GATEWAY: Safety Evaluation of the MiniMed™ NMX8-AID System in Children and Adults Living With Diabetes

June 4, 2026 updated by: Medtronic MiniMed, Inc.
The purpose of this study is to check that a new insulin pump, called NMX8, is safe when used with a continuous glucose monitoring sensor called Disposable Sensor 5/Simplera Sync in people with diabetes. The study will include people with Type 1 diabetes who are 7-85 years old and people with Type 2 diabetes who are 18-85 years old. Participants will use their current therapy while also wearing the DS5/Simplera sensor for up to 40 days. During this time, they will complete a meal and exercise log. Participants will then be placed into one of three groups by chance and given the NMX8 pump to use for about 90 days. During this time, participants will bolus, not bolus, or bolus at will for meals and continue to complete a meal and exercise log depending on the group they are in. Once their part in the study is over, if participants like the pump and want to keep using it, they may be able to join a Continued Access Period to keep using the NMX8 pump.

  11. T2D: Is using non-insulin anti-hyperglycemic medication, other than metformin, GLP-1 /GIP containing medications (e.g., Mounjaro), or Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, in the 8 weeks prior to screening.

    1. Participants who have stopped using metformin, GLP-1/GIP or SGLT2 have done so at least 8 weeks prior to screening.
    2. Participants currently taking metformin, GLP-1/GIP or SGLT2 must be on a steady dose and remain on the same dose during study participation. Dose changes and reasons for changes will be documented throughout the study
  12. Is using sulfonylureas and meglitinides, e.g., repaglinide, in the 8 weeks prior to screening.
  13. Is using inhalable insulin in the 8 weeks prior to screening.
