Will a sticky patch stay put? study tests future pump design on kids
NCT ID NCT07675161
First seen Jun 30, 2026 · Last updated Aug 26, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study tests how well the adhesive parts of a future patch pump stick to the skin of children aged 7 to 17 who need insulin for diabetes. The device is a dummy—it has no electronics and just mimics the shape and weight of a real pump. Researchers will see if the patch stays attached for 7 days on different body spots.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If the adhesive works well, this could help develop a comfortable, wearable patch pump for children with diabetes.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage study focused only on adhesion, not on delivering insulin or improving blood sugar control. The final product may differ.

Inclusion Criteria: * Participants with insulin-requiring diabetes * Participants 7-17 years of age * Participant and parent/guardian/legally authorized representative are able and willing to sign informed consent/assent Exclusion Criteria: * Participants who report known skin sensitivity or allergy to polycarbonate or pressure-sensitive adhesives, e.g., medical device adhesives, band-aids, other acrylic-containing adhesives. * Participants with any skin condition in the area where device placement (e.g., irritation, rash, infection) could occur, per participant report. * Participants who are pregnant (per self-report) at initial screening. If a participant becomes pregnant during the study, the site will follow procedures for study withdrawal.
