• Insulet (NasdaqGS:PODD) has begun its pivotal EVOLVE study of a fully closed loop automated insulin delivery system for people with type 2 diabetes.
• The first participant has been enrolled, marking an important step in testing this technology beyond the company’s existing Omnipod 5 offering.
• The study focuses on expanding automated insulin delivery to a large and currently underserved segment of the diabetes population.

For investors watching Insulet at a share price of $151.28, the EVOLVE study follows a challenging period for the stock, including a 25.7% decline over the past 30 days and a 46.5% decline year to date.
