Tandem Diabetes Care has announced that its t:slim X2 insulin pump, featuring Control-IQ automated insulin delivery technology, received approval for use with the ultra-rapid-acting insulin, Lyumjev (insulin lispro-aabc injection) from Eli Lilly, in the European Union (EU).

This clearance follows the EU’s general authorisation of Lyumjev for insulin pump usage in 2020, which necessitates individual compatibility testing for each pump and AID system.

To achieve this compatibility, Tandem and Eli Lilly conducted clinical trials to demonstrate the benefits of using Lyumjev with the Control-IQ technology.

The collaboration between the two companies extends beyond the EU, as they aim to secure Lyumjev compatibility for the t:slim X2 pump in additional regions and for the Tandem Mobi pump.

Tandem Diabetes Care chief medical officer Dr Jordan Pinsker said: “High satisfaction and quality of life benefits were recently shown in a clinical study using Lyumjev with Control-IQ technology.

“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.”
