Modular Med Inc Stock Price, News & Analysis

Modular Medical (NASDAQ:MODD) has announced the issuance of U.S. Divisional Patent Application No. 17/968,599, covering key aspects of its core pumping technology. This patent protects major features of the pumping mechanism in the FDA-cleared MODD1 product, the first patch pump designed for all adult 'almost-pumpers'. CEO Jeb Besser highlighted the significance of this patent in protecting the company's intellectual property and creating a barrier to entry.

The patent is part of Modular Medical's eight families of patents surrounding their pump technology, which the company considers important to its strategic value and market positioning. The MODD1 pump platform is characterized by its user-friendly, affordable design and novel, low-cost, and accurate insulin delivery technology. The company anticipates announcing further patent issuances in the future.

Modular Medical (NASDAQ:MODD) has finalized the protocol for a proof-of-concept study exploring the use of its MODD1 pump platform for delivering rapid-acting GLP-1 therapies. The study, set to begin in October 2024 with data expected in November 2024, aims to address issues faced by patients who discontinue long-acting GLP-1 formulations due to tolerability, inconsistent efficacy, and cost.

The company sees potential in using the MODD1 pump for personalized metabolic therapy, particularly for those who struggle with weekly GLP-1 injections. This application would require no significant changes to the MODD1 design. If successful, Modular Medical plans to partner with a drug manufacturer for clearance and marketing.

CEO Jeb Besser will discuss the program details in a Tribe Public Webinar on September 11, 2024. The company believes this new application could be as significant as its base insulin pump business, targeting a market of patients who cannot tolerate weekly therapies.

Modular Medical (Nasdaq: MODD) has announced a webinar event titled 'Diabetes, Obesity, GLP-1, & The MODD-1 Opportunity' featuring CEO Jeb Besser. The event, scheduled for September 11, 2024, will address critical health issues and market opportunities. Key points include:

• Over 3 million people in the US use daily insulin for diabetes management
• Only 20% of insulin-dependent patients currently use insulin pumps
• Obesity is linked to 30-53% of new diabetes cases annually in the US
• About 50% of patients prescribed GLP-1 drugs for weight loss discontinue within 12 weeks

The webinar aims to discuss these trends and Modular Medical's potential in the insulin pump technology market.

Modular Medical (NASDAQ:MODD), a development-stage insulin delivery technology company, announces CEO Jeb Besser's upcoming presentation at Tribe Public's Webinar on August 9, 2024. The event, titled 'Diabetes Care Innovator Modular Medical Takes Next Steps', will showcase the company's efforts in developing user-friendly and affordable insulin pump technology.

The webinar comes amid projections of significant growth in the global diabetes care market, expected to reach $35.8 billion by 2028 from $18.9 billion in 2023. The insulin pump segment alone is forecasted to grow from $5.26 billion to $21.65 billion by 2032. Modular Medical aims to capitalize on this growth with its MODD1 technology, designed to empower the diabetes community.

Modular Medical (NASDAQ:MODD) has initiated the transfer of its pilot line manufacturing operations to Phillips Medisize's facility in Queretaro, Mexico. This move is part of the company's transition from pre-commercial production to high-volume device manufacturing for its MODD1 Insulin Delivery System. The manufacturing transfer is occurring alongside the ongoing FDA 510(k) review process for the MODD1 system.

Phillips Medisize, a Molex company, will manufacture the MODD1 system in its Queretaro clean room, while the printed circuit board assembly will be produced in its Guadalajara electronics facility. The company expects to have the manufacturing operation validated and ready for human-use production early next year. Phillips Medisize has been important in providing manufacturing expertise and leveraging its global supplier base for the MODD1 system's development.

Modular Medical (NASDAQ:MODD) has announced a proof-of-concept study with Gubra A/S to explore the potential use of its MODD1 pump platform for delivering short-acting peptides as an alternative for patients who discontinue long-acting GLP-1 formulations. The study will use a high-fat, diet-induced obese (DIO) mouse model to determine if an FDA-approved, short-acting peptide delivered via pump can provide comparable glycemic control and weight loss with improved tolerability for people with type 2 diabetes and obesity.

This research aims to address the high discontinuation rates of GLP-1 drugs due to tolerability issues, cost, and inconsistent efficacy. Modular Medical believes that pump technology could simplify and improve dosing regimens for short-acting peptides, potentially offering a more personalized and tolerable solution for patients who struggle with long-acting GLP-1 therapies.
