Tandem t
slim X2 Insulin Pump Now Compatible with Lyumjev Ultra-rapid Acting Insulin in European Union
Tandem Diabetes Care, Inc. (NASDAQ: TNDM), a leading insulin delivery and diabetes technology company, today announced that its t:slim X2 insulin pump with Control-IQ automated insulin delivery (AID) technology is now cleared for use with Eli Lilly and Company’s Lyumjev (insulin lispro-aabc injection) ultra-rapid acting insulin in the European Union (EU).
“High satisfaction and quality of life benefits were recently shown in a clinical study using Lyumjev with Control-IQ technology,”1 said Jordan Pinsker, MD, Chief Medical Officer at Tandem Diabetes Care. “Ultra-rapid acting insulin is a popular choice for people living with diabetes due to its fast response time. We are proud to be able to offer Lyumjev compatibility with our t:slim X2 pump as part of an AID system in the EU, providing more flexibility for our customers in these countries.”
Lyumjev was authorized for general use in insulin pumps in the EU in 2020, but pump manufacturers are required to perform extensive testing to verify compatibility with individual insulin pumps and AID systems. Tandem and Lilly collaborated to support the clinical trial showing benefits of using Lyumjev with Control-IQ technology. The companies continue to work to secure Lyumjev compatibility for the t:slim X2 pump in other regions and to secure Lyumjev compatibility for the Tandem Mobi pump.
Please see Lyumjev Full Prescribing Information including Patient Prescribing Information. For additional questions, please access Lyumjev (previously Liumjev) | European Medicines Agency (EMA) (europa.eu).
The t:slim X2 pump is currently cleared for use with Humalog and Novolog/NovoRapid U-100 insulins globally, and Admelog/Insulin lispro Sanofi and Trurapi/Insulin aspart Sanofi U-100 insulins in Canada and selected EU countries.
