Insulet Has Strong Presence at the International ATTD Congress; Presents Positive Study Results for Its Omnipod Horizon™ Hybrid Closed-Loop System

Insulet Corporation (NASDAQ:PODD) (Insulet or the Company), the leader in tubeless insulin pump technology with its Omnipod^® Insulin Management System (Omnipod System), today announced promising new data for its Omnipod Horizon™ Automated Glucose Control System (Omnipod Horizon) hybrid closed-loop system, which will be presented at the 11th International Conference on Advanced Technologies & Treatments for Diabetes (ATTD) congress in Vienna, Austria. Two studies demonstrated that the Omnipod Horizon algorithm performed well in response to meal challenges and exercise in 24 adults with type 1 diabetes. Results showed strong blood glucose control with time in target range (70-180 mg/dL or 3.9-10.0 mmol/L) of approximately 75% and 85% with real-life challenges including high-fat meals and moderate intensity exercise. There was minimal hypoglycemia (<70 mg/dL or <3.9 mmol/L), 0.6% and 1.4%, respectively, over 54 hours of hybrid closed-loop control.^1,2 Additional longer-term studies are underway to evaluate the Omnipod Horizon algorithm under free-living conditions in patients of all ages with type 1 diabetes.
