Omnipod® 5 Automated Insulin Delivery System in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

The study subjects will be separated into 2 groups, depending on their previous insulin therapy with approximately 50% of subjects from each group, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) naive.

Group A will complete a 2-week Standard Therapy Phase followed by 8 weeks of Omnipod 5 system use.

Group B will complete a 2-week Standard Therapy Phase followed by 10 weeks of Omnipod 5 system use.

Group A and Group B will have an optional 6-month extension of Omnipod 5 system use

About this study

Basal-Bolus - Group A (N=12)

  • 2 weeks standard therapy - using multiple daily injections (MDI) and Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) , followed by:
  • 4 weeks Omnipod 5 system use in Automated Mode with optional bolus, followed by:
  • 4 weeks Omnipod 5 system use in Automated Mode with simplified bolus
  • 6-month optional extension using Automated Mode

Basal - Group B (N=12)

  • 2 weeks standard therapy - using basal injection only and Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) , followed by:
  • 2 weeks Omnipod 5 system use in Manual Mode with Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) - with fixed basal rate, no bolus, followed by:
  • 4 weeks Omnipod 5 system use in Automated Mode with optional bolus, followed by:
  • If % time in range 70-180 mg/dL during Automated Mode is ≤50%, 4 weeks Omnipod 5 system use in Automated Mode with simplified bolus, OR
  • If % time in range 70-180 mg/dL during Automated Mode is >50%, 4 weeks Omnipod 5 system use in Automated Mode with optional bolus
  • 6-month optional extension using Automated Mode

  • Cardiac disease with functional status New York Heart Association Class III or IV or current or known history of coronary artery disease that is not stable with medical management, including unstable angina, or angina that prevents moderate exercise despite medical management, or a history of myocardial infarction, percutaneous coronary intervention, or coronary artery bypass grafting within the previous 12-months.
  • Pregnant or lactating, or is a woman of childbearing potential and not on acceptable form of birth control (acceptable includes abstinence, condoms, oral/injectable contraceptives, IUD, or implant)
  • Participation in another clinical study using an investigational drug or device other than the Omnipod 5 in the preceding 30-days or intends to participate during the study period
  • Unable to follow clinical protocol for the duration of the study or is otherwise deemed unacceptable to participate in the study per the investigator's clinical judgment

Treatment and study plan

Omnipod 5 Automated Insulin Delivery System

Device

The Omnipod 5 is a single hormone insulin delivery system intended for the management of diabetes in persons requiring insulin. Continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion may be delivered by user-defined settings (manual mode) or automatically adjusted in response to feedback from a continuous glucose monitor (CGM).

The Omnipod 5 can automatically increase insulin delivery based on sensor glucose values from the continuous glucose monitor (CGM) and can decrease or suspend delivery of insulin when the glucose value falls below or is predicted to fall below predefined threshold values.

The Omnipod 5 is designed to assist patients with diabetes in achieving glycemic targets set by their health care providers.
