daily quality of life. The system automatically delivers insulin, simplifying the maintenance of healthy blood sugar levels. In this trial, participants will receive the Omnipod M System with either a higher or lower starting dose of insulin. For those with type 2 diabetes, the Omnipod M System appears promising for better overall diabetes management. ^{5 6 7 8 9}

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?

This trial is for adults with type 2 diabetes who can manage their condition using the Omnipod M System and a continuous glucose monitoring sensor. Participants must be able to complete up to 18 weeks in the study, including an optional extension phase.

Inclusion Criteria

I am between 18 and 75 years old.

I use insulin and my A1c is within the required range for my treatment type.

I have type 2 diabetes and have been on insulin for at least 3 months.

Exclusion Criteria

Arrhythmias or other cardiac conditions confirmed by ECG (within past 30 days) which in the opinion of the Investigator, would put the participant at an unacceptable safety risk

My heart condition is stable and I haven't had a heart attack or surgery in the last year.

Unable to tolerate adhesive tape or has any unresolved skin condition that could impact sensor or pump placement
