Obesity is linked to 30% to 53% of new diabetes cases in the U.S. every year, per research in the Journal of the American Heart Association
About half of all patients prescribed a GLP-1 drug for weight loss discontinued after the first 12 weeks, with approximately 30% discontinuing in the first four weeks
Discover Modular Medical's Recently Announced Results from a Successful GLP-1 Proof of Concept Study
-Study showed more potent weight loss and blood glucose control with the addition of a mealtime bolus of a rapid acting GLP-1 to basal delivery
- Observed weight loss was 17% at 28 days, a 25% improvement over GLP-1 delivered as basal alone
-Findings suggest that pump delivery may be a viable approach to achieve GLP-1 weight and blood glucose benefits that are comparable with current treatment standards, either as initial treatment or for maintenance, while bringing personalized dosing flexibility
-Proof of Concept Study in Rapid Acting GLP-1 to commence in October 2024 with data expected in November 2024
-Pre-clinical study to explore use of MODD1 pump as a personalized delivery system for people who discontinue long-acting GLP-1 formulations
-CEO to discuss further details of the program in Tribe Public Webinar on Wednesday, September 11 at 8:30 a.m. Pacific time
